A sharp pain attacked Samuel and he felt like his head was about to explode.
He cried in a low voice and wanted to hold back. But this time, the neuralgia was so intense that he
staggered and fell on Nicole.
"Samuel! Samuel, what's wrong with you?"
Just now, Nicole was lost in thought about Melissa's injury. Before she fully came back to her senses,
she saw Samuel leaning against her shoulder with a painful expression.
She immediately turned to be worried.
"I'll call Blair over."
Nicole panicked.
She knew that Samuel suffered from neuralgia but she didn't expect the pain to be so intense and
unbearable.
His whole body was trembling. He held his head as if he wanted to smash his own head open.
Nicole made the call with shivering hands.
Seeing that it was Nicole calling, Blair frowned.
"Nicole, just several hundred thousand of cash, right? What's the hurry? I will bill you."
Blair teased over the phone.
However, Nicole was not in the mood to reply to his tease. She said in a crying tone "Blair, come
quickly. Samuel is suffering from neuralgia. He is about to faint."
Blair suddenly paused.
"I'll be right there."
After hanging up the phone, Nicole held Samuel tightly in her arms.
"Samuel, Blair is coming right away. You hold on."
Samuel knew that Nicole was worried about him. He wanted to tell her that he was fine but the pain this
time was so intense that he couldn't even make a sound.
Fill happened to see this when he came out.
"What's wrong with Boss?"
He quickly came to Samuel's side and frowned.
Nicole didn't know him much. But since Samuel said that he and Fill were friends, Nicole chose to
believe Fill for the time being.
"He has neuralgia. Can I send him to your villa first?"
"Why do you ask? Hurry up and send him over. Have you called the doctor?"
Fill directly took Samuel from Nicole.
Nicole hurriedly nodded and said, "I called Blair. He will be here in a while."
"Send the address to Blair. There shouldn't be any problem with him around. When does Samuel get
neuralgia? He never had such a disease before."
As Fill said, he and Nicole helped Samuel into the villa to lie down.
Samuel was in such pain that he huddled, his back was already wet with cold sweat.
"I'll go see if there are any painkillers. Let's get him to eat some first."
Nicole hesitated when hearing Fill's words.
She still couldn't completely trust Fill.
Fill did not wait for her response. He went straight to the medical kit.
One of Fill's subordinates hurriedly followed Fill into the house seeing Samuel like this.
"Fill, can Samuel still be our boss since he is in such a situation?"
"What do you mean? Do you want to die?"
Fill directly pushed the subordinate against the wall and said fiercely, "I warn you. Stop talking about
such nonsense. If you dare to say something like this again, I'll fucking kill you."
"Fill, I'm doing this for your own good. Boss has been running a business outside for so many years.
He's not the one he used to be anymore. If it weren't for you to take charge of the Sky Group for so
many years, it's hard to tell how it will be. Now it is a good opportunity. Boss has such a disease and
the woman beside him is also weak and delicate. Why don't we...? "
The subordinate gestured Fill to kill Samuel.
Fill suddenly smiled. His smile was very bright but the subordinate felt it creepy.
"Fill, I'm doing this for your own good! I..."
Before he could finish his words, Fill broke his neck.
The subordinate went soft and fell on the ground, died.
Fill directly got a sheet to cover the body. Then, he found the medical kit and approached Nicole
without even looking at the body again.
"Nicole, let Boss take some painkillers first."
"I..."
Nicole was still hesitant but Samuel directly took the painkiller and swallowed it.
The painkiller wouldn't take effect so quickly so that Samuel was still in pain. But he grabbed Fill's hand
and managed to say, "Clean up the mess about Melissa. Blair will be here soon. Don't let him find
anything."
"Alright."
Fill got up and walked out.
Nicole let Samuel lie down with his head on her lap. She looked Fill walk away and whispered,
"Samuel, don't think about anything now."
Samuel held Nicole's hand tightly. He wanted to comfort her but he didn't know what to say.
Nicole was very anxious, she couldn't help but think of Joseph's words.
Where exactly was the ancient book of the Harper Town?
Since they couldn't find it, could it be that only the people from the Harper Town could find it?
Nicole thought to herself.
She didn't know that Samuel's neuralgia was so severe at first but now it seemed that she needed to
quicken the pace of looking for the ancient book.
When Blair came, Samuel's face was already pale with pain.
He quickly diagnosed Samuel and his expression went sour.
"Did you take painkillers before I came?"
"Yes, I took one, but it doesn't seem to work."
Nicole was very worried.
Blair whispered, "It is impossible to suppress his neuralgia with painkillers now. He needs to be treated
with medical instruments. We'd better send him to the hospital now."
"Then let's go."
Nicole followed everything Blair said.
Since Samuel's disease attacked so suddenly, Fill didn't get enough time to withdraw his men. When
Blair saw them, he froze for a moment but didn't say anything.
Nicole helped Samuel into the car and quickly followed Blair to the Military Hospital.
Blair immediately sent Samuel to the treatment room for treatment.
Nicole was at a loss.
Lucas rushed over when he heard the news.
"Mommy, how is Samuel?"
"I'm not sure yet. He's already under treatment."
Nicole was somewhat relieved when seeing Lucas.
Lucas took out an ancient ring from his pocket and handed it to Nicole.
"What is this?"
"Grandma gave it to me back then. Although I don't know what it is, it might be connected to the Harper
Town. Otherwise, she wouldn't have given it to me."
Nicole froze when hearing what Lucas said.
She almost forgot about it.
"You know about your daddy's neuralgia?"
"Joseph told me during a video chat. He heard from Morgan that there is an ancient book in the Harper
Town. There might be a cure for Samuel's neuralgia in the book. Mommy, send someone reliable to find
the book. If we can find this ancient book, we might really cure Samuel. The treatment used now can
only relieve his pain, it is not a permanent cure."
Lucas quickly told everything to Nicole.
Nicole whispered, "Actually, I want to go by myself but I'm not familiar with the Harper Town. Maybe I
will go with Trevin."
"Mommy, you should stay. Samuel needs you."
Lucas did not want Nicole to go to the Harper Town.
Too many accidents happened when they went to Bordeaux last time. With Samuel like this now, Lucas
really couldn't stop being worried.
Nicole said in a low voice, "Then I'll send Trevin, but the ring..."
"Saving Samuel is the most important thing. No matter what this ring represents, it's not as important
as Samuel."
Lucas was determined. Although he seldom called Samuel Daddy, Samuel was still his beloved father.
He couldn't watch his mother sad and Samuel in pain without doing anything.
Nicole nodded.
Trevin was called over. He couldn't help but laugh when he saw Lucas.
"We meet again."
"Yes, we meet again."
Lucas put his hands in his pockets. He seemed to be a little lazy in this position but his eyes were
shining, so that nobody could ignore him.
"Mrs. Green, do you have something for me?"
Nicole gave the ring to Trevin.
"Do you recognize this?"
Trevin's expression immediately changed.
"This is the token of our patriarch. Why is it here?"
"My mother-in-law gave it to my son."
Nicole pointed at Lucas.
Trevin immediately came to pay respect to Lucas. He bowed respectfully, "The Harper Town is gone,
but with the token, you are the current patriarch of the Harper Town. Mr. Lucas, just tell me if you want
me to do anything, I will try my best even if I would die."
But Lucas did not have any special feelings. He said without many emotions, "No need for you die for
me. However, I do need your help. I heard that there is an ancient medical book in the Harper Town
that records many intractable and complicated diseases. It is said to be the most precious thing of the
Harper Town. Now, I only want this ancient book."
Trevin frowned.
"I've heard of this ancient book as well, but it could only be found with the patriarch's token. If you want
me to find this ancient book, I might need the ring, Mr. Lucas."
"Take it."
Nicole handed it to Trevin and said cautiously, "Be sure to find the ancient book. I don't want to take it
for myself. As long as Samuel's neuralgia is cured, I will return the book to the Harper Town."
"Alright, Mrs. Green, I'll set off immediately."
Trevin left with the ring.
Lucas said in a low voice, "Mommy, We'd better send someone to secretly follow him."
"You don't believe him?"
Nicole felt that her son was really amazing.
How could he be so suspicious at such a young age?
Lucas said plainly, "Just in case."
"I'll go."
As soon as Lucas finished his words, Fill walked in and looked at Nicole and Lucas. Then he
whispered, "I will secretly follow him in case he betrays. I've been working in the gray areas all these
years and this should be a piece of cake for me."
"Who are you?"
Alert flashed through Lucas' eyes.
Nicole said in a low voice, "He is your daddy's friend. You can call him Mr. Howard."
As a unique boy, Lucas did not address Fill, instead, he stared at Fill thoroughly and said, "Mommy,
Samuel should be out of danger right now. I still have things to attend to in the army so I will go back
first. If there is any news, just call me."
"Alright, I'll have Ernesto send you off."
"No need, I'll just go back myself."
Lucas turned around and left, but when he passed Fill, he whispered, "I know you, Hawk."
Fill's expression changed hearing this nickname.
He looked at Lucas meaningfully and suddenly smiled.
Fill smiled charmingly but his subordinates did not dare to look directly at him. However, Nicole didn't
notice it at all. She turned her head and looked in the direction of the treatment room with great worry.
