Chapter 264: Reluctant to Leave Her
Chapter 264: Reluctant to Leave Her
Looking at Nicole's confused eyes, Samuel suddenly didn't know how to tell her that she was not Mr.
Bush and Mrs. Bush's
biological child, but he had to tell her about that. After all, Audrey had lost so much for her.
Seeing Samuel in distress, Nicole whispered, "Is there something I don't know about these days?"
"Do you remember who took you away from the Minister Shaw?" Content property of NôvelDra/ma.Org.
Samuel didn’t want to mention Viola, but he had to. After all, there were things he couldn't hide from
Nicole.
"Yes."
Speaking of Viola, Nicole was calm. She wasn't fond of Viola, but she understood why she had given
herself to Allen in the first
place. Fortunately, she was not too evil and did not treat her too bad.
Samuel saw the dislike in Nicole's eyes and smiled sadly. "You are sisters,’ he said.
"What?"
Nicole thought she had misheard.
"My parents just gave birth to a daughter, and they haven't stayed in America. Viola has nothing to do
with me, so stop joking,
OK?"
"Do you think I'm joking?"
Samuel gave a helpless sigh and then told Nicole that Mr. Bush and Mrs. Bush had gone to the police
station to have a
paternity test, which meant to tell Nicole that Mr. Bush and Mrs. Bush were actually not related to her.
It would be easy to explain to her now. After all, Nicole knew about Xander.
Nicole was silent for a long time, and Samuel didn't disturb her. He just held her in his arms as if when
he owned her, he owned
the whole world.
After a long time, Nicole spoke.
"Has it been verified that I am the child of the Don family?"
“Audrey had a paternity test. Do you remember drawing blood at the embassy?’
When Samuel said that, Nicole remembered it.
She nodded.
It seemed that the matter had been proved.
She was a bit clam, and she always had a kind feeling for Audrey, but it didn't occur to her that the
woman was her mother.
Nicole didn't know what to say when she thought of how much Audrey had suffered these years.
Although she knew that
Audrey was her mother, she found it difficult to call her mother. Some emotions couldn't be established
simply by blood.
She sighed and said, "Did my parents know it?"
"Yes, but they were shocked."
"I will always be their child."
So decisive was Nicole that Samuel knew what she meant.
"Rest assured, Mrs. Don said you could use the surname Bush, and you're still Nicole, but your identity
should be applied by the
Don family. It is up to you whether you should live in the Don family.”
When Samuel said that, Nicole's nose went sour.
She didn't think the Don family would be so reasonable.
Although the Don family was her own family, Mr. Bush and Mrs. Bush had been caring for her and
giving her love for over
twenty years. If it were not for Mr. Bush and Mrs. Bush, she would not be what she was now.
The Don family, the Bush family, and Audrey were related together because of Nicole. The relationship
was subtle, but it was
not unacceptable.
Nicole soon accepted this fact.
She whispered, "I can't go out for the moment, so please take care of them."
"Don't you go back to see Zoe? She may have the operation tomorrow, and Lucas. He is back. Why
don't you come back with
me and have a look at them?"
Samuel knew how much Nicole cared about her children, but now she would rather stay here for
herself and for the Green
family.
Nicole also wanted to go back.
She hadn't seen Lucas for a long time.
They'd been inseparable for the past five years, and now they'd been apart for so long. How could she
not want to see him?
But if she went back now, all the arrangements were out of order, and her spies would find out all about
it. Her efforts would be in
vain.
As long as the spies hadn't been eliminated, Lucas or Zoe or Samuel would face threat.
Nicole could not bear to see her children go missing or be kidnapped again.
She had to be strong, strong enough to be able to protect her children, but she also couldn't allow
herself to be a threat to
their lives.
Nicole thought carefully and whispered, "I trust that with you around, you'll make them safe, won't
you?"
"I can keep them safe, but what about you? Nicole, I can't take care of both, so why don't I just let the
Don family..."
"I can do it myself."
Nicole stopped Samuel and rejected the help from the Don family.
"Samuel, there are the Green family's business, and no one else can do anything about it. You said you
are going to marry me
again, and when this is over, you have to do it in front of all the Seapolis City.”
"Fine!"
Samuel was reluctant to let her stay here, but he also knew Nicole insisted on staying here.
She was not the one who only waited for him to protect her.
These years’ hardship had made Nicole strong enough to be the mistress of the Green family.
"Sleep with me for a while, and leave quietly in the morning. Don't let me know about it. I'm afraid I
won't let you go."
Nicole rested her head in Samuel's arms, listened to his heartbeat, and wished that time had stopped.
They loved each other for so long, but they didn't have much time to be together. They had left each
other for five years, and
now they were together, but they still couldn't live a comfortable life.
It was so good to sleep together. Maybe every woman would like to have such a stable life, right?
Nicole hugged Samuel tightly around the waist.
Samuel felt so distressed for her.
What he owed this woman was more than a happy and peaceful life!
"Go to sleep. I'm not going anywhere. I'll be right here with you tonight."
"Yes!"
Nicole smiled contentedly. She wanted to talk more to Samuel, but her exhaustion and aches had
made her feel tired and
soon, she fell asleep.
Samuel was sad to see her so tired.
He really wanted to bear all the burdens for her, but he also knew that if he wanted to be with Nicole,
he had to let her go her
own way.
Starting tomorrow, they would be going through their own hardships. He might have left Nicole alone
for his daughter, but
was he really going to leave her alone?
Samuel knew he couldn't do that.
He held Nicole tight, as if to rub Nicole into his own blood, but he knew he couldn't.
The time they spent together was happy but short.
And the night was fleeting.
At four o ‘clock in the morning, Samuel, with his sleepless eyes open, greedily looked at Nicole again.
He lowered his head and kissed her forehead.
He had to leave now!
It would take time to fly back from the base and he couldn't let anyone know he had been here.
Nicole said that there might be people from Zama on the base. He was worried about this, but he had
to deal with this matter
before leaving.
Samuel gently let go of Nicole.
It was still dark and cold outside.
Samuel covered Nicole with the quilt and turned up the temperature before leaving.
The moment he closed the door, Nicole opened her eyes. She had been awake all the time.
There were tears in her eyes, but she was her tears back. As he left, she said nothing, nor did she saw
him off. But the moment she saw Samuel close the door, she closed her eyes again and rested, but a
line of tears came out of her eyes.
She was reluctant to let him go!
She wanted to get up and held him tightly and told him that she didn’t want him to leave.
As Samuel came out of Nicole's room, he felt a cold wind blowing in his face, with a kind of loneliness
that left him no longer
as cool as before.
He used to be able to do whatever he wanted, but now with Nicole by his side and the kids behind him,
he couldn't make any
mistake.
Samuel quickly entered at Macon's room.
Macon noticed that someone had entered the room and wanted to turn on the light, but he heard
Samuel whispering, "Don't
turn on the light. Don't let anyone know that I came to see you."
"Mr. Samuel?"
Macon wondered why Samuel was in his room at that moment.
Samuel told Macon without further ado what Nicole had told him, and Macon was shocked.
"There are Zama's men are at the base? How is that possible? We picked the men for the base
ourselves. How..."
"We picked Zac and Petty when they were kids. Are they spies as well? If I guess it right, they should
be connected to Zama.
Zac is dead, but Petty is still alive, and her missing must be related to Zama, so go look for Petty. Now
Nicole's back, so are the kids. I'm about to have surgery, and you can't let those people hurt Nicole.
Even though Nicole is casting a net, I can't be an onlooker. Everything here must be centered around
Nicole's safety, got it?"
There was no doubt Samuel gave Nicole the entire base.
It was his last strength, and instead of protecting himself, he gave Nicole his last resort. Even he knew
that he would be in
danger when he was on the operating table, he still put all his strength to protect Nicole.
Macon knew how important Nicole was to him and wanted to say something, but after all he said
nothing but nodded. There
was subtle feeling in Macon’s eyes, but no one could see what was on his mind.
"Are you leaving?"
"Yes! I would sneak out later. Now that Zama’s men are at the base, I'm not leaving by helicopter. I
would leave by boat alone.
It won't attract anyone's attention. I leave everything here in your hand."
Samuel turned around and left. Macon wanted to get up and saw him off, but Samuel stopped him.
After leaving Macon's room, Samuel took a look at Nicole's room. He was very reluctant to leave, but
he resolutely turned
around and plunged into the Back Sea. He suddenly felt that there were eyes staring at him, not
knowing if it was his illusion.
