Chapter 745 Thank You, Honey

"Enough. Go to bed now."

Overcome by jealousy, Samuel grabbed Tim's arm, pulling him onto the bed.

Tim was still very emotional.

Samuel asked the doctor to have him sedated so that he could fall asleep for the moment.

The doctor and the nurse wiped sweat from their head as they showed their gratitude towards Samuel.

"Mr. Green, thank you so much for today."

"Sorry about that. His wife is on that plane. Thank you for your understanding."

Samuel said vaguely.

"Never mind."

After that, the doctor and the nurse left.

Nicole watched Tim and sighed, "Fate has played a joke on them, hasn't it?"

"They are destined to meet and fall in love but never get a chance to be together anymore. Tim is
probably going to feel despondent for a while."

Even though Tim was unconscious, his brows drew together.

Samuel knew the feeling of losing a loved one. It was as if the whole world had collapsed and he could
never get over it and move on.

If Laurel hadn't stopped him, he would have ended his life when he heard Nicole had died in the fire.



He sighed and said in a low voice, "I'm going to book a hotel. We'll be staying here for a while. Tim
won't leave until Maia is found."

"Thank you, honey."

Nicole looked at Samuel with some guilt.

Samuel caressed her head and said, "I'll be fine as long as you don't wear yourself out."

"Alright."

Nicole knew Samuel cared about her, so she wouldn't do anything that worried him.

Samuel left for the hotel. Nicole had someone investigate the air crash. Soon, she found out about the
crashing spot.

It was already evening when Tim woke up.

He was fine with being sedated. The first thing he asked was, "Have you found her plane?"

"I have. But you have to make sure you are strong enough to go there. I don't want to carry you back. I
know your feeling, but you have to calm down and be rational. If you can do that, we'll take you there."

"Cut the crap! Just tell me! Where is she?"

Tim did not give a direct answer.

Samuel knew how he felt. So he just brought some anti-inflammatory drugs, got into the car with them
and headed for the place where the crash happened.

There were a crowd of people there.



Traces showed that the airplane had crashed into the mountain.

Tim almost collapsed at the sight of this.

He rushed forward like crazy and began to search for Maia.

"Tim, don't...."

Nicole wanted to stop him, but she was stopped by Samuel.

"Let him do whatever he wants even if it's pointless. He will have to take it eventually. All we can do is
to be there for him."

Nicole suddenly felt a little upset.

"If I haven't treated Maia like that, would she still leave? Why else would she get on the plane?"

Samuel felt so bad to hear her blaming herself. He held her tightly in his arms.

"None of this is your fault. Something is meant to happen and there is nothing you can do about it,
okay?"

"I just feel so sorry for Tim."

"He'll get over it. He is a grown man. It can be pretty hard though."

Samuel watched Tim's madness as if he was looking at himself five years ago.

At that time, he almost rushed into the fire and ended his life for Nicole.

The same thing also occurred to Nicole as she looked at Samuel.

"When you heard that I had died in the fire five years ago, were you also acting like this?"



Although Jacob had told her about it before, she still hoped to hear it from Samuel himself.

Samuel frowned slightly, but his eyes were much softer.

"I couldn't think properly. All I knew was that my wife was still in there. I had to stop the fire. I had to go
in. But there were so many people stopping me. Why were they stopping me? My wife was still in the
fire. I shouted, but no one listened. In the end, it was Jacob who knocked me out and brought me back.
When I woke up again, it was all over. I had gone back and looked for you, but in vain. At that time, I
felt the whole world's colors had faded. It was gray and depressing, so depressing that even if I wanted
to cry, my tears were dry."

Nicole began to feel bad hearing Samuel talk about it.

She put her arm around him and whispered, "If I hadn't knew the truth after returning abroad, weren't
you afraid that I will take revenge on you?"

"Nope. As long as you're alive, I'm willing to take whatever that is coming my way."

Samuel and Nicole beamed at each other, feeling closer than ever.

Tim searched for a long time. The sun was setting and he was exhausted, but he still couldn't find
Maia.

There were many broken limbs and bones, and it was impossible to tell who they belonged to.

Tim kept lying to himself that he wasn't looking hard enough and that she could still be alive. But the
more he looked the more desperate he became.

Samuel and Nicole were heartbroken to see Tim like this.

"Drink some water and have some rest, Tim. It might be good news if she couldn't be found."



Tim forced a smile.

"If I had seen this coming, I would never let her leave."

"Where was Maia flying to?"

Nicole had been wondering about this, but she never had a chance to ask.

Tim took a sip of water and said, "Her brother called and said he was sick. Maia wanted to visit him. I
offered to go with her. But she said she hadn't told her brother about me yet. Maybe next time. She left
in a hurry and I didn't get to do anything. I just saw her off like that. I never thought...."

Tim started to feel worse.

Samuel's brows drew nearer.

"Her brother was sick? How come we never know?"

"You know her brother?"

"Yeah, his name is Trevin Harper. We have just seen him lately and he didn't appear sick. When he
was calling Maia, we're with him. He didn't say anything about being sick at all."

Nicole wanted to tell Tim Maia once said that she didn't have a boyfriend. But she was afraid Tim
wouldn't be able to take it.

Tim hurriedly said, "Then can you reach him now? Ask him if Maia has arrived. Maybe she has missed
the plane."

This was Tim's last hope.

Neither Nicole nor Samuel wanted to shatter it.



"I'll give him a call."

Samuel took out his phone and dialed Trevin's number.

Trevin picked up at once.

"Hello, Mr. Green?"

"Has your sister arrived yet?"

Samuel asked without preamble.

Trevin paused for a while and continued, "How did you know she is coming? She just got off the plane
and I was about to pick her up."

Hearing Trevin's words, Tim immediately sat up.

"When did she call you?"

"You are?"

"It's not important. I'm asking you, when did Maia call you?"

Tim got very excited.

"Ten minutes ago. Why?" Trevin said.

Ten minutes ago?

Tim paused for a moment and suddenly burst into laughter.

"Maia is fine. She is fine!"



Nicole and Samuel watched Tim laughing like mad, feeling hard to sympathize.

Samuel said to Trevin, "Send me your address and I'll call you back."

"Alright, Mr. Green."

Trevin sent his location to Samuel and hung up the phone.

Tim's laugh died down.

The sudden silence after the wild laughter froze the air. It was so suffocating.

Nicole patted Tim on his shoulder and comforted him, "Don't overthink. She's still alive. Isn't that the
best news?"

"Yeah, it is. But why would she lie to me? I saw her buy the plane ticket, but she got on a different
plane. Why isn't she honest with me? Am I not good enough for her?"

This was the first time Tim had lost all his confidence.

"Don't be like this, Tim. You're great. Maia must have a good reason for that. Let's sort thing out when
we meet again."

Nicole's words brought him up short.

Seeing Tim like this, Samuel couldn't take it anymore, "What are you waiting for? Get in the car! We will
go to Trevin's place and see what Maia is playing at. No matter what feelings you have for this woman,
you gotta understand whether she is worth it or not. Come on, Tim! Nicole and I will be there for you."

Samuel directly picked Tim off the ground.

Tim looked at Samuel with a bitter smile.



"You must think I'm so stupid to be played by a woman and be so serious about it. This isn't me."

"Everyone has to go through something like this. Perhaps you two are just not meant to be. Don't worry
about others as long as you think it's worth it. That's the typical you, Tim."

Samuel's words lit up Tim's eyes.

Yeah!

He had to understand why Maia was doing this.

Was it fun to her?

Jase has some secret connections. Could there be someone else behind all of this?

Tim's eyes glowed with determination.

No matter who it was, he had to figure it all out!
