Nicole answered the phone immediately.
"Lucas, did you find anything?"
Hearing Nicole's voice, Lucas paused and said, "Mommy, are you in the hospital? How's Uncle Tim?"
"Not good, but he has transferred to the intensive care unit. How is the thing Daddy asked you to do
going?"
Although Nicole was anxious, she could not press Lucas too hard.
Lucas hurriedly answered, "I found out that the car belongs to Jase."
"Jase!"
Nicole looked at Samuel with anger.
Jase was just an emerald tycoon. If it was because of business, Jase didn't have to do this to Tim,
right?
"I see. Lucas, stay out of this. Mommy and Daddy will handle it. You and Uncle Blair need to be safe.
Do you understand?"
"Got it, Mommy. You and Samuel should also pay attention."
"Alright."
After Nicole hung up the phone, she frowned.
"What's wrong? What did Lucas say?"
"It's Jase. But it's just a business. Why would he do this? Is there something we don't know?"
Nicole asked.
Samuel pondered for a moment and said, "We can ask Maia. Perhaps we can get some clues."
Nicole nodded and went to the ward with Samuel.
Tim, who used to be alive and kicking, was lying there motionlessly.
Not long ago, it was Samuel lying on the hospital bed, but now it turned to Tim.
Nicole felt that she should go burn incense and worship gods. Why would the people around her
always be in trouble?
Seeing Nicole enter, Maia hurriedly stood up and asked, "Lady Bush, how's it going?"
"Is there any grudge between Tim and Jase? Do you know about that?"
Maia was shocked by Nicole's question.
"Jase? Are you saying that it was Jase who caused trouble for us and beat Tim?"
"The car is his. As for whether it was planned by him or not, we haven't investigated it yet. We want to
know that is there any personal grudge between Tim and Jase?"
"No, if there's one, it's because of me."
Maia bit her lips and told them what Tim had guessed about Jase, including the cause of her parents'
death and the encrypted information Lucas had given her.
Nicole frowned slightly.
Samuel said in a low voice, "Tim is still that arrogant. He is not in the Seapolis City now! Did he really
think he is the king? He is just messing around."
"Alright, Tim has always been like this. You know him. He was arrogant when he was in the Dungeon.
Don't you remember?"
Nicole knew that Samuel had good intentions, so she quickly grabbed him.
Maia looked at Samuel, afraid that Samuel would not help Tim, so she hurriedly said, "Mr. Green, I
know that you have great abilities. Tim said that you are his best friend. Help him, please."
"Me? His best friend? Did he tell you that personally?"
Samuel was a little surprised.
Maia hurriedly nodded.
"Yes, he said it to me personally. He said that he had few friends all his life. The most reliable and
trustworthy ones are Lady Bush and Mr. Green."
Hearing that, Samuel shook his head with a smile.
"Liar."
"Alright, will you help him or not?"
Nicole pulled Samuel's clothes.
Samuel felt a little uncomfortable watching his wife speak for Tim.
"If I didn't know you, I would really be jealous. You actually intercede for another man in front of your
own husband. Nicole, do you know how hurt it is?"
Nicole laughed.
"I'll compensate you. OK?"
"That's what you said."
Samuel behaved like a child.
Maia looked at them and suddenly felt envious.
In this world, there aren't many couples like Nicole and Samuel, right?
"Mr. Green, Lady Bush, you are so intimate."
Samuel immediately smiled and said, "Definitely. After all, we are an old couple. Our child is four years
old."
"Stop boasting. Hurry up, is there any way to help Tim?"
Nicole glared at Samuel.
This man is getting more and showier.
Samuel smiled, "There must be a way. No matter what, I have to carry out my wife's order. Don't worry,
I'll go and check Jase's background tonight."
"I'll go with you."
Nicole hurriedly said.
However, Samuel whispered, "Stay in the hotel. If I can't come back, you have to find someone to save
me."
"What nonsense are you talking about?"
Nicole was dissatisfied to hear that.
Samuel also knew that Nicole was afraid that something would happen to him, but he had to confess it.
"Nicole, no one can guarantee that everything will go according to our plans. So, what I'm talking about
is a possibility. You stay here, and I'll go see Jase alone in the name of discussing business. You can
check who he's done close business with over the years. Perhaps this is another breakthrough."
Although Nicole was a little worried, she had to admit that Samuel was correct.
"You must be careful."
"Don't worry, I'll be fine."
Samuel rubbed Nicole's head. His gentleness made Maia a little envious.
Maybe this is love.
Nicole pushed Samuel, "You touch my head again. I'm not your pet."
"Being able to love you like this for the rest of my life is my lifelong wish."
Looking at Samuel's tender gaze, Nicole felt warm.
"Enough. Hurry up and call Jase."
Nicole pushed Samuel away.
Samuel said gloomily, "How could you push me away like that?"
"Then shall I give you a French kiss?"
"I'll accept that!"
After saying that, Samuel directly held Nicole in his arms.
Maia hurriedly turned her head away. Her face flushed.
This Mr. Green was truly open.
Samuel kissed Nicole. Nicole was so embarrassed that she wanted to bury herself.
She pushed Samuel away, "Samuel, enough!"
"Alright."
Samuel smiled and left.
Nicole felt a little embarrassed under Maia's gaze.
"Samuel was like this after he recovered. Don't mind, he used to be very gentle."
"Lady Bush, Mr. Green really loves you."
"I think it's common between husband and wife."
Nicole hurriedly explained.
Maia smiled and looked at Tim, whispering, "He said he wants me to be his girlfriend."
"Did you agree?"
"I don't know."
Maia sat down beside Tim's bed.
She held Tim's hand and said, "Lady Bush, what if Tim has a fever? Will he wake up? Will he be like
Mr. Green before?"
"No way! Tim is not an idiot. It's not his personality to fall asleep after being framed. He is too arrogant.
He will definitely take revenge by himself. So, don't worry, he will be fine."
Hearing Nicole's evaluation of Tim, Maia suddenly felt a little jealous. Nicole seemed to know Tim well.
"Lady Bush, you know a lot about Tim."
"We've been good friends in all weathers."
Nicole suddenly felt that something was wrong.
She looked at Maia and saw that Maia's expression was not right. She immediately asked, "What's
wrong?"
"Lady Bush, I know it is inappropriate to say it right now, but I still have to say it. Don't be angry, OK?"
"I'm listening."
Nicole felt that Maia was a little different now.
Maia looked at her and pondered for a moment, "Tim said that he likes me. I also want to be his
girlfriend. I know how Tim felt about you before. He is still too affectionate after all. You are married and
have a child. Please don't involve him in the future. He should have a life of his own."
Nicole paused for a moment. She suddenly felt a little uncomfortable.
Was she rejected by Maia?
"Maia, Tim and I are innocent, and we are really just friends. You just think too much."
"I know what I'm saying. I don't care about Tim's feelings for you, but I hope I'll be the focus of his life.
Lady Bush, you are a person with a family. If it's nothing special, don't look for Tim, OK?"
Maia was very straightforward. It made Nicole somewhat embarrassed and speechless.
Nicole hoped that Tim could have his own happiness, but she was still uneasy when Maia rejected her.
"Every time I look for Tim, it's not for personal reasons."
"I know, but I hope that no matter what happens in the future, you won't look for Tim. If you really want
him to be happy, then leave him completely. That way, you and I will be more comfortable."
Maia looked at Nicole. It seemed as if Nicole was going to steal her boyfriend away.
Maia meant that from now on, there would be no interactions between Nicole and Tim, and there would
be no need for them to be friends.
Nicole felt sad, but she also knew that this might be good for Tim and Maia.
"Alright. I'll quit his life."
"Thank you, Lady Bush. If possible, I hope Lady Bush will give me the travel agency here. Don't worry. I
will help you take care of it. You can follow Mr. Green back to the Seapolis City."
Maia's words made Nicole depressed.
"Maia, is that necessary? Tim is now on the hospital bed. You mean you can handle it yourself and
don't need us to help you? Or can't I be here because Tim's here? Don't you think you're a little out of
line?"
Nicole didn't want to say that, but she had no choice.
She could leave Tim for Tim's own good, but Maia even wanted to deprive her of the right to stay here.
This is too much. Moreover, that travel agency was hers. Maia had no right to decide who should
manage it.
