Nicole frowned slightly.
What happened to Trevin was not enough to make Samuel so irritated.
"Be quiet. He needs to get more sleep. You guys can buy some breakfast like millet porridge. We need
to take good care of his stomach. I think he's not feeling well recently."
Nicole asked someone to buy breakfast..
Actually, Samuel was a light sleeper. He used to receive training in the military region. As a result, he
would wake up easily even if the sound was small, but he slept so deeply today.
Nicole thought to herself, "He either slept too late last night or he's sick."
"Could this man be sick?"
Nicole frowned slightly and quickly ran into the room.
She put her hand on Samuel's head and it was a little hot.
Nicole hurriedly found a thermometer to take Samuel's temperature.
Samuel really had a fever!
Nicole thought to herself, "How could this man have a fever!"
Nicole was a little anxious.
"Can you call a doctor?"
Nicole said to someone.
That person hurriedly went to the hospital to invite a doctor to see Samuel when he found out that
Samuel had a fever.
The doctor said in a low voice after confirming Samuel's symptoms, "He has a fever caused by a cold.
He just needs to take some medicine to bring his fever down. However, he needs to get more rest
because he suffers from a lack of sleep."
Nicole nodded and walked the doctor to the door.
When she returned, Samuel was still sleeping.
He rarely slept for such a long period of time.
Nicole held Samuel's hand and felt that his body temperature was still rising.
Nicole thought to herself, "What happened to this man?"
"Why does he have a fever?"
"Is it because we watched the stars last night?
"But we didn't go out!"
Nicole was puzzled. She couldn't help but think of the cigarette butts on the deck.
"What time did he sleep last night?"
"It's over five in the morning."
Nicole was slightly stunned.
Nicole thought to himself, "What kept this man up so late that he barely slept all night?"
"Standing on the deck looking at the sea alone?"
Nicole felt a little distressed.
She went to get some hot water, used a hot towel to wipe Samuel's body, and gave him the medicine.
Samuel's temperature finally dropped two hours later.
When he opened his eyes, he felt feeble.
"What happens to me?"
Samuel wanted to get up, but he felt very weak.
Nicole hurriedly helped him up and gave him some warm water before whispering, "You have a fever."
"Me?"
Samuel was slightly stunned.
Samuel thought to himself, "How could I have a fever?"
However, he could tell that what Nicole said was true from her look.
"I am sorry you were so worried."
"Everyone could get sick? You don't need to apologize to me. I am the one who should say sorry. I
have no idea that you have a fever even if I am with you."
Nicole blamed herself.
Samuel held her hand and said, "That's not your fault. I should have taken good care of myself. I have
never caught a cold before. I really don't know how I could catch a cold here! "
"Are you hungry? I bought millet porridge. Would you like some?"
Nicole began to say something else.
"Okay."
Samuel smiled gently.
Nicole felt tenderness and something else from Samuel's look. She just couldn't tell what that
something else was.
She then fed Samuel with millet porridge.
Samuel looked at Nicole's face as he ate millet porridge. He was moved by her.
He had to protect this woman this whole life. He absolutely couldn't let her suffer any harm.
Samuel's forehead began to sweat after he ate a bowl of millet porridge. Nicole was kind of relieved
when she saw it.
"You will be fine if you start to sweat, but you are still weak now. You need to lie down for a while and
you'll feel better."
Nicole put down the bowl and chopsticks.
Samuel held her hand and said, "I'm not that weak. Don't worry. I will be fine."
"You need to get enough rest. I have to go out now."
Samuel nodded slightly at Nicole.
"It is for Trevin, right? He has already been captured. You can do whatever you want. After all, he is
someone from the Night Elf Empire. But you don't need to be angry. It's not worth it."
Nicole knew that Samuel was worried that she would be depressed again like she was when Finn
betrayed her.
She nodded.
"I know. I'll take care of it. You have to lie down here. If you feel uncomfortable, you can ask someone
to book a hotel on shore. After all, it's a little cold here."
However, Samuel shook his head and said, "I don't want to go anywhere right now. I simply want to
stay here. Maybe Triston can come with you just in case of emergency."
Triston was from the Sky Group. He was the man who went out to buy millet porridge just now.
Samuel would come with Nicole if he didn't have a fever.
Nicole knew that he was worried about her, so she nodded and said, "Okay, I need to go now. Call me
if you need anything."
"Mm, I'll sleep for a while. I'm a little tired."
Samuel looked off color.
Nicole said worriedly, "Maybe I shouldn't go anywhere today. You look so weak and I should be with
you. I can interrogate Trevin at any time."
"I'm fine. I'm just a little weak after having a fever. You don't need to worry about me. Besides, there are
many people who can take care of me on this ship. However, Trevin is different. This isn't the place we
take charge of. It can be a problem in the future if something happens and he escapes. We can't take
the risk. We still have children behind us."
Nicole pursed her lips when she heard Samuel's words.
If it weren't for the children, she wouldn't have gone out on such a bad day.
She wanted to celebrate a birthday with Samuel only, but what they had was just one birthday.
Nicole held Samuel's hand and said, "I'll be back as soon as possible."
"Okay."
Nicole changed her clothes and went out.
This place was not the Seapolis City. Everything seemed so unfamiliar when she was on land, but
Nicole was not afraid at all because of Samuel and the people from the Sky Group.
She squinted and whispered, "Did you find out something about the woman who met Trevin
yesterday?"
"Yes, I did."
"Who is it?"
"Petty."
Nicole almost fell when she heard Triston's words.
"Who?"
She suddenly turned around and looked at Triston nervously.
Triston whispered, "Petty, your sister-in-law and Mr. Green's younger sister. Mr. Samuel already knew it
yesterday."
Nicole immediately understood something.
Samuel stayed up all night smoking in the cold air on the deck because of Petty. That was probably
why he caught a cold and had a fever.
Petty!
Petty was Samuel's only family in the world.
Her betrayal was like a sharp dagger, which was stabbed into Samuel's chest. No wonder Samuel's
feelings were hurt.
Nicole looked depressed.
A Lillian could easily ruin the peace of the Green family.
"We can go now."
Nicole walked forward, but she felt quite upset.
Nicole thought to herself, "Just because Samuel says nothing doesn't mean that he is not sad."
"He must be sad and heartbroken."
Nicole went to a guest house nearby with Triston.
There was someone guarding outside.
Everyone showed respect to Nicole when she came over.
She opened the door of the guest house and walked in.
Trevin was tied to a chair and his mouth was covered with a towel.
He thought he was wrong the moment he saw Nicole.
Trevin thought to himself, "How can this be?"
"Why was Nicole here?"
Nicole knew the man in front of her very well. He used to be a thin and weak teenager and then grew
into a tough and responsible person. Nicole was once so proud of him, but now she could only feel sad.
"Why?"
Nicole sat across from him and took the towel away from his mouth.
Only when Trevin heard Nicole's voice did he realize that he wasn't hallucinating.
Nicole really came here.
Trevin immediately felt that Nicole knew everything he had done.
He looked at Nicole and said mockingly, "What are you asking? I don't understand."
"Why do you betray me?"
Nicole was somewhat indifferent to Trevin's betrayal after what happened to Finn. Moreover, it was
Trevin who did the wrong thing. Trevin should feel embarrassed and sorry to her. She didn't have to
feel sad about everything.
Nicole agreed to look after Trevin because of Maia, but she never thought that Trevin finally betrayed
her.
Trevin couldn't help but laugh when he heard Nicole's question.
"Betrayal? What is betrayal? My sister and you are good friends, right? But where were you when she
died? She died so miserably. Can you say that her death had nothing to do with you? You've been
hiding the truth from me all this time. You shouldn't promote me if you don't want me to know why my
sister died. You should never give me the power to find out the cause of my sister's death. On the one
hand, you pretend to be kind and promote me. On the other hand, you hide the reason behind my
sister's death. And now you're asking me why I betray you? Nicole, how hypocritical you are!"
Trevin's voice was trembling although he was laughing. He almost cried.
Nicole looked at him and said slowly, "Don't you know why I never tell you why Maia died? Your sister
did the wrong thing. She already paid the price. There is no need for you to make up for that. I promote
you not because I feel guilty for Maia, but because I hope that you can have a different life and be free
and easy. I know that you will know the truth sooner or later and I have never thought about hiding it
from you. For a person like you, you can find out whatever you want to know. What surprises me is the
choice you have made. Trevin, you really let me down."
"I let you down? How dare you say you're disappointed in me? Do you know that Maia was the only
family I got in this world! The Harper Town is about to collapse. My sister suffered so much for me. I
don't care what she did to others, nor do I care how unforgivable she was. She really did everything
she could to protect me. But I didn't know what she went through until she died. That's my sister! I see
her as my mom! How can I forget what happened to her? How can I get over her death and pretend
that nothing happened!"
Trevin's tears rolled down his cheeks.
He looked so sad that everyone in this room got depressed.
Nicole understood his feelings, but she couldn't forgive him for what he did.
"You might be pissed off and hold grudges against others, but how about those people who were hurt
by your sister? How could they vent their anger? Trevin, Maia is dead. Everything is over. Why can't
you just live your own life?"
"I can't! Ever since I found out the truth, I can't sleep well every day. I can dream of my sister's tragic
death every night. I can't let it go."
Nicole felt upset when she heard Trevin's words.
"That's why you take this chance to betray me when I asked you to come out and look for ancient
books?"
