Nicole suddenly drew back, but Samuel wrapped his arms around her waist.
His voice was hoarse and he whispered, "Don't worry about it."
"But I'm afraid it is Mom that needs us."
Nicole was a little embarrassed.
"Ignore it."
As he spoke, Samuel was about to continue, but there were sharp knocks on the door.
Mr. Green, I have something urgent."
Jacob's voice came through the door.
This time, Nicole pushed Samuel away.
It almost happened. Samuel didn't look quite good. He angrily went straight to the door and opened it.
He grabbed Jacob's collar and said fiercely, "You'd better report something important. Otherwise, I'll kill
you."
Seeing Samuel's angry expression, Jacob was slightly confused. He saw Nicole subconsciously tidy up
her collar and suddenly realized something.
"Sorry, Mr. Green."
"Say it."
Samuel wanted to kill Jacob now.
Didn't Jacob know that a man who was interrupted at this time would have unsmooth flow of blood and
lose his temper easily?
Jacob did not dare to delay. He hurriedly handed a report to Samuel and said, "Mr. Blair sent an urgent
document and told you to read it carefully."
"What documents are urgent?"
Samuel took the document and turned to look at Nicole. "You rest first. Jacob and I will go to the study
to deal with some things. What do you want to eat? I will make it for you at noon."
Nicole felt extremely happy to have a man with hundreds of millions cook for her.
"I'm not hungry yet. You go ahead. I'm a little sleepy, so I'd like some sleep."
"Alright. Tell me what you want to eat whenever."
Samuel's gaze was gentle, and he no longer wore a cold expression.
"Alright. But don't you need to go to the company? Didn't you seize the power of Vincent? Doesn't the
company need you?"
"I don't need to go back for the time being. Besides, Jacob can handle it."
Jacob was silent.
He hadn't rested since he was called back.
"Mr. Green, I'm going to get married."
Jacob couldn't help but complain.
Samuel said coldly, "Get married? You don't have to work after you get married?"
Jacob was lost for words.
Jacob knew that Samuel was taking revenge for being interrupted just now. However, Jacob just
happened to come over. It really wasn't his fault.
Jacob, with a sad expression, was dragged to the study by Samuel.
Seeing them like this, Nicole couldn't help but laugh. She wanted to call Olivia, but she didn't realize
that her phone was not by her side until she tried to find it.
Perhaps it was Samuel who put it away.
As Nicole thought this, she leaned against the bed and fell asleep. She planned to call Olivia when
Samuel came back.
After Samuel and Jacob arrived at the study, Jacob subconsciously closed the door.
"What's so important?"
Samuel hadn't calmed down.
Jacob whispered, "It's about Mr. Vincent."
Samuel's expression suddenly changed.
He took the document and read it. His expression became even more solemn.
"What's wrong, Mr. Green?"
Jacob hadn't read the document, so he didn't know what was in it, but seeing Samuel's expression,
Jacob couldn't help but ask.
Samuel whispered, "Blair said that the last place where Vincent appeared was in a small village in
Bordeaux, and Vincent came out from that village later. In other words, Vincent was replaced by
someone who looked the same as him before we found out about his death."
"How is that possible? Where is Mr. Vincent?"
"Where is the real Vincent? Is he alive or dead? What's going on with Vincent who is fake?"
Samuel could not explain it clearly.
"Do the staff have any objections to the idea that Vincent is temporarily unable to work due to illness?"
Samuel calmed down and asked.
Jacob hurriedly said, "There is no objection. On the contrary, everyone hopes that you will return to
take charge of the affairs of the company as soon as possible. Mr. Green, what do you plan to do with
the person who looks like Mr. Vincent?"
"He and Vincent look alike probably because he underwent plastic surgery. Go and find out who this
person is. Before that, lock him up in the villa and keep an eye. No one is allowed to let him out without
my orders."
"Yes!"
Jacob answered and left.
Samuel read the document and frowned more tightly.
When Nicole got up, it was already eleven o'clock at noon.
She stretched lazily and could feel she was recovering.
Nicole got out of bed and did not see Samuel. She thought that he was busy with business, so she put
on a coat and went downstairs. However, she saw Samuel preparing food in the kitchen with his
sleeves rolled up.
She leaned against the armrest of the stairs and watched as the sunlight refracted through the window.
When it shone on Samuel, he seemed to be plated with a layer of gold and looked extremely sacred.
When Samuel sensed Nicole's gaze, he suddenly turned around and met Nicole's eyes. They looked at
each other affectionately.
Nicole felt extremely warm as if she was bathed in the sunshine.
"You're up? Wash your hands. Let's have a meal."
Samuel smiled.
Nicole's heart skipped a beat and she felt pleasant.
She never thought that Samuel could make her heart leap up after they had been married for so long.
"What dishes do you cook?"
Nicole walked downstairs. Just as she wanted to enter the kitchen, she was stopped by Samuel.
"Don't come in. The cooking smell is too strong. Just wait outside."
"I'm not that delicate!"
Nicole did not listen to him, but Samuel turned off the fire and took her out.
"I told you not to come in. You are not well."
As he spoke, Samuel had held Nicole's hand and walked out of the kitchen.
"I'm not too hungry yet. Shall we go sit in the courtyard for a while?"
Nicole suddenly had this kind of interest.
She did not know when Samuel would go to the company, how busy he would be, and whether it would
be dangerous to cooperate with the military. This moment of peace seemed to have been stolen,
making her feel both sweet and worried.
Samuel nodded and went to the courtyard with her.
It was sunny. Nicole leaned against Samuel's embrace and whispered, "When will you bring Lucas,
Zoe, and Joseph back?"
"Do you miss them?"
"Yes!"
"But I want to spend a few more days with you. Let's talk about it when you are fully recovered. They
are all taken good care of. You don't need to worry."
Samuel said quickly with a trace of guilt in his eyes.
If Nicole knew that Joseph had volunteered to learn from Satan King for ten years in order to save her,
she would probably go crazy with guilt.
He could only hide it from Nicole at present.
Nicole leaned against his embrace and didn't notice it. She said softly, "I suddenly feel like I'm getting
married."
"I didn't give you a good wedding."
"No, I just express my feelings."
Nicole felt that it was quite good this moment. It was plain, ordinary, and real. The simple, real and
pleasant life was what she had always wanted.
They were bathing in the sun and talking.
Laurel saw this through the window and put on a faint smile.
When Wendy saw it, she smiled and said, "Mrs. Green, how happy would they be if they kept like this?"
"Yeah, if there weren't so many things happening in the Green's, they should be the happiest couple."
Mrs. Green sighed and said, "How did Samuel deal with Vincent?"
"Mr. Green has taken control of Mr. Vincent. He has sent someone to investigate Mr. Vincent."
Mrs. Green's expression changed slightly after hearing that. She whispered, "What are our men
doing?"
"They are doing their best to stop Mr. Green, but Mr. Green is so resourceful that it's hard to hide it from
him."
"Alas!"
Mrs. Green did not say anything else, but her gaze towards Samuel changed slightly.
Nicole and Samuel stayed for a while and felt a little hot. Only then did they return to the living room.
Mrs. Green was already sitting there.
"What do you prepare for lunch? I feel the cooks will be out of work. Samuel can take over their work,
right? Nicole."
Hearing Mrs. Green, Nicole's face turned a little red.
"Mom, you tease me."
"No, no, I don't. Without you, this brat wouldn't have cooked a meal for me."
Mrs. Green's words surprised Samuel. Then, he smiled and said, "Mom, if you want to have the meal
that I cook, I can do it for you at any time."
"Really? I thought you were busy lately."
Mrs. Green looked at Samuel with a searching look.
Samuel smiled and said, "No matter how busy I am, I cannot leave my family behind, right? Previously,
I was too busy with the company business and ignored Nicole. I will take some time to accompany her
and my children, or I can take you out for a walk."
"Never mind. You should stay with Nicole and your children. Nicole hasn't had a good time since she
got married to you. Since you figure it out, you should stay with her more. Women need the company of
men. Just let your staff deal with the company affairs. Don't worry about other unimportant things."
Hearing Mrs. Green, Samuel was puzzled and asked, "What is unimportant? What does Mom mean?"
"You've been Dungeon for a few days and suffered a lot. Take this time to have a good rest. Don't
worry too much."
Samuel looked at Mrs. Green and suddenly smiled, "I see. Thank you, Mom. But I have to make sure
she can be safe before I keep her company, right?"
Mrs. Green's expression changed slightly and did not say anything else.
Nicole suddenly felt that the vibe was not right.
Did they have a fight?
No.
But they didn't seem to get along well.
What happened between Mrs. Green and Samuel? Why did Nicole suddenly feel that they were a bit
estranged from each other? Mrs. Green was dissatisfied that Samuel had seized Vincent's power?
Was Mrs. Green going to interfere in the affairs between Samuel and Vincent?
Nicole didn't know what to do for a moment.
