Don't Try to Escape, My Wife!

"No!"

Nicole suddenly woke up and was drenched in water. She was wet all over and felt freezing.

When she opened her eyes, she understood what had happened. The wounds on her back and arm hurt like hell with the cold water.

Nicole looked sullen.

"Why did you do this?"

"Why? I just wanted to wake you up. The sun is so bright. Who gave you the right to sleep in the day? Do you really think you are here to enjoy yourself?"

Laurel said coldly. Her malicious look would make one nauseated.

It occurred to Nicole that Petty was gone.

Laurel picked up her slightly startled look.

Laurel smiled proudly, "Who are you looking for? Petty? Think about it. She grew up in this house, and Samuel nurtured her with my consent. Now that she is against me, how do you think I will treat her?"

Nicole's heart skipped a beat.

"What did you do to her?"

She slept well because of Petty. But to her surprise, Laurel wouldn't even let Petty off.

It looked like Laurel intended to alienate her.

Everyone who had worked for her was replaced. Nicole knew she had been put in a disadvantageous position while sleeping.

Laurel was quick!

Nicole forced herself to calm down.

She wasn't in the mood to deal with Laurel because of the pain. She got out of bed to find clothes to change, but Laurel stopped her.

"Stop. Did I say you could change your clothes?"

"Are you crazy? Do you think we are still in the feudal society?"

Nicole truly believed there was something wrong with Laurel's head.

Laurel only had Samuel now. Wasn't she afraid Samuel would leave her when he found out what she had put Nicole through?

Laurel flushed slightly.

"You cursed me?"

"If calling you crazy counts, then I guess I did."
