Don't Try to Escape, My Wife!

Chapter 1698 She Shouldn’t Make Life Difficult for His Daughter

When Alison was arguing with Ebby, Clark had secretly removed the explosives from Alison’s body

without her noticing.

Clark always felt sorry towards this daughter, and his heart went out to her to especially after learning

of everything that Alison had endured in the past. There was not a moment when his heart could be at

ease.

Perhaps, this was God punishing the Close family. If he was given a choice again, he really hoped that

in the beginning, he would elope from this family with his wife and daughter. No matter how difficult and

frugal their life might be, at least his daughter won’t be left alone shouldering everything.

Clark looked at the anguished and torn eyes of Alison and whispered, “Alison, just do whatever you Belongs to © n0velDrama.Org.

want to. I will always support you.”

Alison’s body froze for a moment.

She could clearly feel the love in his father, and also the care and regrets from her mother. However,

she couldn’t be shaken up by such trivial feelings. She couldn’t let herself become soft.

No matter what they were trying to do, it couldn’t cover the blood on their hands.

Therefore, Alison didn’t look straight at Clark.

She was afraid that she would soften in her stance.

Clark watched his daughter’s forced determination and indifference and felt his heart bleed.

“You can leave now. I will talk to your grandpa and aunt. Don’t worry, we will come up with a solution for

what we owe to the country.”

“She can’t go! Brother, if she walks out of this house, the Close family will be ruined!”

Ebby became frantic.

However, Clark coldly stared at her with a gaze that was the same as when he used to be the master of

the Close family. He looked dignified.

“Come, send the missus away.”

After Clark finished saying that, a dozen people came in and surrounded the house.

Kelly’s face drastically transformed into a horrified expression.

“Are you out of your mind? You dare to use our men just for such a trivial matter?”

“Let me daughter go!”

Clark’s face was ghastly pale and he had a hideous expression.

Alison was stunned for a moment.

“You…”

“Go out now, your mother is out there. She’s not so healthy lately, you have to look after her for me.”

Clark spoke softly and gently to his daughter, his last traces of softness gone with that sentence.

Alison suddenly discovered that the explosives she strapped herself with was in Clark’s hand.

When did that happen?

She had tried to stay alert, but she didn’t realize any of Clark’s movements.

All of a sudden, Alison had a foreboding sense, a bad premonition.

She didn’t know where this source of unease came from, but when she lashed out to snatch that bomb

away, Clark dodged her action in one swift motion.

“Stop fooling around. This is dangerous for you kids to handle.”

Clark was still all smiles, but Alison’s eyes suddenly was stinging with bitterness.

“Dad, what are you planning to do?”

This was the first time in her life that she had called him dad sincerely.

Clark felt that his life was finally complete.

“What could I do? I won’t do anything. You must leave now.”

Alison was dragged away by his men.

Her eyes began to tear up.

Mrs. Close saw her daughter coming out from the house and she immediately went to hug her.

“You foolish girl, are you trying to break my heart? Let me see, are you hurt anywhere? Recently,

everyone in the family is coughing and having fever or flu. You shouldn’t come out if there’s nothing

urgent. Don’t get infected by it, I heard that it is very serious.”

Mrs. Close continued to babble.

Little did she know, this was not any ordinary flu or influenza.

Alison had already given Clark and her mother the antidote.

“Mum, what is dad…”

“A man has to do what he has to do. We shouldn’t interfere with such matters. Come, I’ll cook

something nice for you to taste.”

Mrs. Close held her hand, and her face was mellow and gentle.

Alison was reluctant to leave, but upon remembering the wounds on Mrs. Close’s body, her heart

began to go out to her mother.

From her side, there was no one who had come for her yet. Perhaps it was not time yet.

It was just fine. She could accompany her mother and eat a meal together. After that meal, it was

probably time for them to say goodbye.

Alison actually felt very terrible about this whole thing.

No matter what, this mother in front of her was the one who had given her life and raised her, and even

during the period she was not in her life, it was because her mother had some mental problems and

had tried to commit suicide.

If it were not for the grave sins committed by the Close family, she would really want to cherish this

chance and savour the reunion.

Alison felt terrible in her heart. She glanced at the house for the last time before leaving with Mrs.

Close.

The moment his daughter left, Clark’s face immediately darkened.

Kelly would never imagine himself getting held by the throat by his own son, and Ebby also never

thought that his aloof and distant brother was the one who had control over the best of the best in all of

the Close family.

“Brother, what are you trying to do? Are you going to get into a scuffle with us just because of your

daughter?”

“A scuffle? Do any of you even feel sorry for my daughter?”

Clark stared at Ebby and spoke with a cold snicker, “That girl there is my daughter. When she was

born, she was so tiny, I wonder you guys still remember about this. When Alison was gone, only we

were sad for losing her, and dad and you were scurrying around only caring about the Close family

without even taking in consideration our feelings. In your eyes, the Close family had just lost a mere

member, but for us, we felt that the world had ended. But now that Alison is back, besides your showy

momentary happiness, what else do you feel? You’re suspicious of her, trying to set her up and even

guard against her.”

When he reached this point, Clark couldn’t help but laugh a few times.

“They said that the Close family is a ruthless family. I don’t feel that way most of the time, but I feel that

the members of our family are one in heart. No matter what obstacles are in front of us, we will face it

together. However, why were we the only ones feeling sad for losing our daughter? You must think in

your heart that the family business is more important than my daughter, am I correct?”

“Clark, you’re getting a little extreme now. Putting aside the fact that she was raised by Chad, she was

never part of us in the Close family when she grew up. Her heart wouldn’t be the same as us.”

“So what? The Close family couldn’t even protect her, and you still expect her to align her heart with

ours?”

When he heard Kelly’s words, Clark immediately cut him off.

“Brother, what are you going to do to us and dad?”

Ebby didn’t have the same sentiments as her father. The only thing she cared about now was her

brother’s plan with these people surrounding them. To top things off, there was a bomb in his hand.

Clark glanced at Ebby.

Although she was a woman, she was always heartless and cruel. Otherwise, she wouldn’t be where

she was today.

Everything was too bad. She shouldn’t make life difficult for his daughter!

In Clark’s eyes, right and wrong didn’t matter. He didn’t understand the sense of justice that Alison was

babbling about either. He only knew that he wouldn’t be happy if her daughter was in pain, and he

would do anything to fulfil his daughter’s wishes.

At this moment, there was nothing else in the world that could compare to his daughter’s needs.

If his daughter had wanted it, he could even give up his life.

As he watched Ebby, old memories flashed back in his head. They were close siblings in the past, but

nothing could compare to the days he spent alongside Alison.

Clark suddenly laughed, “Actually we have been family for so long. It wouldn’t be too bad if we die

together, right?”
