Don't Try to Escape, My Wife! Chapter 1198 Just Trying to Tease Her

Nicole noticed the change in Samuel's gaze, and she immediately threw herself into his arms bashfully.
She whispered, "Don't … don't stare at me. It's embarrassing."

Samuel smiled with a sense of tenderness dawning in his eyes.

"My silly girl."

She was such a silly girl.

Endowed with favorable conditions, she would definitely have been happier, if she had fallen in love
with an ordinary man. However, she had chosen Samuel, a man with an embarrassing identity and
endless trivialities. Samuel was aware that the affections Nicole held for him was well worth treasuring.

This was not the first time Nicole had heard these three words from Samuel.

All along, everyone thought that she was silly and persistent, but if Samuel treated her badly, how could
she hold on to their relationship?

However tough the future would be, she was never afraid. Instead, what she truly feared was that
Samuel stopped loving her. As long as he remained faithful to her, she had nothing to fear, no matter
what was ahead of her.

Thinking of this, Nicole tightly hugged his waist and whispered, "Samuel, we will always be happy
together, right?"

"Sure. We will."

Samuel could feel Nicole's uneasiness.



Perhaps it was his current situation that unsettled Nicole, or perhaps it was the truth behind the Harper
Town that scared her. But no matter what it was, as long as it hindered their relationship, Samuel would
not allow it.

If the truth behind the Harper Town was the cause, he could just give up digging into it. Nobody and
nothing could force him to do what he was not willing to do. Never could those old stuff or Golden Bug
manipulate him.

A trace of coldness flashed in Samuel's eyes.

The positive answer put a smile on her face.

What she wanted from him had always been so simple.

Samuel said softly, "Why don't we go to the Valence City?"

"Valence? Where is it?"

Nicole looked up with a trace of doubt in her eyes.

Samuel smiled faintly, and then he lifted Nicole and put her down on his lap.

Nicole subconsciously put her arms around his neck, but she felt that this posture was a little flirtatious.

Before she could get off Samuel's lap, Samuel stopped her.

"Don't move. Any move is flirting. You know, I can't take it."

Nicole's face reddened.

"I, I didn't flirt with you. It's the posture's fault."



There was a hint of shyness in her voice, making Samuel even more delighted.

"You don't like it? I think it's good."

"Samuel, we have been married for years, you know. What if the children see us...?"

"This is our bedroom. The children won't break in."

Samuel loved what she was like right now.

After so many years, not only did her love for him remain the same as before, but even her shy
expression did not change much. She was always like a mimosa, making him involuntarily want to
tease her.

Nicole's face turned even redder.

"Well, that's still inappropriate. The children are waiting downstairs."

"Let them wait."

As soon as Samuel finished speaking, he suddenly kissed her and groped around in her mouth with his
tongue aggressively. An alluring expression appeared on his face. All of these gave Nicole a
completely new experience.

She wanted to push him away, but she failed. So she could only let Samuel take whatever he wanted.

Before Nicole was out of breath, Samuel finally stopped kissing.

"Breathe."

Samuel found it a little funny.



This woman was really...

He shook his head. The desire inside him was burning, but if he really made love with her now, Nicole
probably would be too embarrassed to see the children.

Samuel tried his best to suppress his desire and said in a hoarse voice, "You can go down first. I'll take
a shower."

"It's not good to have a cool shower in the morning."

Nicole could always think of something now when Samuel wanted to take a bath alone. She said it,
without realizing how much influence her words had on Samuel.

"What? Are you suggesting we should take a bath together?"

Hearing this, Nicole flushed.

"I didn't say that."

She jumped down from Samuel's lap, feeling a bit shy and happy.

They had been married for years, but Samuel still desired her, like a teenage boy. This filled Nicole with
happiness.

However, this was not the right time.

Seeing her like this, Samuel smiled and said, "Go down first. I'm fine. I promise I won't lock the door
this time. You can come in at any time."

Hearing this, Nicole was embarrassed to death.

"I don't mean that. I... I'll leave you alone."



Nicole stomped her feet and ran out, leaving Samuel chuckling.

He knew she didn't mean that.

He was just trying to tease her.

Samuel got up and went to the bathroom.

After Nicole went downstairs, her face was still a little red and hot. The children had packed their stuff
and were waiting in the living room.

Edwin looked thoughtful when seeing Nicole coming down.

"Nicole, come to the study. I have something to tell you."

Edwin's words stunned Nicole, and her thoughts stopped wandering.

"Okay."

Nicole nodded and followed him into the study.

Edwin frowned. She had no clue what he was thinking, and she didn't urge him.

Not long ago, Samuel questioned Edwin, which shocked her. They were family, so no matter how
Samuel thought of Edwin, she would always mediate and would never let anything unpleasant happen
between them.

"Grandpa, what is it?"

Nicole broke the silence.



She knew that Edwin had misgivings. Samuel had changed so much and didn't even call Edwin
Grandpa when meeting him.

Edwin paused for a moment and looked at Nicole with complex feelings in his eyes.

"Did something happen to Samuel? I feel he is not himself."

"It's no big deal. You know, he is suffering from neuralgia. Morgan came and treated him. She might
have said something. Don't take it personally. Samuel is still good to you."

Nicole made Morgan a scapegoat.

She didn't have any good impression of Morgan at all right now.

Morgan wanted to kill Sally and turned Samuel into what he was like now. Although she had saved
Samuel's life in some way, yet she did it for the Harper Town.

It was all about the scheme from the Harper Town.

Therefore, Nicole did not want to take it as a favor.

Hearing Nicole's words, Edwin squinted a little bit.

"Is Morgan from the Harper Town?"

Perhaps he didn't know or pay attention to it before, but now Edwin seemed to realize something.

Old as he was, he could feel the connections and think of other things as long as he caught a clue.
After all, he had been in a high position.

Nicole nodded without hiding anything.



If Edwin really wanted to confront Morgan, she wouldn't mind it. Regardless of the truth behind the
Harper Town, as long as she was happy with Samuel and the children, nothing else mattered.

Even if others called her selfish, she didn't care. The last thing she wanted right now was for Samuel to
interfere in the Harper Town issue.

Because of the Harper Town, Samuel had been trapped, and now they still wanted to use him to take
revenge.

No matter how unjustly those people were treated and how much resentment they had, they shouldn't
take advantage of Samuel.

How could they do this?

Nicole was aggrieved.

Edwin's face darkened slightly, and he seemed to think of something more cautiously.

"Why are the people from the Harper Town coming out again? Some of them are still alive?"

Nicole didn't know whether Edwin was muttering to himself or asking her questions. She said calmly,
"The housekeeper, Zama, in Samuel's home, was from the Harper Town. She was the one who caused
so many troubles. Now it's Morgan. Grandpa, what's wrong with the Harper Town?"

Nicole didn't mention Zama was Samuel's biological mother. This was a top secret in the Green family;
fortunately Laurel did not spread it. Right now, Nicole didn't want anyone to know that Samuel had the
bloodline of the Harper Town.

After all, no one was clear of the truth about the massacre of the Harper Town, and Nicole did not know
Edwin's attitude towards it.



This was the first time she had hidden something from Edwin, but in order to protect Samuel, she could
only do so.

Edwin suddenly looked up, as if he was shocked or thought of something. But he didn't say anything
and waved her off.

"Grandpa, are you alright?"

Nicole looked at Edwin worriedly.

She thought Edwin must have knew a lot about the truth behind the massacre.

For some reason, Nicole was a little depressed.

"I'm good. Take care of yourselves while traveling. I won't see you off on that day."

After he finished speaking, Nicole was told to leave the room. After a while, Edwin got dressed neatly
and went out of the house accompanied by Steve.

Nicole frowned slightly, feeling a surge of depression, as if something was about to happen.

What lay at the root of the depression was probably Edwin and Steve.

Right now, she was eager to get out of here and stay away from them.

When Samuel went downstairs, he saw Nicole looking at the gate thoughtfully. He wondered what she
was thinking about.

"What's the matter?"

After a bath, Samuel's entire body gave off a kind of fragrance mixed with a trace of coldness.



This coldness had been around since he came to himself this time. She couldn't tell if she liked it or not
and she just felt a little surprised.

"What was the smell?"

Nicole's words stunned Samuel a little.

"What smell? What smell do I have?"

He raised his arm and sniffed but smelled nothing strange.

Lucas, who had been silent, suddenly said, "It smells like gardenia, but it's not gardenia. I can't tell it,
but it smells good."

Hearing Lucas' words, Samuel frowned slightly.

Why couldn't he smell it?

Could it be the fragrance of Golden Bug?

Gardenia?

What did Golden Bug have to do with gardenia?

Samuel was a little puzzled, but before he could think it over, his phone suddenly rang.
