"Mrs. Green!"
The nurse's face turned pallor from fright. She went forward to support Nicole.
Nicole was afraid that Samuel would hang up if she didn't answer the phone in time. She didn't care about her current appearance, stood up with the help of the nurse and said, "I'd like to go to the bathroom."
"I'll be by your side."
"No need. Don't come in and don't speak."
Nicole went to the bathroom.
When she answered the phone, she was a little out of breath.
"What's the matter?"
Samuel hadn't seen Nicole for five days. Now he saw her face and suddenly missed her even more.
"Nothing. I'm in the bathroom."
Nicole tried her best to breathe more gently. Her palms were sweaty and her knees hurt.
It seemed that she had been seriously hurt when she fell.
When Samuel noticed that Nicole had lost weight and her eyes were a little hollow, he couldn't help but ask, "Don't you eat properly when I'm not at home? Your face looks smaller."
"Yes. After you leave, you don't call me or answer my phone. I don't even know how you are, so I lose weight."
Samuel was slightly surprised.
"Have you called me?"
"Yes. What's wrong?"
Nicole felt that Samuel's question was a little strange, but she still replied.
Samuel didn't say anything and smiled, "Maybe I didn't see it. I've been too busy lately. I don't even have time to look at my phone."
"You...."
Nicole would like to ask him what he was busy with, but she changed the topic.
"When will you come back?"
"Three days. I'll be back in three days."
Nicole nodded slightly.
"You've also lost weight."
"I'm fine. I don't like the food outside. I miss the food you cooked."
"When you come back, I'll cook for you."
Nicole smiled faintly, and her smile was filled with tolerance.
"OK."
Samuel felt that Nicole was so beautiful that he held his breath. It would be better if he was by her side.
"By the way, this isn't our bathroom. Aren't you at home?"
"No. I'm hanging out."
Nicole nodded.
"Has anything happened recently?"
"I'm fine. Everything is fine."
Nicole didn't tell him about her situation.
Although Samuel did not say anything, Nicole saw his dark circles and pinched chin.
What was he doing outside?
Why did he become so thin?
'Is he sick like me?'
"Or is there something troublesome outside?'
These questions lingered in Nicole's mind.
She would like to ask more carefully, but Samuel talked to her so gently and she saw the deep love for her in his eyes. She suddenly didn't want to ask anything.
The most important thing between couples was trust.
Since Samuel did not tell her, there must be a reason for not telling her. As long as he still cared about her and their family, there was nothing that they could not talk about.
Samuel was not at home. Regardless of whether it was her or his situation, it was useless to talk much about it. A slow remedy couldn't meet an emergency. If they knew each other's situation, they would be more worried about each other. It was better not to say anything.
He had promised her.
He would be back in three days!
So what if she waited for him for three days?
"When you come back, I'll pick you up."
Nicole smiled faintly. Samuel felt even more homesick for her smile.
"OK. I'll give you the flight time later."
"OK!"
"Nicole."
"What?"
"I miss you."
When Samuel said this, Nicole suddenly felt weepy.
She recalled all the grievances she had suffered over the past few days. She almost couldn't help but tell him what had happened.
If she could lean against Samuel's embrace, how could she not be happy?
However, when she was about to tell him everything, she forced herself to stop.
She believed more than anyone else that Samuel was not fickle. She also knew that he had his own reasons for not contacting anyone since he had left the Seapolis City.
Nicole was unwilling to make things difficult for Samuel, so she could only deal with it by herself temporarily.
"I miss you too."
Nicole suddenly regained her consciousness.
If Olivia knew that Nicole was video chatting with Samuel, Olivia would be desperate to tell everything to Samuel.
Nicole was reluctant to be Samuel's burden.
Since she knew that he was fine, she asked for nothing. She believed that Samuel would tell her everything when he came back.
Thinking of this, Nicole whispered, "I have to hang up. If I continue to stay at the bathroom, Olivia will be anxious."
"OK. Don't stay outside for too long. Go back early."
"I see."
Nicole was reluctant to hang up, but she heard that Olivia's footsteps were closer to her.
"Wait for you. Miss you," Nicole said.
Nicole hung up.
Her hands were still trembling, and her body was trembling even more.
It was a kind of anxiety after she waited for a few days. It was a kind of relaxation when she realized that Samuel was safe and sound. In an instant, she had mixed feelings and completely relieved.
"Nicole, what are you doing?"
Olivia suddenly opened the bathroom door and saw Nicole sitting on the bathroom with a silly smile on her face.
"Do you have a fever again?"
Olivia touched Nicole's forehead. When Olivia realized that Nicole's temperature wasn't high and saw that Nicole was still smiling, Olivia felt strange.
"Nicole, are you alright?"
"I'm fine. Everything is fine. I feel better than ever."
Nicole relaxed suddenly. Olivia was somewhat puzzled for Nicole's brilliant smile.
"How can you say that you're fine? Why didn't you allow the nurse to go to the bathroom with you? You're sitting on the toilet without taking off your pants. How can you pee? And where will you go in your own clothes?"
Only then did Olivia realize that Nicole had changed her hospital gown. Olivia couldn't help but frown.
However, Nicole smiled and said, "Nothing. I changed my clothes and was about to go out for a walk, but I suddenly wanted to go to the bathroom. I didn't want to pee after I came in, so I sat down for a while. I don't feel well now. Go out first. Give me some time to tidy up, OK?"
What Nicole had said made sense. Olivia nodded even though she was a little puzzled.
Olivia went out and Nicole tightly gripped her phone.
Nicole didn't mean to hide it from Olivia. However, if Samuel really had some reasons to be outside and Olivia knew that Samuel video chatted with Nicole, Olivia would make a fuss, because Olivia cared about Nicole very much.
Since Nicole did not intend to tell Samuel about her illness, she planned to keep it a secret until he came back.
Thinking of this, Nicole tidied herself up, supported the wall and stood up. Only then did she realize that her knees were hurting badly.
She involuntarily groaned and her head was drenched with sweat.
Could it be possible?
She only fell lightly. Could it be that she had really become so weak?
Nicole smiled bitterly. She struggled to get out, but she was worn out. Just now, she was in a hurry to see Samuel by her tenacity, but now she did not know where her tenacity was.
