Lucas let out a scream.
Then Nicole was woken up.
"What's happening?"
She got up and rushed towards Lucas, checking on him.
"What's wrong? Are you in pain? Quickly tell me!"
Nicole was extremely worried.
Had Zama done something bad to Lucas?
Lucas pointed at Samuel and stammered, "Samuel opened his eyes."
"What did you say?"
Nicole was slightly puzzled.
Blair didn't pay much attention to Samuel just now. Upon hearing Lucas' words, Blair jumped up from
his chair and dashed to Samuel, discovering that Samuel had indeed opened his eyes.
"Samuel, how do you feel?"
Nicole turned sharply and pounced forward to hug Samuel tightly after confirming that his eyes were
open.
"You finally woke up! Samuel, you bastard! You're scaring me to death!"
Samuel found himself almost unable to breathe because of the weight on his body, and he was a little
confused.
Wasn't he in Bordeaux?
Didn't he fall off the cliff?
He was still alive?
He should be alive!
Otherwise, how would he see Nicole and hear her voice?
Wait!
He pushed Nicole away abruptly and looked at her in surprise.
"Your throat...."
"It's cured, but still hurts a little."
Nicole was overjoyed now.
Samuel sat up and suddenly felt a splitting headache.
He groaned with his head in his hands.
Blair quickly took out silver needles and inserted them into the acupuncture points on Samuel's head.
Nicole's heart was in her throat.
"What happened to him? Why does he have a headache?"
"That's normal. It's not that easy to cure neuralgia, which actually takes a long time. Now that he is
dehypnotized, his neuralgia needs to be treated slowly. Zama said that he would wake up three days
later, but he woke up now. This is amazing."
Blair explained quickly.
Samuel asked in shock as soon as he understood what Blair meant.
"Who? Who are you talking about?"
"Zama. Didn't you see that here is the Capital City? We're outside the prison now. Without Zama, you
would have died already."
Hearing this, Samuel swung around and looked at the large iron door behind him.
He never expected that he would be saved by Zama one day.
If it weren't for the fact that Nicole had no other choice, she wouldn't have asked Zama to save Samuel.
Samuel looked at Nicole and said softly, "Thank you."
"I'm your wife, so this is what I should do. Now tell me why you fell off the cliff."
Samuel didn't know how to answer this question.
He was unwilling to admit that he was so unlucky.
He planned to punish Soseph, but he didn't expect that he would have an accident and fall off the cliff.
"How is Soseph?"
"She is dead."
Nicole went over and supported Samuel.
Lucas finally recovered from surprise and shouted with his brows knitted, "Hey, I'm still here. Don't
forget me. If it wasn't for me, Samuel wouldn't be able to wake up."
"Fine, the credit is all yours."
Nicole chuckled and hurriedly brought Lucas to Samuel.
"Samuel, you suck. How come you got injured during your trip?"
"Lucas, even you dare to mock me now?"
Samuel was still weak for having been lying on the bed for a long time.
Since Samuel already woke up, Blair and Nicole hurriedly brought him back to the hotel.
Blair gave Samuel a thorough examination and heaved a sigh of relief after making sure that there was
nothing wrong with him.
"Don't worry, he now only suffers from the neuralgia. After a week or about 15 days of acupuncture, his
neuralgia will be gone."
This assured Nicole, who then was finally relieved.
"Today is a good day. This calls for a celebration."
"Alright."
Samuel had just escaped death. He stared at Nicole and Lucas, feeling that everything was so
precious.
However, Blair ran on their parade.
"I'm telling you, you can celebrate, but you can't drink alcohol or eat stimulating foods such as cold,
spicy and sour food. You'd best have porridge and eat something light."
"Then how can it be considered as a celebration?"
Samuel frowned slightly.
Blair shrugged and said, "I don't care. You can ignore my advice, but you have to bear the
consequences."
"Forget it. Light food is also great."
Nicole changed her mind after hearing Blair's suggestion.
Samuel said sadly at the sight of her worried face, "Sorry to have kept you worried."
"Since you know I'm concerned about you, you have to be careful from now on. If you dare to act rashly
again, I won't talk to you anymore. I'm serious."
"That sounds good!"
They looked at each other affectionately, looking like they only had eyes for each other.
Blair shook himself and said to Lucas, "Let's go. Don't you think we're playing gooseberry?"
"You're right. Mommy doesn't love me anymore."
Lucas shook his head like an adult and walked out with Blair.
Nicole and Samuel laughed at the same time.
As they were the only people in the room, Samuel held Nicole's hand.
"Thank for your efforts all these days. You must have a rough time, right?"
"I'm fine. As long as you can wake up, everything will be worth it. Why didn't you tell me about your
neuralgia? I've told you to ask Andrew to bring you out of the hypnotic state. Why did you just ignore
me?"
Nicole got angry at the thought of this.
Samuel said with a smile, "I caused you to lose your voice, so I want to punish myself. The best way is
to get myself to be in pain. I have to remind myself at all times what you have paid because of my
negligence. However, I didn't expect it to end up like this."
"You're being silly. No matter what happens, I always hope you're fine. You should know that your body
is mine now. Without my permission, you can't hurt yourself. Do you understand?"
"Yes, my darling."
Samuel felt that this moment was really warm and worth cherishing.
"Why would you ask Zama to treat me?"
Samuel knew that Nicole hated Zama's guts. However, she still went to see Zama and asked Zama to
treat him. This must be an awkward mission for Nicole.
Nicole paused for a moment and said, "It's Blair's suggestion. To me, it's all worth it if you can get
better."
"Sorry to have put you in such a dilemma."
"Don't say that. You're my husband, so I'm willing to do everything for you."
Nicole smiled and snuggled up in Samuel's embrace, telling him everything that had happened in the
past few days.
Samuel's heart ached as he heard her sufferings these days.
"It seems that you suffered a lot after you are with me. Sometimes, I really don't know if you're lucky or
unlucky to have become my wife."
"Don't be silly. People will experience a lot of things in this lifetime. What matters is not how difficult
those things are, but that we are always together to share weal and woe. We're together, and that's all
we need."
Samuel felt even more upset.
He hugged Nicole tightly and whispered, "Alright, I'll be with you forever."
"Good."
They smiled.
Nicole suddenly thought of Zama's illness and pondered for a while before saying, "Zama is dying."
"What do you mean?"
Samuel was confused.
Nicole told Samuel about Zama's illness.
"I went to look at the medical records with Gabrielle and found that Zama was very sick. She might die
in a few days. I know you care about my feelings, but it doesn't matter if you want to see her. Though
she did a lot of terrible things to me before, she cured my throat after all. I'm grateful to her for that. If
you want to visit her, just go. Maybe this is your last chance."
In fact, Nicole didn't want to forgive Zama. However, Zama was Samuel's mother, so Nicole persuaded
him to go visit Zama in case he would be regretful later.
Samuel hesitated.
To be honest, his feelings for Zama were complicated.
In the past, he had truly treated her as his mother. However, ever since she had harmed Nicole, he
didn't want to see her again even though she was related to him.
Now that he knew Zama was dying, he felt very bad. Though she had done many evil things, she was
caring about him when he was young. Therefore, his heart softened.
"I want to see her."
"Alright. Let's go together tomorrow."
Nicole got over her hatred towards Zama.
No matter what Zama had done before, she was Samuel's mother and she would die soon. Thus,
Nicole didn't stop Samuel from going to see Zama, even though she hadn't forgiven Zama.
They talked for a while and decided to go for a walk.
Bathed in the sunshine, Samuel smiled, "I can finally feel the sun now. I've heard your voice many
times when I was in a coma, but I couldn't hear what you were saying clearly. It felt like there was a fog
blocking me from getting close to you. I was eager to find an exit, but only found myself back where I
started. Sometimes I just wish I could die and feel nothing. But then I thought of you and our kids. If I
really die, how can you live without me?"
As he expressed his feelings, Nicole felt really sorry for him.
"Alright, you can leave more things to your subordinates, while you spend more time with me and the
children. Don't forget that you still owe the kids a trip. Zoe was angry and said that I didn't let you see
her on purpose. Actually, I just didn't dare to let her know about your situation."
"I'm sorry."
Samuel held Nicole's hand tightly.
She supported the whole family with such a pair of small hands when he was unconscious. She was a
delicate woman, but she never gave up him after experiencing so many hardships. This was all
because she deeply loved him. So how could he not be nice to her? How could he not love her?
Samuel hugged Nicole tightly and said softly, "I'm so lucky to have you around for the rest of my life."
Nicole was moved and chocked up.
All her distress seemed to have dissipated in this moment.
They walked in the sun and watched the busy street, feeling that the world was so beautiful.
Just as they wanted to enjoy the time, Blair suddenly ran towards them.
"Samuel, Nicole, hurry to the hospital! Zama is at the last gasp!"
