Don't Try to Escape, My Wife!

"So it was you! No wonder he survived! So you've been on guard against me since then?"

Martha's words irritated Audrey.

"How come you talk about it as if you've done nothing wrong? Aren't you ashamed of yourself?"

"Ashamed? Why should I be ashamed of myself? He has never treated me like his daughter after he retired from the military service. Although he hasn't hurt me, I remember the way he looked at me. I've once hoped that he could give me a little bit of warmth, but he didn't even hug me once. He didn't even let me take his surname, Shaw. Do you know how cruel that meant to me then?"

Martha said angrily. It seemed that after so many years, she still couldn't let it go.

Audrey was so furious that she laughed.

"If you thought that way as a child, it would be understandable because you were still too young. But if you keep thinking that way until today, you will end up nowhere your whole life. I don't want to waste more time on you. To put it simply, you deserve such an ending. You will be punished by the law."

"You think you can stop me? If I mobilize my resources, I'm afraid you won't be able to hide me inside your home."

Martha was quite confident in the situation.

Audrey sneered, "Maybe you are powerful, but have you ever heard of the saying that the good shall prevail over the evil? How long do you think you can still get away with it? I've promised mom that as long as you don't do anything illegal, I won't hurt you. However, if you collude with your biological father to commit crimes, I won't just sit watching. Did you forget my job before?"

"You retired, didn't you?"

"Yes, I did. But I still have connections, consciences, and loyalty to my country! I am a member of the Shaw family. My father has served the country diligently, and I will not disappoint him. He called me and told me everything before you guys came here. Martha, you really have great patience. You've been hiding in the Seapolis City for so many years to protect your father, the terrorist, haven't you? You can sacrifice your marriage, your son, and even your life for him, but you know what? Your father didn't want to take you abroad with him. Laurel contacted not only you, but also your father the moment she was released. Right now, she is rushing to the airport, because your father told her so. But he didn't even leave you a message, did he? Your father has abandoned you and left you here. Your people outside won't get any more help from him. You can't get out now."

Martha's face immediately turned pale as she heard Audrey's words.

"Nonsense! That's impossible!"

"Nonsense? Do you really think that's nonsense? When you removed mom's breathing tube for your father, did you ever think that one day he would abandon you? No. To be exact, he has never taken you as his daughter. He was just using you as a scapegoat."

"Stop it! I don't believe you! I don't believe any word of you!"

Martha immediately got emotional.

She struggled hard. Just when Nicole thought that Martha could not get away with the rope, she suddenly untied the ropes and even rushed towards Nicole in no time.

"Nicole, be careful!"

Audrey's heart was in her mouth.

Although Nicole was surprised by Martha's agility and speed, she managed to counterattack and defend herself subconsciously. She quickly retreated after fighting hand to hand with Martha shortly.
