"What's the matter?"
Noticing the change of Nicole's expression, Samuel couldn't help but ask.
"Oh, nothing. It is just some private things between women."
Nicole hurriedly said.
Such an answer prevented Samuel from asking further questions.
"I'll go and see if there are any great restaurants nearby. You two ladies can enjoy your shopping."
"Alright."
After this, Samuel left.
As soon as he left, Nicole's expression instantly went ugly.
"Are you telling the truth?"
"You think I'll lie to you? I overheard it. I don't know what Tim is going to handle this matter, but I'm afraid that he won't be able to get over this easily. You know, all these years, except you, he cares about her the most."
Evelyn's words made Nicole's expression even uglier.
Martha called Tim!
This was what Evelyn had just told her.
Martha!
Back then, in order to make her father abroad appear, they deliberately released Martha. However, unexpectedly, she took advantage of that opportunity and escaped.
Now she was still a fugitive. She actually dared to call Tim!
What did she intend to do?
Tim was about to get married. Did she come back to cause trouble and ruin Tim's happiness?
Nicole kept thinking about these questions in her mind, and she looked rather gloomy.
Tim always held a mixed feeling towards Martha. For so many years, he had thought his father drove Martha crazy. But it turned out it was Martha who used everyone. Would Tim forgive Martha?
Nicole didn't know. But she somehow felt uneasy.
"I'll talk to him later."
"Don't mention that it was me who told you that. Keep this a secret. That's my husband. We still have to face each other for the rest of our lives."
Evelyn's words made Nicole laugh.
"Do you have to be so cautious? Tim loves you so much. You aren't worried that he might leave you for that, are you?"
"Of course I'm worried. You know that he made the decision to marry me because I took the initiative. Who knows whether I have a place in his heart? If he gets mad because of this, I might not be his wife."
Evelyn sounded pitiful, which made Nicole feel a little funny.
"Now I'm puzzled. Why did you fall for him? You know that Tim was a playboy, right?"
"I know. But I love him."
Evelyn said with a smile. Her eyes indicated that she was serious about this.
"Why? You just fall in love with him for no reason? That doesn't make sense."
Nicole could not understand this.
"I'll tell you why only after you promise me that you won't tell him. I don't want him to be nice to me because of what happened before. I want him to gradually discover my shining points and fall in love with me," Evelyn said after thinking for a while.
"You are so confident that he'll fall in love with you?"
"Of course."
Evelyn was a beauty, and her confidence brought her more charm.
Nicole asked curiously, "How did you know each other?"
"Tim once saved my life."
Evelyn's words stunned Nicole a little bit.
"When did that happen? Why don't I know? I have never heard Tim mention it. If he had saved a beauty like you, he would have already taken you as his girlfriend, right? Why do you still need to chase after him now?"
Nicole's words embarrassed Evelyn a little.
"It is true. It happened when he was in the army."
"What?"
Nicole didn't expect this was the answer.
"I was only eighteen that year. To celebrate me officially becoming an adult, my dad gave me some money. So I asked a few friends to go abroad to travel," Evelyn whispered. "But I didn't expect I would be so unlucky to run into a terrorist attack during shopping. At that time, I was very scared. I even thought I would die there. Luckily, our peacekeepers were there. It was the first time I saw a peacekeeper. I met danger in a foreign country, but luckily, I saw peacekeepers of our country. I don't know how to describe my feelings back then."

What is it with Chinese authors.
