Chapter 1578 You Look Different Today

Nicole didn’t know what was wrong with Olivia, nor could she figure it out. She was lost in her thought
and only when she heard the news that Tim had come back did she gather herself and walk out of the
room.

Seeing that Nicole looked upset, Samuel took a step forward and asked, “What’s wrong? Did you
quarrel with Olivia?”

Only then did he realize it was not possible.

Everyone knew about what Nicole meant to Olivia, so how would she quarrel with Nicole? Moreover,
they wouldn’t have any relationship in terms of benefits.

Nicole shook her head and asked in a low voice, “Do you think there’s such a fantastic thing like a
rebirth in the world?”

“Are you immersed in novels?”

Samuel’s subconscious question stunned Nicole.

“So you think it’s impossible?”

“There are many weird things in this world, but as for such a ridiculous thing like a rebirth, it would only
happen in novels and it’s almost impossible to encounter this in the reality? Could it be that you met
someone reborn?”

Samuel’s words enlightened Nicole.

“So everything about rebirth is a lie. She lied to me?”

“Who? Olivia? She said she was reborn?”



Samuel immediately associated it with the reason why Nicole looked upset and couldn’t help but
comment, “Is she so immersed in the movies? Rebirth? Why didn’t she say she was transmigrated into
a dead body and became alive? Or why didn’t she say she was from heaven?”

Feeling his words annoying, Nicole shot a glare at Samuel.

“You can’t comment Olivia like that. There must be some reasons behind.”

“I think she’s making a fuss. What reasons does she have? Come on, don’t tell me that give the same
explanation to Jacob.”

Samuel had a quick mind and immediately associated it. Although Nicole didn’t want to admit it, she
could only accept it when seeing the confidence in Samuel’s eyes. She twitched her mouth.

“Lucas and Laurence have come back, and we shall deal with that matter first.”

“That matter is not that urgent.”

Learning that this matter was about Jacob, Samuel grabbed Nicole’s arm and asked, “Did Olivia say so
to Jacob?”

“It’s a matter between the two, so just let them solve it themselves. Don’t involve in this matter.”

Nicole tried to let Samuel drop his idea.

To be honest, she was afraid that Samuel would do something to Olivia.

Samuel sneered, “What would you do if it was done by Jacob?”

Nicole became silent.



If Jacob made a fuss with such a ridiculous excuse, she would definitely beat him up. Therefore, she
could understand how Samuel felt now.

“Jacob said he will solve it himself.”

“It will be good if it’s not because Olivia has fallen for the other man. Otherwise, I will not let go of her
even if Jacob decides to do so.”

“She won’t,” Nicole said hurriedly.

She knew Olivia well and knew she was not the kind of person who would cheat her husband.

But Samuel snorted, “The entertainment business is quite complicated. If it wasn’t that Jacob has been
backing her up behind her back, do you think that she would smoothly become a celebrity? How could
she make such a ridiculous excuse like rebirth now? When the matter here is solved, you shall go to
City B personally and find what Olivia is planning to do.”

“I see.”

Fearing that Samuel would do something, Nicole hurriedly held up his hand and walked outside.

Xander and Audrey had gone out and they slightly nodded at Nicole and Samuel when seeing them.

“Laurence’s identity is special, so we decide to pick him up personally. If it’s possible, we will arrange
them to live in the Dark Forest.”

Nicole and Samuel didn’t agree to Xander’s proposal.

“Dad, we understand what you and mom are thinking. However, now that brother has a medicine to
suppress Laurence’s mania, we think it’s unnecessary for him to come back to the Dark Forest. After



all, those people of the government are also in that place. We are not clear whether if they will treat
Laurence as an ordinary person if he comes back and we can’t take the risk.” Nicole said.

Samuel also thought so.

Audrey took a glance at Xander, fearing that he and Nicole would have divided opinions on this issue.
She would not know who to support at that time.

But Xander said in a low voice, “Alright. Zayn’s men will keep an eye on him and there shouldn’t be any
problems. In this way, it will not cause the government’s suspicion.

Nicole was a bit stunned.

In her memory, Xander was very loyal to the government. Except for that issue related to Davon, he
never wavered in his loyalty and belief. She was so shocked when seeing him making a concession.

Even Audrey was stunned.

Samuel said with a smile, “Dad, thank you for your understandings.”

“You’re welcome. Now that this should be kept a secret from the government, I will not go with you as it
will arouse other people’s attention. You two have to go alone. Be careful on the way there. The
medicine given by Davon was kept by Zyan and you can go with the guard commander. Feed him the
medicine when you see Laurence in case there would be any other troubles.”

“Okay.”

Nicole nodded her head and then walked out with Samuel.

When they disappeared in her vision, Audrey asked, “You act differently today.”

“Why did you say that?”



Xander curled his lips into a gentle smile and then rubbed Audrey’s head.

Audrey’s instantly blushed.

“We’ve married for many years. Other people will laugh at us if they see your behavior.”

“We’re not in the Dark Forest. What are you afraid of? Moreover, do you plan to stay in the Dark Forest
for the rest of your life?”

Audrey was bewildered when she heard Xander’s words.

“What do you mean? Our responsibility is to…”

“Someone will take our places if we retire. We’re old now and we’ve sacrificed a lot for the country.
Would you like to retire?”

Xander finally expressed his inner thought.

Audrey was completely taken aback and only came to her own sense after a long while. Her eyes got
wet.

“Have you decided on it?”

She’s a woman after all.

No woman likes to leave her hometown and lead a wandering life. But she never complained about it
because she could stay together with her beloved man. She felt very happy when learning that Xander
planned to retire.

Edwin was so old and she wasn’t sure how many years were left in his wife. She was his daughter, but
she seldom stayed by his side. If she could retire, maybe she could take care of him personally to
perform her duty of filial piety.



She didn’t even dare to have such an idea in the past, but now she had a glimmer of hope. She thought
she could even help Nicole take care of the child when she was free.

Audrey became excited when imaging the scene.

Xander noticed the excitement in her eyes and said with the guilty, “You’ve suffered a lot of
grievances.”

“As long as I can stay with you, I don’t feel aggrieved. It’s just that they may not let us retire easily.”

“Rest assured. There must be a way to persuade them.”

Xander was optimistic on this issue.

While Xander and Audrey were enjoying the sweet time, Nicole and Samuel had followed the guard
commander out of the palace. They drove towards the wharf along with the main road.
