Nicole felt a little pain, but she did not stop Samuel.
She could tell that Samuel was extremely downcast now.
In her eyes, he was lofty and omnipotent, but now she realized that he was helpless like a child,
arousing the love of a mother in her.
It was completely different from her affection for Lucas. It was mixed with love, making her feel no
regrets.
"I said that I would not let you suffer any more grievances, but after you married me, you seemed to
suffer more than before. I am not a good husband. I failed to protect you. I really can't imagine what I
would do if you were sick in bed when I came back. I can't even protect my wife and children. Who am
I, Young Master Green? What kind of man am I? "
Right now, Samuel's self-blame was like a flood, almost drowning him.
He thought that he was a responsible man and endured all the things. However, after knowing what
happened to Nicole, he realized that he was nothing.
It was his incompetence that caused his beloved ones to be in danger again and again.
"Nicole, I'm sorry."
"Don't say that. You didn't do me wrong. It was all my choice. I chose you. I chose this kind of life. I
know what kind of hardship it takes to be your wife. I'm ready. So Samuel, don't blame yourself. You're
not a god, you're just an ordinary person. I know that you're doing everything you can to protect me and
our children. I told you, I'll go through hell with you. This is not a joke."
Hearing that, Samuel felt even sadder.
"Sometimes I really wish you could be like other women. I want you to rely on me and count on me.
You don't even know how distressed I am to see you so strong."
Samuel's hand holding Nicole trembled slightly.
He felt extremely gloomy and depressed at the thought of almost losing her.
"We're husband and wife. You love me, and I love you. Don't be like this. Others may think I'm bullying
you."
Nicole was comforting Samuel.
She did not know what Samuel had gone through, and what he had learned when she was asleep, but
it made her heart ache to see his sad face. It was so painful that she almost suffocated.
Samuel took a deep breath and said, "How lucky I am to have you as my wife."
"Idiot."
Nicole laughed.
As long as Samuel was by her side, no matter what happened, she would have no regrets.
She was such a one-track-minded person, and she loved the man she chose wholeheartedly.
"If I'm an idiot, what about you? If it were an ordinary woman, she would have run away long ago. Only
a little idiot like you would stay by my side and accompany me. Facing all the tricks and schemes
around me, you are still here without flinching."
"Stop talking. Get up. We should pick up our children from school. They know you're back today. If we
can pick them up together, they'll be very happy."
Nicole did not want Samuel to be immersed in self-blame.
She knew that Samuel loved her and felt guilty for what she suffered, but she never wanted him to be
guilty.
Hearing this, Samuel hurriedly looked at the time and asked, "What time do the children finish school?"
"Four o'clock! So there's not much time left, Mr. Green."
Nicole watched as Samuel jumped out of bed and went to the bathroom. He looked like a child.
She couldn't help but laugh.
Samuel seemed to have thought of something and quickly poked her head out of the bathroom and
said, "I'll go pick them up myself. Send me the address. You're not well, don't go out."
"It's fine. Gabrielle told me that I am fine now. And I promised the children to pick them up with you. I
can't let them down. I didn’t give them enough care during this period of time. I'm not a good mommy."
Samuel paused for a moment, and then whispered, "We can go together, but if you feel unwell, you
have to tell me."
"Alright, I'm not seriously ill. Don’t worry about me. I'm almost recovered, and I'm not as weak as you
think."
Nicole didn't want Samuel to worry about her so much, so she smiled and said indifferently.
However, the more she acted like this, the more uncomfortable Samuel felt.
"OK, it's up to you."
He looked at Nicole affectionately, then quickly washed and changed his clothes.
Nicole also got ready and the two of them quickly left the house.
Mrs. Green was happy to see that they were talking and laughing. If Vincent could get married, the
family would be perfect.
Thinking of Vincent, Mrs. Green was still reluctant to part with him.
She called Vincent and asked him to come back for a reunion dinner tonight.
At first, Vincent said he didn’t have time. But Mrs. Green spoke in a commanding tone, he agreed.
He could not see the pain and sadness in Mrs. Green's eyes.
Samuel drove to the kindergarten with Nicole.
Samuel looked at the grand kindergarten and smiled, "This must be Mom's idea."
"How do you know?"
Nicole was a little surprised.
Samuel smiled and said, "Mom sent me and Vincent to a noble school since we were young. She
thought that only noble school could match up with our nobility. Now that she sent her grandchildren
here, I'm not surprised at all."
Nicole smiled and said, "Mom has her own thoughts. Our children are not ordinary children. It's good to
be here."
"You always speak for mother. I know that you are on good terms. Let's go and pick up our son and
daughter."
Samuel stalled the car and pulled Nicole's hand into the kindergarten.
Zoe had a colorful day. Because she was as beautiful as a doll, the boys in the class liked to play with
her.
Lucas was somewhat annoyed.
He needed to keep an eye on those people who harbored ill intentions towards his sister, and even
fought with a boy for Zoe.
Lucas didn’t hit him hard. After all, if he did so, that boy might get more injuries.
But children who can study here were basically from rich families.
The boy Lucas beat up was called Johnny. His family was in the shipping business, and he had been
spoiled and pampered from childhood.
Even a fever or cold can make his parents nervous, let alone get injuries.
However, Lucas beat Johnny up. Johnny's parents came very early. After seeing their son’s injuries,
they asked Lucas to apologize with a firm attitude.
Lucas was stubborn and refused to apologize.
His head teacher, Miss Lynn, was very upset.
"Lucas, you hit him. It's your fault. Can you apologize to Johnny? You should make friends with your
classmates."
Miss Lynn did not know Lucas’ background. She only knew that those who came here to study were all
rich children. She could not afford to offend anyone. She only wanted Lucas to apologize before his
parents came, so that this matter could be over.
But Lucas said coldly, "I'm not wrong. He took off my sister's skirt. I should hit him hard. Do you still
want me to apologize?"
Hearing this, Johnny's mother was extremely angry.
"You’re talking nonsense! My son is well-bred. How could he take off your sister's skirt? Your sister
must have seduced my son, and now she's framing my son. Do you know who we are? Let me tell you,
my husband is not a man to be trifled with."
Seeing that Johnny's mother was angry, Miss Lynn went forward to comfort her.
"Johnny’s mother, don't argue with the child. It's inevitable for the children to fight and make trouble
together. I think they should settle the matter by themselves. Don't you think so?"
"Oh no! It is my son who got beaten up. Look, my son is injured badly."
Johnny's mother dragged Johnny over. His red eyes were truly ridiculous.
People usually avoided hitting others’ face. But this time Lucas all slapped Johnny in the face, and
even broke his skin at the corner of his mouth.
Johnny's face was black and blue. He was still in pain. Seeing Lucas, he couldn't help but shrink back.
At the thought of his mother being with him, he cried, "Mommy, hit him. My injuries hurt!"
Johnny's mother felt heartache when she saw her son crying.
"My dear son, Mommy will definitely seek justice for you."
"As a man, you can only cry and hide behind a woman. No wonder you are a dirty ruffian and lift other's
skirts."
Lucas’ mocking voice made Johnny cry loudly.
"Mommy, he scolded me!"
Johnny's mother was really angry now.
"Well, I don't need you to apologize. You beat my son. Today, I will teach you a lesson!"
As she spoke, she directly stretched out her arm and threw it towards Lucas’ face.
"Brother!"
Zoe was really frightened when Johnny took off her skirt. Then she was very happy to see Lucas beat
Johnny up, but when Johnny's mother came, her fierce look frightened Zoe again.
She could only hide behind Lucas and leave this matter to him. After all, she was still young and did not
know how she should deal with it.
But now that she saw that Johnny's mother was going to hit Lucas, Zoe directly ran to protect Lucas
without hesitation. She stretched out her small arm and brought Lucas behind her.
With a crack, Johnny's mother slapped Zoe's face.
Zoe suffered poor health since she was young. She never had been beaten like this. Therefore, she
was instantly knocked down by this slap, and her small body smashed into a nearby table. Chairs fell to
the ground.
"Zoe!"
"Johnny's mother!"
Lucas and Miss Lynn's expressions changed at the same time.
"Mommy, he scolded me!"
Johnny's mother was really angry now.
"Well, | don't need you to apologize. You beat my son. Today, | will teach you a lesson!"
As she spoke, she directly stretched out her arm and threw it towards Lucas’ face.

"Johnny's mother!"
Lucas and Miss Lynn's expressions changed at the same time.
