Don't Try to Escape, My Wife!

"When did you come out?"

Tim subconsciously covered the phone with his hands.

When Nicole heard what Tim said, she knew that Maia was beside him.

She stopped talking.

Maia probably didn't expect Tim to turn round and see her. She was shocked and said awkwardly, "It's been a long time, so I come out. You haven't finished yet?"

"I'm done. But I need to have a videoconferencing later."

After saying that, Tim said on the phone, "Let's talk later. I'd like to bide my time."

"Alright."

Nicole hung up.

She wondered whether it was right to be suspicious of Maia or not. All of a sudden, she felt ill at heart.

In Nicole's mind, Maia was a simple person, who would go straight to the point with both her and Tim. Besides, Maia had once risked her life to save Tim. How could such a woman hide her teeth and approach them?

After hanging up, Tim put on a smile and asked Maia, "Are you done eating the apple?"

"What? Well, yes."

Maia paused for a moment before saying, and she looked somewhat absent-minded.

"I need to go to the bathroom. You can go back and wait for me."

"Alright."

Given Tim wanted to go to the bathroom, Maia had no choice but to return to the ward.

Tim slightly frowned, with a complicated feeling appeared in his eyes.

Nicole wouldn't lie to him.

By comparison, Tim preferred to believe Nicole. It wasn't because he disliked Maia. Since she had sacrificed her life to save him, Tim would always be grateful to her. However, Nicole's unfinished words aroused his suspicion.

After entering the bathroom, Tim marked Nicole's phone number as Chuck's.

He sat on the toilet and called Nicole back.

"What do you want to tell me about Maia?"

"It's not a big issue. I'm just curious. Do you know that Maia and Zama are from the same town?"

"What?"

Tim was surprised.

"Where did you hear that?"

"I met Maia's younger brother in Zama's town. His name is Trevin. According to him, everyone in the town knows medical skills and is able to protect themselves. With Trevin's help, I've recovered. I really appreciate him. However, I begin to wonder why Maia failed to protect her vital organ when Alexia asked others to hit her if she had medical knowledge."

Nicole paused for a moment before continuing, "Tim, I'm not suspicious of her. I just find it strange. Perhaps I think too much, and Maia is innocent. She's kind, pure and direct. I probably suffer from persecutory delusion. Forget it."
