Chapter 1348 Are You Out of Your Mind?

If Leo discovered that he was hiding in Zayn's place, he wouldn't be able to explain it clearly no matter
how Zayn tried.

Samuel frowned slightly. He couldn't understand what Leo meant. Could it be that he was found hiding
here?

Or who had betrayed him?

Samuel thought of Phoenix, but immediately shook his head.

Even though Phoenix did not like Nicole and even targeted at Nicole, Samuel was still confident that
she would not betray him.

Then why did Leo come here?

Samuel could not understand.

Zayn didn't know about Samuel's worries. He didn't care about it, but a trace of ridicule flashed through
his eyes.

Leo kept saying that Nicole was an outsider, but he didn't even believe his own son. He even wanted to
find something from here to restrain his son.

This was the relationship between father and son of the royal family.

It was ridiculous!

Fortunately, he didn't have any expectations for this. Otherwise, he didn't know if he would be sad
again.



Leo frowned when he saw that Zayn only dodged to the side and didn't stop him from searching the
room.

Did he have the wrong guess?

Wasn't it Nicole and Samuel who rescued Yanice?

Zayn had nothing to do with them?

All sorts of questions flashed through Leo's mind. Zayn's expression was calm and he did not stop Leo
at all. This was also because he did not know that Samuel was here. If he knew that Samuel was here,
Zayn would probably not be like this.

The patrolling guards quickly arrived. They respectfully bowed at Zayn and then began to search the
palace.

Samuel's heart tautened.

At this moment, he felt his sleeve being pulled by someone.

Samuel suddenly turned around to fight back. But when he saw it was Nicole, he was stunned.

"Nicole!"

Samuel was pleasant in his heart, but he was also worried and nervous.

If only Nicole could appear before Leo. She showed up at this moment. It would have put him and her
in a dangerous situation.

"Follow me."

Nicole seemed to know what Samuel was thinking, so she whispered and pulled him.



Samuel didn't suspect and quietly retreated with Nicole. However, he was surprised. Where they were
walking on should be a secret passage.

How would Nicole know?

However, Samuel did not ask. He followed Nicole and left Zayn's palace with great confidence. After
walking out, Samuel saw a sweet girl standing there. Seeing them come out, she heaved a sigh of
relief.

"You guys are finally back. How is it? Does my father discover you?"

Sienna asked worriedly.

Nicole shook her head and said gratefully, "Princess Sienna, thank you."

"You are on the same side with Zayn. I should protect you."

Sienna smiled faintly.

Samuel understood Sienna's identity. However, he was a little surprised that how could Nicole come
into contact with Sienna?

Seeing that he had a lot to say, Nicole whispered, "Princess, we'll go back first."

"Alright."

Sienna did not stop them.

Samuel followed Nicole into the room. When he saw that Yanice was fine, he heaved a sigh of relief.

"Nicole, what's going on?"



Facing Samuel's doubts, Nicole whispered, "When we were at the Mysterious Entrance, we didn't saw
Phoenix's people. Instead, we met the patrol team. At that time, we were afraid that Phoenix would be
involved into it, so Yanice and I hid somewhere. I didn't expect that Sienna would save us. She and her
cousin were on the same side, so we are very safe."

Nicole's words made Yanice frown slightly, but she quickly concealed that.

This stupid woman still protected Phoenix. Couldn't she realize that Phoenix wanted to replace her?

She didn't know what Nicole was thinking about.

However, Yanice rarely interfered in other people's relationship.

Hearing this, Samuel was slightly stunned.

Wasn't it made by Phoenix?

He looked into Nicole's eyes and said, "Nicole, you are my wife. Do you remember what I've said? No
matter what, don't let yourself be wronged."

"I'm not. I'm just telling the truth. If you don't believe me, you can ask Yanice."

Nicole cast the question to Yanice.

Yanice was speechless.

What did Nicole want to do since she gave the question to her at this moment?

Should she help this stupid woman cheat Samuel and help Phoenix?

"I'm going back to my room. You two can stay here."



Yanice stood up and left. She didn't want to get involved in this.

Samuel did feel that it was inconvenient for Yanice to be here. Seeing that Yanice had left, he carefully
inspected Nicole and heaved a sigh of relief when he found that she was not injured.

"Did Phoenix do something to you?"

"No! Are you still so worried about your own people?"

Nicole denied it.

Phoenix was grateful to Samuel. She could not let Samuel be an ungrateful person. The battle between
her and Phoenix belonged to women. There was no need to influence Samuel.

Samuel still didn't believe it.

"Then why did you turn off the location?"

"I was afraid that you would rush over and expose the location of Sienna. Everyone here thinks that
Sienna didn't care about the outside world. If anyone finds out that she works for cousin, they would
have harmed her. Besides, if Sienna hadn't told me that you were in danger, I wouldn't have known that
there was such a secret passage which could take you out of the cousin's palace."

Back then, Nicole was still chatting with Yanice in her room when she heard from Amy that Sienna had
something to talk to her.

She was a little surprised. After she went there, Sienna called her Nicole, and then told her the identity
of herself and Samuel. She also told Nicole that Leo was searching the palace and Samuel would be in
danger. Nicole would go along that secret passage to save him.

Originally, Nicole was still doubtful. But when she saw Samuel, she suddenly became nervous.



She never thought that Samuel would actually be there!

"By the way, weren't you at Phoenix's palace? Why did you run to my cousin's palace?"

Nicole was surprised.

She believed that Phoenix would protect Samuel very well, but she did not expect that Samuel would
run out.

"You dare mention that? You were missing. How could I stay there? I definitely won't leave you alone
next time. No matter what rules there will be, they're not as important as you."

Samuel was shocked when he thought what would happen if Nicole was not saved by Sienna.

Nicole felt quite warm. She leaned against Samuel's embrace and smiled, "I thought you and Phoenix
would have a lot to talk about. After all, it's been many years since you've seen each other."

"If you're not there, we can't talk about anything. What if you're jealous?"

After Samuel felt relieved, he began to joke with Nicole.

"I won't be jealous. My husband loves me so much. Why should I be jealous?"

"Is that so?"

Samuel pinched Nicole's chin, forcing her to look straight into his eyes.

"Tell me. Did Phoenix hurt you?"

Nicole was touched, but nothing could be seen from her expression.



"What do you mean? Are you eager for her to hurt me? I think you just want to find an excuse to kill me
so that you can marry someone else, right?"

Nicole angrily slapped his hand off and pushed Samuel away. She pretended to be angry.

Samuel was slightly stunned. Then he sighed and walked over to hug her. "What are you talking
about? You know I don't mean that."

He and Phoenix had been together for a very long time, so he naturally knew Phoenix better than
Nicole. When Helen told him that he had not met Nicole, Samuel had guessed it. He even thought that
Phoenix would take advantage of this opportunity to kill Nicole. That was why he was so panicked, and
even said those words.

But now, Nicole told him that it wasn't Phoenix's fault and she ran away on her own. Samuel didn't
believe this.

In this palace, Nicole only had Trevin as a backup. Now that Trevin was seriously injured and
unconscious. Zayn's palace was also far away from here. The only people she could rely on were
herself and Phoenix. How could she leave halfway?

The only possibility was that there was something that forced her to leave.

But why didn't Nicole tell him?

Why would she keep the secret for Phoenix?

Samuel felt distressed when he thought of the past between him and Phoenix.

This stupid Nicole must think like this because she cared about him.



He didn't want Nicole to feel wronged, but now he still let her suffer a lot, which made Samuel very
uncomfortable.

Nicole didn't know what Samuel was thinking. She still pouted and said, "I don't know what you mean. I
am not telepathic."

"Do you want to know what I'm thinking? If you want, I can help you."

Samuel leaned over and bit Nicole's face.

"What are you doing?"

Nicole pushed Samuel away, feeling somewhat depressed.

When did this man become so childish?

Samuel laughed.

"I want to eat you. Didn't you say that you want to be telepathic? Then we need to be much 'closer' to
each other."

These words sounded a little erotic.

Nicole instantly blushed.

"I'm not going to joke with you. You haven't told me why you went to my cousin's place yet."

"I went there to find you."

Samuel replied straightforwardly.

Even though Nicole thought so in her heart, she was still touched when she heard Samuel say this.



"This place is too dangerous. You can't act alone next time."

"Then you can't leave me."

Samuel could not forget the fear of knowing that Nicole was missing. He held her hands tightly.

Nicole nodded.

She would never leave Samuel again.

This place was so dangerous, and Phoenix was still supervising them. How could she let go of
Samuel?

"By the way, let's go back. Otherwise, Phoenix should be worried."

Nicole's words instantly stunned Samuel.

Go back?

What exactly was this stupid woman doing?

Didn't she know that returning to Phoenix's place was like a sheep entering a tiger's den? She actually
wanted to return?

"Nicole, are you out of your mind?"

Samuel frowned slightly. What he said made Nicole speechless.

He actually scolded her!

What?

Should she cry in front of him?
