Chapter 289: That&##x27;s My Respect for Her

Nicole tried to push Samuel away, but she didn't have the strength, and Samuel just held her tightly.
Nicole was helpless as he held her in his arms like a scoundrel.



Samuel sensed that Nicole had given up struggling and he kissed her softly.



He was jealous. Although he knew there was nothing going on between Nicole and Tim, he just
couldn't stop himself from

feeling jealous.



Nicole gradually was indulged in Samuel's kiss.



As they released each other and were panting, Nicole leaned on Samuel's shoulder and asked him
wearily, "You hurt so badly; how did you get here?"



"Lam worry about you and Zoe." Samuel meant that.



Lucas was exhausted and fell asleep after Samuel was out of danger, while Samuel left Finn in the
hospital to take care of



Lucas, and he drove over alone.



Nicole was a little moved, but she didn't know what to say. It happened so quickly and unexpectedly
that there was no time to

negotiate. And now if she were to talk to Samuel about her deal with Soseph, Samuel would probably
anger to death.



Forget it. When Samuel got better, she would talk to him.



When Nicole was silent, Samuel thought she was tired and worried. "Just take some rest, he said, "I'll
call you when Zoe comes out.’



"How can I sleep?” Nicole didn't dare to sleep.



How could she sleep with so many things piled up that almost crushed her down?



Thought she was sleepy, she wouldn't sleep.





Samuel sighed, and took her in his arms.



“Everything's going to be fine, and Zoe's going to be fine.”



"I hope so.”



At this moment, both of their minds were totally on Zoe.



The lights in the operating room finally went out.



As Nicole tried to get up, she saw darkness and nearly fell, but Samuel helped her up.



"Sit down. Don't worry.”



But Nicole couldn't wait to know the result.



She stood up slowly, letting Samuel help her to the door of the operating room.





The door opened, and the doctor was tired. They were shocked to see Samuel here, and still greeted
him and said to Nicole,

"Don't worry. There was just rejection, and we thought that the operation might fail, but in the process
of emergency treatment, Zoe's cells began to automatically accept the new kidney, and now she is out
of danger. I can be proud to say she's had a really successful operation!"



Nicole burst into tears at the doctor's words.



For the whole five years!



Zoe was finally able to appear in the sun as a normal person.



She was too excited to control herself at the news.



Samuel felt distressed and sad when he looked at Nicole, but he said nothing.





This was their daughter, and Samuel's greatest wish was for his daughter to have a successful
operation.



"Thank you, doctor."



Samuel shook hands with the doctor.



"I just do what I should do,’ the doctor said with a smile. "Zoe is a lucky girl."



"Thank you.’



Nicole didn't know what else to say right now except thanks.



Zoe was still pale when she was pushed out, but Nicole had a glimmer of hope.

The three of them entered the VIP room. Seeing Zoe was unconscious, Samuel said to Nicole, "Go to
sleep. I'll wake you up at dawn.’





"No, you have just finished the operation. You are weak and you should go to sleep for a while. I will let
Jacob come to pick you up when the day breaks."



Nicole was tired but she was healthy. How could she let Samuel stay all night with Zoe? They were
both patients.



Samuel, however, insisted.



"Be good, go and sleep for an hour. I'll wake you up in an hour. I promise I'll be back when you wake
up. And Zoe’s my daughter, so I've got to take care of her."



Nicole hesitated, but was persuaded by Samuel.



"Well, I'll sleep for an hour, and an hour later you must wake me up."



Nicole was decisive.



Samuel nodded in recognition.





Nicole looked at Zoe. It looked like Zoe would not wake up tonight.



She went into another room, leaned back on the sofa, and fell asleep in a moment.



Samuel was particularly sad when he saw Nicole so tired.



If a man couldn't give his women a comfortable life, did he deserve to be her beloved one?



He covered Nicole with a thin blanket, then went to Zoe, took her little hand in his, and sat down in a
chair by the window.



In fact, he was also very tired, and very painful. The wound tore his nerve, but he automatically ignored
the pain.



If it weren't for Soseph, he couldn't imagine what his daughter would be facing, or what the whole
family would be facing.





He was so grateful to see Zoe breathing steadily.



As the minutes ticked by, an hour had passed, but Samuel didn't wake Nicole up.



Let her sleep a little longer.



After years of blaming herself and worrying about Zoe's illness, Nicole could finally feel relieved at the
successful operation.



Just let her have a good rest.



Samuel got up and relaxed his arm. The pain in his chest was terrible, and his face was as pale as a
sheet of paper. But he knew he couldn't collapse, at least not here.



He called Jacob and told him to come over.



Jacob arrived before long. When he saw Samuel, he was a little worried.





"Mr. Green, you just had an operation. You should have a good rest."



"Yes. Stay here to take care of Zoe for a moment. I'm going out to run some errands.”



Samuel's words made Jacob slightly aghast.



"Mr. Green, it's still dark. Where are you going? I will drive you there.”



"No, I will be in the hospital. I'll be back in a minute. By the way, don’t wake Nicole up; let her sleep a
little longer. She is really

tired.”



Samuel looked at Nicole in the back room with a slight tenderness in his eyes.



Hearing that Samuel would be in the hospital, Jacob said nothing, and watched Samuel walk out of the
room.



Samuel found out where was Soseph’s ward and walked over.





Soseph was also in a VIP ward, and everything was equipped with the best conditions.



When he opened the room, the nurse was resting, but she looked up when hearing the sound and
looked vaguely at Samuel.



Samuel waved, and the nurse stood by.



Soseph had already woken up once, and now she kept her eyes half-closed as she couldn't fall asleep.



When the anesthetics passed, the pain flooded over her. Although there was a caregiver to take care of
her, the tremendous

pain left Soseph in a state of near-death experience.



But she bit the bullet and stuck to it.



Hearing someone come, Soseph gently opened her eyes and saw Samuel.

She was a bit surprised.





"Why are you here?” Soseph asked.



She knew Samuel was badly hurt, and she was even worried whether Samuel would make it, but he
turned up in her room!



Samuel looked at Soseph as he struggled with the pain and asked softly, "Does it hurt?”



"Yes!"



Soseph's tears welled up in an instant.



Since she was born, few people cared about her. When she saw Samuel's tenderness and love for
Nicole, she was really jealous and envious.



Now the man she loved was in front of her, asking whether she was painful, Soseph suddenly felt the
pain seemed to have

vanished.





If only Samuel were here, she wouldn't mind going through another operation.



Samuel had a sense of compassion when he saw Soseph’s tears.



This young girl was suffering because of his daughter. What reason did he have to continue to be
indifferent to Soseph?



Samuel sighed, and said in a low voice, "I was not kind to you in the base, and I'm so grateful to you for
saving Zoe. What do you want? I promise you anything I can do."



"Really?" Soseph's eyes were shining.



Samuel's heart trembled a little and he immediately added, "Except for marrying you. You know, I only
love my wife, I will never be able to love anyone else. I am grateful to you, even if you want the moon in
the sky, I will try to get it, but not my love.”



Hearing that, Soseph became depressed.





He was indeed a clever man.



He knew what she wanted!



But because of that, Soseph liked Samuel all the more.



"What if I say I want you to stay with me for three months?” Soseph looked straight at Samuel.



Samuel paused, a little frowned.



"I said, I can’t give my love to you.”



"I didn't ask you to love me. I just want you to stay with me for three months. I have no father, no
mother, no sisters and brothers. I live a poor life without knowing what is family, what is friendship, and
what is love. I don’t even know how it feels like to be cared about. I just know I have to pay what I am
eager for. Now I just want a little warmth from you, so I gave my kidney away. Can't you satisfy my
small request?"





A shadow of sadness touched Soseph’s eyes.



To tell the truth, this should not be the look of a girl of 18. That kind of loneliness made her look paler,
and make people feel

more distressed for her.



Samuel frowned.



"I don't know what you mean."



"I just want you to stay with me for three months. During these three months, you can treat me as a
sister or a friend. As long as you stay with me, I won't interfere in whatever you do.”



Samuel was baffled by Soseph’s request.



"I'll have to discuss it with my wife.”





Samuel's words darkened Soseph’s eyes again.



"You are a man, the president of the Eternal Group. Do you have to ask your wife for such a trivial
request?"



"That's my respect for her."



Hearing that, Soseph’s expression suddenly changed.
