Vincent didn't care about the honor or disgrace of the Green family, nor did he care about Samuel's
safety. He just wanted the person who injured him before?
Who was that person?
How could Vincent not care about Samuel's safety?
Did he hate Samuel so much?
Nicole looked at Vincent. But Vincent did not explain anything. There were too many emotions hidden
in his eyes, making her unable to tell what he was feeling now.
Vincent looked away from her eyes and continued, "That person has disappeared since that operation.
Neither the military nor I can find any information about him. Maybe only you guys can find him. I've
been looking for him for five years, but fail. So, tell your superior to bring that person to Dungeon in one
day. Then, I will naturally exchange Nicole for him. However, if you don't come in one day, I will kill
Nicole and ruin your plan."
"Wait for a moment. I will contact the superior right now. You are not allowed to act rashly. Vincent, you
must keep Nicole safe. Now I want to hear her voice."
Hearing Kemp say this, Vincent was generous to give Nicole the phone.
"I'm fine."
Nicole only said three words before Vincent snatched the phone back.
"You hear? She's fine. Don't try to find me. Since I can lure Samuel over, I am also capable enough to
hide for a day. Kemp, don't provoke me. You know, I can do anything. I don't care about Samuel's
safety even if he is my brother. Do you think I will care about the life and death of an outsider? Nicole is
useless to me. But I think you know better than me how important she is to you."
"Vincent, you are so ruthless. You really prove yourself to be Samuel's younger brother! You wait!"
Kemp hung up the phone in anger and quickly contacted his superior.
Nicole looked at Vincent and finally asked, "Why?"
"What do you mean?"
"Why did you do this? Do you really hate your brother so much?"
Nicole looked at the familiar face and suddenly felt sad for Samuel.
"For the past five years, Samuel has been haunted by guilt. He always regrets that he shouldn't have
let you leave the Seapolis City and take part in that operation. He has thought you're dead. He has
been like a dead-alive person for the past five years. Do you know? You're still complaining about him?
You even don't care about his safety? You guys are brothers who have the same mother!"
"Brother? If we are brothers, why didn't he stop me when I left the Seapolis City? If we are brothers,
during the operation in Bordeaux, he clearly knew that I was in danger. Why didn't he come to save me
immediately? You keep saying that he has been haunted by guilt for the past five years. Where have
you been for the past five years? Are you by his side? You believe everything he says? Nicole, only
women like you will believe him."
Vincent said coldly, his eyes filled with anger and grievances.
Nicole took a deep breath and said, "Yes, I was not by his side for the past five years. But I believe
what he says. For the sake of you, he could even take the blame and bring Riley into the Green family.
Do you really think he loves Riley? If so, you were dead at that time and Riley had been in the Green
family for five years, why hadn't anything happened between them? Samuel is just taking care of your
wife and child for you! He even wanted to send me away five years ago for your wife and child when he
found out that I was pregnant. Because he was afraid that I would get into conflict with Riley. In his
heart, as his brother, you are more important than anyone else. How can you do this to him now?"
When Nicole thought of what Samuel had suffered, she felt distressed.
"We've been married for three years and haven't had any children. Do you know how much he wanted
to have a child? When he found out that I was pregnant, do you know how he was feeling? I didn't
understand at that time. I also thought that he liked Riley and Riley was pregnant with his child. He
didn't even explain it to me. He did so much for you and even gave his shares in the Green family to
Joseph. Do you really think he's just feeling guilty?"
Vincent turned around and didn't look at Nicole. He whispered, "So what if he really treated Vincent
well? It's too late."
"What do you mean? Why did you say that he treated Vincent well? Aren't you Vincent?"
Nicole keenly perceived the loopholes in Vincent's words and hastily asked. But she felt a little nervous
inside.
Vincent turned around and looked at Nicole for a long time. When Nicole thought that he wouldn't say
anything, he pointed to his face and said, "My face is the same as yours. Just like Adela, she was
originally like this. But you had plastic surgery and had the same face as her. So am I. Can't you see
that?"
Nicole was astonished.
"What are you talking about?"
"Take a good look at my face, which is the same as your husband's. Then tell me, what do you see?"
Vincent took the initiative to approach Nicole.
His face was still the same as Samuel's. But under Nicole's attentive gaze, she suddenly found some
traces of plastic surgery on Vincent's face.
"Have you had plastic surgery?"
"That's right! However, the doctor was so skilled that no one can tell."
Hearing Vincent's words, Nicole paused. She subconsciously took a step back and pointed at Vincent
and asked, "You are not Vincent. Then who are you?"
"Who am I? In the past five years, I have almost forgotten who I am. I had also thought I was Vincent. I
hope that Vincent is still alive more than anyone else."
When he said this, his eyes were moist with tears. Nicole was deeply affected by his sorrow.
"Vincent is dead?"
"Yes. He died five years ago. Do you really think that the assassination operation against Vincent would
leave any survivors? He was dead five years ago. I saw him lying in my arms, saying his last words
word by word. He told me to tell Samuel that he had never hated Samuel. He was proud to have such a
brother in his life. He said that he had finally done something more honorable than what Samuel had
done, and finally won against Samuel once."
As he spoke, he cried. Scalding tears poured down his face.
Nicole was shocked and surprised.
"Since Vincent had said that he didn't hate Samuel, then why...?"
"I feel aggrieved for him! Samuel had a chance to save Vincent first. But he didn't. He would rather
save someone first than bring Vincent out. When Vincent died, he was so close to Vincent that he could
touch Vincent as long as he reached out. However, at such a close distance, he still couldn't save
Vincent.
"No way! Samuel has always loved Vincent. It was impossible for him not to save Vincent, unless
someone else needs Samuel more earnestly."
Nicole's words angered him.
"Yes. There was a very important person who needed Samuel to save. But why did he show off? There
were so many people here. Did he have to stand out? Vincent trusted and worshiped him so much.
Why didn't he save Vincent first?"
He grabbed Nicole by the collar and made no attempt to disguise his anger.
Nicole could not answer his question.
She was not Samuel. But she knew that Samuel must have his own considerations back then. Perhaps
he did not expect that Samuel would not be able to dodge.
"Vincent was a soldier and very skilled. There was no way he couldn't protect himself. I think that is
what Samuel was thinking at that time."
Nicole's words froze him for a moment. Then, he gnashed his teeth in hatred and said, "Yes, Vincent
was skilled enough to protect himself. But there were too many villains. Someone, who was a man he
once trusted most, stabbed him in the back."
As he spoke, he released Nicole.
Only then did Nicole understand why he disguised himself as Vincent.
He used Vincent's identity to enter Night Elf Empire of the Green family and used the organization's
strength to look for this person. Unfortunately, there was no result for five years. He had no choice but
to return to the Seapolis City and use Samuel to force the person to show up.
From his words for Vincent, Nicole could tell that this person must be Vincent's best brother, or
comrade.
"Who on earth are you?"
Nicole's words silenced him for a while. Then, he whispered, "My name is Bruce Smith. I was a very
ordinary soldier. However, when he accepted the confidential mission, Vincent chose me. We had lived
in Bordeaux for five years, eating in one pot and sleeping under one tent. He took care of me like my
own brother. He didn't dislike my stupidity and taught me everything. I almost died in the Golden
Triangle during an operation. It was Vincent who crossed the area outside the jurisdiction in Golden
Triangle and brought me back from the dead people. But he almost died. At that time, I swore that he
was my own brother. Whatever happened to him, I would be with him. However, he died in front of me.
His blood was so warm, and his eyes were still so familiar and clear. However, I would never see him
again. Do you know? I'm really glad I have a face which is the same as his now. Every morning when I
look in the mirror, I seem to see him smiling at me. In the past five years, if it weren't for this face, I'm
afraid I wouldn't be able to survive a day."
Bruce touched his face and laughed crazily.
Nicole couldn't understand this feeling. But she suddenly didn't know what to say.
"Who stabbed Vincent from behind?"
"A person who used to be Vincent's best friend. He was a scum of the army. Everyone thought that he
had died in the Bordeaux's operation. The country even gave him honor and he enjoyed the title of
martyr like Vincent. But I know that he is still alive well now! He is protected. He used to be the superior
of Vincent. Other than him, no one knew the real identity of Vincent. He was the one who gave away
Vincent's identity. He was even the one who stabbed Vincent when Vincent went to report the success
of the operation to him! Shouldn't this person be sliced into pieces?"
Hearing Bruce's words, Nicole nodded subconsciously. But what Bruce said next surprised her.
