"Wait!"
"Wait for what? If we wait for any longer, we can't get out."
Nicole glared at Tim and said, "Didn't I tell you that you can't speak without my orders?"
"If I told you that Samuel was also here, would you not listen to me but shut me up?"
Tim looked at Nicole, saying with tongue in cheek.
He truly hoped that Nicole would leave Samuel behind, but he knew that without Samuel, Nicole would
no longer be Nicole and she would just be a living corpse. Perhaps things would be even worse than
that.
He wished to see Nicole happily living in this world, even though the man who brought her happiness
was not him.
This kind of feeling was painful, but it was also comforting. Pain and happiness coexisted, and he could
not tell what it felt like.
Nicole was slightly shocked, and she froze.
She had thought that Samuel was also here, but could she go see him now? She didn't know what it
would be like to see him.
Right now, it was already difficult for them to go out. If Samuel was injured seriously like Tim, what
should she do?
If there were only her here, she wouldn't care even if she died with Samuel. But now she couldn't let
Tim and Finn die with her.
They shouldn't die.
Nicole tightly closed her eyes, feeling a crushing sense of heartbreak. She said in a low voice, "Let's
go."
Tim thought that he had heard wrongly. He turned his face to look at Nicole. Only then did he see the
painful expression on her face.
He understood instantly.
"You really care so much about Finn's and my life? Aren't you afraid that you won't have a chance to
see Samuel again after going out?"
Nicole, of course, had thought about what Tim asked.
She took a deep breath and responded, "Let's go."
"Nicole, I don't need you to do like this!"
Tim wanted to push Nicole away, but failed.
"Stop wasting your breath. Hurry up and go now. Lucas won't last long."
Nicole was heartbroken, but she still made such a choice.
"Nicole! Stop!"
Tim felt that Nicole's sympathy for him was unbearable.
"You think I am a cripple and can only be a burden to you, don't you? So you can't wait to take me out,
right? You love Samuel so much. Now he is so close, but you don't even go to see him. Are you afraid
that you won't be able to take me out after you see him? Let me tell you, I, Tim, do not need your pity!
Leave me behind and take him away! So long as you live happily, I am content."
There was a flicker of great affection in Tim's eyes.
Who'd have thought, he, who used to be a playboy, would be so affectionate?
Nicole looked at him and said word by word, "The happiness of Samuel and I must be created by
ourselves. It can't be based on the sacrifice of anyone else. If it is, we would rather have nothing."
"You just don't want to owe me a favor, do you? Nicole, don't think that way. Can't you take me as one
of your own? Why can you leave Samuel behind? He is as strong as I am. Don't you want to know how
Samuel is now?"
"Shut up."
Nicole couldn't hold on any longer.
She wanted!
She really wanted to know how Samuel was!
He was her heart, her greatest reliance. But now, she couldn't think of him, nor see him.
Tim was right. She was afraid that she couldn't bear to leave after seeing Samuel.
However, Tim didn't seem to notice Nicole's pain. He continued, "You're afraid. You're afraid that you
won't be able to move after seeing Samuel, but you still insist on taking me out first. Nicole, to you, only
Samuel can live and die with you, right? Even though I risk my life, I'm not good enough to die with you.
Am I right? "
"Tim, what are you talking about? My son is doing his best to help us get out. What are you doing now?
Do you really want to stay here? Alright, I'll leave you here!"
As Nicole spoke, she threw Tim aside.
"Are you satisfied now?"
"You--"
Nicole's action stunned Tim.
Didn't she just so insist?
Now, she really gave up?
Tim was not sure if he was disappointed or sad but he knew the pain in his heart was somewhat
unbearable.
Nicole turned around and left.
Tim smiled bitterly and lowered his head to hide the upset in his eyes.
That was alright.
If Nicole and Samuel could go out, he would feel satisfied truthfully.
Before lowering his head, he did not see the sadness in Nicole's eyes.
After taking two steps forward, Nicole suddenly turned around and knocked Tim out.
"You--"
Tim's eyes were filled with shock, but before he could say a word, he fainted.
And before he fainted, he heard Nicole say, "Jibber-jabber. Only a hit works. You're indeed a jerk."
Tim was silent.
In his lifetime, perhaps only Nicole dared to speak to him like this.
A jerk?
Maybe.
He was a jerk only for Nicole.
Laurence saw what Nicole did, but didn't say anything.
Undeniably, Nicole's action was the most direct and reliable way.
Nicole lifted Tim to her back and quickly walked out.
"Hurry up and leave! My son won't last long!"
"OK."
Laurence followed behind Nicole and hastily left the room.
They didn't know where to go, so they followed the way they had just walked. While turning the corner,
Nicole accidentally fell to the door beside her.
"Be careful."
Laurence could not support her with hand, so he just told her to be careful.
Nicole shook her head and said, "He is really heavy."
"Men and women weigh differently."
Laurence could not carry two people on his back. He only hoped that they could leave quickly. After all,
Adela was outside.
Just as Nicole was about to get up, she touched something, and the door in front of her suddenly rolled
up, revealing a glass door.
That startled Nicole.
"Oh boy! What kind of device is this?"
She subconsciously dragged Tim back a few steps, only to see Samuel inside.
"Samuel! Samuel!"
Nicole froze totally.
Samuel sat there upright without any wounds, as if he was asleep.
Even though Nicole had already prepared herself mentally and persuaded herself to take Tim and Finn
out first, at this moment when she saw Samuel, she stopped and could not move at all.
"Go!"
Laurence took a few steps and found that Nicole did not follow him. He turned around and saw her
looking at the man inside the glass door. Her eyes were slightly red, brimmed with tears.
"Who is he?"
"My husband."
When Nicole said these two words, she felt like her heart was dripping with blood.
"Samuel! Samuel!"
She suddenly slammed the glass door like crazy.
Samuel heard someone calling him. He wanted to open his eyes, but his eyelids were too heavy to lift.
"Samuel, open your eyes and look at me! Look at me!"
Nicole knew that she should leave immediately. Otherwise, none of them would be able to leave.
However, the moment she saw Samuel, she really couldn't control herself.
Samuel felt a slight pain in his heart. He suddenly opened his eyes and met Nicole's eyes.
"Nicole?"
Samuel tried to stand up, but it seemed that he was electrocuted as he moved. With a muffled grunt, he
fell to the ground.
"Samuel! How are you?"
Samuel was in pain.
He gritted his teeth and looked at Nicole. He thought that he was dreaming, but the intense pain told
him that all of this was true.
Nicole was here!
She was in the Dungeon!
This fact made Samuel unspeakably anxious.
He saw Tim beside Nicole.
He knew that Tim had come here, and he also knew how Tim had become like this. But as he saw the
beautiful man behind Nicole, he frowned slightly.
"Who is he?"
Nicole followed his gaze and replied, "My friend's man. He's here to help me. Samuel, how are you?
How can I get you out of here?"
"You can't get me out."
Samuel's words stunned Nicole.
"What?"
"Listen to me, Nicole. Take Tim out now. Don't worry about me. It's already not easy for you to enter
this place. You can't open this open, and don't ask Lucas to do it. Bring Tim back to Seapolis and find
my mother. Take my mother and children away from Seapolis, far away from Vincent. If you can't make
it, ask Jason to protect you. You must bring Joseph with you. Don't let him go back to the Green's or
Vincent's side. Remember it."
Samuel seemed to know that they didn't have much time, so she quickly said it and waved his hand.
"Hurry up and leave! Go!"
Nicole made no reply as the tears streamed down her cheeks.
Her hands were tightly clenched together, her fingernails dug into her flesh unconsciously.
Laurence thought that she would risk everything to save Samuel. After all, that was the reason she
came here, wasn't it?
To his surprise, Nicole slowly stood up and carried Tim back to her back.
She looked at Samuel and suddenly smiled. Her smile was so brilliant and beautiful.
"No matter you live or die, I'll be with you. You can't get rid of me. I know what you're thinking. Don't
worry. I'll be a good mother and help you fulfill your responsibility as a son. Just remember, Samuel, if
you dare to die before me, I won't let you off even on the road to heaven."
Samuel smiled a smile of proudness.
This was his woman!
She knew what to do without him saying anything.
She was tough, independent, tolerant, but stubborn and paranoid. She knew that the ones worried him
most were his mother and children, so she would take good care of them while enduring the pain of
unable to save her beloved. He knew that if he really died, she would absolutely die with him.
For her sake and for the sake of the children, he would stay strong.
Their eyes met, and the tacit understanding between them made their feelings for each other deeper.
"I'll wait for you."
After Samuel finished saying those words, Nicole resolutely turned around and left. The tear that fell on
the glass door was exceptionally dazzling.
