"What's the matter with you? I have told you that Mrs. Green didn't want any visitors!"
Cara quickly shielded Nicole behind her. With Mrs. Brook in front of her, Cara looked like an old hen
protecting her cubs. Nicole was somewhat moved seeing this.
Nicole hadn't seen Mrs. Brook for some time. Mrs. Brook's face was pale. It could be told that she was
having a tough time these days.
Nicole pushed Cara to the side. She looked at the old lady in front of her and respectfully said, "Hello,
Mrs. Brook."
"I thought that you must have forgotten me."
Mrs. Brook was not very friendly.
Nicole only smiled and didn't say anything. Seeing Nicole like this, Mrs. Brook was a little angry.
"Nicole, in the past five years, our family has treated you well, right?"
"Right."
Nicole's reply gave Mrs. Brook a glimmer of hope.
"You still have some conscience. Over the past five years, although the Brook family has not given you
a good chance, we helped you raise your children and get rid of gossip, and even helped you become
an excellent car designer. You should thank our family for what you have achieved. How could you
allow Samuel to destroy us? Why are you so ruthless?"
The more Mrs. Brook spoke, the angrier she became. It seemed that to her, Nicole was unforgivable.
Nicole did not interrupt her. After Mrs. Brook finished speaking, she asked her in a low voice, "Mrs.
Brook, do you know what Allen did to me?"
Mrs. Brook froze for a moment and blushed a little.
"Nicole, you know that Allen loves you. He loves you so much, and that's why..."
"That's why he wanted to kill me?"
Nicole asked calmly. However, her question left Mrs. Brook speechless.
"He was confused. You know what he thought of you for the past five years. Five years—five years
have passed, but there was still nothing between you two. He just didn't want to give up."
"Mrs. Brook, your grandson could take someone's life just because he didn't want to give up, right?"
Nicole spoke coldly. Hearing this, Mrs. Brook felt even more embarrassed.
"How about this? We don't care whether Allen is dead or alive. We can do anything to make you and
Samuel happy. I have been nice to you over the past five years, and I'm asking you a favor now. Can
you beg Samuel to let the Brook family off the hook?"
Mrs. Brook made herself pretty clear. She had already decided to sacrifice Allen to save the Brook
family.
Nicole didn't know how to feel about this. If it was in the past, she might have been soft-hearted.
However, she had experienced death in the cold storage and had seen how frightened Samuel was
because of her. Ever since then, Nicole had decided not to be so kind to anyone anymore.
"Mrs. Brook, I remember that Samuel had given the Brook family a chance. I also remember that when
I left the United States, Samuel said that it was a reward for your family's care for me and the children.
From then on, we were even. Since we are even now, why are you asking me to plead for Samuel's
mercy again? Think of the thing that Allen did. We'll not show our gratitude and kindness again to those
who are hurting us. If it were you, would you agree?"
Nicole's words left Mrs. Brook speechless, but she still wanted to struggle.
"Nicole, I know that Allen was wrong. Like I said, if killing him can save our family..."
"Before this happened, Allen was the symbol, and the pride of the Brook family. Since you've always
been proud of him, you shouldn't give up on him now, right? You should share your happiness and
woe. Aren't you afraid of breaking his heart? As for the Brook family, I'm sorry, there's nothing I can do."
After saying that, Nicole directly left.
Mrs. Brook changed her expression again and again. Just as Nicole walked into the elevator and was
about to close the door, Mrs. Brook suddenly blocked it with one leg and threatened Nicole in a low
voice, "If you don't let the Brook family off, I won't let you off. Do you hear me?"
"Are you threatening me?"
Nicole smiled and casually took out her phone. The scene just happened was now playing on her
phone.
Mrs. Brook's expression instantly changed.
"You—why are you such a vicious woman?"
"I'm just trying to protect myself. Sneaky people like you are everywhere. Mrs. Brook, if you continue to
harass me, I will publish this video. I don't know what the outcome will be at that time."
After Nicole finished speaking, she asked Cara to help Mrs. Brook out and shut down the elevator door.
Mrs. Brook was so angry that she trembled. She never imagined that Nicole would be so heartless—
she used to think that Nicole was soft, timid, and kind.
"Nicole, I'll get back to you!"
Mrs. Brook shouted, but unfortunately, Nicole couldn't hear her anymore.
Cara learned something from Nicole and Mrs. Brook's words. After the elevator was closed, she looked
at Nicole, but did not ask anything. Instead, she draped the thin blanket in hand over Nicole's body.
"Don't you want to ask me anything?"
Nicole said calmly.
Cara shook her head and said, "Although I am very curious, this is your business, Mrs. Green. It has
nothing to do with me. My job is to take good care of you and keep away those people with bad
intentions. Other things have nothing to do with me."
Nicole was very satisfied with Cara's answer.
She smiled and said in a low voice, "Do you like Laurence?"
Cara instantly froze. Then, her face turned red involuntarily.
"No."
"Don't hide it from me. I'm also a woman. I can see your gaze. When Laurence was with us, your eyes
were simply shining. I can't mistake that," Nicole teased her.
Cara felt a little embarrassed.
"Mrs. Green, I..."
"Give him some time. Adela has just passed away, and she died so miserably. Laurence has known her
from childhood. He won't be able to get pass it easily."
Nicole sighed and roughly told Cara about something.
Cara suddenly felt a little distressed for Laurence.
"Don't worry, Mrs. Green. I won't do anything stupid."
"I believe you."
Nicole patted the back of Cara's hand.
After the two of them got off the elevator, they went to the roof. There was a helicopter waiting for them.
Seeing Nicole, Samuel hurriedly walked over.
"Why did it take so long?"
"Nothing. I met an old acquaintance and we chatted for a while."
"Who?"
Samuel immediately became nervous.
It hurt Nicole to see Samuel like this.
Why hadn't she seen Samuel's nervousness before? She had even hurt him and worried him again and
again for Allen, who was an outsider. Who else was standing guard beside her now besides Samuel?
Allen, whom she had wanted to protect, actually wanted to take her life!
Samuel noticed that Nicole was about to cry. He asked uneasily, "What's wrong? If you don't want to
say it, then don't say it. I don't really want to know."
"Samuel, why are you so kind to me?"
Nicole felt that she had asked a silly question.
Sure enough, Samuel smiled and said, "You silly woman. You are my wife. If I'm not kind to you, who
else should I smile to?"
"Yes, I'm silly. Let's go home."
Nicole held Samuel's hand.
Samuel trembled slightly, and then happily carried Nicole onto the plane.
Cara couldn't help but feel envious when she saw how sweet Nicole and Samuel were. If only she
could find such a considerate husband.
She couldn't help but think of Laurence.
She thought of his cold gaze and indifferent expression and involuntarily trembled.
Holy crap!
Laurence could never be gentle and tender until the world was destroyed.
Thinking of this, Cara quickly shook her head and followed them onto the plane. After getting on the
plane, she noticed that Laurence was also there.
"Why are you here?"
Nicole, Samuel, and Laurence all froze for a moment.
Nicole smiled and pulled Samuel, acting as if she hadn't seen what happened at all.
Laurence still had an ice-cold face. He didn't even look at Cara and said, "Are you going or not? Get
lost if you don't want to go back."
Cara was so angry that her two hands were tightly clenched together. She really wanted to slap his
face.
'Can't he be friendlier?'
'I don't owe him anything!'
However, Cara remained silent and only walked past Laurence angrily. Whether intentional or not, she
fiercely stepped on the back of Laurence's foot with her heel.
Laurence didn't say anything, but frowned. He seemed to have become colder.
Cara was slightly happier. She didn't care what Laurence was feeling, but swaggered over to Nicole's
side.
"Mrs. Green, I'm sitting behind you. If you need anything, call me."
"Alright."
Nicole turned up the corners of her lips. Clearly, she was in a good mood.
Samuel watched what happened and said in a low voice to Nicole, "Are you thinking of encouraging
Cara to pursue Laurence?"
"Let's wait and see what happens. Some people are meant for each other, and some are not."
"You are right."
Nicole and Samuel sat together with their fingers clenched together. They two made a beautiful scene.
Laurence looked at Nicole's side face and seemed to see Adela in a trance.
His gaze became gentle and blurry.
Cara had been staring at Laurence. Seeing that Laurence was staring at Nicole's side face, she
couldn't help but feel a little jealous and sad.
'He isn't that cold to everyone after all!'
She hurriedly turned her head to look outside, afraid that she would lose her mind in jealousy. However,
not long after, the plane took off, and she involuntarily turned her head back.
Laurence was so good-looking under the sunlight. Cara couldn't help but have a crush on him. He was
like an elf coming from the paradise, but also like Satan, charming yet evil.
Cara noticed that her heart was beating wildly.
When Laurence noticed Cara's gaze, he turned around and glared at her fiercely.
That glance was like a knife. Cara was scared, and she quickly regained her senses.
Nicole watched all of this quietly in Samuel's arms, smiling.
Not long after, they arrived at the Seapolis City. Nicole looked at the familiar city and smiled.
She was back!
She was home!
"You are right."
Nicole and Samuel sat together with their fingers clenched together. They two made a beautiful scene.
Laurence looked at Nicole's side face and seemed to see Adela in a trance.
