Chapter 1171 This Is Unreasonable

"Uncle Jason, you are keeping something from me!"

Nicole was certain about it and her face turned gloomy with a trace of sadness flashed across her
eyes.

Only then did Jason realize that Samuel and Nicole had come prepared, and it was very likely that they
had already known something.

He sighed and said, "Nicole, there are certain things I don't want you to know."

"But I'm involved."

"I'll get you out, even at the cost of the whole Don family. You deserve to live happily with the one you
love. As for other things, we and the Shaw family will take care of them. Just pretend that nothing has
happened and live your own life with Samuel and the children."

Jason's words made Samuel sigh.

"Uncle Jason, you know things are not always what you expect. Do you really think Nicole can get out?
Ever since Nicole married me, trouble has kept cropping up. Do you think she wants to be involved?
It'd be better to face it rather than ignore it. Uncle Jason, she has the right to know. At least we can
take precautions. It's better than knowing nothing and being used by others. What do you think? "

Samuel's words made great sense, but Jason was not swayed this time.

He looked at Samuel and Nicole and then closed his eyes, looking extremely tired.

"Enough. I'm tired now. If you want to stay, ask the housekeeper to set a room for you. If you want to go
home, you'd better leave before it's too late."



"Uncle Jason!"

Nicole wasn't expecting this.

Samuel stopped her.

He could see determination in Jason's tired eyes.

Jason had set his mind to keep it.

"We're staying here tonight."

"Alright."

Jason nodded and asked the housekeeper to set the room. Then he said exhaustedly, "I'm tired. I'll go
rest now. You guys make yourself at home."

"Uncle Jason."

Nicole wanted to say something, but Jason waved his hand and went into his room in his wheelchair.

Samuel's face hardened.

'What on earth made Jason so determined to keep it?'

Nicole was a little anxious.

"Samuel, what should we do now?"

"If he's determined to keep it, there's nothing we can do. You know he was a soldier who went through
special training. He is quite a keeper."

Samuel's words upset Nicole even more.



"What exactly did Sally want when she came to meet Uncle Jason? What did she say to him? And why
did he act like this?"

Nicole was all puzzled.

"I don't know, but it should have something to do with the Don family. Otherwise, Uncle Jason would
not act like this. Perhaps it has something to do with you. He is truly worried about you. I can tell."

Nicole certainly knew it.

But it was exactly because she knew it that she was so anxious.

She wanted to share some of the burden for the Don family, but under the current situation, she had no
idea what to do.

Samuel noticed her anxiety and gently held her in his arms. "Don't worry, we will find the way as long
as we try." he whispered.

"But I'm worried about Uncle Jason."

"He is also worried about you. Now let's go to our room first."

Samuel knew that standing here in the living room wouldn't help.

Nicole sighed and called Edwin that she was staying at the Shaw's tonight so that Edwin and the kids
wouldn't worry.

In the bedroom, Nicole noticed that the room was exactly the same as before and it was spotlessly
clean. Someone must have been taking care of her room.

Her father was one of the Dons, so she had always felt a sense of belonging here. However, she was
slightly depressed when she had moved in today.



"Samuel, what do you think Sally has to do with the Don family?"

"I have no idea."

And Samuel meant it.

'If Sally had a good relationship with the Don family, why didn't she come to the Don family for help
earlier?

What kind of help did she need?

And under what identity did she come to the Don family for help?

Was it Sally or Audrey?'

Something hit Samuel all of a sudden.

"Nicole, Sally looks the same as your mom. What identity do you think she used when she came to find
Uncle Jason?"

Nicole paused for a moment, as if she hadn't thought of this before.

"Are you saying that Sally used my mom's identity to meet Jason? But Mom is gone and Jason knows
about it. If she used Mom's identity, how could she explain Mom's death? After all, Mom and Dad all
lost their life in that explosion."

Hearing this, Samuel frowned.

"Even if Sally did use Mom's identity and Jason fell for it, why did he keep it from me? It's
unreasonable."

Samuel fell silent again.



'It's right.'

'If Sally used Audrey's identity or cheated Jason, he wouldn't hide it from Nicole.'

So Sally didn't use Audrey's identity?

If so, wouldn't Jason be curious? Wouldn't he ask Nicole if Edwin had lost a daughter back then?

Sally and Audrey were of the same age. And the one Audrey loved was Xander. In other words, when
Sally was kidnapped, neither Xander nor Jason knew about it. The only people who knew about it were
probably Nicole's grandfather, Harry Don and Edwin.

Since they were comrades, it wouldn't be surprising if Harry knew about it. But Harry definitely wouldn't
tell his kids about this.

Therefore, if Sally told Jason that he was Audrey's twin sister, Jason would investigate instead of hiding
it from Nicole. Furthermore, Jason did not want Nicole to go to Country F, which indicated that he knew
something about Country F.

Then what is the secret?'

The more Samuel thought about it, the more confused he became.

Nicole was also puzzled.

'What is the thing that I shouldn't know?

Jason said he would get me out.

What does that mean?

What happened, exactly?



Major has been picking on me relentlessly. Is it possible that this has something to do with Sally, or
specifically, with Sally coming to find Jason?'

Nicole couldn't figure it out, and she felt her brain was about to blow up.

Seeing his wife like this, Samuel was a little worried.

"Sweetie. Stop thinking about it. We will figure it out anyway. I'm worried about you."

Samuel drew Nicole to sit on his lap.

'My wife seems to be gaining weight lately.'

Feeling the weight on his lap, Samuel thought.

Nicole could feel that Samuel's body was a little stiff, and she knew he was kind of turned on.

Samuel's smell filled her nose, which also turned Nicole on.

It was still snowing outside. Although the room was heated, Nicole shrank back into Samuel's arms to
seek for warmth.

"Samuel, I'm cold."

She didn't know if it was mental reason that made her cold. She just felt that she was surrounded by
indescribable coldness.

Samuel held her tightly.

"No matter what happens, you still have me, our kids, grandpa and Tim, right?"

Samuel knew that she was upset and said so. However, Nicole didn't feel any better.



Seeing her like this, Samuel pressed his body against Nicole's on the bed and kissed her.

"Samuel..."

Nicole was caught off guard by the kiss. She wanted to push him, but her hands were held above her
head by Samuel and she could not move. Nicole could only let him do it.

In no time, Nicole began to enjoy it.

Samuel's move was like a storm, making it impossible for Nicole to think about other things.

After that, Nicole fell asleep tired.

Samuel wanted to smoke, but he knew that Nicole didn't like it. So he took a shower, tucked Nicole up
and went downstairs.

Lights were still on in the living room, but Jason was not there.

The housekeeper and servants were asleep now.

Samuel lit a cigarette, blowing a ring of smoke, then he noticed that the light of a room on the other
side of the living room was on.

That should be Xander's studio.

Samuel had heard from Nicole before.

He thought for a moment, then walked over.

The door was open. Samuel glanced inside and saw Jason looking at Xander's painting in his
wheelchair.



He went from paintings on the wall to sketches in his hand.

Hearing something behind him, Jason did not turn around but whispered, "Nicole is asleep?"

"Yes."

Samuel was casually dressed in a bathrobe, his muscular chest half covered by the robe. It was
indescribably seductive.

Jason glanced at him and frowned slightly, but he didn't say anything. He just looked at Xander's
painting and said, "If it weren't for my father's sudden death in battle, my mother wouldn't have made
Xander back into the army. If Xander hadn't joined the army, he would have lived happily with Audrey
now." After all, he was such a poetic man who loved painting. Cruel and ferocious warfare ruined a
great artist. "

Samuel looked at Xander's paintings. To be honest, they were indeed pretty good. Just as Jason had
said, if Xander did not join the army, he might be a great artist. Unfortunately, people couldn't turn back
time, and one's choice might change many things.

Samuel buried his emotions and looked at Jason, racking his brains.

Smelling cigarette, Jason said faintly, "Give me one."

Samuel was slightly surprised.

He knew Jason smoked, but he wasn't addicted to it. Jason wouldn't smoke at home, especially in
Xander's studio. It seemed that Jason was in an extremely bad mood.

Samuel did not ask anything but lit a cigarette and handed it to Jason.

Jason exhaled the smoke through his nose and mouth.



But a cigarette wouldn't do any help to Jason's sadness. He looked at Xander's painting and suddenly
said, "Do you know my second brother?"
