Don't Try to Escape, My Wife!

The footsteps stopped at Nicole's bedroom door, but no one knocked or entered.

Nicole frowned slightly and quickly got up. She went straight to the door and abruptly opened it.

"Mrs. Green!"

It was Wendy.

Nicole was surprised to see her expression.

"Wendy? Why are you at my door? Is there anything wrong?"

"No, it's nothing big. It's just, just...."

Wendy stammered.

Nicole smelled something fishy.

"What exactly happened?"

"Mr. Vincent said he needed to rest, and no one was allowed to disturb him, but his phone was left in the living room. Someone has been calling him just now. I don't know if I should go in and wake him up, so I came to ask your opinion."

Wendy quickly finished her story and handed Vincent's phone to Nicole.

Nicole did not take it.

There was surveillance in this room.

Besides, how could Vincent be so stupid and leave his phone in the living room?

Phones were so important nowadays.

This was clearly a trap.

However, Wendy did not go to Vincent but her. Nicole could tell why.

Didn't Wendy work for Laurel?

It looked like Vincent was capable and even had Laurel's men within his grasp.

Nicole looked at Wendy and said coldly, "This is Mr. Vincent's phone. I can't decide. You should give it to him."

"But he said no one could disturb him."

Wendy looked particularly anxious and conflicted.

Nicole said indifferently, "There are priorities. Vincent is the president of Eternal Group. If anything important is delayed, neither of us will be able to shoulder the responsibility. It is better to expect Vincent's rage than to suffer heavy losses. Go."

Wendy was still a little nervous.

"Mrs. Green, why don't you go? You are Mr. Vincent's sister-in-law, so he won't make things difficult for you."

"Wendy, have you forgotten who you are? Don't push me around in this house."

Nicole's face darkened.

Wendy shivered. She was surprised by Nicole's sudden temper and couldn't help but swallow. "Mrs. Green, I'm not ordering you around. I'm just a little afraid of Mr. Vincent. He seems to be different recently. Sometimes when he is alone, the look in his eyes frightens me."

Nicole did not know if she was doing it on purpose or really trying to tell her something, but no matter what, she wouldn't go to Vincent.

This was clearly a trap set by Vincent. She must be stupid to step into it while knowing that.

"What nonsense? He has always been gentle and refined. Speak ill of him behind his back again and the old Mrs. Green will punish you. Hurry up and give the phone to him."

"Yes, yes, yes."
