Chapter 1507: There Is No Longer Nicole in This World

Jose Floyd embraced Nicole, his voice gentle, his eyes filled with sympathy, "There’s no longer a Nicole Seys in this world, only Nicole. From now on, my surname will be your surname. Mrs. Floyd—does this title work for you?"

Nicole smiled faintly, "I’ve waited for this title throughout my entire youth, exactly ten years. I met you when I was seventeen; after ten years of growth and transformation, I finally hear the words ’Mrs. Floyd’."

Jose Floyd remained silent for a moment, holding Nicole’s body, a tightness in his throat, "In the past, I didn’t understand how to cherish and appreciate; I learned after losing. Nicole—please tolerate my temper in the future."

Nicole chuckled softly in Jose Floyd’s arms, her voice gentle, "Then I’ll definitely cultivate you into a flawless man, so I can be carefree and willful before you."

Nicole had meant it as a joke, but was surprised when the person holding her nodded in agreement.

"Jose—I won the bet with my brother; I knew you would come looking for me, I knew you would never forget me." Nicole’s arms encircled Jose Floyd’s waist tightly, leaning against his chest, she smiled softly.

"I will never let you lose. From Miss Seys to Mrs. Floyd, Nicole, do you regret it?"

What worried him was whether she would regret it; after all, everyone knows the brilliance of being the shining jewel of the Seys Family, and it’s not easy to give up.

Yet, she had given up her family and identity for him; this kind of sacrifice out of love, no one on earth could match her.

The inflatable boat reached the entrance of Nicole’s small courtyard, which had not been flooded. Jose Floyd helped Nicole off the boat, thanked the armed police, and hand in hand, they returned to the courtyard.

With fingers tightly entwined, Nicole’s voice was low, "Jose, I don’t regret it. I cannot let go of the most important person in my life, which means I must give up some things. You have to give to gain. The Seys blood runs through my veins, connecting me to my family; whether my surname is Seys, my family will always be my family, that will never change. My brother, my dad, and my deceased grandfather—they will always love me silently behind the scenes."

"Exchanging a Seys surname and title for you is always worth it."

"The three words ’Mrs. Floyd’ move me more than ’Miss Seys.’"

"The only regret is that everyone in City C knows the news of Miss Seys’s death, so I couldn’t go back to pay last respects to grandfather when he passed away; that’s my greatest regret. Grandfather loved and cared for me, yet I couldn’t be there for his final journey."

Jose Floyd held Nicole’s body, "Whether it is you or me to see grandfather off, the sentiment is the same. I bid farewell to Old Master Seys on your behalf, so, Nicole, don’t be sad."

"You bid grandfather farewell?" Nicole looked at Jose Floyd in surprise.

During that time, afraid she couldn’t resist going back to City C when grandfather passed away, knowing that any news of her return would only bring turmoil to the Seys Family.

So she didn’t dare call back to City C, fearing she couldn’t hold back her tears, worrying and saddening everyone.

Unbeknownst to her, he had bid farewell to grandfather on her behalf.

"Nicole, let’s consider that I, as a grandson-in-law, bid farewell to Old Master Seys... I saw grandfather off. You and I are inseparable, grandfather won’t blame you. I finally understand what grandfather meant by his words before passing, they weren’t nonsensical. He said I’d thank him one day and bring you to visit him during Qingming in the future... Nicole, the Seys Family truly loves and cares for you."
