When Samuel saw Nicole, three mercenaries were attacking her. And soon, Samuel pierced them dead.
"Samuel, why are you here? Where's Zoe?"
Seeing Samuel coming over, Nicole was very worried about Zoe and hurriedly asked.
She was out of breath and getting worse physically.
Samuel looked at her worriedly. After kicking the last mercenaries away, he pulled Nicole into his arms and whispered, "Emory's men get here to help us, so I come to check on you."
"Who taught Zoe how to shoot? She is so adept."
Nicole's still somewhat shocked.
She vaguely remembered that the ablest child was Lucas. She did not expect that Zoe could shoot so well. She was concealing her talent in the shooting.
Samuel touched her head softly and said, "When we went for the special training, Lucas was worried about her health. He asked the instructor not to be strict with Zoe. The instructor used to be a soldier under me. He thought that Zoe had to defend herself in case anything happened, and he discovered Zoe's talent in the shooting. He asked me for advice then, and I agreed. After all, as a Green, Zoe cannot be too weak. Too many incidents may happen, and we can't save her at the first possible moment. And she needs the most basic defensive techniques."
"I don't know anything about this."
Hearing Samuel's explanation, Nicole heaved a sigh of relief. But she still worriedly said, "How can Zoe withstand the recoil of the sniper rifle?"
"The sniper rifle was modified. And the recoil can't hurt her. That sniper rifle was specific to her and was brought in her luggage. Besides, when she was in the Cawker's, Nash probably taught her some self-defense tactics. Don't be deceived by your daughter's angelic face. This is her disguise and her secret skill."
As Samuel spoke, he picked up Nicole.
"Alright, don't worry about Zoe. You're really getting weaker. Just a small fight and you are panting now. You have to go jogging with me tomorrow morning after you get up."
Nicole did not reply.
"Joseph is in the kitchen. Let's go back and pick him up."
"Wait, I have to deal with them."
Samuel did not want Nicole to help him, so he put her on a rock to rest.
Nicole was still a little worried then. Soon, she was a little dizzy by Samuel's kisses.
After Juliana and the others dealt with the mercenaries, they saw Zoe wiping her sniper rifle with a serious expression and went shocked.
"Miss Zoe, you are the one that took the shot?"
"Yes, what's wrong?"
Hearing Zoe's answer, Juliana immediately swallowed her greetings.
Juliana knew Zoe was not the one to mess up with.
"Nothing."
Juliana hurriedly smiled at Zoe, feeling extremely depressed.
"Your men need more practice. They are so slow. What if something happens to me and Mom? It would be such a pity if beautiful ladies like us were killed by them. Oh, right, I'm hungry. I wanna eat things that can fly. Go get me some."
After saying that, Zoe put away the sniper rifle and went for Joseph.
Juliana was a little devastated.
"When will she leave?"
"Miss Juliana, she seems to have just come here."
A man plucked up the courage and answered Juliana, but Juliana rolled her eyes at him.
"Do I need your reminder? Go to work!"
"Yes."
After Juliana roared, she felt that the wound hurt even more.
'Things can fly?'
'What things exactly?'
For a moment, Juliana wanted to be transferred away.
When Samuel dealt with all the mercenaries, he carried Nicole and came back.
"Lock up a few survivors in the cave. I need to know who their mastermind is. Keep them alive. If they die, you'll be buried with them."
Samuel's voice was very cold, and his aura was so strong that nobody dared to speak out loud.
Zoe was a little depressed. She couldn't continue her disguise.
"Daddy, where's Joseph?"
"In the kitchen cabinet."
Nicole hurriedly said.
Juliana's men immediately carried him out.
Joseph didn't wake up, Zoe asked someone to carry him into the room and guard him aside.
Nicole was brought into the bedroom by Samuel.
"These mercenaries were so clear about our whereabouts. Those behind them are not ordinary people."
Nicole was worried.
"Maybe they just wanted to stop us from doing something. Perhaps it has something to do with Emory."
Samuel thought for a moment and said,
"Then are we still going to visit the grave of Vincent?"
"Yes, why not? You and Zoe stay at home."
Samuel was worried too.
"No. I'm just a little tired. I can protect myself."
Nicole was also very helpless towards her health.
Recently, Samuel had bought much tonic to replenish her. But she was still weak. May it had something to do with the miscarriage?
Samuel still wanted to say something, but he stopped because he knew Nicole. He decided to go with her rather than leaving her worried at home.
"Then let's wait until Joseph wakes up."
"Alright, I'll sleep as well."
Nicole looked tired.
Zoe got out of Joseph's embrace.
Joseph frowned slightly and asked doubtfully, "Who?"
"Someone worked for Uncle Emory. They were misunderstood by Daddy and were beaten. If it weren't for her bringing men here today, we would probably have been killed."
Zoe looked so scared. Joseph immediately asked, "No problem, I'll go and see her."
"Thank you, Joseph."
Zoe brought Joseph who brought the medicine box to Juliana.
"Juliana, I asked my brother to cure you. You must be in pain, right? Don't worry. Joseph had excellent medical skills. I guarantee that he'll heal you and stop your pain."
At that moment, Zoe was like a beautiful doll, her voice was pleasant to hear. However, Juliana involuntarily trembled.
'What was she going to do?'
When Zoe saw Juliana looking at her in horror, she hurriedly lowered her head and cried, "Juliana, I know that my Daddy misunderstood you before and beat you up. You may feel very uncomfortable, but my Daddy didn't do it on purpose. If you had said that you worked for Uncle Emory, my Daddy would not have had the wrong person."
'So, it was my fault?'
Juliana twitched her mouth.
Seeing that Juliana didn't say anything, Joseph couldn't help but look at her coldly.
"Juliana, Zoe wasn't in a good physical condition, but she still cares about you for you saved us. She dragged me over to heal your injuries. I think you should thank her."
"What?"
Juliana was depressed.
'What did she do?'
"I don't do anything, do I?"
"But that's exactly why gets my sister so sad."
Juliana got even more depressed because of what Joseph said.
Anyway, it was as if she was wrong.
They were family...
"I..."
"Alright, let's go to the room. I'll see cure you."
After Joseph finished speaking, he pulled Zoe back.
Zoe turned around and saw Juliana, grimacing, which pissed Juliana off.
'Was Zoe sent to upset her?'
It was such a sneaky move.
'I owed Zoe a huge favor now?' Juliana thought.
She was very upset. Suddenly, her phone rang. Her face changed after she read the message.
