Don't Try to Escape, My Wife!

"Be quick. Hide in the cabinet."

Yanice's words surprised Nicole and Samuel a bit, but they thought Yanice might not have time to explain to them. For safety, Samuel quickly pulled Nicole into the cabinet.

Samuel didn't know why, but he trusted Yanice.

Inside the cabinet, Nicole was held in Samuel's arms. They even could feel each other's warm breath. It was a bit uncomfortable for them to stay in such a narrow space as Samuel was tall and strong, but it was a new experience for Nicole.

The sound of the chains got louder. Nicole and Samuel could hear it clearly even in the cabinet. They exchanged glances and heard Yanice's cold voice from outside.

"Do you want to see me starve to death? It takes much longer to deliver food. Why? Is Leo getting impatient with me now?"

Although Nicole did not know who Yanice was talking to, she knew there was anger in Yanice's tone.

Suddenly, it was silent, and then they heard a deep male voice.

"Miss Yanice, you must be joking. Our king cares about you very much."

"Really?"

Yanice snorted. She looked at what was in the man's hand and sneered, "The snowstorm is coming soon. The king only gave me that to keep warm. Is he going to see me freeze to death? Since this is the depopulated zone, no heating is provided. If you don't prepare some coal for me, how can I survive in such a cold winter?"

The man said respectfully, "Miss Yanice, king has something big to deal with recently. He said that you need to be patient these days and he will give you coal and clothes."

"Be patient these days? I' afraid he wants me to die. He hasn't gotten anything valuable from me for so many years, so he gave up on me and left me to rot, right?"

Yanice was extremely angry, but the man didn't change his attitude. He still said respectfully, "Miss Yanice, you must be kidding. Your identity is the most valuable to us. Our king won't let you die. But he heard that some strangers came to the depopulated zone, and he hopes that Miss Yanice won't contact any outsiders."

"That is really funny. You call this place the depopulated zone, so how could any man enter this place? Are they ghosts?"

Yanice snorted. Obviously, she didn't intend to respect the man.

The man looked around. As he saw three steaming teacups, he frowned.

"Miss Yanice, you have guests here?"

"Guests? You don't let anyone in. How can I have guests?"

Yanice also noticed the teacups on the table, but her expression did not change, which confused the man.

"Miss Yanice, these three teacups are..."

"I'm too lonely by myself, so I imagine someone coming to visit me. Can't I make tea for them and have a chat?"

Yanice said as if it was true.

The man didn't believe it. He wanted to go into Yanice's bedroom to check, but Yanice stood in front of him and snapped, "How dare you! Who are you to enter my room?"

"I dare not, but if you hide someone else here, I will not be able to explain to the king. Therefore, Miss Yanice, you'd better move aside and let me take a look. It's right for both of us."
