"Sure, it's the best for you. Come and hang out at SZ Club the day after tomorrow. You haven't
introduced Nicole to us. Claire suggests that all of us should hang out some time."
Samuel agreed.
"Alright."
After hanging up the phone, he remembered that Nicole had personally visited Claire for Zoe.
Five years ago, he didn't introduce Nicole to his other brothers because he wasn't sure about his
feelings for her. Now that they had experienced so much together, it was time to introduce Nicole to
them.
Samuel put his phone aside and took a shower before returning to bed.
Thinking that he couldn't make out for half a month after tomorrow's operation, Samuel kissed Nicole
again.
Nicole felt a little uncomfortable lying on her stomach. She wanted to change her posture, but Samuel's
sudden kiss stopped her.
Nicole couldn't move.
Nicole pushed him, but she couldn't stop Samuel.
A new round started once again.
It was not until four in the morning that Samuel finished his business.
Nicole felt that all the bones were about to fall apart.
She looked at Samuel resentfully and said, "What happened to you today? You're crazy."
"I haven't seen you for so many days. I miss you."
Samuel felt a little guilty, but he didn't regret it.
Nicole looked at him resentfully, then directly raised her foot and kicked him.
"I'm so tired. I want to sleep. If Zoe woke up, you made breakfast for her. And the thing about Jaylen
and Dominic..."
"I'm on it. I'll take care of everything. You just need to rest. Also, where do you want to go for our
vacation?"
Samuel remembered very clearly that when Nicole visited him in prison, she had said that she wanted
to go on a vacation with him after everything was settled.
Nicole was about to fall asleep. When she heard Samuel say this, she subconsciously said, "I don't
care about our destination. I just want to be with you."
Samuel showed a faint smile.
"Then let's go to Country F."
"Whatever, I want to sleep."
Nicole turned her head to the side and fell asleep.
Samuel looked at her with affection.
If she was too tired to get up tomorrow, how could he do the surgery?
He shook his head, lifted the blanket and then went to the bathroom to get a basin of hot water. After
wiping Nicole's body with a hot tower, he put on a clean set of pajamas for her before taking a shower,
and then went to the study.
When he returned, he heard about what happened to Zoe. He thought that Nicole handled it very well.
The rest could be handled by government authorities.
However, Samuel still decided to visit Edwin.
After all, Dominic and Audrey had a short marriage, and they had a daughter, Viola.
Regardless of whether Edwin admitted it or not, Viola was Audrey's daughter. If he wanted to send
Dominic to prison, he naturally needed Edwin's approval.
Samuel got dressed and drove to the hospital while Nicole was sleeping.
After visiting Harper, Olivia fell asleep beside Jacob's bed.
When Samuel went in the room, he hurriedly covered his nose for there was a strange smell in the
room.
"How long have you been planning to use this kind of sleeping incense for Olivia? Aren't you afraid that
it would be bad for her health?"
Samuel said in a serious tone.
Jacob, who was originally lying on the bed, sat up when he heard Samuel's words. His heart was
aching for Olivia.
"I didn't expect her to come back suddenly. When Mrs. Green took her to City B, I didn't expect her to
come back for a long time."
Jacob lifted the blanket and got off the bed. He picked Olivia up, put her on the bed and covered her
with the blanket. He even adjusted the temperature in the ward. Then he said to Samuel, "Let's go out
and talk."
"Alright."
Samuel turned around and left the room.
The two of them went to the rooftop.
Samuel gave Jacob a cigarette.
Jacob lit it up, took a deep breath, and instantly coughed violently.
"You quit smoking?"
"No, but I haven't been smoking much lately."
After getting used to it, Jacob took another sip. He took out a USB drive from his pocket and handed it
to Samuel.
"It's the evidence of Major breaking the law, including money laundering records from his company and
hiring a killer to commit a crime outside the country. In addition, I secretly worked in Major's company
and found some officials worked with Major. There are also people from the Military Ministry. Here is
the list."
Samuel was not surprised by Jacob's words.
Major said that he had ditched all evidence after Elvis was arrested. That's why he could get away with
it. But there must have some evidence left. However, the police did not find anything on Major, which
made Samuel alert.
That was why he wanted to find an opportunity to have someone work in Major's company to
investigate it.
It was extremely dangerous. The person needed to be strong and smart. Jacob was perfect for this job.
Samuel had second thoughts at that time. After all, Jacob was Olivia's boyfriend, but Jacob volunteered
to do this job. Samuel could not refuse his offer.
After all, Jacob was an army man.
Back then, in order to protect the design blueprint, Samuel and Jacob changed professions at the same
time. In fact, his file as an army man was still there.
Looking at the USB drive in his hand, Samuel whispered, "Do you want to go back to the army?"
Jacob suddenly paused.
"Commander, you want to go back?"
Jacob's address to Samuel changed immediately.
Samuel looked at Jacob who still wanted to go back to the army.
He whispered, "You don't have to consider my feeling. Think about it yourself. If you want to go back,
this USB drive is the best chance for you to go back. I will tell Emory to let you take my place and
directly upgrade from captain to major."
Jacob could tell that Samuel was serious.
He smiled and said, "I'll follow you. I'll go wherever you go. I was like your sibling from the beginning.
Without you, it would be meaningless for me to stay in the army alone."
"Don't make a decision so quickly. Think about it. After all, it's not easy to get to become a major.
Besides, you're not married yet. You can discuss with Olivia about it and then give me an answer."
Samuel patted Jacob on the shoulder and whispered, "Melissa will arrive in the Seapolis City in two
hours. I need to take care these things. Shouldn't you wake up from your coma?"
"Yes, I will."
Jacob nodded.
The two of them looked at the sky outside and couldn't help but laugh. "Darkness is leaving, dawn is
approaching. The Seapolis City is finally going to be safe."
However, Samuel whispered, "I don't think so. The Seapolis City is safe for now. We don't know how
long it will take for the city to be dangerous again. After all, this is human nature. Sometimes I really
miss the life in the army. It's so pure, and perhaps only that kind of life is suitable for us."
"But now you probably won't be willing to leave even if it's dangerous because of your wife, right?"
Jacob's words caused Samuel to reveal a faint smile.
"We are the same."
The two of them looked at each other and smiled.
"Let's go back. It's almost dawn. Quickly extinguish the sleeping incense. Open the window and fresh
the air. Olivia will wake up later. Think about how to confess so that she won't scold you too harsh."
"Mr. Green, why do I feel like you're gloating?"
Jacob was a little depressed.
Samuel smiled and didn't say anything. He patted Jacob's shoulder and left.
Instead of returning home, he went straight to the military base.
When Emory received the call, he hadn't woken up yet.
Emory put on a coat and came out.
Samuel stood outside the military base and looked at the familiar place with mixed feelings.
If it weren't for Nicole, he would go back to army with no hesitation. However, he couldn't leave his wife
and children behind.
He indeed had some regrets.
However, there were too many regretful things in this world, and none of them could compare to the
happiness of staying around Nicole.
When Emory came out, he saw Samuel in tribute to the national emblem.
That was the highest respect a soldier had for his country.
"You want to come back?"
Emory asked him.
Only then did Samuel turn around and tidy up his clothes. He stood straight and gave a standard
military salute to Emory.
"Commander, I'm here to give you this."
"What is it?"
Emory gave him a military salute and took the USB drive from his hand.
"This is the evidence and personnel list that Jacob found from Major's company at the risk of his life.
Whether Jacob returns or not, I will still seek credit for him."
Samuel's words instantly made Emory discover the truth.
"So, the accident was fake?"
"It's not a fake accident. Major really let Parker find someone to hit him. However, he naturally dodged
it with his skill. He just got a small scratch."
Samuel explained it to Emory.
Emory asked in a low voice, "Then what happened to the driver of his girlfriend's neighbor?"
"Parker asked someone to buy him off. After the accident, he was scared. Jacob found and protected
him ever since. In order to keep it a secret, he didn't mention it to anyone including his wife and
children. Now, if the evidence inside the USB drive is useful, Jacob could let him go home. He is
cooperating with the military."
Samuel explained the whole thing.
"So I didn't know that the person who hit him was Parker. I thought it was Major, so I planned to find out
the truth. I didn't expect that so many people were involved. Some of them are even authorities in the
army."
No matter when, there would always be people who took bribes to protect the criminals. This was also
a secret operation launched by the military to eliminate the scums in the army.
Samuel and Jacob had military ranks. Originally, they had changed professions to secretly work for the
military, so this matter was naturally for Samuel and Jacob to handle.
Now that the operation was over, and Samuel had returned to hand over the evidence. People from the
military would deal with the following matters.
As long as the people involved were under investigation, he had plenty of ways to deal with Major.
Emory felt that the USB drive in his hand was important.
"You and Jacob left the army and have suffered for so many years because of those criminals. Now, I
don't know if you are willing to return."
"Boss, I..."
"Let's not talk about it yet. Go back and think about it. I won't listen to your answer now. Go home and
have some rest. We'll get together the day after tomorrow."
"Alright."
Samuel did not refuse. He drove back to the Green's after saying goodbye to Emory.
Nicole was still asleep, and Zoe was doing great.
Samuel suddenly realized that this moment was really peaceful.
He was willing to trade everything for this moment.
