Chapter 81
Mr. Sallow's Sinful Wife by Maisie Chasey
Chapter 81 She Was the Bystander âWhere are you?â
As expected, Nicholas shouted.
A triumphant smile appeared on Madellineâs lips. She smiled and hung up the phone without answering.
Nicholas grabbed his mobile phone and was about to leave. Thinking of Nancy, he returned to the room.
A few minutes later, Nancy came out of the bathroom.
Seeing her, Nicholas immediately handed her clothes. âChange your clothes. Quickly âHuh? Iâm going to bed soon. Why should I change into these clothes?â Nancy was puzzled.
Change your clothes first. Itâs urgent. We have to go to somewhere.â
After sitting in the car, Nicholas said, âNancy, I must tell you the truth. Madelline may be in trouble.â
âI know you donât want me to have any contact with her. I donât want to lie to you, but I canât leave her alone.â
âEver since her leg is disabled, no one in the Phillips cares about her. If I ignore her too, she may not survive. Besides, she sounds weird just now. I have to go there.â
Nicholas took Nancyâs hand and put it in his palm, âNancy, I donât want to lie to you, so can you go with me?â?
Nancyâs face was hidden in a dark corner of the car. Hence, Nicholas couldnât see the expression on her face.
Suddenly, Nancy said, âWhat if I donât want to go?
âIf you donât want to go, then....
Before Nicholas finished his sentence, Nancy suddenly reached out to cover his mouth and shook her head. âNo, donât say it. I donât want to know your answer.â
Yes, she was scared.
She admitted she was a coward. She admitted she was weak.
Their relationship was finally a bit closer after such a long time. Nancy didnât want their 1/5 relationship to reach a deadlock again because of this incident.
At this moment, the answer was no longer matter.
Nancy knew she didnât want to push Nicholas to Madelline, so she was willing to accompany him.
âIâll go with you,â she said.
Nicholas hugged her tight. His voice was almost trembling. âThank you, Nancy. Thank you for your tolerance and understanding Nancy wanted to say âYou donât have to thank me. Iâm not tolerant at all. Iâm very possessive. Iâm so possessive that I donât want to share you with any woman. I agreed, not because of tolerance, but because I love you too much and Iâm scared of losing you.â
But she didnât in the end.
They quickly arrived at Madellineâs location.
Nancy had a horrible feeling when she walked into the restaurant.
The private roomâs door was closed when they arrived.
Nicholas opened the door and walked in. He saw Madelline lying on the floor. She was moaning and struggling in pain.
The wheelchair overturned, and she fell to the ground. Her hair was messy. She tried hard to stretch out her hands and get up but failed.
Fresh blood pooled beneath her body.
Madellineâs stomach seemed to have been stabbed. The knife had been pulled out and fell on the ground. Fresh blood was still dripping on it.
Blood flowed out from the wound in her belly.
It flowed like crazy.
The room was filled with a strong smell of blood.
Looking at the scene, Nancy was shocked.
When Nancy was about to speak, Nicholas had already let go of her hand and ran towards Madelline.
âMadelline, are you okay?â
âWhat happened? Why are you bleeding so much?â
Nicholas asked anxiously while holding Madelline into his arms.
2/5 âCall the ambulance quickly!â He looked at Nancy and ordered loudly.
Nancy was still shocked. She had thought about many scenarios, but she never expected this.
She froze for a moment.
Seeing Nancy standing still, Nicholas suddenly shouted. âWhy are you still standing there? Call the ambulance!â
âI...â Nancy felt suffocated when she saw Nicholas, But she quickly replied, âIâll call right away.
After calling the ambulance, Nancy lowered her hand and stared blankly at everything in front of her.
Nicholas hugged Madelline tightly as if he was holding his dearest lover. He kept talking with his gentle voice. It was unbelievable.
He held Madellineâs hand with one hand.
The other hand held Madellineâs face and stroked it carefully.
Nancy couldnât help but sneer when she looked at it.
She felt so lonely.
At this moment, they were husband and wife, and Nancy was just a stranger, a bystander.
Now, there is only Madelline in Nicholasâ eyes. He even didnât notice Nancyâs presence at all.
He might have forgotten Nancy completely and only have Madelline in his heart now.
Just now, Nancy was just someone who could help call the ambulance. Thatâs it.
Nancy looked at the loving couple in front of her.
She even saw Madelline groaning in pain while casting a proud and provocative look at her.
How could she not care?
How would she not feel sad?
But can she go there and snatch Nicholas?
A ridiculous idea suddenly flashed through Nancyâs mind. Nancy even hoped that she was the one who was injured instead of Madelline.
3/5 If Nancy was seriously injured, would Nicholas act like this now? Would he be so scared and treat her tenderly?
Would he?
She didnât know.
âNicholas, you... youâre finally here. I thought I would never see you again.â
âIâm sorry, Nicholas. I made you sad.â Madelline stretched out her hand and tried hard to touch Nicholasâ face.
However, when Madelline was about to touch Nicholasâ face, her hand suddenly fell.
Nicholas immediately grabbed her hand and brought it to touch his face. âDonât be foolish! Say no more. As long as Iâm here, youâll be fine.â
âReally? Nicholas, tell me, am I... gonna...?â
Nicholas immediately stopped her before she finished her words. âMadelline, you gonna be fine At this time, the ambulance came.
Nicholas immediately picked up Madelline and rushed outside.
Nancyâs mind was blank. She didnât realize that she was standing at the door.
When Nicholas rushed over, he saw Nancy was blocking the way and yelled, âGet out of the way! Get out of the way quickly!â
Nancy moved away dully and watched Nicholas rush out with Madelline in his arms.
Nicholas wouldnât know that he had knocked Nancy to the ground, and her knees hit the tableâs corner because he rushed over so fast.
Suddenly, the pain spread along her bones and throughout her limbs.
How could it not hurt when the hard and sharp corner hit her bones?
Her knees were instantly bruised and bleeding.
The moment she looked up, she immediately saw Nicholas.
He paused with Madelline in his arms while looking at Nancy.
Nancy also looked at him. Although it hurt, she expected something deep in her heart.
She wanted to see if he would stop for her..
