“Who is it?”
Nicole quickly turned around but could only see the shadow of someone leaving.
Samuel frowned slightly. He made a gesture, and one of his men immediately chased after the shadow.
“Did someone follow you back from the battlefield?”
Nicole was a little worried.
Samuel stroked her hair and said in a low voice, “Don't worry about me. Are you okay?”
“I'm okay. I have the formula for antidote and have also given it to Jacob, but I need a quarantine of fourteen days just in case. It's a responsibility for myself and my fellow people.”
Nicole was aware of her physical condition. It was okay if she got the symptoms of infection at the battlefield hospital. However, her fellow people might not think so, so she had to be cautious.
“Theoretically speaking, no problem with that. Although the Closes died, some might just want to fish over the troubled water, so we can't be careless. I'll have Fill manage all the people here later. Nobody is allowed to go out of the place within fourteen days.”
Samuel's face grew grave.
Nicole did not think of anything else but just felt that it was a bit inhumane.
“There's no need to force them. Everyone could understand the purpose of the quarantine and would cooperate with us. Today is the second day of quarantine. I see that everyone's mood is still okay.”
“Two days and fourteen days are not the same. Nicole, sometimes human nature can't stand the scrutiny of time.”
It seemed like there was a long story from Samuel's eyes.
Nicole suddenly felt that Samuel was so strange like this.
Did something happen to Samuel when Nicole did not know and made Samuel had a deep understanding of human nature?
Nicole pondered within but did not continue to think about it, and she got up from the bed.
“I'll go get you something to eat. The situation here is special now. We're short of men, and there's no one to serve you. The supplies must be saved. So I'll make you a bowl of noodles with gravy.”
“I'll make it myself. You must have had a very hard time.”
For Samuel, there was nothing more reassuring to him than holding Nicole.
Nicole smiled indifferently and said, “No, let me serve you once in a while, huh?”
Her last note was with a bit trembling as if a feather with a trace of temperature lightly touched Samuel's heart and made him felt tickling.
“Alright, don't work too hard. You could cook a bowl of instant noodles as well.”
Samuel could not bear to see Nicole suffer like this.
Nicole said with a smile, “You're Commander Samuel and also a rich president. Eat instant noodles? Nobody will believe it if it gets out.”
“It doesn't matter. As long as I stay with you, eating chaff and wild herbs would also be delicious.”
“Stop it. You're getting slicker now. I really don't know who you learn it from.”
Nicole rolled her eyes at him, then got dressed and got out of bed, and went to the kitchen outside.
Samuel did not lie down on the bed but hastily sent a message to Fill when Nicole left.
“Check the backgrounds of the people here. I saw a shadow from my room just now. I don't know what it was.”
Fill frowned slightly.
There were always so many reckless people who wanted to seek death, and they were really annoying.
He then had his men to check it out.
When Fill thought about Nicole’s sister, who was at home, he frowned slightly.
He did not know how the woman was at this time. Would she worry about him as Nicole worried about Samuel?
She might do so.
He heard that the woman was pregnant.
