Nicole finally heard what Tim said. She was desperate to wake up. But she felt as if she were under the
weight of a mountain. No matter how hard she tried, she could not break free, and her eyes were
heavy.
Nicole could feel Tim's sorrow, but she had no choice.
There really is a first-mover advantage. She had given her heart to Samuel. Even if Tim treated her so
well, she would not be touched.
Nicole also did not think she would be moved by what Tim had just said.
Her presence would only cause Tim great pain. It would be better not to see each other. Perhaps it was
also a kind of relief for Tim.
Nicole comforted herself, but she felt sad, as if she had lost a relative.
Tim saw Gabrielle walking over and said indifferently, "No matter what, you must protect her."
"I will!"
Seeing that Gabrielle had agreed, Tim then left.
After leaving the military compound, Tim went straight back to the old mansion of the Louis family.
When Ballard saw Tim, he roared angrily, "Do you even care about this family? If I'd known you were
such a jerk, I won't even let you be born!"
"Too bad you didn't, so you're just gonna have to put up with it."
Ballard was irritated by the slovenly attitude of Tim.
"Why did I have such a wicked son!"
"How would I know? I'm not the one who slept with my mother."
"You!"
Ballard was about to hit Tim, but Tim grabbed his wrist.
"I said that you're old. You know you can't beat me, so why bother? You can hit me because I let you,
you think I'm really afraid of you?"
Tim's words were bitter but not hostile.
"Old man, I know what you're thinking, don't you just want to acknowledge Jacob? Let me tell you, as
long as I, Tim, am alive, I will not allow him to enter our family as a descendant! No matter what, my
mother and I are the rightful owners of the Louis Family. Your lover has lived here for so many years.
You should be grateful for my kindness. My way or the highway, it's your choice."
Tim pushed Ballard away and said coldly, "I'm going out for a few days. You'd better take good care of
my mother, otherwise I don't mind selling the entire family. You know me, I've never given a shit about
the family's property. If it weren't for my mother's attachment, do you think this family would still exist in
the Seapolis City?"
"You!"
Ballard was steam mad, but he also knew that Tim really dared to do so.
Tim ignored him and directly entered the room. He took some things and went to the dungeon.
Seeing Tim arrive, Swift was a little frightened, but she forced herself to pretend to be calm.
"What do you want? Tim, kill me. Otherwise, if I go out one day, I won't let you off."
"Really? Then you should go die. Only if you die will Nicole not be threatened."
Swift's face was ghostly pale with fright.
"You dare to kill me? I have many things that you want to know. You won't kill me! You won't!"
"You're wrong. We can investigate all the things. It might be a bit difficult or even impossible to find out
what you hide, but compared to your threat to Nicole, those things are really not worth mentioning."
Tim slowly walked towards Swift.
Swift screamed in fright and felt that he was like a ghost crawling out of hell.
"Tim, don't kill me! I'll tell you everything! Don't kill me!"
"Tell me now."
Tim stopped.
Swift looked at him and panted, "Killing people is against the law. Even if you are Tim Louis, you will
not be able to escape. As long as you let me go, not only will I tell you everything you want to know, I
will also leave the country and never return. What do you say? Tim, after all, Nicole belongs to Samuel.
She won't appreciate you killing me for her."
"What I want is never her appreciation. As long as I can protect her, so what if I become a murderer?
Now that Samuel is beside her, I just need to remove the obstacles and threats for her and let her live
happily."
After saying that, Tim walked towards Swift again.
Swift panicked because she saw killing in Tim's eyes.
He really wanted to kill her!
"Tim, are you worthy of becoming a murderer for a woman?"
"It's not your turn to ask if it's worth it."
After Tim finished speaking, he raised the saber and snapped Swift's neck.
Swift's eyes widened in disbelief, but she could no longer say anything.
She never thought that Tim would actually dare to kill her.
Seeing her die, Tim said coldly, "I didn't kill you before because I have to find some clues for Nicole.
Since you don't want to say anything, then there's no need to say. I don't know how dangerous it is to
find Samuel this time. I can't guarantee that I will be able to return safely, so I have to get rid of these
threats, including you."
With that, he turned around and left, leaving Swift's corpse to slowly rot in the dungeon, turning into a
pile of bones.
When Tim walked out, he happened to meet Ballard.
"Who exactly is in your dungeon?"
"If you want me to die, or if you want the Louis family to be removed from the city, you can open it and
expose it."
Tim then left.
Ballard was still curious. He opened the dungeon and saw Swift. He then was paralyzed with fear.
"Tim! Are you trying to scare me to death?"
Ballard's entire body trembled, but he quickly calmed down.
No one should know about this.
He quickly closed the dungeon and even put two locks on it.
After all, Tim was his son.
Tim, however, did not care what Ballard did. He got into the car and went to find Samuel along the
route Nicole had mentioned.
Along the way, Samuel left behind many traces. If Nicole knew about this, Tim was sure that she would
not stay in the Green family, much less lie on the hospital bed.
It had to be said that Samuel's enemies were really ruthless. Accidents and assassinations were
endless along the way. If it was an ordinary person, they would have died long ago. Fortunately, it was
Samuel.
When Tim drove to the town where Samuel had disappeared, he felt that there was nothing strange
about this place.
He went to a small hotel and booked a room.
Tim asked the landlady, "Did anything special happen here a few days ago?"
"Something special? What do you mean?"
The lady was a middle-aged woman. Seeing that Tim was handsome, she softened her voice a lot.
Tim used to be a womanizer. How could he not understand her? However, he really wasn't in the mood
for it.
"If you tell me something, maybe I can consider giving you something back."
As Tim spoke, he took out a stack of money.
When the lady saw the money, her eyes went straight. She immediately smiled and said, "It is an area
outside the jurisdiction. The place was peaceful on the surface, but there was much else going on."
"What?"
"For example, trafficking in human beings and drug abuse."
The lady's words made Tim frown.
Samuel came here to track down the abducted child. He probably thought it was Lucas. When the lady
said about trafficking in human beings, Tim's eyes flashed slightly.
"Trafficking in human beings? Where would they sell their children?"
Hearing Tim's pertinent question, the lady hurriedly said, "We have an underground city here. It only
opens at night. Children who are trafficked are distributed according to their beauty. Those with better
looks would be auctioned off as playthings and bought back as toys by some wealthy people. Those
with bad looks will be sent out by contacting people from remote mountainous areas who are unable to
marry wives."
"You guys are really completely out of control!"
Tim had seen many things, so he did not have a big reaction, but he hated it deeply.
Human traffickers were the most hateful people in the world. No punishment is enough to punish them.
However, they could not be sentenced to death.
Because Tim said casually, the lady could not see what he meant. She said somewhat uneasily, "Are
you from the police?"
"I'm not that idle. I just want to go in and take a look. Can anyone enter the Dungeon?"
"No. If everyone could enter, it wouldn't exist."
The lady hurriedly said.
Tim handed her the money and said indifferently, "Tell me how to get in, or introduce me to get in, and
I'll give you another twenty thousand."
"Twenty thousand? Really?"
When the lady heard this, her eyes shone with greed again.
Tim didn't want to talk nonsense with her, so he directly took out another twenty thousand and threw it
on the counter.
"Take care of my business. The money is all yours."
"No problem. Rest first. I'll take you to the person in charge here tonight. Only he can give you a pass
card for the Dungeon."
Tim turned around and walked upstairs.
"No one can disturb me before I meet that person tonight. Understand?"
"Got it. Do I need to bring you hot water?"
"No need!"
Tim knew that the lady was attracted to him. He could not be sure that she would do anything out of
line with him. He really wasn't interested in such an old woman now.
The lady took the money and listened to Tim.
When night fell, the lady knocked on Tim's door and said that the person with pass card had come.
Tim dressed neatly and followed her. However, when Tim saw the person, he was completely stunned.
How could it be him?
