Don't Try to Escape, My Wife!
Chapter 695: It's Not Her Happiness

Tim fell to the ground, his butt aching.

"Hey, watch out, man!"

He was instantly enraged. He jumped up and waned to teach that man a lesson.

"Tim, what are you doing?"

Right at this moment, a loud female voice came. Tim paused hearing that.

He turned around and saw Gabrielle and Nicole standing at the side looking at him. That voice came from Gabrielle.

Tim was confused.

Shouldn't they be here tomorrow?

Why were they here today?

And in a club?

Maia was especially happy when she saw Nicole. She smiled, ran over and said, "Lady Bush, what a surprise! I thought you wouldn't come here until tomorrow!"

Nicole smiled at her, then came to the man who was knocked down by Tim. She bowed apologetically to him.

"I'm sorry."

She gestured to make an apology.

Tim suddenly felt bitter.

"Nicole, I don't need you to apologize for me. It should be me who makes the apology if it's a must."

He immediately pulled Nicole behind him.

Gabrielle felt somehow helpless. She looked at Tim and Nicole. Then she helplessly smiled.

Nicole also felt helpless.

She pushed Tim away and gestured to that man, "Mr. Neil, I'm sorry. This is my friend. Anyway, nice to meet you."

With that, she extended her hand towards Neil.

Neil smiled and said, "It doesn't matter. I believe he didn't mean to hurt me. Since he is your friend, it's okay. Shall we talk in the private room?"

"Good."

Nicole instantly nodded and happily went to the private room with Neil and Gabrielle.

Tim seemed to have been ignored.

It didn't matter if it was someone else who ignored him. But the one was actually Nicole. He felt uncomfortable about being ignored by her. "Hey, I want to go too."

Tim said as he was about to step forward, but he was directly shut out by Nicole.

"Nicole, you..."

Tim really wanted to break in, but thinking of Nicole and Gabrielle's attitude towards that Neil, he tried to calm himself down. Perhaps they were talking about Nicole's voice?

Thinking of this, Tim finally fell quiet. However, Maia beside him felt somehow sorry seeing his depressed expression.

"Tim, what about me treating you to a drink?"

Maia said.

Tim looked at her and said, "You can't afford the wine I want."

This was the truth, but it hurt Maia.

"Beer is also alcohol. You can only drink Lafite?"

Tim was in a bad mood.

To be exact, it was because Nicole ignored him.

It is like this about liking a person. You might turn sad out of her unintentional action.

He didn't want to leave right now. But it didn't seem appropriate if he just stayed there waiting for her. Consequently, looking at Maia, Tim nodded.

"Alright, I'll give you a chance to treat me."

With that, he sat down in the hall.

Seeing that he was in a bad mood, she didn't care about his words knowing why he was depressed. She asked the waiter to deliver a dozen of beers and said to Tim, "Cheers!" "Can you drink it all in a mouthful?"

Tim looked at Maia directly. He didn't want to bully her, but he really wanted to drink much. Maybe only that way could allow him to forget his sadness.

Maia did not say anything and directly took a can of beer to gulp. Not long after, that beer can turned empty.

She flipped the can over and showed it to Tim. Her straightforward action aroused Tim's interest.

"Bravo! Come on!"

Tim also drank a can of beer in a mouthful.

They didn't say anything, just drinking. Soon, there were many empty beer cans on the table.

Maia burped and said uncomfortably, "I'm going to the bathroom."

"Be careful. Don't go to the wrong one."

Before Tim finished his instruction, Maia had already left.

He sat here alone and continued to drink.

He suddenly felt drinking was getting more and more boring.

At this moment, the door to the private room opened. Tim hurriedly looked up but saw that the person who came out was not Nicole, but Alexia. Alexia was also stunned.

She remembered the figure she had seen not long ago. She had wondered if it was Tim. Now she saw clearly that Tim was drinking, making her instantly happy.

"Mr. Tim, what a coincidence. Why are you here? Are you alone? Shall I drink with you?"

"Piss off!"

Tim was in such a bad mood that he didn't want to talk with her anymore.

This was not the first time Alexia had been driven away by Tim, but she didn't care at all. She still smiled and said, "Mr. Tim, don't be so heartless. Isn't it boring for you to drink alone? Let's drink together." As she spoke, she was going to serve beer for Tim.

Tim was already upset. Seeing Alexia so annoying, he instantly pushed her aside.

"Don't touch me with your dirty hands that had touched other men. I'm not that horny."

Alexia's face immediately turned pale upon hearing this.

Did he see it?

Alexia remembered seeing Tim's figure at the door of the private room. She comforted herself that Tim might be just passing by and he should not have seen her. Now, hearing Tim saying this, she bit her lower lip tightly. Tears immediately flowed down her cheeks.

"Mr. Tim, it's not what you think. Please listen to me."

"Why bother? Piss off! I'm sick of looking at you."

Alexia cried even louder hearing his merciless words.

At this moment, Nicole and Gabrielle opened the door and walked out.

"Nicole!"

Tim suddenly stood up and quickly walked in front of Nicole, subconsciously separating her from Neil.

Nicole was helpless.

She smiled apologetically at Neil and gestured, "Sorry to trouble you."

"Nothing. Let's talk next time."

Neil looked normal and calm, without any abnormal expression on his face. He smiled at Tim and left.

Alexia squinted her eyes when she saw Tim defended Nicole even more nervously than he did to Maia.

After Neil left, Tim suddenly turned around and grabbed onto Nicole's shoulder. He roared, "Nicole, why didn't you give me a call before you come here? Do you know how chaotic here is? What should I do if something happens to you? You're so ignorant!"

Alexia was suddenly stunned.

Nicole?

The woman Tim liked?

She got interested and looked at Nicole up and down.

Nicole was indeed very beautiful. She was even more beautiful than Alexia.

Instantly, Alexia became jealous and sensed danger.

Seeing that Tim going hysterias, Gabrielle pulled him away and said, "Tim, are you crazy? Nicole is here for something important."

"Of course I know there's something important. It's about signing the contract, right? I told you I could handle that. What are you doing here? Don't you know who Liam is? Why did you follow his order? Are you stupid?"

Tim felt upset when he thought of how Nicole ignored him and even abandoned him. His voice unconsciously became louder.

"What nonsense are you talking about? What contract? Nicole doesn't care about that at all. She came here because of Samuel's illness. Neil is my alumnus. He is an expert in treating Samuel's illness. We came to invite him to treat Samuel! You went too far!"

Gabrielle's words immediately stunned Tim.

She came here for Samuel?

She didn't come here for him, or the contract. Just for Samuel, she flew over instantly?

Tim suddenly felt as if someone had stabbed him in the chest. He felt severe heartache.

He had always known that the person Nicole loved was Samuel, but now that Samuel had become like this, he believed that he finally had a chance to win Nicole's heart.

Even if Nicole did not love him, at least there would not be Samuel around to disturb him.

He could give up everything and offend anyone for anyone. However, Nicole could also do the same for Samuel.

That feeling hurt, but it was his own doing.

Nicole once told him that she didn't love him. But he couldn't let his feelings go. Now, he could only watch Nicole being busy for Samuel's matter.

Tim suddenly took a few steps back and smiled bitterly.

"So you didn't come for me. I thought too much."

He returned to the table and picked up another beer can and gulped it down.

The wine flowed out from his mouth. It was extremely bitter, but his mood was thousands times more bitter.

When Maia returned, she happened to see this scene.

She suddenly felt Tim was pitiful.

"Lady Bush, are you leaving now? Where do you live? Shall we live together?"

As soon as Maia finished speaking, Tim whispered, "Maia, Lady Bush has other important matters to deal with. What are you doing here? Only you think your project is significant. But Lady Bush doesn't care about it at all."

Nicole looked at Tim's appearance and felt sorry.

She knew that she had hurt Tim, but what else could she do?

Her love had already been given to Samuel, and she could no longer love another man.

Tim was a good man, but he was not hers. It was not her happiness.

She wanted to say something, but Maia was a step ahead of her.

"Tim, don't say that. Lady Bush is lack of time and energy, but she also hopes that this project could be a success, right?"

Maia turned around and smiled at Nicole with prayer in her eyes.

She hoped Nicole could not be so cruel to Tim.

Her words stunned Nicole for a moment. Then, she smiled and nodded. She gestured, "Yes, I value this project a lot. It is because of you and Tim that I am relieved to do other things. Thank you very much for your efforts." "Come on. Don't say such fake things to comfort me. I'm not a child. Alright, you guys go do your things. Don't stop me from drinking. Maia, let's continue."

Tim said loudly, but Nicole still saw the bitterness in his eyes.

Fortunately, Maia was still there.

Nicole looked at Maia with great gratitude and left with Gabrielle.

None of them saw Alexia around. She silently watched all of this. A thoughtful look flashed through her face.
