Seeing that Nicole still reluctant to tell him what happened, Dad Bush sighed, “Do you love Samuel so
deeply that you still choose to defend him with the cost of suffering with kids?”
“No, dad, I didn’t suffer. What happened?” Nicole noticed there might be a misunderstanding. She
didn’t think she would suffer as she was aware that Samuel loved her so much that he was even willing
to sacrifice himself to save her.
Dad Bush shook his head, “Don’t lie to me. I could tell from both of your and Lucas’s face. They are
really so domineering that they even hit your faces. After all, you are also the member of the Don
Family. I can ask them for help!”
Upon hearing that, Nicole smiled and explained, “Dad, it is just a misunderstanding. The injuries on my
face and Lucas’s have nothing to do with the Green Family.”
Then Nicole told her dad what was going on between her and Soseph.
Dad Bush was really surprised to hear that, “How could there be such an ungrateful one in the world?!
You have saved her in the base but she still tried to plot against you! What’s wrong with her!”
He felt really angry when knowing that.
Seeing that her dad was overwhelmed with anger, Nicole comforted, “Alright, dad, it’s over. Samuel has
already got her out of the city. And don’t think your grandson is a timid boy. He is smart. He won’t let
himself suffer in vain.”
“What? Lucas is still a boy. How can he fight against an adult? Look at his face!” Dad Bush said
caringly. After all, Lucas was the apple in his eyes.
“Okay dad, it’s over. I and Lucas are fine and we have a good day in the Green Family. Don’t worry.
Just take care of yourself and mom.” Nicole patted on her dad’s back gently to comfort him.
Dad Bush said with relief, “Well, Nicole, you still need to tell the Don family your opinion. After all, it was
all our fault that I and your mom got lost your identity. I really feel sorry for you.”
“Dad, it is not your fault. You were also deceived by others.”
Nicole felt a bit frustrated when recalling what had happened in the past. She had been in a
relationship with Allen for five years before and she thought they could still be friends even they broke
up. However, everything went beyond her expectation. She couldn’t just sit by when Allen started to
hurt those who she cared the most.
“But it was all because of us that you lost your identity. Since the Don Family can bring your identity
back, I and your mom are okay with that even if you are now addressed as Nicole Don.”
Though he said so, Nicole could tell that her dad was in a low spirit.
“Alright, dad, I have told you that I would always be your daughter forever. My name is Nicole Bush and
the Don Family respects my choice.”
“They are really so generous.”
“Alright, dad, don’t worry about it. I will be happy as long as you and mom can stay safe and sound,
okay?”
After comforting her dad for a while, Nicole returned to the ward with him.
Ms. Bush recovered soon thanks to the accompany of Lucas. She even urged the doctor to get her
discharged from the hospital in the afternoon.
After consulting the doctor, Nicole then went through the discharge procedure for her mom.
When they arrived home, Ms. Bush started to cook something delicious for Lucas.
Lucas smiled at Nicole, “Will I be a fat boy?” He was a bit flattered when feeling the enthusiasm of his
grandma.
“You will be a lovely fat boy.” Nicole smiled and pinched his cute face.
Nicole was worried there might be contagious virus in the hospital and Ms. Bush felt happy to be with
Lucas. So Nicole decided to let Lucas stay with her mom to make her feel better.
Lucas was also okay Nicole’s suggestion. So he decided to stay after telling Laurel and Zoe about it.
Later, Nicole decided to return to the hospital.
When Samuel woke up, he was anxious for not seeing Nicole. Then he heard that Nicole went to the
Bush Family. So he made Jacob to pick her up.
When Nicole stepped out of the door, she saw Jacob.
“Why are you here?”
“Madam, Mr. Green made me pick you up.” Jacob smiled. It was obvious that Samuel loved Nicole so
deeply that he was willing to go all out.
“He is no longer mad at me?” Nicole smiled.
“Madam, you know him. He is stubborn but he still loves you.”
Hearing that, Nicole was in a better mood.
“He has to know how to change his temper.”
“You’re right, Madam. But only you can change him.” Jacob was a discerning person.
On the way back to the hospital, Nicole was in high spirit. When she returned to the ward, Samuel was
staying with Zoe. While Laurel returned to the company to deal with some affairs.
“Mommy, here is the Barbie doll daddy bought for me!” Zoe showed off her new toy.
“Daddy won your heart just with a little doll?” Zoe teased.
“I love mommy as well.”
But Samuel still said in a cold tone when seeing her come in, “I make my bed in Zoe’s room. I will live
here from now on.”
“Okay.” Nicole replied casually without extra words.
Samuel frowned and repeated sullenly, “I will live here from now on.”
“Okay.” Again, Nicole replied casually with the same words.
Samuel huffed and lay down on the bed and turned his back on Nicole.
“Mommy, what’s going on with daddy?” Zoe was a bit confused to see the sullen face of her father.
“You daddy is badly ill. Leave him alone. The doctor will come to help him. Come on, tell mommy how
you feel now.” Nicole simply ignored Samuel and sat beside Zoe.
Samuel still huffed. He still felt a bit annoyed for Nicole not apologizing him. He had showed his
willingness to compromise, but it seemed that Nicole still chose to ignore him.
When he turned around, he happened to see the love and care emitting from her eyes when she
looked at Zoe, who was talking about her own physical condition. He felt touched at the sight of it. And
his grievance suddenly disappeared.
His wife and his children softened his heart.
After talking heatedly for a while, Zoe leaned on Nicole’s arms, feeling a bit tired, “Mommy, sing me a
song, okay?”
“Okay.” Nicole patted on Zoe gently and sang her a lullaby. Her sweet sound echoed in the room.
Zoe gradually felt asleep and Samuel stared at Nicole with affection.
Nicole tucked Zoe in. When she turned around, she saw the affectionate eyes of Samuel. Her heart
couldn’t help beating fast.
“What do you look at me like that?” Her heart almost skipped a beat.
“I suddenly notice you are quite attractive.” Samuel seldom said sweet words, but every single sweet
word he said could trap her in love.
“But you just turned your back on me.” Nicole served him a cup of water.
“You felt nothing but my move to turn my back on you?” Samuel refuted.
“But I didn’t turn my back on you.” Nicole gave him a glass of boiled water.
Then she sat on his bed side, whose fragrance slowly flowed into his nose. He felt exceeding peaceful
and calm.
But Samuel still huffed, “But you traded me like a good and you didn’t even comfort me after that.”
Nicole felt so funny to see him complaining like a kid, “Hey, are you going to mad at me for this for a life
time.”
“Yes! Because you humiliate me!” Samuel humphed like a naughty kid.
“You can’t just forget about it?” Nicole smiled.
“It depends on you.” Samuel turned to look away.
Suddenly, Nicole came forward to his front and kissed on his smooth forehead before he had time to
react.
