Don't Try to Escape, My Wife!

Chapter 728 Of Course They're Innocent

"Do you mean if I can find anyone who was on the mission with my parents, then they can be free of the charge?"

Maia clutched Tim's hand.

Now she was like a helpless child, placing all her hopes on him.

Tim's heart grew tender at the woman in front of him.

"So you know who was on the mission with your parents?"

"I don't know, but Uncle Jase may know something. I can ask him when we see him tonight."

"Alright."

Tim was struggling in his heart. Looking at Maia's excited face, he could not be sure if she was acting.

Perhaps that was a coincidence?

But this explanation could not even convince himself.

Tim sighed quietly and said, "I'll go outside for a cigarette."

"It's not good for you to smoke too much. Don't do it so often."

Maia's words struck Tim. He chuckled, "What? Now you're in charge of me?"

"Don't get me wrong. It's for your own good."

Maia flushed.

She couldn't tell what exactly her feelings were for Tim.

Tim stopped teasing her and stepped out.

He leaned against the window and lit a cigarette. Hardly smoking it, he just tucked it between his fingers and let it burn into ashes and fall on the ground.

With his mind drifting away, Tim stood there looking blank.

This was what Maia saw when she came out.

She felt that Tim was weird lately. Maybe there was something bothered him. But she was too timid to ask.

She wished it was about the Emerald King, Jase Wilson.

Maia vowed silently that she must make this transaction work, otherwise she would owe Tim too much.

Then, Maia returned to the ward.

After spending some time outside, Tim walked into the ward. He happened to see that Maia already got herself dressed.

He was slightly shocked by her outfit.

"I've never seen you in a skirt. You look pretty."

Maia felt a little shy.

"I don't think it's convenient to wear a skirt. But we're going to see Uncle Jase today, so a skirt would be better. What do you think? Do I look good?"

As she spoke, she showed him with a spin.

"You look good."

Tim smiled faintly.
