Don't Try to Escape, My Wife! novel Chapter 1633

“Who was it?”

“Cara!” Nicole was stunned as soon as Laurence said that the caller was Cara. She wanted to ask about what Cara said but then stopped herself to respect Laurence’s privacy.

However, Laurence said without Nicole having to ask. He explained, “Cara asked to meet with me at eleven o’clock tomorrow morning at Rose Café.”

Nicole frowned gently. It was Zayn’s wedding tomorrow and a national celebration. Why did Cara ask to meet Laurence at such a time?

“Do you want me to go with you?” Nicole asked.

“Okay.” Laurance’s agreement surprised Nicole.

Laurence seemed to notice Nicole’s surprise and said in resignation, “Although I kept convincing myself that Cara must have her reasons for doing these, I had also heard about the horrific manner in which the maid died. This disillusioned me.”

“Do you suspect that Cara was behind these?” Nicole wanted to hear what Laurence’s thoughts was.

Laurence looked into the distance and then said after a long pause, “I don’t know.” He felt that it was better that he said this.

Nicole knew how he felt for Cara. She heaved a sigh and then said, “Soon everything would be out in the open. Perhaps you’ll know tomorrow.”

“Hopefully. I hope that tomorrow will pass uneventfully.” This was everyone’s wish.

Nicole left Laurence’s room and returned home.

She felt lonely as Samuel was not home. Nicole pondered and felt that something was amiss but she could not put a finger on it. Then, her cell phone rang.

Nicole looked at her phone and it was an international call and encrypted. She immediately thought that it could be Samuel or Tim.

They had arrived so soon?

Nicole swiftly answered the call and the caller was Jacob, “Madam, save me, save me…” His voice was intermittent and then the call was cut off. Nicole tried to return the call but she could not get through. Why did Jacob call her?

Nicole started to frown.

Before Jacob left, he had a nasty quarrel with Nicole because of the child. Jacob should be embarrassed to contact Nicole but now that he was in trouble, he should call Samuel or someone above her. Why did he call her?

Nicole stood up and left.

Now that Samuel was not around and Zayn was busy with his wedding and banquet, he could only look for Davon.

Davon was surprised to see Nicole. They went to somewhere private before asking, “What’s the matter? What happened?”

“I just received a call from Jacob begging for help.”

Davon’s eyes narrowed and asked, “Are you sure the caller was Jacob?”

“I won’t mistake his voice,” Nicole said.

Nicole did not want to think of Cara in that manner, but the facts were lining up against her.

Davon frowned and asked, “What do you intend to do?”

“Inform the people from the army. Let them contact Samuel to rescue Jacob. I’ll pretend that I’m organizing an effort to rescue Jacob to bait them out of hiding.”

Davon understood immediately what Nicole meant and said, “You intend to use yourself as the bait and let the mastermind believe you had left. I’ll then observe and follow Laurence and see if the person following him was Cara. If it was, then I’ll capture her. Right?”

“Yes, so I’ll have to trouble you.” Nicole’s eyes sparkled at the plan.

Davon knew and said, “You, like Samuel, are beginning to learn how to plot. You must be careful.”

“No worries, I have people from Night Elf helping me in the shadows,” Nicole said to Davon’s displeasure.

“Don’t put too much faith in the Night Elf,” Davon warned.

“What do you mean?” Nicole asked doubtfully and became unsettled. Was Night Elf untrustworthy?

Davon said on seeing Nicole’s reaction, “Don’t forget that Cara had spent some time with Night Elf. Now, who knows what happened to Cara but she had repeatedly gone after Laurence. Could there be someone in Night Elf that cultivated her or a spy inside the team?”

Nicole understood immediately Davon’s concerns.
