Seeing that Nicole was slightly stunned, Audrey asked, "What's wrong? Did Samuel say anything?"
"No. I was just thinking that maybe I was too immersed in drawing just now and didn't hear his call. I'll
call him later. Mom, just go to sleep. I'll ask Steve for help. It’s late. Don't stay up with me."
Nicole said with a smile.
She did not want Audrey to worry. Even if something happened to Samuel, she did not intend to let
Audrey know.
Audrey had been in the officialdom for so many years, so she could clearly see Nicole through.
However, since Nicole did this for her, she'd better pretend that she didn't know anything.
She smiled and said, "Alright, I'll go to sleep first. Don't be too late and take care of yourself. You're
pregnant."
"I see."
Nicole smiled and watched Audrey out.
After Nicole closing the door, her smile froze.
She took out her phone and found that there were no text messages or phone calls. She became even
more nervous.
Nicole called Samuel, but no one answered.
She called him six times in a row, but got the same response.
Nicole was anxious.
She didn't give up and called Samuel again. This time, the call was answered, but a woman's voice
rang.
"Hello, who are you looking for?"
Nicole suddenly paused.
Samuel would often go to the clubhouses for some social activities, but he had never had a woman to
stay with him. Nicole knew about this. And he would never let someone else to touch his cell phone.
Her gaze darkened.
"Who are you?"
Nicole's voice was cold, making the other woman pause for a moment. Then, she sounded weak and
said in a low voice, "I am the princess of the clubhouse."
Nicole knew what the "Princess" meant. Just because of this, she was annoyed.
It wasn't strange for Samuel to go to the clubhouse, but it was strange for him to ask a princess to stay
with him, not to mention that the woman was allowed to get access to his phone. Nicole's gaze turned
colder.
"What about him?"
The woman swallowed and then said, "You mean Mr. Green?"
"Where is he?"
"Mr. Green is drunk. Someone helped him upstairs to rest. His phone was left here and I came to get
his phone."
Hearing this, Nicole could hardly control her anger.
Damn! You bastard, Samuel!
'When you left, I thought something important had happened. But actually, you went to the clubhouse
to drink with a princess!"
Nicole was both jealous and angry. Her rationality was about to burn up.
"Give me the address!"
The other woman told the address to Nicole.
Nicole hurriedly stood up and opened the door before she changed her clothes. After walking out of the
door, she felt a little cold. Looking down, she saw that she was still wearing pajamas.
Thinking of clubhouse, she frowned slightly. Then Nicole went back to her room and changed her
clothes. Only then did she go to find Steve.
"Do you have the car key? I'm going out."
Nicole's voice was very low, which shocked Steve.
Fortunately, Steve had the habit of sleeping in his shirt for so many years, so that it wasn't
embarrassing.
"Miss Bush, are you going out? Let me go with you."
"No need."
Nicole directly refused him.
Looking at Nicole, Steve felt that she was angry. But who made her angry?
Nicole noticed that Steve's gaze was wandering around her all the time and she was afraid that he
would tell Edwin. She said irritably, "I'll wait for you outside."
Steve understood this sentence.
He immediately got up, put on his clothes, and immediately came to the garage.
Nicole seems to be quite angry and her expression was gloomy. Steve wanted to ask what happened,
but he dared not to ask because of the serious atmosphere.
"Shall we tell Mr. Shaw?"
"No need. Grandfather is asleep. And it's nothing big. Come with me to pick up someone."
Nicole said lightly, but Steve was very focused.
They drove the car and left the military compound.
According to the address given by that woman, Nicole asked Steve to drive to the clubhouse.
Looking at the golden and resplendent clubhouse, Nicole felt much angrier. She tried to suppress it.
She wanted to hear what kind of explanation Samuel would give her.
Seeing how angry Nicole was, Steve guessed out what was happening when he saw the clubhouse.
"Miss Bush, Mr. Green is not that kind of man. He...."
"Shut up!"
Nicole was not in a good mood, so naturally she couldn't control her temper now.
Steve shut up. He felt that Nicole's temper at this time was really similar to Edwin's.
He stood behind Nicole and looked at her. She paused for a moment and then made a phone call.
"Which floor?"
"Room 1308 on the 13th floor."
The woman's voice was not loud. Nicole's gaze darkened.
'All right, good. You even booked a room."
She took a deep breath and tried her best to suppress the anger before she stepped inside.
Steve did not say anything and followed Nicole inside.
The person in the clubhouse saw Nicole and wanted to stop her, but when seeing Steve, who looking
gloomy, he hurriedly got out of the way.
Nicole didn't pay much attention to this and directly went to the elevator. She pressed the button of the
13th floor.
This should be the VIP area, and it was very quiet in the entire floor. The sanitary work was also very
good.
Nicole's eyes deepened.
She never thought that Samuel would have an affair.
Five years ago, when she misunderstood Samuel and Riley, she felt such a pain. Now that they had
gone through so many difficulties and experienced so much, couldn't they still avoid cheating?
Nicole felt so uncomfortable that she almost suffocated.
There was even a sense of violence in her heart.
She wanted to kill Samuel!
Seeing Nicole like this, Steve stopped her.
"Miss Bush, let me go in and see what's going on. What if it's not like what you think about?"
"What do you think I'm thinking about?"
Nicole couldn't help but laugh. Not only did Steve feel warm from that charming smile, but also he felt
extremely cold.
He had experienced many things with Edwin, and he was no longer a young man. However, just now,
he saw the killing intent in Nicole's eyes.
Under Nicole's gaze, Steve actually felt very stressed.
"Miss Bush, no matter what happens, you need to stay calm. You are pregnant now, and you are no
longer as strong as before. Besides, Mr. Shaw is also getting old. You...."
"I see."
Nicole interrupted Steve. If he continued. Nicole thought that she was going crazy.
She went straight to Room 1308.
The door was empty, which surprised Nicole.
Slight noise came from inside, which sounded like someone was dressing.
Nicole felt that her heart was roasted on the fire. She could not wait any longer and kicked the door
open.
"Samuel, get up!" She directly walked in.
However, Nicole was stunned when she saw the person on the bed.
When the other party saw Nicole, she didn't even changer her expression. She just said indifferently,
"I'm sorry."
Nicole looked at the familiar person in front of her, and she didn't know what reactions she should have.
Her brain was in a buzz.
"Olivia?"
When Nicole said this name, she felt that her blood was about to freeze.
So the person she should watch out for was her best friend?
Didn't Olivia like Jacob?
Why did she stay with Samuel?
Nicole looked at Samuel, who seemed as if he was really drunk. His upper body was naked and Nicole
didn't know what was going on with his lower body, because it was covered by the sheets.
However, since she had already kicked the door so rudely and Samuel was still unconscious, this was
weird.
"What did you do to him?"
Nicole's gaze was extremely cold, which made people feel as if the cold breeze was piercing through
their bones.
Olivia lowered her head and said in a low voice, "Nothing. I just put some medicine in his wine and
made him more enthusiastic. Now that he was weak, he should have fallen asleep."
As she spoke, Olivia pretended to pull her collar.
Seeing the hickey on her neck, Nicole unconsciously clenched her fists, and her fingernails inserted
into her palm. But it was less painful than that in her heart.
"Why?"
"There's no reason. I just feel that Samuel is good. He's obsessed and I've lost myself. You can scold
me or hit me. I know your temper. After all these years, you definitely won't forgive me. Don't worry. I'll
leave tomorrow. And I'll never see you again after I leave."
Olivia kept her head down, and Nicole couldn't see her face clearly.
Nicole's heart ached, and she was filled with anger. If the person in front of her wasn't Olivia, she would
directly knock that person down and beat her to death. But now, it was Olivia, her best friend. Nicole
couldn't do anything about it.
"Scram! I don't wanna see you again in this lifetime!"
Nicole's voice trembled, but she tried to suppress it. She also sounded hoarse.
Olivia knew that this was all that Nicole could do. She might hurt herself.
Olivia looked up at Nicole. Seeing her cold expression, Olivia wanted to say something. But in the end,
she gave up and quietly left after dressing up.
Nicole was dumbfounded.
She wasn't blind, so she could tell that Olivia's walking posture was strange.
Olivia always knew to preserve her purity. After so many years, she was still a virgin. She hadn't
crossed the last limit in her previous relationship with Jacob. She said that she wanted to do that until
the wedding.
Now she looked so weak and couldn't take a firm stand. Nicole could imagine how intense last night
had been.
Nicole could not bear all of this.
One was her favorite man, and the other was her best friend. How could she endure this?
And who should she hate?
Samuel left immediately after receiving the phone call. Could it be that Olivia called him? But why did
Samuel look so bad back then?
Could it be that they had already had an affair long time ago?
But why didn't Nicole notice that?
Or did Olivia plan all this by casual opportunities?
Nicole was trapped in this series of questions.
Looking at Samuel who was still unconscious on the bed, she suddenly kicked the bed. The strength
made the bed tremble, but still didn't wake up the people on the bed.
