At first, Samuel still tried to comfort Nicole. But she got consumed in her own grief. Samuel could not
help but sigh and let her cry.
The doctor also said that being depressed was not good for her after her miscarriage.
After crying for quite a while, Nicole finally calmed down.
Her shoulders trembled and her nose turned red, making her look so pitiful.
Samuel took the napkin and carefully wiped her tears. He said softly, "Vincent has returned. I've asked
him to take charge of the company. When you recover, I'll take you and our children on a trip. We can
stop caring about everything here. We can live our own lives."
Nicole was shocked.
"Really?"
"Of course. Vincent is very capable. He can handle the Night Elf Empire and the Eternal Group very
well at the same time. Besides, Mom will help him. It will be fine. Zoe has never traveled around for so
many years. Just think about our children. Let's take them out for a trip and see the world. And we can
relax too."
Samuel's words were too tempting.
This has been Nicole's dream.
When she married Samuel, she had hoped that Samuel would take her along with him when he went
abroad for business. Then she could travel around. Now that she heard that Samuel had left the
company to Samuel, she was very happy.
"Alright, I'll listen to you!"
"Then take good care of yourself. Audrey has come when you were unconscious. Then she went back
to make some food for you. And you should have some even if you have no appetite. I know that you
are in a bad mood. But for me and our kids, you should get better, okay?"
Samuel tucked her hair behind her ear. He looked so gentle, attracting Nicole to indulge in his
blandness.
If they could unload their burden and didn't care about anything, they would be able to travel around
like a loving and happy couple. How could she not yearn for such a day?
Nicole knew that everything Samuel did was for her. He wanted her to leave this sad place and forget
that unborn child.
This man had concealed his sorrow and tried his best to comfort her. She shouldn't drown in her
sadness.
That innocent child was also Samuel's kid!
"It's up to you!"
Nicole was like a docile little sheep now, but it made people take pity on her.
Samuel helped her lie down and whispered, "You should sleep for a while. You don't look well now. And
you need to rest more. I'll wake you up for dinner when Audrey comes."
"Will you leave?"
Nicole was like a helpless child.
Many women were like this. What they needed most at this time was the company of their husbands.
Samuel shook his head and said, "I'm not going anywhere. I'll stay here with you."
"Alright."
Nicole put her hand on Samuel's. She let him hold it tightly and then closed her eyes.
She was exhausted because of her injuries. Not long after, she fell asleep.
Samuel stayed by her side all the time.
In the evening, Audrey came over with some food, followed by Jason.
Jason was very anxious. But when he saw Samuel taking care of Nicole so carefully, he
subconsciously stopped. He was afraid that the sound of his wheelchair would wake Nicole up from her
sleep.
"Samuel, come out. We need to talk."
Jason whispered.
Samuel looked at Audrey and left Nicole to her. Then he got up and went out with Jason.
After leaving the ward, they stood beside the window of the corridor.
Jason lit a cigarette and handed it to Samuel.
Samuel shook his head and said, "Nicole is not feeling well. She can't take the smell of cigarette.
Thank you, but I don't smoke."
Hearing that, Jason put out his cigarette too.
"Is Nicole alright?"
Jason was more anxious than anyone else. He had some special feelings for Nicole, and he just
wanted to kill Zama now.
Samuel nodded and said, "She has calmed down, but she still needs to rest. I have agreed with Nicole
that when she gets better, I will take her and our kids out for a trip. It might be better for her to leave
this sad place."
Jason's hand shook slightly.
"Go out for a trip?"
"Yes, she has suffered too much and shouldered too many responsibilities for the Greens. She's a
gentle woman. She didn't even get prepared for all those things. Just because she loved me, she
married me and took over the duties. She did not know how dark the Greens are. She did not know that
the Greens would make her suffer so much. And she could not have endured all of this. Eight years
ago, I married her. We didn't have a honeymoon or live a sweet life. In the first three years, she gave
everything and got nothing in return. Then she almost died in a big fire. Now that she came back for me
after five years, she still hasn't lived the life she wanted. How many eight years do people have in their
lives? But Nicole has been together with me for eight years. What did I give her? Only our children. And
she brought them up alone. I didn't give her anything good. So, I'm going to take her out for a trip. We
can go anywhere she likes."
Samuel said in a normal voice, but Jason didn't know what to say.
"How long are you going to leave?"
"I don't know. Maybe one or two years, or even longer."
Samuel looked at the scenery in the distance. He realized that it had been a long time since he had
appreciated the scenery outside because of the Greens and the Eternal Group.
Whether it was a business trip or not, he always came and went in a hurry. Because he had been
alone, he never did any sightseeing during the journey.
Now when he thought that Nicole and their children would stay with him for the rest of his life, he felt
that nothing mattered to him.
Jason pondered for a moment and said, "So, we need to deal with Nicole's identity as soon as
possible."
"Haven't you started yet? I thought you had started it earlier."
Samuel was addicted to cigarettes, but he only took out a cigarette and smelled it. Then he just swirled
it between his fingers.
Jason shook his head and said, "There are some problems. We need to send the paternity test results
to Capital City for verification. Only then will they confirm that Nicole is a Don. However, this process
will take some time. You know, there are some things that we can't do."
"Nicole's birthday is coming."
Samuel's words surprised Jason again.
"Are you going to throw a birthday party for her?"
"No, I just want my family to celebrate it together. I was considering proposing to her on her birthday, so
that everyone in the Seapolis City would know that she is my wife. Whether in the past or in future, she
is my only partner. But you know, after this incident, she's too weak and could not take that on her
birthday. So, the proposal could only be postponed."
Samuel told Jason his idea.
Jason's eyes twinkled as he whispered, "You can do that after she gets well."
"Yeah, I think so. After we get married here, we'll take our kids and travel around. We can have a new
life of our own."
Jason gripped the handle of the wheelchair and whispered, "I know I shouldn't stop you. But Mrs. Don
just finds her granddaughter. Aren't you..."
"We will contact her through video calls."
Jason choked on Samuel's words.
Although he wanted to say something, he saw Samuel staring at him with his beautiful slanted eyes.
Then Jason did not dare to look back at him.
"Why are you looking at me like this?"
"I was just thinking about it. Should I call you Uncle Jason like Nicole?"
"No, you don't have to."
Jason found it so unpleasant and ear-piercing to hear that address from Samuel.
However, Samuel smiled and said, "No, I should call you that way. No matter what, we are a family
now. Uncle Jason, I will take good care of Nicole. You don't need to worry too much. You're in your
thirties. It's time to start a family with a woman. Because there are not many kids in your family, Mrs.
Don cares about Nicole so much. Anyway, you should consider having babies for Mrs. Don and your
family, right?"
These words turned Jason's expression to an ugly green.
Samuel knew his feelings for Nicole.
Jason knew that Nicole was his niece, so it was impossible for him to marry her. But that didn't mean
Samuel could force him to marry a random woman.
"Is that why you want to leave with Nicole?"
"No, I just want to take her out to relax. To be honest, Uncle Jason, Nicole doesn't know anything. She
has treated you as a friend, and now she treats you as an elder. You should know that family is the
most important thing to her. Otherwise, she wouldn't have risked her life for that plan. You're destined
to be her uncle. Since you can't get together with her, you may find your Mrs. Right from now on. We'll
leave soon. It will be a good result for you, Nicole, and the Dons."
Samuel was not that stupid to be so straightforward. But he knew that if he did not say anything, this
would be a wrenching pit in Jason's stomach for a long time.
Now Jason became a little awkward.
"I see. I will pay attention to my behavior."
"Don't take it as a mission and find a random woman. You know, the Dons' madam should be someone
you like."
Samuel patted Jason on the shoulder. This was all he could say. Jason should experience it himself.
The saddest thing must be that the girl he liked became his niece in the end.
Unfortunately, Jason was unable to end his one-sided love.
"I'm going back," Samuel whispered. "Nicole would be worried when she wakes up and doesn't see
me."
With that, Samuel turned around and left, leaving Jason in his wheelchair. Jason looked at the scenery
outside in a daze. Nobody knew what he was thinking.
When Samuel walked back, he saw a sneaky figure pressing himself against the door and peeking
inside.
