It was somewhat cold outside.
Samuel held Nicole's small hands tightly and entered the villa with her.
It was also a little cold in the villa.
Nicole looked at the European style decoration and the fireplace and felt delighted.
"No servants?"
"Yes, just we two."
Samuel threw his coat onto the sofa and got up to light the fireplace.
Soon it got warm in the room.
"I'll do the cleaning."
Nicole also took off her coat and went to the bathroom to get a rag to clean up.
They cleaned the room like ordinary couples.
It has been a long time since Nicole had had exercises. So she got tired soon.
She looked at Samuel shoveling the snow at the door. The way he waved his shovel was really
handsome.
'It's his birthday.'
Nicole got up and went to the kitchen. Seeing that flour and everything had been prepared, she rolled
up her sleeves and began to make a bowl of noodle for Samuel.
After Samuel cleaned up the snow outside, he was feeling so hot.
As soon as he entered the house, he saw Nicole making noodle for him. So he put up a beautiful smile.
Birthdays used to be nothing special to him. In the past, Laurel had always been abroad, so Zama
would celebrate he and Vincent's birthday for them. At that time, he had not understood why Zama
would be so concerned about their birthdays. Now that he knew, he felt so pitiful.
Later, he had found out that he was just a tool. So he had thought that his birthday was a disgrace, a
symbol of his failed life. But now Nicole was busy preparing something for his birthday.
If it could be like this every year, it would be nice to have a birthday.
A lamp, a woman, and a kitchen were enough to make him feel warm.
Samuel walked over and hugged Nicole from behind.
The familiar aura made Nicole smile.
"The noodles will be ready soon."
"Thank you, Nicole."
Samuel placed his chin on Nicole's shoulder.
Nicole's heart softened.
"Come on. Wait outside. It'll be ready in a moment."
"Alright."
Samuel reluctantly let go of Nicole.
Nicole quickly brought it out.
"Come on, honey. Time for your noodles."
Nicole smiled as she looked at Samuel.
There were no servants, no children, but only the two of them. They were like ordinary couples, living a
simple, calm, yet peaceful and harmonious life.
Samuel sat down at the table.
He picked up his chopsticks and took a bite.
"How is it?"
"Delicious."
Samuel spoke gently and then ate all the noodles.
Seeing that Samuel had eaten it up, Nicole was very satisfied.
She prepared a bowl of noodles for herself too. Because she was really hungry, so she ate a little fast.
Afraid that she would choke, Samuel hurriedly poured her a glass of water.
After they finished eating, Samuel went to wash the dishes. Nicole didn't refuse.
A couple was supposed to help each other in their daily lives.
Nicole was watching TV on the sofa.
After Samuel finished washing the dishes and tidied up the kitchen, he came over and sat down. Nicole
subconsciously stretched out her feet to him.
"Cold."
Her skin was a little red.
Although there was fire in the house, it wouldn't get warm in the house in such a short time.
Samuel held her feet and put them onto his belly.
The warmth made Nicole slightly surprised.
"Aren't you cold?"
"No."
Samuel said with a smile.
Nicole felt so sweet.
"What are you watching?"
"A love story between a fairy and a soldier in the heaven."
Samuel frowned slightly.
'What the hell?'
'A fairy?'
'What is that?'
Samuel seldom watched TV. He had spent his time watching financial reports and stock market trends.
Now that Nicole was so immersed in it, he also turned to watch it.
He happened to see the scene where the female lead wanted to celebrate Christmas and constantly
gave the male lead hints about where to date.
"This male lead is cute. Every girl would like to go out on a date with her lover at Christmas and he's
pretending that he doesn't know. He would cry when another man took his girlfriend away," Nicole said
with a smile.
Just as Nicole was saying that, another male character happened to hear what the female lead had
said and said, "I'll accompany you then."
The male lead's face instantly made Nicole laugh out.
"See? I told you! Don't pretend and don't ignore your girlfriend's request!"
Samuel also smiled.
'Christmas.'
'So women like Christmas.'
'Shoot! Isn't it tomorrow?'
The temperature in the room had risen up, but Nicole didn't want to take her feet off Samuel's belly.
The show was on, occasionally accompanied by Nicole's laughter. This kind of calm happiness really
made people feel relaxed and attached.
Samuel took out Nicole's feet, which caused Nicole's dissatisfaction immediately. However, she only
pouted and then continued to watch TV.
Samuel went to check the refrigerator and saw that there were some fresh fruits. He took some out and
washed them. Then, he put them on a fruit tray and placed it on the table in front of Nicole.
"That's too far."
Nicole was having fun watching the show. When she reached out for a fruit, she found that the table
was a little far away.
Samuel shook his head dotingly and sat beside her, holding the fruit plate in his hand.
Nicole again placed her snow-white feet on Samuel's thigh, leaned lazily on the sofa, and then opened
her mouth.
Samuel shook his head and laughed. He picked up the fork and began to feed her.
"Wow, sweet!"
Nicole narrowed her eyes and smiled. Then she turned to watch the drama again.
Samuel also quietly watched it.
When he saw the male lead holding so many balloons and flowers standing in front of the cinema like a
fool, Samuel frowned slightly.
'Isn't this stupid?'
However, Nicole happily said, "Wow, so romantic!"
Her eyes flickered with yearning.
Samuel's expression changed a little.
'Romantic?'
'What kind of romance is it?'
'It looks so dumb, okay?'
'Standing there like that is so foolish.'
Samuel was a little upset.
"I remember that I have something to deal with. You have fun."
Samuel stood up.
"Alright."
Nicole knew that he was busy, so she was already satisfied that he could spare some time to be with
her. Thus she did not force him to accompany her to watch TV dramas.
After Samuel went to the study, he immediately called Ernesto.
"How do you spend Christmas with girls?"
Ernesto was confused.
What?
He said awkwardly, "Mr. Green, I'm still single."
"So?"
"So I don't know."
Samuel was upset.
"You deserve to be single."
Then Samuel hung up the phone.
Ernesto didn't know what to say.
Did Mr. Green just say he deserved to be single?
What did he mean by that?
He hadn't had time for a date!
Samuel didn't care about Ernesto's mood. He frowned and thought for a moment. Who should he call?
Blair?
That brat would definitely laugh at him.
Samuel thought about it and called Steven in the end.
"What's wrong?"
Steven's sounded sleepy. He must have just woken up.
Samuel paused for a moment and asked, "How did you spend Christmas with Ashley?"
"Christmas? What the hell is that?"
Steven stretched his waist. What he asked made Samuel understand that he had asked the wrong
person.
"It's fine. You can go back to sleep."
Then he was going to hang up the phone.
However, Steven whispered, "Are you going to spend Christmas with Nicole?"
"Yes."
Samuel felt a little embarrassed.
He had been married to Nicole for eight years. But this was the first time they had celebrated Christmas
together.
Steven yawned and said, "Women like surprises. If you do the same thing as others do, like sending
flowers or balloons, then that will be lame."
Samuel subconsciously nodded.
'That's right.'
'Standing there with balloons was like an idiot.'
Hearing no objection, Steven knew that Samuel must agree with him.
He felt a little sore.
He had been sent by Ashley to learn how to fly an airplane. And the most stupid thing was that he had
actually come.
By the end of this day, his entire body was about to fall apart.
Steven shook his aching shoulders and thought for a moment before saying, "Maybe you should put on
Santa Claus clothes and propose to her. Women love this and she will definitely be touched."
Samuel didn't know what to say.
"Are you sure this is better than flowers and balloons?"
"Of course. You will be wearing Santa Claus clothes and a mask so that nobody will recognize you. It's
better than you standing there and being watched anyway, right? You in women's clothes have just
been on the trending list. You don't want to do that again for selling flowers and balloons, right?"
It could be heard that Steven was smiling.
Men in women's clothes!
He hadn't expected Samuel would do that.
Samuel could clearly hear Steven's smile, and he smiled, too.
"Maybe you can have a try."
"What?"
Samuel hung up the phone immediately.
Wear Santa Claus clothes?
He couldn't help but shiver.
When Samuel went downstairs, Nicole was still watching TV and laughed occasionally.
Such a peaceful and warm life made Samuel so assured.
He walked over and Nicole subconsciously leaned over.
"Finished?"
"Yes, but I was mocked."
Samuel said dejectedly.
Nicole was surprised.
"Mocked? By whom?"
She turned her head to look at Samuel's gloomy expression and got somewhat angry.
Who would dare to make him upset on his birthday?
Samuel sighed and shook his head, "Forget it. Just watch your TV."
But how could Nicole continue to watch TV?
"I want to eat some apples. Help me get one."
Samuel wouldn't reject Nicole's request.
He put his phone on the sofa and got up to the kitchen.
