As Nicole pondered, her brows tightly knitted. Samuel noticed it.
"I will take care of it. I have asked someone to disguise as you and go there later. Viola will be caught
as soon as she appears. So you don't need to worry."
Nicole looked at him and said, "Do you think doing everything for me is the best protection?"
"Yes. I don't want you to take any risks."
"But I want to go personally. I've got things to ask Viola."
Samuel was a bit annoyed.
"You can ask her whatever you want after we catch her. You can't go now."
"Do you really think you can catch Viola?" Nicole said indifferently.
"She made an appointment with you, and we had the call recorded. As long as we catch her, we can
send her to the police. Then she won't be able to deny it."
"What about Zoe? Are you going to hide her? If Zoe is at home, it won't constitute kidnapping. In that
case, you have no reason to catch Viola. The call recording will be useless. Viola has the protection
from the Don family. Do you think we will win without solid evidence?"
Hearing what she said, Samuel frowned.
"The Don family may not cover her up this time. And Jason..."
"If Mrs. Don had listened to Mr. Jason, things wouldn't have been like this."
Nicole interrupted Samuel and said, "I want to meet Viola personally. What happened today is too
strange. Even if Viola wants a bargaining chip, she will not dare to kidnap my child. Besides, she talked
as if she has been watching our house. That's impossible."
Seeing that Nicole had made up her mind, Samuel knew that he could not persuade her. He said
worriedly, "I will go with you."
"Will you not go if I say no?"
"No."
Nicole did not say anything, but got up and went to the study.
"Dad, Samuel and I are going out. We won't be back at noon. Zoe will stay at home with you and
mom."
Dad Bush was not surprised at all. He just nodded and said, "Alright, take care of yourselves."
"OK!"
Nicole nodded and changed her clothes before leaving the Bush’s with Samuel.
Seeing them come out together, Jacob thought they were going back to the Green’s, so he asked,
"Where's Miss Zoe?"
"Stay here and protect them. We've got things to do."
After Samuel finished speaking, they left.
Along the way, Nicole did not talk much. Although Samuel was a little sorry, he was too proud to
apologize. And he believed that what he said had a point. But Nicole was still mad at him and he didn't
know what he could do.
The atmosphere was somewhat tense.
When they arrived at Nancy Park, Nicole opened the car door, but Samuel suddenly grabbed her wrist.
"Never put your life in danger. If you are angry with me or you want to scold me, just come to me. Don't
hurt yourself. If Viola wants to do anything to you, you need to let me know immediately, okay?"
Samuel felt that it was a mistake to allow her to come here.
But he didn't want to quarrel with Nicole anymore.
After what happened to Zoe, their relation has been strained. If he continued to insist his opinion this
time, Nicole would explode with rage.
Seeing Samuel's worried expression, Nicole nodded.
"I know."
She broke free from Samuel's hands and got off.
Samuel suddenly felt uneasy.
It was really unpleasant.
They were the closest people in the world, but now, it seemed they were separated by mountains and
were not able to touch each other.
As Samuel watched Nicole get off and walk towards the place that Viola said, he got nervous.
"Finn, tell everyone, you must ensure Mrs. Green's safety."
Finn suddenly became nervous.
When Nicole arrived at the designated location, she saw that there were people from all walks of life,
including many peddlers. It was not easy to be noticed among them.
She looked around and soon found a few familiar faces, all of them from the Night Elf Empire.
Nicole instantly realized that Samuel had arranged some bodyguards here, so she was safe.
She leaned against a railing, looking at the green grass. A few children were playing football. Their
happy expression reminded her of Lucas and Joseph.
They also liked playing football.
On the other side of the football field, two children were playing drones. It seemed that one of them was
not familiar with it and had difficulty controlling the drone. It would not take off anyway.
Nicole thought of Lucas again. He was as clumsy as this when he first played drones. But now he had
already become an expert.
Nicole suddenly recalled what Tim had said.
Ryan was an addict, and he gave the drugs to Viola through Swift.
Nicole wondered whether she should save Mrs. Don or not.
Mrs. Don was not fond of her and even thought badly of her. Mrs. Don might not believe it even if
Nicole told her about it.
Moreover, she had no evidence that Viola had drugged Mrs. Don.
But it troubled her conscience if she didn't do something.
Nicole would remind a stranger of danger, not to mention the Don family, with whom she had a special
relation.
Nicole struggled and couldn't make up her mind.
She should have discussed it with Samuel, but she didn't. She didn't know why, but now she just didn't
want to talk to him.
Especially about the Don family.
Tim was right. Samuel didn't care about the Don family at all.
In some ways, Samuel was emotionless.
As long as it wasn't someone he cared about, he wouldn't even take a look if the person died.
Nicole didn't think poorly of his character. But it was about the Don family. She just couldn't bear to
ignore it.
Nicole pondered as time passed. It was already past ten o'clock, but Viola hadn't shown up yet.
Nicole checked the time and listened to the call recording again. The location and time were correct,
but why didn't Viola show up?
Was there something wrong?
After half an hour, Viola still did not appear, nor did she call.
Nicole wanted to call her, but after thinking for a while, she decided not to.
If this was a trap, she might fall into it if she called.
Samuel also glanced at his watch constantly.
He became a little anxious.
"Viola hasn't arrived yet?"
"No."
Finn and others had been monitoring the surroundings. They would find it if there was any trace.
However, there was no sign of her at all.
Samuel was impatient.
"Send someone to see where Viola is and what she is doing."
As soon as Samuel finished speaking, Finn asked someone to find her.
After a while, news came that Viola was accompanying Mrs. Don at the Don family. Mrs. Don's mental
state was not stable.
In other words, Viola stood Nicole up!
Samuel was angry.
No one has ever played tricks on Nicole like this. Viola had gone too far!
Samuel got out of the car. Finn tried to stop him, but he went to Nicole directly.
"Let's go home!"
Nicole was shocked by his sudden appearance.
"Why did you get off? Viola hadn't come yet."
"She won't come. She's playing tricks on you. She knew that you were worried about Zoe, so she
asked you to come here. But she won't show up. I've sent someone to find her. She's watching TV with
Mrs. Don at the Don’s. She won't come even if you wait until night!"
Samuel wished he could send Viola to hell now.
Smart as him, he was fooled by Viola. He couldn't stand it.
Nicole was stunned.
Viola was still at the Don’s?
So what Samuel said was true?
Viola was playing tricks to trouble her?
It seemed true. Viola didn't know that Zoe's kidnapping was planned by Samuel, so she naturally didn't
know that Nicole had seen Zoe now. Viola might just be playing with her.
Although Nicole was angry, there was nothing she could do. She couldn't go to the Don’s to complain
Viola again because of this.
She sighed and followed Samuel to the car.
At this moment, a little boy's football suddenly flew over and went towards Nicole's face.
"Watch out!"
Samuel quickly pulled Nicole behind him and blocked the football with his hand.
The boy ran over nervously and said timidly, "Sir, I'm sorry. Can you give the football back to us?"
Samuel was angry. But looking at this child who was about the age of Lucas, he didn't want to vent his
anger at him.
He handed the football to the little boy and said indifferently, "Be careful next time."
"Thank you!"
The little boy ran away with the football in his hand.
Nicole came from behind Samuel and looked in the direction the little boy ran away. She whispered,
"It's so good to be a child. They are carefree."
"You can be like them too."
Just as Samuel finished speaking, another child suddenly jumped out from behind Nicole, it seemed
that he was trying to control the drone, and he directly knocked Nicole down.
"I'm sorry, Miss. Sorry!"
The little boy apologized but didn't stop.
Samuel was furious, but he didn't have time to blame the little boy. He hurriedly helped Nicole up and
asked worriedly, "Are you alright? Did you get hurt?"
"I'm fine."
Nicole shook her head. Then she saw a note in her hand.
The little boy put it in her hand the moment he hit her.
