Nicole left with Joseph. Before she walked out, she took a glance at Samuel with mixed feeling.
She wanted to stay and guard Samuel, but Morgan refused.
Perhaps it was because the unique treatment of the Harper Town could not be known by others.
But Joseph was Morgan's disciple, anyway.
And he was her only disciple. Could it be that Joseph was not allowed here, either?
According to Morgan's behavior, it seemed that no one was allowed here.
Confused as she was, Nicole was delighted to hear Morgan's words that the chances were ten to one.
Everything else didn't matter as long as Samuel could recover.
After leaving the room with Joseph, Nicole followed Morgan's instructions and had the surveillance camera removed.
"Mommy, we could have secretly monitored her. What if she did something to Samuel...?" Lucas disagreed.
Nicole turned to him and whispered, "I don't think Morgan would do that. Anyway, she's Joseph's master. Even for the sake of Joseph, she won't go too far."
Nicole was flattering Joseph. Meanwhile, she was reminding Lucas of Joseph's feelings.
Joseph's heart wrenched. He was so moved that he could hardly hold back his tears.
Nicole really treated him as her own child. He swore to himself that he would defend them forever.
It hit Lucas. He turned to Joseph with embarrassment, "Joseph, sorry. I was just too anxious."
"Never mind. I see."
Zoe did not say anything. Ever since she returned from the Cawker's, she had remained quiet. She walked over and held Joseph's hand, as if she had made him a promise.
She promised that she would always be there, never leaving or forsaking.
Joseph tightened his grip, anxiously waiting with Nicole.
However, after they walked out of the room, Morgan suddenly knelt down and kowtowed to Samuel when she thought the surveillance camera had been removed.
When she raised her head again, tears had streaked her face.
"Mr. Samuel! Mr. Samuel!"
She choked up, but she didn't know what she should say.
Samuel was still in a coma, but Morgan appeared to be somewhat different.
She appeared to be respectful and devout.
She took out a silver needle and directly acupunctured it into the back of Samuel's head.
Samuel trembled but still remained motionless again.
Morgan did not dare to delay. Twelve needles were pierced into different parts of Samuel's body in one go. After that, Morgan was drenched in sweat, but she didn't dare to stop. She took out a small box from her pocket.
And there was clearly a bug in it!
A Golden Bug!
If someone that knew a little about bug were here, he would definitely turn his eyes green.
The Golden Bug was known as the king of bugs.
A lot of people dreamed of it!
Judging from the color of this one, it had lived for at least a hundred years.
The moment the Golden Bug was released, it jumped onto Samuel's forehead.
It was covered by some frost as well, and with a flash of golden light, it entered into Samuel's head.
Morgan hurried to kneel down and kowtowed. She then kept babbling something mysterious.
Not long after, black blood exuded from the standing needles. And quickly, the sheet went wet and sent forth a stink.
Morgan, however, did not move. Instead, she knelt there, babbling.
About an hour later, the blood that exuded turned red. And only then did Morgan heave a sigh of relief.
At this moment, Samuel suddenly opened his eyes, his eyes cold and scarlet.
"Mr. Samuel, you are awake."
Morgan said with excitement.
However, in the next moment, Samuel quickly got up and grabbed Morgan's neck
"Mr. Samuel...!"
Morgan was almost off the ground.
Her face went green, but Samuel turned a blind eye to it. The killing intent and ruthlessness of him made Morgan shiver.
"How dare you!"
Samuel tightened his grip. His hand was like a claw made of steel. Threads of blood seeped out, dyeing Samuel's fingers red. Coupled with his red eyes, the scene looked extremely strange.
He now was like the Asura, carrying emotionless killing intents. The air in the whole room seemed to be frozen.
It was hard for Morgan to breathe. The fear of being the verge of death seized her. Her focus strayed. But Samuel still darkened his face with his eyes scarlet. It seemed that he was standing on the summit of a hill made by bones and corpses.
"Mr. Samuel, I'm here to save you."
Morgan hurried to explain.
Even if she finally died with regret, Samuel could not change his view on her.
Now that he heard what Zama had done to him, his eyes went even redder. A storm was coming, and it was extremely depressing in the room.
Morgan continued before Samuel could say something.
"This bug is not harmful to you. Nothing would trigger it except that inherited ring. You got injured on your head, coupled with some certain medicine, so it arose. If I haven't got a Golden Bug, I'm afraid...."
Morgan didn't dare to continue.
But Samuel burst into laughter.
"You are afraid I will die soon, right?"
Morgan was too afraid to reply.
Puzzled, she summoned courage and asked, "Mr. Samuel, what medicine did you take?"
Samuel paused.
What medicine did he take?
It was Blair that prescribed for him first, and then Joseph. The latter killed his pain quite effectively.
"Your disciple prescribed for me. Don't you know that?"
It reminded Morgan of the medicine that Joseph had mentioned to her. Her face went pale in a second.
Sure enough...
Samuel curled his lips up. He appeared to be so evil that Morgan didn't dare to meet his gaze.
But Samuel didn't care about that. He sneered, "So, it was caused by you, right? You have early expected that I would inherit those dirty things, right?"
"Mr. Samuel, I didn't dare. Besides, I didn't know that you were the successor, let alone calculating you? As for the memory you inherited, it might be dirty. But what is dirty was not the Harper Town. Mr. Samuel, Zama placed the bug that can reserve memory in herself and give birth to you so that you could have the memory of that. She wished you could avenge the Harper Town. A total of 185 people were killed! Even their souls could not at ease!"
Morgan kowtowed again.
Her mother had also placed a bug that can reserve memory in herself. Therefore, it reminded her the deep hatred every night she went to bed.
Among the few people left in the Harper Town, everyone had that kind of bug in their bodies except Maia and her brother. Back then, they happened to be out of the town and didn't get one.
For so many years, they had been waiting for the new successor.
They had suspected Samuel and Vincent. But Zama didn't find anything special in them before she died. She had observed for so long but still failed.
Morgan had thought that Zama hated her since she didn't place a Memory Bug in her.
However, it wasn't until today did she realize that Zama didn't place a bug because that was not the right time. The ring in Lucas' hand and what Samuel behaved today told her that.
Now that she had found the new successor, she had found the mainstay. She would definitely follow his lead. She even wished that Samuel could avenge her clansmen right now!
