After the two finished their meal, Samuel smiled slightly and said, "Do you feel sleepy? Need a nap?"
Nicole glared at him and said, "So this is what you're up to."
Samuel responded with a smile. He picked up Nicole and entered the room.
The afternoon breeze was warm while blowing on them, the same as their inner feelings.
After Nicole was put down on the bed, she was waiting for Samuel's next move, but he only cuddled
her and whispered, "Have a sweet dream."
She was surprised, but when she saw Samuel's dark circles, Nicole still nodded.
Shortly after, both of them fell asleep. Tranquility reigned over the room.
Lucas encountered Silver Fox. He originally thought that the guy just happened to use the same code
name as the Silver Fox he knew, but when the hacker provoked him with his techniques, Lucas was
completely overjoyed.
One tried to flee and the other chased after. They both enjoyed themselves.
And Joseph never thought that there would be a doctor in this club.
What really surprised him was the doctor's special insights, which refreshed his mind.
Zoe indulged herself in the Food Zone, and as expected, she ate too much. She then went jogging in
the gym before Fill took her to rest in her room.
Everyone seemed to be so relaxed and they got rid of all their loads.
It was already evening when Nicole woke up.
She yawned when seeing the afterglow of the setting sun shedding on the bed.
Samuel had gone.
Nicole was a little disappointed, but when she thought of Samuel's identity, she drove that trace of
disappointment away.
She got out of bed and put on her shoes.
Nicole came to the courtyard.
One or two plum blossoms had silently bloomed.
All of that happened in an afternoon. That was amazing.
Nicole strolled through the courtyard and the pavilion, marveling at the changes of this house over the
hundreds of years.
After Samuel finished his work in the study, he came out and saw Nicole leisurely walking in the
courtyard. Her peaceful face always eased the restlessness in his heart.
He quietly walked over and held Nicole in his arms from behind.
Struck by the familiar scent, Nicole was stunned.
"You're home."
"Yes."
Samuel placed his chin on her shoulder, so carefully as not to put on any pressure.
"There's a night market nearby. Do you want to go?"
"Great."
Nicole was quite interested.
Girls liked night markets.
She told herself.
Suddenly, Samuel's eyes burned like fire, which puzzled Nicole.
"What's wrong?"
She lowered her head and saw that her clothes weren't tied properly. Below her fair neck, her plump
chest was revealed in front of Samuel.
"Well, I didn't mean to."
The moment Nicole uttered the words, she couldn't regret more.
She just said she didn't mean to.
What exactly was she talking about?
It sounded like she was trying to seduce Samuel.
A faint smile flashed across Samuel's eyes, and he tightened up his arms which were holding Nicole.
"Yeah, I know you didn't mean to. You had to, right?"
He had thought that the long journey might tire Nicole out, so he didn't do anything to her. But now, it
seemed that she was unsatisfied.
Of course, Samuel was very happy to satisfy her need.
Hearing Samuel's words, Nicole hurriedly shook her head, "No, I didn't."
However, the flush on her cheeks and her hoarse voice were tickling Samuel's heart, where desire was
blazing.
"You didn't. But I did."
Desire manifested itself in Samuel's deep and hoarse voice.
He suddenly picked up Nicole and carried her back into the room.
"Samuel, don't."
Nicole pushed him, but she was pressed down by Samuel.
Finally, Nicole's strength got run out by Samuel's passionate love.
She lay on Samuel's body, having no intention to move. Her entire body sored.
"You beast."
Nicole felt Samuel was much fiercer than before. He used to be thoughtful and took care of her body.
But just now, he seemed to have gone crazy. He did it as he pleased. She almost couldn't bear his
strong passion.
Strangely, Nicole discovered that she actually liked Samuel's wildness.
Under his cold and distant appearance, there was wild love and passion. That was an unusual and
exciting experience.
Samuel also noticed her pleasure in her voice and smiled evilly.
"Beast? That's not what your body told me."
"Shut up!"
Nicole hastened to cover Samuel's mouth. Her face flushed like a cooked shrimp.
Samuel chuckled, but when he saw the bruises on Nicole's body, his eyes grew dark.
Did he hurt her?
"Let me take a look."
"No."
Nicole was too bashful to endure Samuel's staring.
However, Samuel lifted the blanket straightly. When Nicole's injured body was revealed in front of him,
he felt the anger.
This damn wildness!
His fingers gently stroked the bruises and he apologized in a low voice, "Sorry, Nicole, I lost control."
"It's fine. Don't blame yourself. I'm fine. You know, my body is sensitive. A little bit of collision will cause
the bruise. Don't worry."
Nicole consoled him.
There was a Golden Bug in her body. She didn't know its nature. If possible, Nicole would like to take it
out. However, it was inappropriate to say this right now.
Samuel did not say anything else, but hugged Nicole tightly, trying to seek some comfort.
Nicole also kept silent and she stretched out her arms to hug him.
The two of them lay there quietly with an unprecedented peace of mind.
Nicole didn't know when she fell asleep again.
Samuel couldn't help but smile when he saw her sleeping soundly.
He covered the blanket over Nicole before he got up and went to the bathroom.
After freshening up, Samuel casually put on a nightgown and went to the study.
When Fill had a video call with him, he saw Samuel's casual nightgown. He was surprised and then
smiled evilly. He said, "I was wondering why you leave the children in the club. It turned out you just
went back to have a good time with Nicole."
"Looks like you got nothing else to do?"
Samuel asked lazily. And the small movement of his eye corner also passed on an oppressive pressure
to Fill. Even though they were talking via the video, Fill was still unable to withstand it.
"Fine, I won't tease you anymore, okay? However, you're really different from before. This Golden Bug
is somewhat miraculous."
"If you like it, I don't mind giving it to you."
Samuel casually lit a cigarette, and his handsome face became even more charming amidst the
smoke.
Fill hurriedly shook his head.
"Forget it, I can't afford it."
"Cut to the chase."
Samuel said indifferently, without the slightest bit of impatience, but nobody could ignore his imposing
manner.
Fill then became serious and said, "Someone is following Ballard."
"What are the details?"
Samuel frowned slightly.
After Nicole told him that Ballard seemed to be threatened, he asked Fill to look into it.
The Sky Group could manage to know everything in this realm.
Fill whispered, "They are not locals, but all of them have a good command in martial arts. Also,
Ballard's leg was not broken by himself, but by others. It is said that he owed a gambling debt and his
leg got broken when he was being pursued. I sent someone to look into it. It turns out Ballard is not into
gambling, and there is something weird about the casino. It's under investigation."
Samuel fiddled with a pen in his hand and whispered, "Tim should be arriving soon, right?"
"Landing in an hour."
"Tell Tim to take care of it. If there's a need, give him a hand. After all, he is my uncle-in-law."
Samuel's words caused Fill to pause for a moment, then he smiled and replied, "Alright."
"Arrange for the children to come over. Tomorrow I will take my wife and children out. By the way, ask
Camila to come over early tomorrow and help me put on some makeup."
Samuel's words surprised Fill.
"Oh, you want to put on some makeup? This is surprising news."
"I can't stand my bare face."
Samuel said nonchalantly, but that aroused the listener's jealousy.
"I'd like to have your bare face."
Fill said sullenly.
Fill was also good-looking, but whenever he was with Samuel, he felt inferior.
Hearing his envious remarks, Samuel gave him a faint smile and said, "Aren't you afraid that Whitney
won't recognize you?"
Fill shut his mouth after hearing this.
However, Samuel went on to ask again, "Are you really tempted by that fake one?"
This time, Fill did not answer immediately.
"Be careful, or you will get trapped."
Samuel reminded him.
"Yes, I get it."
Fill was unwilling to continue the conversation, so Samuel did not ask again. Everyone had their own
secret love. Whether it was real or fake, only the lover could know.
All he needed to do was to warn Fill, but Samuel wouldn't interfere with his affairs.
The two of them kept chatting for a while before Samuel hung up the video call.
He asked the housekeeper to prepare dinner and cooked some soup for Nicole to replenish some
nutrients.
There were servants and housekeepers in the courtyard. However, in the afternoon, they left in the
request of Samuel. Now that the children were coming back, more hands would be needed to take care
of the children.
Nicole was awakened by the ringing phone.
Tim's name on the phone brought her back to her senses.
"Tim, have you arrived? I'll go pick you up."
Nicole hurried to say, and at the same time, cursing Samuel for being too fierce and not waking her up.
Tim answered softly, "It's OK. Samuel has sent someone to pick me up. I'll go see my father directly.
Evelyn will go with me. Help me keep an eye on her."
"Alright."
Nicole nodded. After hanging up the phone, she hurriedly got up and washed up. And she suddenly
noticed a change in the blood jade on her neck.
