Nicole gently covered the back of Samuel's hand with her little hands, which calmed down his rage.
"I'll deal with it myself. Don't worry, I'll take revenge on Melissa in my own way."
"I didn't protect you well."
Nicole felt especially guilty and his eyes turned red.
However, Nicole smiled and said, "Life is full of accidents. You can't be by my side all the time. Even if
you watch over me for 24 hours, you can't promise to shield me from any hurt. Don't put too much
burden on yourself. I'm fine, really. The wound just hurts a little."
"I feel heartbroken when you hurt."
Samuel held Nicole's hand tightly and whispered, "I want to tear apart the person who hurt you."
"Come on, we're businessmen. Don't go to extremes. It's not worth it to commit a crime because of
such a scum."
Nicole knew that Samuel might fight against the whole world for her. This was the least she wanted to
see.
She was sure that she could handle it by herself.
Seeing her insistence, Samuel could only nod.
"I've already recorded the video. I've made a short one. Do you need it?"
"Of course."
Nicole wanted to get up, but accidentally hurt the wound. She moaned in pain.
"Slow down. I'll help you. You should just lie down."
Samuel quickly put down the things in his hand and supported Nicole.
Nicole smiled and said, "I'm fine. I'm not that vulnerable."
She moved to the computer and watched the shorter video. She could clearly see Melissa's vicious
appearance.
Nicole asked an entertainment reporter to immediately post the video.
The Internet was overwhelmed with discussion.
"Holy shit, what a breaking news! Didn't he say that Nicole framed Melissa? Why was Melissa the one
who was violent?"
"The reversal is so shocking. The Bush family wanted to frame Nicole who was innocent!"
Shortly after, Samuel asked a reporter to post the diagnosis of Nicole's injury.
Netizens quickly found the hospital where Nicole was treated and got the first-hand information.
"Holy shit, might Nicole have hurt herself just to frame Melissa? If so, it costs too much."
"I don't think so. No matter what, Nicole is Mrs. Green. Would she beat herself up like this? I've asked
someone to evaluate the authenticity of the video. It's not fake. Nicole must be telling the truth."
"What kind of people are the Bushes? They did such a terrible thing to their adopted daughter. Looks
like Nicole is the victim."
Netizens all supported Nicole.
When Mr. and Mrs. Bush saw the news, they became furious.
"We really underestimated her. She framed Melissa so viciously. Why didn't I notice her cruel nature
before?"
Mrs. Bush was so angry that she almost broke the bowl in her hand.
Braden frowned and said coldly, "Where's Melissa? Have you reached to her? Ask her if she did it."
"Do you really believe this video Nicole posted? She's just talking nonsense. Melissa wouldn't do such
a thing!"
"I've told you to call!"
Braden's voice suddenly got loud, and Mrs. Bush got startled.
"Bush, why..."
"It was as clear as day that Melissa whipped Nicole. I understand why she did this due to hatred.
However, how could she leave a video evidence? She has to explain as soon as possible, otherwise
her reputation will be ruined. Hurry up and call Melissa."
Hearing what Braden said, Mrs. Bush did not dare to delay. She hurriedly called Melissa. However, no
one picked up the phone.
"What if something happened to her? She didn't answer the phone."
"Impossible. Country F is a place beyond Samuel's reach. She will be very safe. Does she surf the
Internet? Call Major and ask him about this. Did Melissa change her number?"
Braden's words alleviated Mrs. Bush's anxiety.
She hurriedly called Major.
Major had read the online news. He was glad that he had sent Melissa away.
A beauty was lying in his arms. She felt a little dissatisfied when she saw Major looking at the trending
topic again.
"Major, is Twitter prettier than me?"
She tugged at Major's collar and stretched out her hand to draw circles around Major's chest in a
seductive way.
Major was soon sexually aroused.
"Beauty, let me see how beautiful you are!"
Major rolled over and pressed the woman under him.
She shouted, "Major, don't do this. It's in the day!"
She pretended to push him away, but Major pulled off her clothes.
They both gasped.
At this moment, Mrs. Bush called.
Major got stunned and then angry to be bothered by the ringtone.
"Major, come on!"
Seeing that Major was a little distracted, the woman grabbed him by the neck and kissed him.
At this moment, Major didn't want to pay any attention to Mrs. Bush's phone call. He continued the sex
with her woman.
Mrs. Bush felt a little anxious, for no one answered her phone.
"Braden, Major is not answering the phone, either. Is he with Melissa?"
"Perhaps, I'll call back later."
Braden was irritated.
He smoked again.
Nicole's reaction really caught him off guard.
If he didn't deal with it, Melissa's life would be ruined.
Thinking of this, Braden pulled some strings and even spent money to change the trending hashtag,
but he failed. Not long after, this video was headlined as the most breaking news.
All netizens were cursing Melissa for her cruelty. In their eyes, Nicole was a weak and pitiful adopted
daughter who was bullied.
Samuel finally felt better.
He had never used Twitter. He would just get Melissa or her parents beaten up for revenge. He never
expected that Nicole would use the Internet to retaliate against the Bush family.
Samuel was impressed by Nicole.
He was proud of his woman.
Nicole naturally felt Samuel's gaze. She glanced at him and whispered, "Do you think something is
strange?"
"What's so strange?"
"Melissa didn't respond to the video at all. This isn't her style!"
Samuel did not think it would be a great deal.
"With solid evidence, how can she defend herself?"
"That's why it is strange. Would she willingly admit her mistake without justifying herself?"
Samuel pondered on Nicole's words.
That was right.
Now, all the netizens were cursing her. She should have come out to explain this.
At this moment, he received a phone call from Ernesto.
"Mr. Green, there is credible information that Melissa is nowhere to be found in Country F now."
"What do you mean by nowhere?"
Samuel frowned slightly.
Nicole was also surprised.
How could a woman who had just arrived in Country F disappear without a reason?
Ernesto whispered, "I don't know. Our men can't get in. I bought the information from a hooligan over
there. It's not clear what's going on. I'll follow up."
"Keep watching."
"Got it."
After hanging up the phone, Nicole tilted her head and asked doubtfully, "How did she disappear? No
wonder she didn't respond to any comment on the Internet. She was controlled. What do you think?"
Samuel shook his head slightly and had an unfathomable expression.
"Get some rest. I'm going out for smoking."
Nicole was stunned.
His addiction to cigarettes wasn't that great. He was smoking again because of the silent thing between
them. Nicole a little depressed.
"Stop smoking. If you're sick from smoking and pass away first, I won't be widowed. I'll find someone to
marry on the day you're buried. I'll let the joy of marriage wash away the sadness of death."
"Nonsense."
Samuel stretched out his hand and flicked at Nicole's forehead. He doted on Nicole.
Nicole pouted, not stopping him, "I'm serious. Try it if you don't believe me."
"Alright, I won't smoke anymore, okay? I'll go out and fetch some water for you."
Nicole was now certain that Samuel was just looking for an excuse to leave.
Nicole did not know why he went out. But she bet it was because of Melissa's disappearance.
"Go. Don't bother me here."
Nicole waved her hand and turned away from him like an awkward child.
Samuel couldn't help but want to laugh.
"What do you want to eat? I'll bring it back for you later."
"You, okay?"
Nicole defied him.
Nicole was stunned for a moment, and then grinned.
"Not for now, but I can give you a little bit of benefits. I'll let you kiss and touch me as long as you wish."
"Get lost!"
Nicole's face flushed with embarrassment.
She shouldn't have mentioned it.
"Get lost!"
Nicole pulled the blanket and wrapped herself, not looking at Samuel anymore.
Samuel really wanted to sleep with Nicole right now. But there was something more important to do
now.
He smiled and walked out with his phone.
After he left, Nicole struggled to get out of bed. She wanted to know who Samuel called. Unfortunately,
the door was thick and soundproof. She could not hear a word.
She wanted to open the door, only to see two bodyguards in black standing outside. She got upset.
Samuel was so cautious.
She couldn't help but return to bed.
After Samuel came out, he went to the end of the corridor with his phone.
The windows here were open and he could see the street outside.
Samuel took out a cigarette and was about to light it up. He remembered what Nicole said just now.
Then he rolled the cigarette between his fingers and made a phone call.
"Did you hide Melissa?"
Samuel was so cautious.
She couldn't help but return to bed.
