Chapter 949 She Would Never Show up Again

Samuel met Olivia at the door.

"What happened to Nicole?" Olivia asked.

Samuel said coldly, "She has a fever."

"A fever? Oh my, it's all my fault. I shouldn't ask her out with me yesterday. I shouldn't take her to the
bar."

Hearing this, Samuel stopped abruptly.

"What did you say? Nicole was there with you in the bar yesterday?"

Samuel's face was very frightening. Olivia was shocked and said, "Yeah, we sang together in the bar at
first. But then Nicole said that she felt a little uncomfortable and went to the bathroom alone."

"When did it happen?"

Olivia was at a loss, facing Samuel's sudden query.

"I don't remember. But when we went on stage, I glanced at my phone. Maybe it was around two
o'clock. It was five past two!"

Hearing Olivia's words, Samuel seemed to be more annoyed.

'Five past two?' he wondered.

He and Alisa entered the bar at ten past two. So Nicole saw them.

'This was why Nicole became so upset.' Samuel figured out the reason.

'Damn it!' Samuel was angry.



He wished he could fish Alisa out of the sea and whip her.

Olivia realized that Samuel was angry. She thought that Nicole fell ill because of her. She hurriedly
apologized and said, "I'm so sorry. I promise that it won't happen again."

"Not your fault. Come to the hospital together and take care of her."

"What?"

Olivia thought she misheard Samuel.

She wondered why Samuel asked her to take care of Nicole.

It had always been Samuel who took care of Nicole.

Olivia suddenly recalled that Nicole once told her about Samuel having an affair.

Olivia squinted at Samuel.

"Samuel, tell me the truth. Are you having an affair?"

"No."

Samuel answered firmly. He then stopped talking to Olivia and left.

Olivia was stunned.

'Samuel seldom told lies and cared so much about Nicole. He wouldn't cheat on Nicole.' Olivia thought.

She didn't understand and followed them worriedly.

Samuel took Nicole to Steven's house.



"Where's Ashley?" he asked.

Steven was surprised that Samuel suddenly came and looked for his wife.

"No, you can't just barge into my house and ask for my wife without my permission. I am still here."

"Stop talking nonsense. My wife has a fever. Ask Ashley to take a look."

Samuel placed Nicole on the sofa.

Nicole had already fallen asleep because of the high fever.

Steven was amazed and said, "My wife is the Greatest Global Scalpel. But she specializes in surgery.
She just returned home and has slept for a while after the surgery. It's just a fever. You can take Nicole
to the hospital!"

"There are too many germs in the hospital. My wife is pregnant. She needs protection."

"Your wife needs protection. My wife should be working hard for her whole life, right?"

Steven disagreed with Samuel.

Samuel stopped arguing with him and said, "Will you help me or not?"

"No. My wife operated on Nicole's younger brother last night. It was almost midnight when she came
back. She was called for emergency surgery at 5 a.m.. She did three consecutive operations a day.
Now that she has just returned and slept. She needs rest. I can't wake her up. Samuel, please be a
good man. It's just a fever. Why don't you take her to the hospital? Or I can call a family doctor for you."

Steven intended to make a phone call, but he heard a noise from the room upstairs. It was Ashley
walking out and rubbing her hair.



"Why is it so noisy?" Ashley asked.

"Nothing. You should go back to sleep."

Steven hurried Ashley into resting.

But Ashley saw Nicole lying on the sofa.

"What happened to Nicole?"

Ashley asked and walked down quickly.

Steven's face turned gloomy.

He said, "Go back to sleep. We can handle it. I'll call the family doctor and he'll be there soon."

"Don't call the doctor. Nicole will probably become worse before he can arrive. I am afraid that the baby
may be affected. Go to the guest room and get my medical chest." Ashley said.

Ashley walked directly to Nicole and touched her forehead with both hands. The fever made her frown.

"Why is Nicole having such a high fever?" she asked.

Samuel pursed his lips and didn't say anything. But Ashley saw Samuel's self-blaming expression.

"Did you upset her?" she asked.

"It's a misunderstanding. But I can't explain it right now."

Samuel's words made Steven depressed.

"It's the first time I've seen you quarrel like this," Steven said.



"We didn't quarrel. We didn't even question or argue with each other," Samuel replied.

Samuel's face darkened again.

Ashley sighed and said, "Nicole always hides everything in her heart. Such a woman is easy to get
hurt. You should know her personality and stop messing up things."

"I know," Samuel said.

Samuel never listened to a lecture. But he listened to Ashley and would follow her words.

Steven felt annoyed when he saw this.

"What are you doing here?" he questioned.

"Why are you talking so much nonsense? Just get the medical chest for me."

Ashley turned her head and gazed at Steven with her pair of beautiful phoenix eyes. Steven felt a little
frustrated.

"Ashley, I am your husband, not your servant," Steven complained.

"You're not as good as a servant. The servant has brought the medical chest by now," Ashley replied.

"You!"

Steven felt that Ashley could always make him angry.

He angrily shook his hand and left.

Olivia was afraid that Steven wouldn't bring the medical chest. So she hurriedly said, "I'll get it. Where
is it in the guest room?"



"Steven will bring the chest. He is just being childish."

Samuel did not move his eyes away from Nicole but kept talking.

Olivia did not understand his words. Ashley did not explain. At this time, Steven already brought the
medical chest.

"Here you are."

Ashley ignored the awkward and aggrieved Steven.

She quickly opened the medical chest and treated Nicole without even giving a single glance to Steven.

Steven complained in a low voice, "Ashley, how can you be so arrogant? I am the CEO of the Bradford
Group. But you regard me as your servant. That's only because you know I care about you."

"Who else do you care about?"

Ashley suddenly turned her head. Her gaze was as sharp as a knife.

"I also care about my daughter," Steven answered.

"Get lost!"

Ashley scolded, but slightly smiled.

Olivia looked at the way they got along and was a little sad.

She thought, 'If Jacob was still here, they could also be happy.'

'No!'

'It wasn't possible!' Olivia thought.



She would leave Jacob quietly and wouldn't trouble him.

Thinking of Jacob, who was still unconscious in the hospital, Olivia would rather break up with him than
seeing him lying in bed.

Ashley quickly cooled Nicole down. But Nicole was still in a bad mood.

"She's consciously rejecting treatment. It's not good for her recovery. I don't care about your
misunderstanding. You'd better make her feel better. I can cure a fever, but I can't cure any mental
disease. There are guest rooms. You can stay till Nicole recovers."

Ashley decided on her own.

Though Steven coldly snorted in protest, he didn't say anything.

Samuel ignored Steven's snort and said indifferently, "Let's go to the guest room."

"You're really cheeky."

Steven was a bit angry about Samuel and his wife ruining his valuable time with Ashley.

Samuel said, "Steven, send someone to bring Booth and my wife's bodyguard, Ernesto."

"Are you ordering me?"

Steven felt that it was so cruel to him.

Fortunately, Ashley got up and straightly kissed him on the face. She said softly, "Only when they settle
down can we take good rest."

The awkwardness on Steven's face instantly disappeared.



"What do you want for lunch?"

"Anything will do."

Ashley waved her hand and went upstairs.

Steven's eyes were filled with tenderness. After Ashley entered the bedroom, he turned to Samuel with
disdain and said, "I want the international development project of your company."

"No problem. Just take it as my medical payment."

Samuel didn't care much about the project.

Olivia was shocked when the rich man easily traded hundreds of millions of contracts for medical fees.

She didn't understand the world of the rich.

Steven got what he wanted, and was no longer depressed. So he immediately asked the servant to call
Ernesto.

Samuel carried Nicole into the room, and Olivia followed.

She saw Samuel silently sitting beside Nicole. Then she asked in a low voice, "Are you really with
another woman?"

"I just wanted to know something from her. We were never together," Samuel replied.

"What is it? Can't you tell Nicole?" Olivia asked.

"No."

Samuel's reply made Olivia frown slightly.



"She is your wife. You'd better not hide anything from her. Samuel, you know how Nicole is. If you don't
explain clearly, she will probably divorce you. Furthermore, I heard from her that if she decides to
divorce, she will abort the baby. Think it over carefully. It's so difficult for you to have this baby. Do you
really want to give up because of a misunderstanding? "

Hearing Olivia's words, Samuel's eyes darkened. He tightly held Nicole with both of his hands, as if she
would fly away the moment he let go.

"Did she really say this?" Samuel asked.

"Why would I lie to you? I can get nothing if I lie. Since you are not cheating, you can explain this whole
thing to her. But I'm curious. Why was there lipstick on your shirt? Isn't that woman too aggressive?"

The more Olivia thought, the angrier she became.

Samuel said coldly, "She will never show up again."

"What do you mean?"

Samuel did not answer Olivia. But she seemed to understand. She goggled at him and said in horror,
"You, you..."

"I threw her into the sea."

Samuel said calmly. But Olivia was astonished.

She suddenly realized that Samuel was cruel. But because of Nicole, he had played nice. But this time,
did he become ruthless again for Nicole?

Olivia didn't understand. But she sensed that perhaps what Samuel wanted to know had something to
do with Nicole.
