Just as Nicole was in a dilemma, she heard Samuel say, "How is the relationship between Sienna and Zayn?"
Nicole, who originally wanted to cry, paused for a moment and shook her head. "They just formed an alliance. To be more accurately, it's because of me. I feel that Phoenix is safer to us. At least she won't do anything to you."
These words made Samuel feel very uncomfortable.
"You'll be wronged if you go there."
"Who will be wronged is not certain."
Nicole smiled. The light in her eyes moved Samuel. Then he smiled as well. "Alright. But if she bullies you, you must tell me."
"Of course. You are my dear husband."
Nicole hugged Samuel's arm like a spoiled child. Her body rubbed against Samuel's, which made him feel that his lust was aroused.
"What do you want?"
His voice was hoarse, but Nicole quickly saw the eagerness in his eyes. So she quickly stood up and laughed. "I'm used to it."
"I don't mind it if you are like this at night."
If it wasn't for that the situation now was still dangerous, how could Samuel let her go? Now, he could only look at her and sigh.
Nicole smiled and did not respond.
"If we want to leave, hurry up. I'm afraid that Sienna s unreliable. I'll go to tell Yanice."
Before Samuel could say anything, Nicole already ran away, as if he was very dangerous.
He shook his head with a laugh, but soon his expression became serious.
When he left Phoenix's palace, he spoke so resolutely. Now he was going to bring Nicole back. Would Phoenix hate Nicole?
Thinking of this, Samuel was depressed.
Right at this moment, Phoenix called him.
"Mr. Green, where are you now? My father has gone to Zayn's place. I will go over now. You can take advantage of this opportunity to disguise yourself as one of my guards. I will take you away."
Phoenix's voice was urgent.
To Samuel, Phoenix was reluctant to let him suffer. Leo suddenly went to Zayn's place, which scared Phoenix. Although she was a little dissatisfied with the breach between Samuel and her, she couldn't care about it now.
Hearing this, Samuel whispered, "There's no need to go over. I'm not at Zayn's place. I'll bring Nicole over later. If you find it unacceptable, we'll hide somewhere else."
The implication of these words was that if Phoenix could tolerate Nicole, then he would go over. If not, then he wouldn't go there.
Phoenix was stunned. And she became even more jealous.
For Nicole, Mr. Green repeatedly spoke to her harshly. Now, he was even on guard against her. This was totally out of Phoenix's expectation.
It looked like Nicole was really important to Samuel.
If she insisted on going against Nicole, it was estimated that Samuel would stay farther away from her. Even the friendship they had formed during the battle would disappear. This was Phoenix's only advantage. She absolutely couldn't let Nicole take this away.
Thinking of this, Phoenix said, "Mr. Green, what are you talking about? Since it's Nicole, I will naturally treat her with care. I will ask someone to pick you up."
"Alright."
What Phoenix said made Samuel feel comfortable, but he was still vigilant.
He knew that the battle between women was silent, but dangerous. At this time, he would firmly stay by his wife's side.
When Nicole came out with Yanice, Samuel also hung up the phone.
"Can we go over now?"
Nicole knew what happened just now. Although she felt uncomfortable, she didn't show it. Instead, she appeared to be so generous that Samuel couldn't see her through.
Samuel understood what kind of situation they were facing now. If he wanted to protect Nicole and Yanice, he could only turn to Phoenix.
Yanice looked at Nicole and then looked at Samuel. "If there's nothing else, let's go. I'm afraid it's inappropriate to stay here for too long."
"Alright."
Nicole took the initiative to pull Samuel's arm and they walked out.
When Sienna saw them come out, she was not surprised at all. She smiled and said, "Are you guys ready to leave now?"
Nicole's heart skipped a beat.
She always felt that Sienna seemed to know everything, which was why she was so uneasy. Sienna had known everything about her family background, but she didn't know anything about Sienna. She really felt restless about this.
Samuel narrowed his eyes and looked down at Sienna. He could not see anything from her expression. This woman either hid her feelings very well, or was really innocent. However, Samuel did not believe the latter one. All the women in the palace were quite capable.
"Yes, we are leaving. Thank you for taking care of my wife during this period of time. I will repay this later."
Samuel said it very officially. Actually, as long as the other party needed him for something else, he still could cooperate with them.
However, Sienna smiled and said, "Alright, I'll remember this. However, there's nothing I need you for the time being. Maybe in the future, I'll really turn to you guys."
These words made Nicole a little confused, but she had no choice right now.
"Is my cousin alright?"
Since Sienna had investigated her family's background, it was meaningless for her to hide anymore. Nicole changed the topic.
Samuel felt that the current situation was a bit out of his control.
"I'm afraid she'll hurt you. I'm afraid you'll be wronged."
"Who will be wronged is not certain yet."
At this moment, Nicole was like a warrior in armor, who swore to defend her marriage. No matter how powerful that Phoenix was, she was not afraid of her.
Seeing how stubborn Nicole was, Samuel did not say anything.
They followed the path and went directly to the Phoenix's palace.
When Phoenix saw Samuel and Nicole coming in from this path, her expression changed. Instantly, she looked at Samuel and found that Samuel was also looking at her. His eyes were filled with disappointment and anger. Phoenix felt a little puzzled.
Who exactly told them this path?
He betrayed her.
However, Phoenix did not say anything. Instead, she looked straight at Nicole.
She looked indeed seductive.
Phoenix made comments in her heart, but nothing could be found from her expression.
She was really tough.
This was Nicole's first impression on Phoenix. She had imagined how Phoenix looked like, but she never thought that Phoenix would be so beautiful. She was so lonely and cold, just like a plum blooming in the cold wind on a high mountain. It was impossible for others to ignore her beauty.
Nicole felt pressured when she thought of that such a woman had feelings for her husband.
Samuel could also sense strange atmosphere. He coughed and said, "This is Nicole, my wife. Nicole, this is Phoenix, the sister that I've told you."
Nicole took the initiative to smile and stretched out her hand towards Phoenix.
"Hello, Phoenix. We'll have to trouble you to take care of us during this period of time."
"That's nothing."
Phoenix shook Nicole's hand, but she secretly exerted her strength.
The battle between them begun from the moment they saw each other. Nicole felt the provocation from Phoenix. She smiled and secretly held Phoenix's hand tightly.
Suddenly, Phoenix let go. Everything seemed normal, but Nicole didn't stop in time. She involuntarily staggered. Suddenly, a pair of powerful arms surrounded her waist in time, and a gentle voice sounded in her ears.
"Are you hungry? It seems that you can't even stand steadily."
Samuel's gaze was so gentle. But to Phoenix, it was like a dagger soaked with poison, which pierced into her heart.
