With this in mind, Nicole wanted to hang up the phone, but Olivia picked up the phone at this time.
"Nicole? Anything happened?"
Olivia was panting.
Nicole suddenly felt envious of Olivia's vitality. She hadn't sweated like this for a long time.
"What are you doing? It sounds like you've done some exercise."
Nicole asked with a faint smile.
Olivia smiled and said, "Yes, I'm taking dancing class. Michael said I'm not in good shape, so he asked
me to take some physique lessons. How are you? I've been so busy that I don't have time to call you."
Nicole was not happy to hear her words.
"Well, I'm a little busy too."
"Alright. Don't be angry with me. I'll treat you to dinner in a few days. The New Year's coming. Probably
Jacob and I will celebrate it at your place. You know, we both don't have any relatives. You're our only
close friends. Shall we spend the New Year together?"
Olivia was still smiling, but Nicole could tell that she liked her current life very much and was full of
vitality.
Nicole smiled and said, "Sure, but we will be with my grandpa at that time. Everyone will be there. You
should come to, too. It would be fun."
"Sure. I'll behave myself then. I have to hang up now. My teacher is calling me over. Let's talk later.
Bye."
Hearing the busy tone, Nicole couldn't help but feel even more empty and disappointed.
She also wanted to be an able woman!
Nicole swore to herself when she saw Samuel walk out of Blair's room.
"How is it?"
She quickly asked.
Samuel and Blair both said, "Not a big deal. We've asked about Joseph's medical skills, and he
absolutely can help Lucas."
"That's good."
Nicole finally relaxed.
As they talked, Lucas and Maddie walked out.
Maddie was obviously reluctant to part with Lucas. Lucas comforted Maddie like a man with a gentle
expression.
Nicole felt that Lucas was never that gentle to her.
Well, why did she suddenly have the illusion that her own son would be taken away by someone else?
Seeing that Nicole was a little disappointed, Samuel hurriedly held her hand and said, "You have me."
His voice wasn't loud, but it was enough for Nicole to hear.
Nicole was instantly comforted.
After Lucas and Maddie bid farewell, Nicole and Samuel brought him home.
Joseph also brought Zoe back.
For a moment, the Green's became lively.
"Lucas, do me a favor."
When Zoe saw Lucas, she hurriedly came to him and pestered him to do her a favor.
Thinking of Lucas' current situation, Nicole said to Zoe, "Zoe, Lucas is a little tired. Can you let him go
back to his room to rest first?"
"What? Lucas, are you sick? You don't look good."
Only then did Zoe notice that Lucas looked awful.
However, Lucas smiled and said, "I'm fine. I'm just a little tired."
"Then go to sleep first. I'll find you when you wake up."
Zoe said as she pushed Lucas to rest.
At his sister's forced kindness, Lucas could not refuse, so he could only go to the bedroom to rest.
Joseph was called to the study by Samuel.
After Zoe came out, she saw that Joseph was no longer around, so she hurriedly asked, "Mommy,
where is Joseph?"
"Daddy has something to talk with Joseph. Come and tell Mommy, did you have a good time at Uncle
Steven's house?"
"No."
Zoe sat down on the sofa dejectedly and pouted, "That Yasmeen is too violent. I don't like her."
"Why don't you like it? Mommy thinks that Yasmeen is very straightforward and lovely."
Nicole sat beside her daughter.
Her concern for Lucas was already not enough, and the same thing could not happen to Zoe.
When Zoe heard Nicole praising Yasmeen, her mouth pouted even more dejectedly.
"Anyway, I just don't like her."
Seeing her dejected appearance, Nicole couldn't help but smile and say, "Let me guess. Is it because
Yasmeen's self-defense is better than yours that you don't like her? You hate her so much because you
can't match her yourself, right?"
"Mommy, how can you say that about me?"
Zoe was depressed because what Nicole said was right.
Nicole stroked Zoe's head and said, "Baby, everyone is good at different things. You don't need to
compare your weaknesses with others' strengths. Besides, there are so many outstanding people in
this world. We just need to be ourselves and let it be. Don't be jealous, for jealousy will make us ugly.
My little princess is the prettiest girl in Mommy's eyes. "
"Really? Am I the prettiest little princess in Mommy's eyes?"
Zoe tilted her head and looked at Nicole's.
"Of course, you are Mommy's sweetheart forever."
Nicole's words obviously pleased Zoe.
She lowered her head embarrassedly and whispered, "I'm sorry, Mommy. I was wrong. I shouldn't be
jealous of Yasmeen. She's really, really good. So is Jasmine. She is really good at computers, just like
my brother. I really want to know who is better, she or my brother.
"Didn't Mommy tell you just now? Don't compare with others. Just be yourself. Besides, our Zoe is so
lovely and lovable. This is also Luo your strength, isn't it?"
"That's right. I'm also very good at eating! Very good at eating! This is also my strength. Yasmeen and
Jasmine can't eat more than me!"
As soon as Zoe said this, Nicole felt like crying.
'Daughter, can being a foodie be considered as an advantage?
However, seeing Zoe's expression of being happy and even wishing to carry forward the eating, Nicole
did not want to strike her.
After they chatted for a while, Zoe felt a little sleepy and yawned.
"Sleepy? Mommy will carry you back to your room to sleep, okay?"
Hearing this, Zoe immediately nodded happily.
"Alright, Mommy. Tell me a bedtime story. It's been a long time since you told me a story last time. Ever
since you and Daddy are together again, you don't like sleeping with me."
Zoe pouted and complained sadly.
Nicole suddenly felt a little embarrassed.
During this period of time, she seemed to have always been with Samuel that she had neglected her
children.
"Alright, Mommy will tell you a bedtime story."
Nicole picked up Zoe and walked towards her room.
Zoe happily clasped Nicole's neck and pressed her face to Nicole's. Then she said very contentedly,
"Mommy, I really like this moment. I want to be Mommy's little princess forever."
"Alright."
Nicole's heart suddenly softened.
She still remembered how she was dying when she was born. Nicole really couldn't imagine that she
could have a complete life with Zoe now.
She thanked Samuel and was glad that she did not give up on Zoe.
After they entered the room, Zoe was extremely sleepy, but she still tried to stay awake to listen to
Nicole's story.
Actually, Nicole knew that Zoe didn't want to hear a story. She just wanted to stay with her for a while
longer.
Nicole got on the bed and directly hugged Zoe in her arms. She said softly, "Mommy will sleep by your
side tonight."
"Really?"
Zoe was so happy that her eyes lit up.
Only then did Nicole realize what a delight a little company of her own could be to a child.
"Really. Close your eyes. Mommy is going to tell a story."
"Okay."
Zoe held Nicole's arm.
With Nicole's pleasant voice, Zoe soon fell asleep.
Nicole looked at her daughter's satisfied face and couldn't help but chuckle.
Samuel told Joseph about Lucas' situation, and Joseph's expression was very serious.
"Daddy, are you sure that Lucas has dissociative identity disorder?"
"I'm pretty sure. Joseph, I'm counting on you for this. No one else should know about this. If possible,
it's best if you don't tell him. You and he will live in the same room from today onwards. And if you can,
take the opportunity to give him hypnosis treatment. Is it okay?"
Samuel's proposal was directly rejected by Joseph.
"Daddy, this is unrealistic. You and I both know how strong Lucas' first personality willpower is. If I want
to hypnotize him, I can't do it without his cooperation."
Although Samuel also had similar concern, he was still a little depressed after hearing Joseph's words.
"Daddy, don't worry. Leave this to me."
Joseph said confidently.
This was the first time Samuel felt that Joseph had grown up.
He was still so tall, but apparently, there had been a qualitative change in his temperament and other
aspects.
"Joseph, thank you."
"Daddy, you don't need to say that."
Joseph smiled faintly and took out a white bottle from his pocket.
"What is this?"
Samuel was a little surprised.
Joseph whispered, "This is the medicine I have developed for you to treat neuralgia. Try it. If you do not
rest assured, you can ask Uncle Blair to check it."
"No need. I naturally believe in the medicine my son made for me."
Samuel smiled faintly and directly ate one in front of Joseph.
Joseph was stunned.
He had thought of many possibilities. After all, he was still a child. It was normal for him to be
speculated and distrusted. Furthermore, it was eatable medicine. It was understandable for adults to be
more cautious, but Samuel did not say anything. He directly ate it in front of him without any doubt.
Joseph suddenly felt warm.
"Daddy, you..."
"It's tasty."
Joseph didn't know how to reply to Samuel's words. This was the first time he had heard someone say
that the medicine was tasty. However, he was very touched.
"Daddy, don't worry, I will definitely cure Lucas."
"I believe you."
Samuel gave Joseph absolute trust.
When the two of them walked out of the study, Lucas, Zoe and Nicole were gone.
Joseph went to Lucas' room. Samuel went back to his bedroom. He did not see Nicole, so he went to
Zoe's room, only to see his wife and her daughter was sleeping soundly together.
For a moment, Samuel felt a little depressed.
He seems to have been abandoned by his wife.
What should he do?
Did he have to sleep alone tonight?
"Daddy, don't worry, | will definitely cure Lucas."
"| believe you."
Samuel gave Joseph absolute trust.
When the two of them walked out of the study, Lucas, Zoe and Nicole were gone.
Joseph went to Lucas' room. Samuel went back to his bedroom. He did not see Nicole, so he went to
Zoe's room, only to see his wife and her daughter was sleeping soundly together.
For a moment, Samuel felt a little depressed.
He seems to have been abandoned by his wife.
