Chapter 1329 It Was My Negligence

"Are we here already?"

Nicole pushed Samuel aside and looked outside of the window excitedly.

Country F was a modern country. It was full of Eastern European-style architectures. Nicole was nearly
dazzled.

"Does Leo move all the buildings in Eastern European countries to here? No wonder the country is
closed to the outside world. If other countries see their landmarks here, they will sue him."

Nicole muttered, which was funny to Samuel.

Her point was truly unique.

"Come on. We should get off the plane first. This plane is not registered here. We have to fly back
before they find out."

Samuel whispered.

Nicole stunned slightly.

"Is the flight going back? Then what about us? Are we just staying here? Samuel, are you serious?"

Nicole was already worried. Now that she heard that the plane was flying back, she felt more nervous.

Samuel rubbed her head and smiled, "It is fine, we have someone here."

"Really?"

"Have you forgotten? Phoenix is here."

Nicole immediately reacted when she heard the name.



"That is right. Phoenix is here. Is Phoenix a man or a woman? Is Phoenix good-looking?"

Nicole was so curious that she could not stop asking questions.

Samuel knew that she was nervous. He did not say anything. Instead, he took Nicole's hand and got off
the plane.

The pilot made a gesture and the plane departed.

Nicole suddenly felt lonely.

"Why did he leave just like that?"

Looking at Nicole's reluctant look, Samuel was depressed.

"Do you want to stay with him? Do you need me to ask him to come back and take you with him?"

"No, no, no. I am just saying."

Nicole recognized the jealousness in Samuel's words and immediately changed her tone.

Samuel glanced at her, then grabbed her hand and walked forward.

Fortunately, the people of Country F had the same skin color as them, so they would not be too eye-
catching while walking on the streets.

The place they landed was a small hill. After getting off the hill, Samuel opened the back of his phone,
threw away the SIM card, and inserted a new one.

Nicole asked curiously, "Why did you throw away that SIM card?"



"I do not want others to track me with my SIM card. Throw away your card as well. I used someone
else's ID card and got a new card for you. In the future, just use this new card to make a phone call
here."

As Samuel spoke, he took Nicole's phone and changed the card.

Nicole said reluctantly, "I have used that number for a long time. I do not want to throw it away."

"You can report missing SIM card when you go back. Don't you remember?"

Samuel's words depressed Nicole.

Well, she did forget about it.

After everything was ready, Samuel directly dialed a number.

"Phoenix, I am in Country F. I will send you the location later. Send someone to pick us up and arrange
our accommodation."

"OK."

A female voice came from the phone.

The voice was soft and crisp. It was like the sound when a pearl fell into a plate. It was very crisp and
melodious.

Nicole fell in love with this Phoenix just by listening to her voice.

"Who is this woman to you?"

Samuel looked at Nicole's gossipy face and smiled, "Are you stupid? She is Phoenix from the Sky
Group. Who do you think she is? Nicole, I think you have left your brain in our country. Do you want to



go back and bring it back here?"

"Why are you so annoying?"

Nicole glared at Samuel and cursed herself in her heart.

"Then shall we wait here?"

"Yes. Do you feel cold?"

The weather in Country F was cold, and they were only wearing thin clothes. Nicole shivered when a
breath of cold wind blew over.

Samuel wanted to open the suitcase and take out a coat for Nicole. But then he realized they did not
have any thicker coats in the suitcase.

The weather in the Harper Town was always warm. They did not expect to come to Country F at the
beginning, so they did not prepare any clothes for the autumn or winter. Samuel took off his coat
without hesitation and put it on Nicole.

"No. You will feel cold, too."

Nicole refused.

Samuel whispered, "My body is stronger than yours. Please do not catch a cold. I do not want you to
get a fever. I am not familiar with this place, so getting sick is not a good thing. Just put it on."

Nicole had no reason to insist any more.

She looked at Samuel's thin clothes and said, "We can put on the coat together. You can put it on and
hold me so that both of us can keep warm."



Then, Nicole gave the coat back to Samuel and stood in front of him. She turned around and leaned
her whole body into Samuel's arms. After that, she pulled Samuel's arms around herself.

Samuel's heart was filled with joy when he felt the softness and warmth from Nicole. Then, he heard
Nicole saying, "Do you feel warmer?"

"Yes."

Samuel's voice was hoarse.

It was so warm.

They smiled.

"Samuel, do you think this is the suburbs? Why are there not people walking? We have been here for a
long time, but we have not seen any car or pedestrian."

Nicole sensed the desolation here.

Samuel's eyes narrowed. He looked around and whispered, "I do not know what is going on. Do not
leave my sight."

"Where can I go on such a cold day?"

Nicole whispered. Her legs and feet became a bit cold. She began to stomp her feet, trying to do some
exercise to warm up her body.

Samuel rubbed Nicole's hands and breath out warm air into the space between her hands. He felt sorry
when he saw Nicole's red nose because of the low temperature.

"It was my negligence. I should have checked the weather here before coming."



"It was not your fault. We directly flew over from the Harper Town. Even if you wanted to buy
something, you might not be able to buy it there. Phoenix will arrive soon, right? We can hold on for a
moment."

Nicole chuckled. The optimistic mood exaggerated Samuel, making him feel warmer.

They waited for more than half an hour, but Phoenix's people did not show up. Samuel's expression
was gloomy.

He directly called Phoenix.

"Where are your men?"

"They are on their way. Your position is too far. That place belongs to the depopulated zone, so it will
take some effort to enter. Mr. Green, why did you land over there?"

There was nothing Phoenix could do either.

Samuel frowned slightly.

A depopulated zone?

Country F was small. Why did they have a depopulated zone?

"Was there no one in the depopulated zone from the beginning? Is there any nuclear radiation? You
need to tell me because I bring my wife."

Samuel sounded anxious and cold.

Nicole was surprised.



Nuclear radiation?

Really?

Phoenix almost laughed out loud because of Samuel's words.

Was this man their Mr. Green who never smiled? Why was he talking bad jokes now?

Indeed, the power of love was great.

Phoenix coughed to cover her surprise. She whispered, "There is no nuclear radiation. It is just that
there are wild beasts there. They have harmed people before, so the government marks this area as a
depopulated zone. No one has stepped foot in it for many years."

Nicole was relieved when she heard Phoenix's words. She glared at Samuel as he was the one who
brought up the topic of nuclear radiation.

Samuel smiled slightly, as he found Nicole funny when she acted like this. Without composure and
maturity, she looked like what she used to be in college.

Memories came to Samuel's head. His expression looked better.

"We sneaked in, so we cannot land at the airport. It is fine to land in the depopulated zone. Just hurry
up, we do not have any thick clothes and we are getting sick."

That was the truth.

Samuel started to feel cold too, so Nicole would not be able to stand it.

Phoenix immediately became anxious when she heard it.



"I will ask them to buy some clothes for you. Mr. Green, before we arrive, you should find a place to
hide from the cold. The weather forecast said there will be sleet in a while."

Now Samuel and Nicole were speechless.

Sleet?

They came from a warm place, the Harper Town, to a winter place like this. Moreover, their clothes
were thin, and this was the depopulated zone. Where could they go?

However, Samuel knew that Phoenix had no choice.

"I see. Call me when you arrive. I will find a place to hide first."

"OK."

They hung up the phone. Nicole's nose almost froze off.

She rubbed her red nose and whispered, "Shall we go over there? Maybe we can find a straw house or
something."

Samuel felt that Nicole had read too many fairy tales. But she was his wife, so he could not say
anything she did not like. He just whispered, "It is good to walk. Exercise can keep us warm."

"OK. Let us go."

Nicole held Samuel's hand and walked towards the south.

Because Phoenix said that there would be wild beasts, Nicole walked carefully. Samuel was also on full
alert.

They walked two kilometers south, and Nicole wanted to pee.



"Wait, Samuel. I want to go to the bathroom."

Samuel looked at Nicole's uncomfortable expression and said, "This is the depopulated zone, so there
will not have a public toilet. Just find a place nearby. I will watch out for you."

Nicole did not want to, but she cannot resist anymore. She nodded and ran toward a place with grass.

Samuel was worried. He followed behind, but Nicole said to him, "Do not be too far away. I am scared."

"OK."

Samuel quickly chased after her. Suddenly, he heard Nicole make a weird sound. He immediately felt
anxious.
