"Samuel!"

Nicole screamed, thinking Samuel was going to hit Maia, only to see he stop a dagger.

She paused slightly.

Was this someone trying to kill Maia?

Nicole frowned for a moment and quickly took Maia behind her.

Maia was a bit upset.

Just then, a figure ran out of the room so fast that neither Nicole nor Samuel could see who it was.

When Samuel tried to chase him, he was stopped by Nicole.

"Don't chase it, the police are coming. I have called the police, just let the police deal with it."

Hearing that, Maia was stunned, but did not stop Nicole from calling the police.

Looking at Maia, Nicole sighed and didn't say anything. She disdained someone who kicked people

when they were down.

Samuel, fearing that someone else might come out and harm Nicole, did not chase that person. He

looked from Maia to Nicole and asked in a low voice, "Are you fine?"

Nicole shook her head.

The police arrived soon.

Samuel made some statements while Maia was loaded into the ambulance.

Nicole hesitated for a long time before she picked up the phone and called Tim and told him what had

happened to Maia.

Tim got here quickly.

Maia had been sent away.

Tim's face darkened as he looked at the blood on the floor.

"Do you know who did it?"

Nicole shook her head.

"She didn't tell us and I didn't look it up. It's up to you how to deal with it, but you have to ensure your

own safety."

"I see." Tim nodded.

After making the statements, Samuel and Nicole worried about Tim and drove to the hospital

immediately.

Tim sat in front of the emergency room, without knowing what he was thinking. When he saw Nicole

and Samuel, he whispered, "Go home. I'll apologize for all the trouble this has caused you."

"We're worried about you. Tim, no matter what happens, don't do anything stupid. Just remember, your

mother is waiting for you."

Nicole knew Tim's temper. Although she did not like Maia, Tim had paid affection to Maia and he was a

man of paying importance to relationship. Now Maia had deeply injured. Even if she was saved, she

might be paralyzed in bed all her life.

Nicole didn't know what to say as to such a result. What she was afraid of right now was that Tim would

be impulsive and desperately wanted to find out who did this.

And that was what worried her most.

Seeing that Tim was in low mood, Samuel handed in a smoke and said, "It's not that simple," Samuel

said. "We need to look into it. I thought this is your own business and you could handle it yourself, but

now that it interferes with Nicole's life, I can't turn my back on it. Tim, if I find out something, and want

do something, don't..."

"I'll do it. I've got some points. Jase and Maia's parents seemed to have seen someone before the

mission. Jase didn't tell me who this person is, but I'm sure I can find it out."

Tim, with anger in his eyes, interrupted Samuel.

Samuel paused for a moment, then nodded.

"Well, then check that out, but I have to find out who threw the thing into the Don Family."

"Well! You should go back. I'm sorry Maia has bothered you. It should not have caused you trouble."

"Come on. You are my friend."

Samuel punched Tim, then looked at Nicole.

Knowing that she couldn't help them, Nicole said in a low voice, "Tim, we're going home," Nicole

whispered. "Call us if you need anything. The police may be here later to record your statement. If Maia

doesn't tell the truth, try to persuade her. Her brother needs her."

"I see."

Tim seemed to have aged a lot in a day.

With a heavy heart, Nicole knew that no words could comfort Tim right now.

And then, she and Samuel left the hospital.

Nicole was still sighing when she got into the car.

Samuel handed her the hot milk he had just bought.

"Drink it and warm yourself."

"When did you buy it? I didn't even see it."

Nicole took the milk. It was warm and somewhat made her feel better.

Samuel turned on the heating and said, "You dared to go out at night," he said. "It's lucky that you

called me. I can't imagine what would happen if you went out alone and got hurt. Maia is so annoying

and she keeps pestering you. I can't figure out why Tim would have a crush on her. If it isn't for Tim, I

would have beat her."

"I see. It's my fault. It was I who married them up. Now Tim and Maia have feelings, but Maia is not

Tim's Miss Right. Do you know how guilty I am now? I really think it's my fault."

Nicole had been feeling guilty about this for a long time.

"Stop taking nonsense. You just give them an opportunity. Maia gets bad character, but it has nothing

to do with you. Don't blame yourself for everything."

Samuel knew Nicole was upset and he tried to say something nice to comfort her.

Nicole nodded and asked, "Have you settled down the things of the Green Family?"

"Almost. It will take a few more days. Could you stay a few more days?"

"Yes. I'm fine with the kids at the Don Family, but why Lucas hasn't come back yet?"

Nicole missed her son, too.

Samuel patted the back of her hand and said, "He's got some training. It might take a while. Don't

worry about him. The one I'm worried about right now is you. What kind of person is allowed to come in

and out of the Don Family freely and throw things into your room?"

"Someone in the Don Family?"

Nicole's words made Samuel frown again.

"You'd better move back and live with us."

"If they're after me, it's no use wherever I move. With Mark and Uncle Jason here. I'll be fine. Now is

the time to find out who at the Don Family would do this to me. He was clearly trying to lead us, or me,

to the garbage dump to save Maia. So, I think this person should have a relationship with Maia. Let's

start with Maia's interpersonal relationship."

What Nicole said reminded Samuel.

"I'll ask Jacob to look it up."

"I'll look it up myself."

Nicole's words made Samuel pause for a moment.

"You doubt Jacob?"

"No, I just want to check it myself."

Nicole smiled weakly, but Samuel saw something in her smile.

"Jacob is my man. He won't do something to hurt us."

"I didn't mean it is him. You are thinking too much."

Nicole was still smiling, but reluctantly.

The atmosphere in the car was awkward for a moment.

Just then, Nicole's phone rang.

Nicole looked at the caller. It was Martha.

"Who's that?" Asked Samuel, as Nicole hesitated whether to pick up the phone.

"Aunt Martha."

When Nicole finished, she whispered, "What should I say if she asks if I know where Tim is?"

"Just tell her that Tim got drunk in our house and he will stay at our home tonight."

Samuel knew Nicole didn't want Martha to worry.

Nicole, of course, knew what Samuel meant. She laughed and said, "How could you teach your wife to

lie?"

"Tell the truth, then?"

"Well, just tell her what you said." Nicole said, smiling and answering the phone.

"Aunt Martha, what's the matter?"

"Nicole, have you seen Tim?" Martha's voice panted.

Nicole glanced at Samuel and said, "Yes, but he and Samuel are a little drunk. He would be staying

here tonight. Don't wait for him tonight."

"No, I want to see him. Can't you get him back?"

Martha seemed to be worried.

Nicole looked at Samuel, not knowing what to say.

Samuel quickly took the phone.

"Auntie, this is Samuel. Tim is drunk and fell asleep. Tell me what's wrong. I will check it out."

Martha sighed, "It's nothing serious. I just heard some noise in the house and tried to go down to have

a look, then I fell and can't get up. The servant's grandson has a fever today, so she isn't here. I want to

ask Tim to take me to the hospital. I might have broken my leg."

Samuel became nervous.

"Auntie, stay there. Nicole and I will be right there."

"Okay, but if you can wake Tim up, just let him come back. I don't want to bother you." Martha said.

Samuel said, "He can't drive even if he's sober. We'll be there soon."

Samuel hung up the phone and started the car.

"What's the matter?"

"Aunt Martha fell down at home."

"What's going on?" Nicole asked, glumly, "Why bad things come one after another?"

"Let's go to Martha. Tim won't leave until Maia is alright. Don't tell him Martha has broken her legs now.

Let's go over and take Aunt Martha to the hospital."

"That's the only way."

Nicole nodded.

Samuel looked at her and said, "If you are tired, just take a rest. Or shall I go alone and take you back

to the Don Family first?"

"No, let's go and have a look."

They quickly went to Tim's.

By the time Nicole arrived, Martha was trying to get up on her own, but she couldn't get up and fell

even harder.

"Auntie, don't move. Let me help you."

Nicole said as she ran toward Martha. But before she reached Martha, she felt she had stepped on

something and fell backward.

"Let's go to Martha. Tim won't leave until Maia is alright. Don't tell him Martha has broken her legs now.

Let's go over and take Aunt Martha to the hospital."

"That's the only way."

Nicole nodded.

Samuel looked at her and said, "If you are tired, just take a rest. Or shall | go alone and take you back

to the Don Family first?"

"No, let's go and have a look."

They quickly went to Tim's.

By the time Nicole arrived, Martha was trying to get up on her own, but she couldn't get up and fell

even harder.

“Auntie, don't move. Let me help you."

Nicole said as she ran toward Martha. But before she reached Martha, she felt she had stepped on

something and fell backward.
