Sally's eyes suddenly turned cold.
She swung her kick and quickly stretched out her arm.
The opponent seemed to be very clear about her moves. The moment Sally launched an attack, he
reacted. But he was not as good as Sally.
After Sally feinted, a dagger slid down her sleeve and abruptly cut her opponent's arm. Taking
advantage of the short space that the opponent was slightly stunned, a light blade in the palm of Sally's
other hand abruptly cut his opponent's neck.
Red blood sprayed onto Sally's face, giving her pale face a new color. Coupled with her cold smile, she
looked a little scary.
The opponent slowly fell to the ground, turning into a dead body. However, he rounded his eyes with
puzzlement.
Sally coldly looked in a certain direction, where a red dot flashed.
Her smile carried a trace of indifference and determination, as well as bitterness.
The sniper could clearly see Sally's current expression through the observation mirror. Just as she was
about to pull the trigger, she suddenly saw Sally make a move. The sniper stopped, and a hint of
hesitation flashed across her cold eyes.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, Sally quickly escaped from the scene.
When the sniper tried to find Sally again, she had lost his best opportunity.
The sniper sighed and put away her sniper rifle.
A woman beside her asked in confusion, "Morgan, are you going to let her go just like that?"
Knowing that Sally disappeared, the sniper, Morgan, said coldly, "Let her go? Did you see I let her go?
You are not her match so that she managed to escape."
"But Morgan, you just..."
Before the woman could finish, Morgan sliced through her neck with the hidden saber in her hand. Her
technique was exactly the same as Sally's.
"You kill me so as to silence me. You..."
The woman still wanted to say something, but she could only cover her neck and fall down.
Morgan ignored the bloodstains on the dark saber and withdrew her sniper rifle as if no one else was
watching.
A silly little girl wasn’t qualified to teach her.
Did Morgan kill this person because she saw everything just now?
Why did Morgan pause just now?
She saw Sally's gesture.
It was a gesture that only they knew the meaning of it. It brought back too many memories. It was a
testimony of their mutual trust when they were at stake.
However, she wanted to kill Sally.
At that moment, Morgan knew that Sally had completely done with her.
Sally used this gesture to distract Morgan and gained a chance to escape. She was telling Morgan that
Morgan wasn't the only one who knew how to use their relationship.
Once a person began to use his relationship with the person who was closest to him, it meant their
relationship had come to an end.
Morgan felt that her eyes were somewhat swollen and painful. Warm liquid was about to gush out.
She suddenly looked up at the gloomy sky, feeling extremely depressed.
She finally lost her only relative, her only friend, and the only warmth in the world.
She was upset, but she didn't know how to vent her feelings.
Morgan's phone rang.
That was her personal phone. Few people know about her number.
Morgan frowned slightly. She took out her phone and saw the caller ID on it. Heartbroken, she put on a
gloomy look.
It was Joseph!
Joseph always looked at Morgan with trusting eyes. He once refused to communicate with others. He
learnt medicine from her with persistence and cared about her when she had a fever. Thinking of these,
Morgan suddenly did not know how to face her only disciple.
Her disciple?
Morgan was forced to study medicine, and there was nothing she could do about it. She even prepared
not to pass her exquisite medical skills on to others and let them rot. She had no intention of accepting
any disciples.
How could she be so soft-hearted?
Why did she accept Joseph as her disciple?
Back then, she forced Samuel to hand in a hostage in order to ensure that one day when she angered
Samuel, she would have a protective talisman. The hostage could give her a chance to live. How could
she get emotionally involved with Joseph?
The phone was still ringing, as if it would never stop if she didn't answer it. However, Morgan felt that
the phone weighed a thousand kilograms, and she couldn't even lift it.
When the ring ended, she heaved a sigh of relief, but her back was soaked in sweat.
She had been pushed into such a state by a simple phone call.
Morgan had been around. When she crawled out from the pile of dead people, she thought that she
was the reincarnation of a ghost, and that her only purpose in her lifetime was to take revenge. She
had nothing to be afraid of, but Joseph's call defeated her.
Morgan did not know if it was her luck or misfortune to meet Joseph. But it was not suitable for her to
contact Joseph now.
Hopefully, Joseph, whom she had tried her best to teach, would not resent her.
Morgan closed her eyes, but the phone rang again.
Due to Joseph's persistence, Morgan sighed and picked up the phone.
"Master, are you alright? Where are you? I heard that you were injured. Is the injury serious? Why
didn't you contact me?"
Joseph was so worried that he was about to cry. When Morgan heard his voice, her cold face suddenly
turned into a twisted one.
"I'm fine. It's just a minor injury. I can handle it by myself."
Her voice sounded a little hoarse.
Joseph hurriedly asked, "Where are you injured? Master, you are always so careless towards yourself.
You must have put on a band-aid after applying some disinfectant, right? You can't do this! This will
bring an infection, master!"
His voice was anxious, sounding like he was about to cry.
Morgan looked at the band-aid on her arm and couldn't help but smile.
Joseph did know her.
Tough as she was, she softened.
No matter what the result was, she must protect Joseph thoroughly.
This thought took root in Morgan's mind.
"Alright, I'm really fine. Take care of yourself. I have been busy recently, so I won't go over to meet you.
After I finish, I will teach you a new lesson."
"Master, will you still teach me?"
Joseph's voice was low, as if he was muttering to himself, but it suddenly made Morgan alert.
"What do you mean?"
"Master, you said that because you don't want a disciple as stupid as me, right?"
Joseph suddenly choked.
It wrung Morgan's heart.
Joseph was just a child.
Why was she so suspicious?
"No, I have been too busy lately. Be good. Wait for me to contact you later. Do more reading.
Understand?"
"Alright, master, take care."
"I know."
Joseph hung up the phone, feeling complicated.
Tears were still hanging in the corner of Joseph's eyes, but his eyes had turned cold.
"Did you find it out?"
His voice was childish, but there was a trace of coldness in it.
Lucas couldn't help but frown when he saw him like this.
"Joseph, perhaps we guessed wrongly. Perhaps your master was really injured for Sally?"
Lucas felt sorry for what Joseph was suffering.
Joseph used to be so happy and lively. Due to Riley's incident, he refused to communicate with others
for a while. But after learning medicine from Morgan, Joseph maintained a pure heart.
However, the way Joseph was now made Lucas somewhat uneasy.
Joseph was truly cold.
No one knew the importance of Morgan to Joseph better than Lucas.
Simply put, Joseph treated Morgan almost as his mother. Moreover, Morgan spared no effort to teach
him, so Joseph valued Morgan a lot.
But this morning, Joseph suddenly came to look for Lucas and asked him to locate a cell phone. Lucas
felt that something was wrong with Joseph. Realizing that the call was made to Morgan, Lucas
understood the reason.
Perhaps Joseph knew some things.
Joseph was a Green. Even though he couldn't compare to Zoe and Lucas in terms of talents, he was
quite intelligent.
Joseph looked at Lucas, the coldness remaining in his eyes. Then his childish voice sounded.
"Do you think Morgan only teaches me medical skills? Or do you think she just went out with me for
medical seminars and medical research? Last time, during the riots in Africa, we went there to give free
medical treatment. Morgan asked me to bandage some simple wounds and then disappeared. I knew
she wasn't just a doctor when I was captured by the terrorists and she didn't say anything."
Joseph closes his eyes. Blood was welling up in his throat, but he fiercely suppressed it back.
Trembling, he whispered, "She is my master. She teaches me medicine, self-defense, and even how to
use the scalpel in my hand to protect myself. How could an ordinary doctor do this? Besides, some of
her habits and movements betray her. She is such a light sleeper that she can clearly feel the changes
in others' breathing. When she is sick, her hands are tightly clenched. Her subconscious preparedness
shows that she is always on guard against being assassinated. How can she be a simple person? But I
pretend not to know it. I feel sorry for her, for she has to take on everything even though she is a
woman. How hard her life is! I even plan to work hard and learn skills so as to provide for her after she
retires. But the premise is that she can't hurt my family!"
Joseph opened his eyes, and tears rolled down the corner of his eyes.
"Joseph."
Lucas felt a little upset.
"She knows how important my family is to me, but she still wants to hurt Daddy and Mommy. Why? If
even my beloved master wants to use me, what else in this world is real? Who can I still trust?"
The coldness in Joseph's eyes shocked Lucas.
"Joseph, no. You still have us. Daddy, Mommy, Zoe and I love you sincerely!"
Lucas suddenly hugged Joseph tightly, only to find that he couldn't warm Joseph's broken heart.
What should he do?
