Chapter 188: I Would Stay with You

Jacob left, but Samuel did not come in. He knew that Nicole was in a bad mood. Anyone who
encountered this, could not calmly accept. Like her, it was better. At least she was not that depressed.



Samuel comforted himself, but still felt the pain.



He wanted to smoke, but refrained.



When Laurel came in, she saw her son like this and asked in a low voice, "What's wrong with you? Did
you quarrel?"



He shook his head and said, "I would rather we had a fight at least so she would not shut herself off.”



"Give her time. Any woman going through something like this would be devastated. I will tell Joseph not
to bring Zoe here in these days. Let her rest in peace, and that is what the Green family owes her.”



Laurel was also a woman and she knew that what a blow it would be for a woman to lose her child and
then have something like this happen to her.





"If she is still sad, I will comfort her. Okay?"



Laurel was satisfied with this daughter-in-law.



He shook his head and said, "We can take care of this by ourselves. Mom, don't worry about us. When
I get the results of your physical exam, whatever it is, you are going to follow my instruction.”



Laurel smiled and shook her head.



"So much has happened to you. Don't worry about me. Let's wait until the results come out.’



After Laurel left, Samuel was left alone at the door again.



He stood here and kept looking in. But it was quiet that he felt uneasy.



“Nicole, are you still here? Nicole?"





Samuel was distracted.



He started knocking, but no one answered him. He was so scared and opened the door, seeing that
Nicole was retching on the toilet.



There was a glass of water on the table and some of water stains had spilled. Obviously, she wanted to
drink water, but she could not stand vomiting again.



Samuel felt sorry for her.



He quickly stepped forward and patted her back, hoping she would feel better.



"If you really can't stand it, give it up. And don't make things difficult for yourself. The doctor also said
that we have to treat this disease with patience. I will ask the doctor to give you some nourishing liquid
first. Can we treat it little by little?”



Nicole panted and sat straight down on the floor. She looked at Samuel and said, "How long? A week?
A month? A year? I can't let myself go on like this and I have to stand up on my own. I have Zoe and
have to find Lucas. Also, I want to stay with you for my whole life. However, I don't want to accompany
you in my current state. I have my pride, do you understand?"





There were tears in her eyes.



She tried her best but why she could not recover.



Why?



This sense of failure made her defeated.



She didn't want to be his burden. She wanted to walk side with him, and could tell everyone in public
that she was the wife of Samuel and was worthy of him.



However, everything was bad, made she powerless.



Samuel knew her pride.



He picked up her and walked back to the bed, whispering, "I can give you time to pick up your pride
and get you back to where you were before. But Nicole, you should remember that you can't hurt



yourself. Promise me, okay? I feel sore when you hurt yourself, do you know?"



"I can't overcome it unless I face it.”



“What happened? Could you tell me? I will overcome with you by your side!”



Samuel was sad to look Nicole like this.



She was strong.



But it hurt Samuel as she took all the pain herself.



"If you bear the pain yourself, it would crush you down like a mountain. But if you share it with me, you
will feel much easier. We are family. What else cant we share? Or do you think I will abhor you?"



Samuel did not want to shout at her but he could not control himself.





Now Nicole had shut her feeling from others and did not listen to anything unless one day she opened
her mind to Samuel again.



She did not speak, just sat there biting her lip, with tear in her eyes.



He suddenly relented.



And he could not be harsh with her.



He hugged Nicole tightly and whispered, "Please tell me what should be done?"



Nicole tightly held him and wanted to apology, but she felt helpless.



The gloomy vibe almost overwhelmed him when his phone rang.



He took out his phone and saw it was Mike. Then, he let go of Nicole and said, "I am going out to
answer a phone call.”





“Ok’



Nicole did not stop him.



He was afraid to let she hear things about Allen. For fear that it would arouse her bad memory again,
he had to go out.



He came out and called back.



"What's wrong?"



"Did you save her?”



Mike was worried.



Samuel said in a low voice, "Yes."





“Let's meet. She is my sister-in-law after all.”



"She is out of shape. I don't think we will be seeing each other for a while.”



His voice was low, with a slight ache.



Mike slightly frowned.



"What's wrong? What happened? Did Allen rape her?”



The question was the first that came to his mind.



Samuel shook his head and said, “No, it is something else. Have you received the message that Jacob
sent to you?"



That's why I called you. Fallen Paradise Club, you can't buy it. It has a strong background. Even my
dad has to consider it. Why do you want to buy this company? You can't manage it well. Do you intend
to buy the company legitimately? If it is the latter, don't take into account that the company wouldn't



have many customers if it were properly run, and that there are a series of gangs and networks that
you are not going to offend someone alone.”

After Samuel heard that, he frowned.



"Is there no other way?"



“No, it is not easy to buy Fallen Paradise Club. No one knows how powerful the company is. Why
hasn't anyone shut down such a big trafficking company? How does the club know that every day there
is a new product, but still act according to the rule? Why do you buy it?"



Mike was curious.



Samuel was not interested at criminal syndicate. Why did he want to buy Fallen Paradise Club?



For this question, Samuel thought and said, "I suspect she was punished in Fallen Paradise Club,
which had affected her mental condition. Her illness is complex and she won't say anything. But I need
to know the reason that I can help her.”





*So it is. If you just want to know the rules and the criminal code, I think I might be able to help you. But
I advise you don't buy Fallen Paradise Club.”



After hearing his saying, Samuel nodded.



"Ok, I just want to know what I want to know.’



"Wait for my information. I have to use my human resources to get this. I will call you if I get some
information”



"Ok.”



Samuel hung on the phone. He suddenly felt that it was more complex in America. Thanks to Mike, it
was hard for Samuel to deal with this thing.



He also didn't know if Allen knew that Nicole was missing. Allen would probably not give up her.



Samuel immediately called Jacob in and let him strengthen the security system.





After doing this, everyone was nervous, even Nicole too.



She knew that Allen and Samuel could get along with each other.



In fact, after learning the truth of Allen, she could not treat him like before. But five years ago, he saved
her and also taught her children, she could not forget.



Nicole forced herself to drink several times, and then had been throwing up over and over again. At last
she collapsed completely.



Samuel did not say anything. Although he was concerned about Nicole, he could not stop her.



She was stubborn.



Samuel knew her character five years ago. Otherwise, she would not have been into him for these
years and never looked back.





But he was concerned about her.



After Nicole threw up, Samuel took the trouble to carry her back to bed and then wiped her body, and
even let the doctor give her nourishment when necessary.



After three days, Nicole had no spirit at all, and her condition did not even improve.



She looked at Samuel, hopelessly said, "Do you think I am being unreasonable?”



“No, just do what you want to do. I have told you that I will stay with you."



In these three days, Samuel also lost his weight. Although he tried his best to keep his best condition in
front of Nicole, he was in bad spirit.



Lying on the bed, Nicole said weekly, "Hire a psychologist to help me.”



Finally, she answered Samuel's request.





Although she wanted to solve the problem by herself, she failed.



She felt Samuel's caring. In these three days, she was in bad spirit, so did Samuel.



She didn't want to continue to torture them.



If there was no Samuel by her side, she could insist on for three days and even a month. But now she
found that she cared about him and didn't want to him to pine away for this.



This was not what she wanted.
