Seeing Nicole grinding her teeth and being desperate to kill her, Zama sneered complacently.
"Do you think that you and Samuel can easily sever my ties in the Seapolis City and with the Green
family in the past twenty years? Samuel treated me very well. He was very obedient. It was because of
you, such a wicked woman, that he escaped from my control and refused to acknowledge his family.
He knows I am his mother, but he still goes against my will. If it hadn't been for you, I would have
accomplished a lot, and Night Elf Empire would have been mine!" Nicole, I despise you and you little
tricks!"
Zama stepped forward, slapping Nicole in the face.
There was a scent of blood in Nicole's mouth, and her cheek was burning with pain.
"How do you feel? Does it hurt?"
Zama grabbed her long hair and said fiercely, "I said before I am his mother, your mother-in-law. How
dare you attack me! Even if you were fortunate to escape once, I will punish you. Nicole, you'd better
be prepared. I won't let you get away with it!"
Nicole felt that her scalp was almost torn off. Even so, she spat on Zama's face.
"You suck! Do you really think you can harm me? Let me tell you. Samuel will avenge me when he
wakes up!"
"Well! Are you still fantasizing that my son will save you? Unfortunately, if you hadn't drugged him, he
might have come to save you. Tell you the truth. Samuel will stay asleep until tomorrow night. Do you
think that Tim can replace my men? You are simply too naive! It's not only Samuel. Mrs. Don will not
wake up. When my son awakes, you will be dead. Everything will be too late."
Zama punched Nicole again.
Nicole felt her stomach hurt so badly that it almost exploded.
So Zama knew how to fight!
She underestimated Zama.
Nicole was trembling with pain. Cold sweat was running down her spine.
Zama jeered at Nicole who was in a mess and said, "You didn't expect that, did you? I am a maid of the
Green family. I have been working hard as a servant for more than 20 years. How can I fight? To tell
you the truth, I am a Judo expert! So do you think a weak woman like you can beat me?"
"You will go to hell!"
Nicole spat out blood. She had underestimated Zama.
Zama, however, smiled in satisfaction.
"Go to hell? I'm afraid you won't be able to see that. You'll die today. Only when you die will I get
everything I want and my son will come back to me. Nicole, don't blame me. It's only because you're in
my way."
"I'm in the way of the person behind you."
Nicole put on a fierce expression.
Zama paused for a moment before saying with a sneer, "You can't even defeat me, let alone him. Don't
be so naive. You won't hold a candle to him. You won't know who he is!"
Nicole was somewhat surprised to see her admiration for that person.
"You did everything for him, didn't you? You like him, instead of Samuel's father. Is that so?"
Nicole's question seemed to have got Zama there.
Zama slapped her.
"Don't guess our relationship. You bitch!"
The slap was very hard. Nicole felt as if her cheek was about to shatter. Her body was thrown out and
she hit the wall. She then fell on the ground, near Petty.
Petty didn't have the slightest bit of strength to move.
"Why are you so stupid? Why would I trade with such a stupid woman like you? Why did you come
here? Why?" She cried when she saw Nicole being hit.
Noticing Petty's despair, Nicole was lost for words.
She spat out blood again, feeling exhausted.
"You're too weak, Nicole! But I have to admit, you are smart. Petty betrayed me because of you. I
admired you for that. If I leave you alone, you will probably be my greatest enemy. You deserve to die!"
Zama stepped on Nicole's chest.
Nicole felt there was a mountain on her chest. She couldn't breathe.
She tried to struggle, but her hands were tied. She didn't have any strength at all. She tried to breathe,
but the force on her chest became heavier.
Petty cried in despair.
Others might not have known why Petty was crying, but Nicole knew too well.
She was crying because she might die, and that she didn't see Zac before her death. She spared no
effort to be with Zac. But in the end, she failed as she placed her bet wrongly.
Hearing Petty's cry, Zama became even more complacent.
"Louder. I'll end your life when you're done crying."
She looked down at Nicole who was miserable. Memories flashed back.
"How can a woman like you match my son? Five years ago, I pitied you and let you marry his. What did
you do? You were not grateful for me. You even tried to attack me. Nicole, you gave birth to a son for
Samuel. For that reason, I will definitely take good care of you!"
"Zama, you'll get your poetic justice. Do you think you can get away with you evil deeds? If I die here,
you will be punished one day. Samuel and my son will avenge me!"
Zama laugh loudly when she heard what Nicole had said.
"You really have a long-term perspective. But the more incompetent a person is, the more they place
their hopes on others. Nicole, now that you're dying, I might as well teach you a lesson. You can't rely
on anyone. You can only count on yourself. Although Samuel still has feelings for you, will he love you
forever? Ten or twenty years after your death, he will forget about you and will not remember anything.
This is men! What else can you do besides pinning your hopes on others? If you are good at fighting,
perhaps you are able to challenge me and you still have some hope. Or if you are as smart as I am,
you will also have a chance. Unfortunately, you don't have strength or brain. I can't say you won't catch
me in a few years, but at least you're weak now! You should die! "
With that, she took out a gun and pointed at Nicole's forehead.
Nicole winced at the sight of black muzzle of the gun.
Would she die here?
Maybe.
Before coming here, she had thought of many possibilities, including death.
But she had to come here!
Laurel, Mrs. Don, and people she didn't know were all under Zama's control. If she could sacrifice her
own life to save so many people, it was worth it.
However, she still had regrets.
She wanted to spend more time with Samuel!
She wanted to travel around the world with him and watch their children grow up. She hadn't taken Zoe
to an amusement park.
She wouldn't have the chance.
Although Nicole had regrets, she was not afraid.
She looked at Zama and said, "Kill me and you'll lose your son!"
"Mother and son are connected. He will come back to me. As long as you die, I will be able to bring him
back."
"With your medical expertise? They say doctors are compassionate. You're so good at medicine, but
you are so vicious and ruthless. You shouldn't have been a doctor!"
Nicole glared at Zama hatefully.
Zama sneered.
"Who told you I'm a doctor?"
Her thoughts seemed to be drifting away as Zama recalled the past.
"My family members were all witch doctors. We lived in the village and had a carefree life until one day
someone put an end to it and destroyed our home. He claimed we were propagating feudal
superstition, and that my parents were evil people. I watched helplessly as my parents were burned to
ashes! Can you imagine how furious I was? But I couldn't make a sound. I hid away to survive and to
avenge my parents! People who burned down my home and killed my parents earned praise and
reputation, while my parents were regarded as evil witches. We didn't harm anyone. We just lived our
life. My younger brother wasn't spared and he was only four years old! Do you know how I felt then?"
Her expression suddenly became sharp.
She kicked Nicole away ferociously.
"You won't understand! My family and friends were murdered. My parents saw their son being
beheaded and then burned. It was a nightmare for me. You won't know what I've experienced to
survive."
Nicole spat out another mouthful of blood. She felt that she was dying, and all her bones were falling
apart.
She had been curious about Zama's identity and her identity. Now that Zama had told her story, Nicole
guessed boldly, "Are you from the southern border?"
"Sort of. It was just a small village. But unfortunately, my family was annihilated by those thugs. Do you
think I should take revenge?"
Zama looked at Nicole with a vicious smile.
Nicole's heart suddenly stopped beating.
"Who killed your family?"
Zama's expression became icy.
"Who? What do you think? I came to the Seapolis City and worked for the Green family. I even gave
birth to two sons for the family at the price of my innocence. Why did I do this?"
Nicole was dumbfounded.
Could it be the Greens?
No!
It was impossible!
