A thought flashed through Nicole's mind. She immediately said, "It's impossible to get you a team now.
If you really need help, I'll lend you some people from the Night Elf Empire."
"The Night Elf Empire?"
Jacob paused.
Then he quickly nodded.
"Alright, thank you, Mrs. Green."
Nicole hesitated for a moment and asked, "Jacob, you've been with Samuel for so long. There's
something I want to ask you."
"Yeah, sure."
"Who designed my wedding dress?"
Nicole's question stunned Jacob.
"Mr. Green found someone abroad to design it. What's wrong?"
"I got married in such a hurry, but it took time to design that dress. I just want to know...."
Nicole couldn't continue.
She felt a little conflicted.
It had been so long. No matter whom this dress was designed for, she was the one who married
Samuel.
She shouldn't dwell on the dress.
Thinking of this, Nicole said, "Forget it. I got to go."
"Mrs. Green."
Jacob stopped Nicole in time.
Nicole's hand froze. She did not say anything. Obviously, she was very nervous.
"What?"
"That dress was prepared for you."
Nicole was shocked.
"But he disliked me before we got married."
"Has Mr. Green ever said that to you?"
Jacob smiled. "Mrs. Green, Mr. Green had seen you in college. He thought you were an elegant
woman at the first glance. At that time, he had an alumna who majored in wedding dress design. She
was looking for inspiration, so Mr. Green gave her your size and asked her to try it. So, she came up
with the one in your hand. They never thought that it could come in handy at his wedding. At that time,
she praised that Mr. Green had foresight. Now I think Mr. Green should have fallen in love with you at
first sight. But he didn't realize it. After all, Riley didn't attract much attention from Mr. Green at that
time."
It really melted Nicole's heart. She was touched.
"But how did he know my size?"
"Do you remember that the drama club bought custom-made clothes for you? They had your size. Mr.
Green got it easily. There's one more thing I have to tell you."
"What?"
"At that banquet, Mr. Green exchanged the wine you drank."
Nicole was thunderstruck.
"What are you talking about?"
Jacob whispered, "Please don't tell Mr. Green that I told you this. Riley wanted to climb into Mr. Green's
bed. When we found out about this, they had put that medicine into the wine. There were many people
on that day. It was too late to change the wine. Mr. Green knew that the wine with the medicine must be
around Riley since she was plotting against him. So, he asked me to keep an eye on the wine all the
time and give you that glass at the right moment. "
Nicole's eyes widened.
"Why me?"
"Because you like Mr. Green."
"But he didn't like me! Riley could do better than me if she married Samuel."
Nicole could not figure out why.
But Jacob kept smiling. "Mrs. Green, you don't know much about Mr. Green. At that time, Riley claimed
to be his girlfriend, and he did not respond. So, the public thought they were dating. In fact, Mr. Green
was just too lazy to explain. But after seeing you, Mr. Green had a different feeling. He thought it was
better to spend a night with you rather than Riley. Therefore, he drank the wine. However, Mr. Green
wanted you to have the other glass of wine."
Nicole was speechless.
No wonder Zama, Swift, and Riley couldn't figure out how Nicole got that glass of wine. It turned out
that Samuel did it himself.
Who would have thought that Samuel would plot against himself?
"You meant that I made a good impression on Samuel. But why did he leave me alone for three years
after getting married?"
"Mrs. Green, just think about it. Mr. Green was indeed indifferent to you, but he never had a scandal.
He treated other women the same way. Before you had an accident, he felt comfortable living with you,
so he decided to do it in his way. And he has prepared gifts for you on your birthday and other festivals.
He has never done that before. He was learning to love you and become a good husband."
Nicole was sunk in deep thoughts.
Samuel did take care of her during the first three years, even though he didn't have any affection for
her back then. Her parents cut off their relationship with Nicole because they were angry that she had
done such a disgraceful thing. So, she always hid on the balcony and cried when she felt aggrieved.
Then one day, she saw a sweet cake on the balcony when she went there in a bad mood. After that,
every time she went to the balcony, there would be a cake.
She thought it was Zama or a servant. Now it seemed like it was prepared by Samuel.
He had been paying close attention to her, but he was not good at expressing it. He thought that it was
good to live such a peaceful life. However, he never expected that everything changed when Riley
returned five years ago.
Nicole fell into her memories, not even knowing when Jacob hung up the phone.
When she was pulled back to reality, she realized that the phone had been cut off.
Nicole couldn't help but smile.
Samuel. Oh, Samuel. He never wanted to be a showman, didn't he?
Nicole smiled happily and called Trevin, telling him to inform the others in the Night Elf Empire to help
Jacob. Then she asked about the ancient book by the way.
Trevin hesitated.
"What's wrong? Did something happen?"
Nicole felt that Trevin was weird, her heart thumping.
Trevin paused for a moment and said, "Mrs. Green, I found the ancient book in the ancestral hall."
Nicole was overjoyed.
"Really? Then when will you be back?"
"I might not be able to return now."
Trevin replied in a deep voice.
"I'm sorry, Mrs. Green. I found the ancient book, but Fill took it away. He wanted to take a look. Then he
disappeared with the book. I can't find him now."
Nicole frowned.
Fill?
Samuel trusted Fill so much. Why did Fill snatch the ancient book and run away?
"Where did he disappear?"
"At the hotel. I watched him checking in, but he didn't come out. I went to ask, and people of the hotel
said that he didn't check in. It's so strange. But I'm chasing after him. Don't worry, Mrs. Green. I will find
Fill and bring back the ancient book."
Trevin said angrily.
However, Nicole felt that things weren't as simple as Trevin had said.
Why did Fill take away the ancient book?
Samuel was his best friend and even saved his life. Fill didn't have to take away the ancient book for
Samuel.
So, Fill was doing that for someone else?
For whom?
Who was more important than Samuel to Fill?
Nicole couldn't figure it out.
She thought that Fill disappeared for a reason. Perhaps he was in danger.
Samuel trusted Fill so much, and Nicole trusted Samuel. So, she was trying to trust Fill.
If Fill did it for Samuel, then Trevin was lying to her.
But would Trevin do that?
There were problems with people she groomed?
Trevin was taking revenge for Maia?
Nicole was confused.
"Mrs. Green, are you still there?"
Trevin's voice pulled Nicole back from her thoughts.
"Did the Night Elf Empire get moving? They can't find Fill either?"
"Yeah. That's why I said it was strange. Oh, I saw Mr. Brown. Can I ask him for help if he comes over
here? You told me to lend Mr. Brown some help. Can I tell him about it?"
Nicole was stunned again.
Jacob also went to the Harper Town?
What was he doing there?
Was he doubting Trevin or Fill?
Nicole suddenly had a headache.
"I'll talk to Jacob."
After hanging up, Nicole pressed her fingers into temples.
What was going on?
Nicole called Jacob. He picked it up quickly.
"Mrs. Green, is there anything else you want to know?"
"You're in the Harper Town?"
Nicole asked straightforwardly.
"Yes, Mr. Green asked me to protect Fill."
"Protect Fill?"
Nicole was sensitive to Fill's name.
"Samuel wants you to go there and protect Fill? When was it?"
"Not long after they left. Perhaps after Mr. Green went to the villa by the sea. Mrs. Green, what's
wrong?"
Jacob asked doubtfully.
Nicole seemed to think of something, but she couldn't find the connection.
Samuel asked Jacob to go there and protect Fill, so Samuel had known that Fill was in danger. And
that was when Samuel was at the villa by the sea. That was to say, after Trevin left.
What exactly did Samuel discover that threatened Fill?
Did Fill disappear because of that?
Nicole frowned heavily.
"Trevin said that Fill took away the ancient book and disappeared. Is that true?"
"Yes. I'm also looking for Fill. Now I'm sure that he must be kidnapped."
Nicole was dumbfounded.
"But he's good at fighting. Who do you think can kidnap him?"
Jacob fell silent.
Fill was indeed very good at fighting, even better than Jacob. So, it was very difficult for anyone to
kidnap Fill. However, there were signs that Fill did not intend to take the ancient book for himself, let
alone disappear with it.
This confusing situation caused Nicole and Jacob to remain silent for a moment.
"No matter what, we should try every way to find Fill."
Nicole finally gave the order.
Jacob paused for a moment and asked, "Mrs. Green, can I contact Finn? I've investigated him. A group
of people still follow him wholeheartedly. Finn has been waiting for your instructions."
Nicole narrowed her eyes.
Finn?
Nicole had complicated feelings when she heard his name.
