Quickly leaving the Brook Group building, the guy hopped into a car and called Jacob instantly.
“Mr. Brown, breaking news!"
"What?"
Jacob was all ears.
The guy whispered, “I just eavesdropped on the conversation between Allen and Charlotte. It seems
that it was Miss Harrison who drove Mrs. Green to the Back Sea and tossed her into the water. Mrs.
Green was still in a coma at that time.”
Hearing this, Jacob was stunned.
"I see.”
He hung up the phone and dashed towards the hospital.
Samuel, at the same time, was fighting with Mike like frenzied. He could think of nothing but to look for
Nicole, and no matter what Mike said, he just wouldn't listen to it.
Blood had oozed out of the back of his hand as he pulled out the needle too violently before, but he
didn't give it a damn. His bloodshot eyes revealed that he hadn't got enough rest for along time.
He didn’t dare to close his eyes. He couldn't. Because every time he closed his eyes, he would see
Nicole lying in a pool of blood with her eyes wide open in grudge, asking why he didn't save her.
"Sam, stop it. You'll die if you keep being like this, do you know?"
Mike had never seen him so crazy.
Samuel still ignored him and insisted on jumping into the sea to look for her.
This was what Jacob saw when he arrived.
The corners of his eyes were a little wet.
This scene looked so familiar. Five years ago, it was just like this - Samuel wished he could throw
himself into the fire by her side. Now, Nicole was in the deep sea. How could he possibly bear it?
Jacob hurried Samuel and whispered, "Mr. Green, I’ve found out who did this."
"Who?"
Samuel's eyes suddenly turned frosty.
Mike also frowned slightly.
He was so afraid of hearing Viola's name, but right now, there was nothing he could do.
Jacob stared at Samuel and whispered, “It’s Charlotte Harrison. Our source in the Brook Group
confirmed that Charlotte had admitted it herself in Allen’s office that she drove Mrs. Green to the Back
Sea and tossed her into the water. Mrs. Green was in a coma before.”
"Charlotte Harrison?"
Samuel's eyes were perishing as he murmured the name.
At the moment, Viola ran in, crying.
"Mike, my mom's gonna abandon me! She said that Nicole is my sister and her kid with Xander, her
most beloved man. And just because I gave Nicole to Allen, she’s forbidding me from stepping into her
villa anymore! What should I do?”
Viola simply threw herself into Mike's arms.
Ever since she was a child, she would always go to Mike when upset. To her, Mike was like a big
brother, always caring for her and warming her heart.
Now that she was desperate, she directly ran over to his arms when she learned that he was here. She
didn’t think it over why Mike would be here.
Seeing Viola, Samuel found it a little hard to breathe as a result of indignation.
Mike quickly embraced her in his arms and asked, "What did you say? Nicole is your sister?”
"I won't buy it! Never! But my mom took a DNA test with Nicole and my dad and I both saw the result.
I've always thought that my mom doesn't like me because it was her personality. But now I know she
doesn't love me at all. She said Nicole was her kid with her most beloved man and her lifeline. How
could I know it? And I have no idea that she was gonna die. I just gave her to Allen. Allen had promised
me that he would take her away and disappear from Samuel and me, and that he wouldn't harm her.
But why does my mom have to pin it all on me? Why?"
Viola complained in tears.
Samuel's eyes turned even frostier.
“If she’s dead, all of you who have done harm to her would go to hell! And I'll make sure of it
personally.”
His sword-like words were so scary that Viola immediately stopped crying. Only then did she find that
Samuel was lying on the bed, glaring at her with his bloodshot eyes, as if he was gonna kill her the next
second.
"S... Samuel?"
Viola was stunned.
"Get out of here!”
With a murderous look, Samuel scolded her in a hoarse but frightening voice. Viola was quite scared
and clung to Mike's clothes.
Mike frowned slightly and wanted to say something to Samuel, but at the end of the day, he uttered no
word.
Viola looked at Mike for help, pleading.
Only this time, Mike didn’t pamper her anymore and shook his head softly.
Samuel suddenly pulled out the needle and blood flowed out of his veins, but he didn't care at all.
"Where's Charlotte?”
Samuel's voice was so deep and suffocating.
Jacob quickly replied, “Our men have had her under control. They are outside."
“Let's go!"
Samuel jumped to his feet and walked out.
"Sam!"
Mike called him from behind.
Samuel stopped and looked back at Mike, “I strongly advise you to take her away right now, when you
can still protect her and I don’t have the time to deal with her. Otherwise, don’t blame me for putting
aside our brotherhood.”
Viola somehow shivered at these words.
The man she had always considered handsome and charming was looking at her like Hades, making it
crystal clear that he wanted her dead.
That feeling was like a kind of magic. It instantly drained all the heat from her body and curdled her
blood, making her feel so cold. She wanted to escape from the place, but her legs were out of control
and couldn't move at all.
Samuel stopped looking at them and walked out with Jacob.
“Let's go take a look, too.”
Seeing her like this, Mike suddenly realized that his doting on her over the years seemed to have
harmed her.
Fine. This was a good opportunity for her to see Samuel's devil side and sober up. She should know
who she shouldn't mess with.
“I'm not going.”
Viola was a little scared, but Mike still took her with him.
They drove to the seaside one after the other.
At the seaside, the wind was blowing violently and seemed to be stronger than usual, as if it was
complaining or clamoring.
Samuel got out of the car, and Jacob quickly put on a coat for him.
“Where is she?"
Jacob clapped his hands, and several people brought Charlotte, who was tied up tightly, to Samuel.
Charlotte was most scared when she saw Samuel.
She had followed Allen for a few years and had known quite a lot about Samuel. At first, she thought
that he wouldn't make much of a noise as he had fallen like this. But she didn’t expect him to beat up
their tricks and schemes one after another. What's worse, he even managed to trap Allen of the
Brooks!
Now, Allen's case of instigating people to frame Samuel had already been submitted to the
procuratorate. Meanwhile, the Brooks had incurred Samuel's wrath because of Allen's mistake and was
cast into the spotlight of public opinion, thus many projects were forced to hit the pause button.
Worst of all, she herself was tied up here by Samuel's people while no others knew any of this.
Charlotte was more than frightened.
“What do you want, Samuel Green?”
Charlotte's voice was trembling out of fear.
Samuel looked at the woman in front of him. She was very beautiful, but different from Nicole. There
was a trace of wildness and seductiveness in her beauty, like Cleopatra.
But it was such a beauty who threw his Nicole into the sea.
“Where is Nicole?"
Samuel's voice wasn't loud and even carried a trace of suppression. The air seemed to have
coagulated as he spoke, making people quite uncomfortable and suffocated.
Charlotte couldn't help but swallow and said, “I don’t know what you're talking about.”
Samuel closed his eyes. Jacob quickly went forward and covered Charlotte's mouth. The next moment,
Samuel punched Charlotte in the stomach hard and fast.
"God..."
Charlotte was in so much pain that her entire body was convulsing, but she didn’t dare to shout out.
She could only curve into a ball as sweat burst out.
Samuel punched her so hard that she couldn't even raise her head. With her hands tied up, Charlotte
was lying on the ground like a dying dog.
The next moment, Jacob grabbed her hair and forced her to look at Samuel's frosty eyes.
"Did you drive Nicole here and throw her into the sea?”
Samuel's voice was still calm, like he was just talking about the weather today. But that was exactly
what curdled Charlotte's blood.
Charlotte hurriedly shook her head.
“It wasn't me. I've no idea what you're talking about. Nicole and I were good friends. How could I
possibly harm her? I... Ah!"
Before Charlotte could finish her words, Samuel had crushed her chin.
The creaking sound of the bones frightened Viola so much that she nearly collapsed on the ground.
Fortunately, Mike supported her, but he did not let her escape. Instead, he insisted on her witnessing all
this and then whispered, "This is Samuel, the real Samuel. Nicole is his bottom line. If she was alive,
he would still be a human, a normal person. But if she was gone, he would be a devil, a devil that
doesn't give a shit about nothing. Do you understand?"
Viola's entire body trembled violently, but she couldn't utter a single word.
She had always thought that Samuel was a gentleman. At least when she saw him with Zoe and
Nicole, she felt that this man was really gentle, so gentle that she wished she could snatch him from
Nicole.
But how could such a gentleman beat a woman?
And so ruthlessly?
Viola couldn't imagine. She even felt that everything was just an illusion.
But Samuel didn't give a damn about her thoughts. He only said coldly after crushing Charlotte’s chin,
"You don't deserve to be Nicole's friend. Since you're full of lies here, then go down there to accompany
Nicole. Perhaps you've got a lot to say to her."
"No!"
Charlotte shook her head in horror, but Samuel didn't even look at her. He ordered Jacob, "Tie a stone
to her feet and throw her down."
"Yes!"
Without the slightest hesitation, Jacob did as Samuel ordered.
Charlotte struggled hard, but it was all futile.
Viola witnessed the whole process of Charlotte being tied to a large stone and thrown into the sea.
As the sound of Charlotte falling into the sea came, she straightly collapsed and blacked out.
