“Where did this thing come from?”
Samuel grabbed the thing in Nicole’s hands.
It was actually a small tracker.
Although Nicole didn't know what this thing was for, she said heavily, “I don't know either. After leaving
the sanatorium, I only went to Fallen Angel Club. I didn’t go anywhere along the way.”
“Fallen Angel Club is our family’s Night Elf Empire. It’s impossible that the people there would track
you, unless someone did something with Jacob's car.”
Samuel deepened his gaze.
Jacob was always on the road. Perhaps he was nailed, and his car was also targeted. Thinking of this,
Samuel’s eyes sank again.
Nicole was also feeling a little nervous.
“Perhaps it’s not because of Jacob.”
“Could it be Finn? Why?”
Samuel's rhetorical question made Nicole somewhat speechless.
There were always dangers hidden around them. Nicole was a little worried.
Who had been targeting them?
Samuel felt that they shouldn't stay here for long, especially after he found the tracking device on
Nicole.
He quickly got out of the car and put the tracker in the stone atoll beside him. Then, he pulled Nicole
into the car and whispered, “We need to get out of here quickly.”
Nicole nodded, agreeing to his words. The two quickly fastened their seat belts and drove down the
mountain.
When they were about to reach the foot of the mountain, Samuel discovered that there were a lot of
people down there—people from the military, and some others.
It seemed impossible to drive past there.
Samuel pondered for a moment before saying decisively, “Let’s get off the car and go up the mountain.”
“What?”
Nicole was a little surprised, but she didn’t say anything. She followed Samuel out of the car and
walked up the mountain step by step.
Samuel chose a different path, which no one had ever walked before.
After the two of them walked for a while, Nicole felt tired.
She was wearing high heels. Climbing the mountain was simply torture to her. However, in order not to
drag down Samuel, she did not say anything until she could not stand it. She panted and said, “Let's
rest for a while.”
Samuel stopped.
It was night, and he couldn't see Nicole's face clearly, but he could sense a faint smell of blood.
“Are you injured?”
“No. It’s just that my feet hurt.”
Nicole only felt a burning pain in her heels, but she didn’t feel any liquid flowing out.
When Samuel heard this, he noticed that she was wearing high heels today.
He hurriedly took off his coat and laid it on a stone, then let Nicole sit on it.
Samuel knelt on one knee and lifted one of Nicole's feet. When he was about to take off Nicole's high
heels, Nicole suddenly cried out in pain.
“It hurts.”
“I'm afraid it’s skinned.’
Samuel slowly took off her shoes and found that it was as he had expected. Nicole's fair feet were now
swollen and red, with traces of blood oozing out from the wounds.
He felt extremely worried.
He took off Nicole's shoes and held them in hand. Then, he said to Nicole, “Come up, I'll carry you.”
“The road is rugged. It will be very difficult for you to carry me on your back. It doesn’t matter. I can
walk.”
Nicole didn't want to be a burden to Samuel.
Samuel whispered, “If you continue walking, your feet will be crippled. Hurry up and come up.”
“But you...”
“Come up!”
It sounded like Samuel was giving an order. Nicole went helpless. She could only climb onto Samuel's
back.
His back was firm, making Nicole feel safe. In the night, Samuel continued walking as normal. His
steps were firm, except that he was carrying Nicole on his back.
“Take out my phone and call Mike.”
With that, Nicole put her hand into Samuel's shirt pocket.
Her small hands were a little cold. When she touched Samuel's shirt, Samuel's body went somewhat
stiff.
Nicole knew that she might have touched Samuel's sensitive area, so she didn't dare to make any
other moves. She quickly took out the phone and called Mike.
Mike was in the gym. When he heard the phone ring and saw that it was Samuel, he directly picked it
up.
“Sam, are you home?”
“To what home? There are people blocking our way down the mountain. What road were you picking?”
Samuel knew that this matter had nothing to do with Mike, but he said that on purpose.
Mike was immediately depressed.
“Impossible. That back mountain belongs to the military. Other than me, no one is allowed to enter. And
of course, no one would have the guts to block my way.”
“Are you saying that I'm teasing you? It's cold here. Nicole and I were wandering around the
mountains. I wonder if we could meet anyone. Why would I joke with you?”
As Samuel spoke, the cold wind blew into Mike's ears through the microphone.
He immediately became nervous.
“Where are you? I'll pick you up.”
“Don't bother. Just drive the Jeep down and lure them away. Nicole and I will find a way to go back. The
key is in the car.”
“Sure. Be careful”
Mike hung up the phone and quickly left the house.
Samuel carried Nicole on his back for a while before realizing that he had actually lost his way.
The mountain was huge. At night, the temperature here was relatively low. He could feel that Nicole
was trembling slightly.
“Let's find a place to rest. Or, we can call someone to pick us up.”
Samuel could get by on his own, but with Nicole here, he had to be more considerate.
Nicole was not in great health. What happened to her a few days ago had made her body gone worse.
She had not recovered yet. If she caught a cold again...Samuel didn’t dare to think about the
consequences.
Nicole was already shivering from the cold.
“I'm fine, I'm just feeling a little cold. Let’s find somewhere leeward and take a rest.”
Nicole was afraid that she would add a burden to Samuel. Now that he said that he wanted to rest, she
naturally agreed.
Samuel carried Nicole leeward. He put her down and whispered, “I'll take a look to find out where we
are.”
“Alright!”
Nicole felt dizzy and uncomfortable, and her belly was swelling. Could it be that she was going to have
her period?
It couldn't be!
She prayed. But not long after, a warm current flowed down her tummy.
Nicole was more depressed than ever, but she didn’t know how to tell Samuel.
A sudden gust of wind sent the sweet smell of blood into Samuel's nose.
He frowned slightly and turned to look at Nicole. He saw that her face was somewhat pale and that she
was covering her belly with her hands. She looked painful.
“What's the matter?”
Samuel hurriedly squatted down and gently rubbed her belly with his big palm.
“Your stomach aches?”
Nicole felt as if she was going to die of shame.
She blushed slightly and whispered, “Well, I'm on my period.”
“What?”
Samuel couldn't hear it clearly, but Nicole didn't have the courage to say it again.
Seeing that Nicole was acting strange, Samuel guessed more or less what happened.
“Are you having your period?”
This was a sensitive topic.
Although they used to be husband and wife, the two rarely talked about such a private thing. Now that
Samuel asked about it, Nicole’s face turned red because of embarrassment.
She felt that all the bad luck had fallen on her.
When she was in the sanatorium, all was fine. Why did this happen the moment she left? Moreover,
they were in the mountains. What should she do?
Samuel did not seem to have thought of this situation, either. He suddenly coughed and said, “What
now? Can I tear my clothes for temporary use?”
Nicole hurriedly shook her head.
Samuel's clothes were extremely expensive. Even if he asked her to put them under, she couldn't.
Nicole blushed. Her face burned. She wished that she could escape, but her belly hurt so badly that her
entire body shivered. Cold sweat dripped down her cheeks.
Seeing her like this, Samuel frowned tightly.
“Let's go down!"
He made a prompt decision.
Nicole, on the other hand, was still worried.
“Isn't it blocked? Is that alright?”
“You can't stay here anymore. What if you catch a cold?”
Samuel crouched down and signaled for Nicole to climb up.
Nicole would have climb up before, but she hesitated. She wasn't clean with her period.
“What's the matter?”
Seeing that she hadn't moved, Samuel asked in a low voice.
Nicole whispered, “I'm wet now. I'm afraid ..”
“What are you afraid of? I'm your husband!”
Samuel understood Nicole's worries. He smiled, then directly carried Nicole on his back. He walked
down the mountain firmly.
Nicole didn’t know how she felt right now.
She was like a well-protected baby. The feeling of being cherished made her want to cry.
Perhaps she was too weak at the moment. She felt that she was especially affectionate now.
The cold wind blew the two of them. It carried Samuel's aura into Nicole's nose.
Nicole suddenly felt at ease.
Even if there were unknown enemies waiting for them in front of her, as long as she was with Samuel,
she would feel safe.
She felt her eyelids sink and her head dizzy.
Nicole wrapped her hands around Samuel's neck and whispered, “Samuel, I'm sleepy. I want to sleep
for a while.”
“Don't sleep. You'll catch a cold”
“But I'm so sleepy.”
The breath from Nicole's mouth was a little hot.
Samuel was suddenly shocked.
She wasn't having a cold, right?
“Nicole, tell me about your five years of schooling. Were you studying by yourself or by
correspondence? Or did you go to college?”
Samuel had to find a topic, so that Nicole would be less sleep.
Nicole yawned and said, “I went straight to college.”
“Were foreign boys as handsome as me?”
Nicole found Samuel's question somewhat funny.
“How can this be compared? Boys from abroad are different from you.”
“Have you seen it yourself?”
The more Samuel said, the naughtier he became.
Nicole grabbed his ear and said, “What nonsense are you talking about? I'm a decent girl, OK?”
“Right, right, right. You're the most decent girl. Otherwise, you wouldn't have gone to the kitchen and
flirt with me!”
Samuel’s words made Nicole somewhat shy.
“Stop it. You're not allowed to say it anymore!”
She hurriedly covered Samuel's mouth with her hand. Suddenly, she found that the lights in front of her
were bright, as if someone was arguing.
