"Olivia!"
Nicole quickly ran over and saw Olivia was at a loss. She cuddled herself in a corner like an
abandoned child.
She was no longer as tough as she used to be. Now she looked so fragile and pitiful.
Nicole hugged her tightly, but she pushed Nicole away. It was as if Olivia was in a sealed space. She
didn't listen, didn't look, didn't think, and didn't cry.
She was like a fragile porcelain doll, and tried to hold back her tears.
"Sorry, I'm late. Olivia, it's me. I'm Nicole!"
When Nicole wanted to get close to Olivia, Olivia suddenly opened her mouth and bit onto Nicole's
arm.
"Mrs. Green!"
"Don't come over! I'm fine!"
Nicole stopped Jacob from approaching and allowed Olivia to bite her to vent all uneasiness and fear.
A faint smell of blood rippled in Olivia's mouth, allowing her to regain her rationality temporarily.
She suddenly let go of Nicole.
"Are you feeling any better?"
Nicole's voice was very soft. She was afraid that she would frighten Olivia.
Her wrist was bleeding.
When Olivia finally realized that Nicole was here, she wailed.
"Nicole, I'm so scared! I've been calling you, but no one answered. I thought you abandoned me too.
That bastard left me here alone. The cold wind whistles and there are urns everywhere. I am totally
scared! I am nearly scared to death!"
Olivia cried so sadly that she even couldn't breathe.
Nicole's heart ached. She patted Olivia's back, but she also heard that Olivia said "that bastard".
Her eyes narrowed, and helped Olivia up from the ground after she vented her feelings.
Olivia's legs almost went numb. The itch made her grin, and she no longer looked tough.
Jacob hurriedly stepped forward to help.
Olivia had an impression of Jacob. When she saw Jacob, she was somewhat surprised. Then, she
asked in a low voice, "Is Samuel also here?"
"No, he was injured in order to save me. Now he is in the hospital."
Nicole said briefly.
Olivia was slightly stunned. She didn't seem to believe that Samuel would block the saber for Nicole.
However, Nicole had never lied to her.
It seemed that she should look at Samuel with new eyes.
Olivia did not say anything else and allowed Nicole to help her as she walked down step by step.
But there were too many stairs down there, and she couldn't walk down by herself.
Jacob still remembered how tough Olivia was when he first met her. He felt that Olivia was just a
woman on the outside, but in fact, she was a Tom boy.
Seeing Olivia's fragility unexpectedly, Jacob suddenly felt his heart softened, and an inexplicable pity
surged into his heart.
"I'll carry you," he said, "Mrs. Green hasn't had a good rest these past few days, and she can't carry
you. There are more than a hundred steps down here. I'm afraid you can't make it."
Jacob's words amazed Olivia, and she hesitated a little.
Nicole looked down and said, "Let Jacob help you. We really can't walk down on our own."
She knew how weak she was. If she brought Olivia with her, even if it was dark, they wouldn't be able
to get to the car.
Olivia nodded and whispered, "Sorry to trouble you."
"It's my pleasure. I'm a man. I have to do something that a man should do."
Jacob smiled and crouched down in front of Olivia.
This was the first time that Olivia had been carried by a man. For a moment, she felt a little shy.
Although she told herself that this was because that she had no choice, her face and even her neck
turned red.
When Nicole saw this, she was somewhat amused.
Olivia, who always acted like a Tom boy, now showed such a shy expression. It was too rare.
Olivia climbed onto Jacob's back.
Jacob suddenly felt that she was as light as a feather.
"Are you on a diet?"
Jacob asked.
"Sorry?"
Olivia was astounded before she realized what Jacob asked. She hurriedly shook her head and said,
"No. If you think I'm too heavy, you can put me down and I'll walk slowly."
"I mean, you're too light. There's no need for girls to lose weight. Health is the most important thing."
"Alright."
Olivia suddenly didn't know how to respond.
Nicole looked at them with a big smile and walked behind them.
Jacob didn't walk fast with Olivia on his back. Occasionally, he would check whether Nicole was
following them. He looked after two people, but he could handle that.
When they arrived at the foot of the mountain, they found the car had been towed away.
Jacob was caught by surprise. He put Olivia aside, took off his coat, and said to Olivia, "It's humid here.
You can sit on my coat. I will go to find the car. I guess it was dragged away by the security guards
here. I was in a hurry back then and didn't have time to find a parking space."
With that, he nodded to Nicole and quickly left.
Olivia was in a daze.
She only met him a few times. He was only a nodding acquaintance or even less than that. However,
he treated her so gently and well. This truly surprised her.
Seeing Olivia staring at Jacob's back, Nicole touched her arm, teasingly smiled, and asked, "Are you
interested in him?"
"What are you talking about? I just suddenly feel that not all the people around Samuel are bastards."
Olivia blushed again.
Nicole laughed and said, "Not all of them are bastards? Samuel is also not a bastard, okay?"
"Yes, yes, yes. Your Samuel is the best. He is so good that you hadn't forgotten him for eight years. I
really can't bear with you. Anyway, I'll look and see. Although he treats you well now, who knows what
will happen in the future?"
The thought of Samuel didn’t put Olivia into a good mood. After all, Nicole had suffered too much for
five years because of Samuel. Other people didn't know, but she, as Nicole's best friend, knew all
about it.
Nicole was touched. Olivia always tried to protect her. She leaned forward, wrapped Olivia's shoulders,
and said, "I know you are always good to me, but Samuel is nice to me. Five years ago, he didn't
realize his feelings for me. He is making up for it now."
"Whatever, just don't cry in front of me if something happens later. If what happened five years ago
repeats itself, and if Samuel makes you feel so miserable and sad again, I will definitely not let him off."
Olivia said helplessly.
In fact, she only hoped that Nicole would be happy.
She had thought that after Nicole left Samuel, Nicole would have a new life and a new relationship.
However, now that five years had passed, Nicole still loved Samuel deeply. What else could she say?
As her bestie, she could only support Nicole.
Seeing that Olivia had somewhat recovered from fear, Nicole asked, "Which bastard left you here?"
Speaking of this, Olivia was so angry that she wanted to kill the man.
"Tim! I will definitely kill him later!"
Olivia gritted her teeth.
It had been many years since she was so angry and scared. It was all because of Tim. He was hateful
to the extreme.
He was even more hateful than Samuel!
Olivia hated him so much that she wanted to eat his flesh, drink his blood, chop his bones to pieces
and feed them to the dogs!
Seeing Olivia like this, Nicole didn't dare to ask more.
"Why did Tim throw you here?"
"Don't interfere in the grudges between him and me. I know that you and Tim are friends, but Nicole, I
definitely will get even with him. You'd better not interfere in this, otherwise..."
"Alright, I won't interfere in, okay?"
Nicole rarely heard Olivia talking ruthlessly, and rarely saw Olivia being that angry. But she knew Olivia
well. Olivia wouldn't attack unless she was attacked; if she was attacked, she would certainly
counterattack.
Tim had indeed gone too far this time.
Nicole had planned to give Tim a warning, but now it seemed that she'd better not interfere in.
Tim did it on his own, and he should bear the consequences.
Jacob quickly drove the car over.
When Olivia saw Jacob back, she suddenly changed her expressions, and sat there quietly like a lady.
Nicole smiled teasingly and said, "Are you really into him? How about I be your matchmaker?"
"Stop talking nonsense. Jacob is a gentleman, so I shouldn't be like a lady. I also have good manners,
alright?"
Olivia said awkwardly.
Nicole laughed.
"Good manners? Are you sure?"
"Nicole!"
Olivia glared at Nicole depressingly. Nicole almost burst into laughter.
Jacob didn't know what they were talking about. He just pulled up and got out of the car. He said to
Nicole, "Mrs. Green, how about you sit on the passenger seat today?"
"I'll sit on the back seat. Olivia's legs are numb. It's more convenient for you to carry her to the
passenger seat. Don't worry about me."
Olivia felt shy again.
"It doesn't matter. I can sit in the back," said Olivia.
"Let me carry you."
Jacob did not wait for Olivia's answer, and directly bent down to carry her in his arms.
The smell of fragrant soap emanated from Jacob. It was faint and fresh.
Olivia felt her heart beating fast and she immediately blushed.
This was the first time she had been carried in a man's arms.
Seeing this, Nicole's lips curled up. It seemed that this accident wasn't that bad.
After they got into the car, Jacob considerately fastened the seat belt for Olivia. Seeing Nicole was on
the back seat, he started the car.
"Mrs. Green, where should we go? Should we send Miss Olivia home first? Or shall I send you back to
the hospital first?"
Jacob asked calmly.
Just as Olivia was about to answer, Nicole replied.
"Let's go to the hospital. Olivia stayed at the cemetery over a night. With such a low temperature, I am
not sure if she is alright. Let's drive to the hospital for a full-body check-up."
"Alright!"
Jacob directly drove toward the Central Hospital.
Olivia wanted to say something, but Nicole shook her head.
