Chapter 235: I'm Not That Fragile
Chapter 235: I'm Not That Fragile
Nicole hurriedly lowered her head but failed to conceal the shock in her heart.
How could it be her?
Audrey was very similar to the woman in the photo she took from the Dons!
She suddenly remembered Viola's family photo.
Could this woman be Viola's mother?
It couldn't be so coincidental, right?
Nicole felt troubled and uneasy.
Audrey asked curiously, "Ms. Nicole, do you know me?”
“Oh, no, I don't. I just saw your picture in Viola's family photo. So, I was a little surprised.”
Nicole said with a smile.
Audrey frowned slightly when she heard the name of Viola.
"I see. Are you and Viola friends?"
“Not really. I met her at the sanatorium. There was a small conflict between us.”
Nicole didn't want to be friends with Viola.
That woman swore to rob her of a man. How could she make friends with her? Unless she was out of
her mind!
Audrey, however, did not care much. She said, “You are injured. I know a thing or two about it and
bandaged it up for you. This place is remote, so the doctors seldom come over. If you
mind it, you'd better hurry up to the hospital.”
“Thank you for saving me. How can I repay you?"
“Never mind. I like to be quiet as well as create things alone. So, from time to time, I will come over for
drawing. There's food in the refrigerator in the kitchen. If you're hungry, feel free to make food. Don't
worry about me. I'm a freak mostly.”
With that, Audrey walked out.
She was really a freak.
Nicole said to herself. She was indeed hungry. Now, it was a bit pretentious to say that she needed no
food. Besides, she had no place to go now.
She followed Audrey out of the dark room and saw her go straight to the bedroom.
“Mrs. Yate, are you going to rest? I'll make some food. Why don't you go to bed after having it?”
She could tell that Audrey was quite sleepy, so she asked.
Audrey paused for a moment, then turned around and said to Nicole, "I'm not married. You can call me
Ms. Shaw or Auntie Audrey.”
“Ah? Aren't you Viola's mother?"
Nicole was puzzled.
Audrey said lightly, “I'm her mother, but I’m not married.”
This explanation made Nicole a little confused, but she was embarrassed to ask more.
Audrey went upstairs to her bedroom. The moment she closed the door, Nicole was still thinking.
She was not married and was indeed Viola's mother. But Viola said that was a family photo. What was
going on?
She couldn't figure it out after thinking for a long time and stopped think about it anymore.
Nicole went to the kitchen. When she opened the refrigerator, she found a lot of food. It seemed that
Audrey did prefer to live here alone.
She had no idea if Viola would surprise them with a visit. If not, it would be good for her to stay here for
a few days. However, she was unsure whether Audrey would agree or not.
Sighing softly, Nicole took out two tomatoes and two eggs to make noodles with them.
After finishing it, Nicole filled two bowls with the noodles and went upstairs with one in her hand.
“Auntie Audrey, I made some noodles. How about eating some before you sleep?"
Though she cooked it with the food of Audrey, she should show her manners, didn't she?
Audrey opened the door, and it seemed that she has just finished taking a shower. When she saw the
egg noodles, she was slightly stunned. She seemed to have thought of something. At the sight of it, her
eyes were filled with tears.
"Auntie Audrey, what's wrong with you? Did the scallion inside it make you cry?”
Nicole was somewhat at a loss for such a scene.
Audrey shook her head and whispered, “I don’t know how to cock noodles and haven't eaten such
simple one for many years.”
When Nicole heard this, she was a little embarrassed.
"It's already midnight. I think it's better to eat something light. Auntie Audrey, if you think it's too simple,
I'll make you a rich one in the morning.”
“No need. This is good. Thank you.”
Audrey took the bowl of noodles, smiled, and then closed the door. She didn't even invite Nicole in.
Nicole touched her nose as she almost hit the door.
Audrey was really a little strange.
She shook her head. After going downstairs, she was so hungry that she wolfed down the noodles.
Only then did she feel as if she had come back to life.
She seemed to lose her phone on the way.
This was what Nicole had just discovered.
However, it was good that she lost her phone. At the very least, she would not be tracked down by
anyone.
Nicole found a landline in the villa, but didn’t know if she could dial it out. Then she went upstairs again.
"Auntie Audrey, may I use the landline of the villa?”
"Yes, you may.”
Audrey's voice sounded faintly, as if she was crying.
She cried?
How come?
It was just a bowl of noodles. Was it that awful?
Nicole scratched the back of her head and thought that the noodles should be not bad. At least, Lucas
and Zoe liked it in the past.
She was confused and didn't bother to think more. Anyway, Audrey was an eccentric.
She went downstairs, picked up the phone of the villa and called Samuel.
When the call went through, Samuel's cold voice sounded.
"Who is it?”
"Samuel, it's me!”
Nicole blurted out her name.
“Where are you? Nicole, how dare you? You dared to jump out of the car! Jacob was mindless. What
about you? The speed
of the car was fast. Didn't you want your legs anymore? Or did you think you were an invincible Vajra?"
When Samuel heard that it was Nicole, he felt relieved and flared up.
It was almost a day, and there was no news of Nicole at all. Even Jacob did not know where Nicole had
gone, and her phone was turned off.
In this situation, Samuel could not do anything. At the same time, some people were causing trouble at C0pyright © 2024 Nôv)(elDrama.Org.
the construction site, and he could not get away from it.
Samuel was about to go mad. He did everything he could, except for broadcasting a notice for missing
person on TV.
Fortunately, Allen also seemed to be looking for her, which gave him some comfort.
Now that Samuel received the call from Nicole. He had been worried sick.
This was the first time Nicole had discovered that Samuel had a good vital capacity. He could speak so
much in one breath.
She put the phone away from her ear, waited until Samuel stopped shouting, and said, "I’m fine. I just
scratched my knee.
Don't worry. A woman saved me. Now I am in a remote villa.
My mobile phone was lost halfway. However, this is good. No one can find me through the signal.
Relax, I’m really fine now.”
"A woman? Who? Do you know her? Is she reliable? Nicole, this is an extraordinary time. Wait for me
two days. I will settle the matters happened on the construction site and take you away then. What's
the background of that woman? I'll let Jacob check it.”
“No! Don't!"
Hearing it, Nicole became anxious.
“Samuel, are you trying to tell Allen where I am by having Jacob check the woman? Don’t worry. I'm
safe now. I'll call you every day at this number. As you said, I'll wait for you two days. But you must be
on guard against Allen during this period. He won't let it go.”
Nicole was a little worried about Samuel's case.
The murder case at the construction site was tricky. He could barely handle two things at a time, and
she did not want him to worry anymore.
However, Samuel was still anxious.
“But I'm also worried about your current situation.”
"Don't worry. This place is remote and I won't go out. I only stay here for two or three days. When this
lady leaves, I'll leave as well. No one knows my location. Allen will never guess it.
So, I'm safe right now. Go to deal with your thing first and meet me when it is done.”
“Are you sure?”
"Yes. Didn't I say that? I'll call you every night to let you know that I’m fine. Don’t worry.”
Nicole comforted Samuel.
Although Samuel was still worried, there was no other way.
Allen’s drastic move caught them off guard. If he wanted Nicole to leave safely, he couldn't let anyone
know where she was
right now.
Samuel sighed and said, "Take good care of yourself. Tell me what you need. How about asking that
lady to buy you a
phone? I'll give her money later. By the way, do you have any cash on you? What if ...”
“Alright. Don't worry about me. I can do it myself. Don't worry.”
Only then did Nicole realize that she had nothing right now, let alone money. But could she tell him this
now?
If that man knew it, he would have come to look for her even if he had to turn the United States inside
out.
In order not to cause unnecessary trouble, Nicole could only appease Samuel first.
Although Samuel was still worried at her words, there was no other way.
"I'm sorry to make you suffer.”
Samuel had always thought that if he and Nicole were together again, he would be able to give her the
best life. After all, they had shown their hearts and loved each other. They would grow old together.
However, Allen would never let go and was even more aggressive now. Samuel didn't even have the
ability to protect Nicole.
This annoyed him very much.
Nicole sensed that Samuel was upset.
He was born with a silver spoon. He had always been superior and powerful. Now that he had come to
the United States,
which was unfamiliar to him, for her and the children, he was tied up. This was probably the first time
that he felt grievance.
"Samuel, I’m not that fragile. Being with you is the happiest thing in my life. Don’t worry. I will take care
of myself. This is only temporary. After that, we will go back to the Seapolis City. You will be free to
display your ability and still be the king there. I will lead a happy life under your protection. It is pretty
good, isn’t it?”
Nicole said happily, while Samuel was under a cloud.
Their current situation was somewhat tough. No one knew what Allen would do next. He just was
desperate to end all of this and brought Nicole back home.
