Morty was slightly surprised, then he smiled and said, "Sam, do you take me as your enemy?"
"Right now, I don't know who still my friend is."
Morty's expression changed.
He said seriously, "You don't need to care about what Mr. Shaw said. You and I have been through so
much. No matter what you decide, and no matter what Mr. Shaw's attitude is, I always got your back."
Samuel finally breathed a sigh of relief.
"Thank you."
"No need, bro."
Morty hung up the phone then.
Samuel was touched.
He was somewhat surprised, but he was also relieved. At least, he was not a fugitive, and the person
who got a say in this matter believed him. This was enough to let him feel assured. Otherwise, even
though he still had a sliver of a chance of winning against them, he might not be able to keep his wife
and children out of it.
Now he could finally have a rest and have fun with his wife and children.
Samuel smoked another cigarette, and then returned to the hot spring room, only to see Nicole
sleeping soundly. He was surprised and suddenly laughed out.
She was really weak.
Samuel stood up and went forward, pulled Nicole out of the hot spring, wrapped her in a bath towel,
and then carried her to the lounge.
The bed in the lounge was also renovated and built over a hot spring, and people could feel the warmth
when lying on it.
Samuel did not take off the towel for her and just lay down and fell asleep with Nicole in his arms.
In his sleep, there seemed to be a woman touching his head gently, with a smile on her face.
"Child, I hope that you will be stronger in the future. Although you have shouldered too many things,
mom believes that you will always find a way to be happy. Life is too short and mom can't give the
happiness you want. You can only fight for it by yourself. I'm sorry, son, I'm really sorry, but mom can
do nothing about it."
The woman's voice was very soft, as if she was whispering.
Samuel wanted to see her face, but it was in vain. There was always so much mist around, making
people feel uncomfortable. However, that voice was somewhat familiar, and it sounded just like Zama.
Zama?
Samuel felt slightly cold.
He suddenly opened his eyes and looked around. For a moment, he couldn't figure out where he was.
The phone beside him had already been turned into silent mode, and it was vibrating now.
Afraid of disturbing Nicole, Samuel picked it up and walked out.
"What now?"
Samuel sounded impatient, with a trace of displeasure and anger.
Fill was surprised for a moment and said, "The results of Ballard's test have come out."
Samuel frowned slightly.
To be honest, he didn't care about how Ballard died at all. After all, Tim was here to take care of it.
However, looking at the lounge behind and thinking about how much Nicole cared about him, he
couldn't help but sigh and say, "What about it?"
"There is no doubt that Ballard committed suicide by poisoning. However, the forensic doctor detected
other toxins in him, which had accumulated over the years. Even if he did not commit suicide, he would
not be able to live much longer. At that time, he would die more miserable and painful than now.
Therefore, Ballard should have known about it. So, in order to prevent Tim from finding out about that,
he committed suicide."
Samuel frowned.
"How long has he been poisoned?"
"More than twenty years. The forensic doctor said that it was twenty-seven years, to be exact."
Samuel was surprised.
"How old is Tim this year?"
"Twenty-seven years old."
Clearly, Fill also thought of this.
Samuel put up a charming smile and said lazily, "So Ballard has been poisoned since Tim was given
birth?"
"Probably. So the poisoner wasn't Bella. It was Martha."
Samuel smiled coldly.
"What a ruthless woman! Even though she didn't love Ballard at all, and even though she was just
using Ballard, how could she do it now that they have married and raised a child together? Ballard
probably has known about this the year after Tim was born. Or perhaps Martha didn't hide it from him
at all, and that's why Ballard would cheat on her with Bella."
Samuel said slowly, and his expression became colder and colder.
Why would such a woman live in the world?
Now that she didn't want to fall in love, even if she didn't really want to have a child, how could she give
birth to a child so easily?
Did she even know how to be a mother?
Somehow, Samuel was outraged.
In the past, he always disliked Tim because Tim had been coveting his wife. But considering that
neither of them was born because of love, he couldn't help but feel sympathetic for Tim.
None of their birth was expected, and they had grown up in traps and tricks. It was just so pathetic.
"Has Tim undergone a physical examination?"
Fill was stunned for a moment, obviously he didn't think of that.
"Aren't we investigating the cause of Ballard's death? What does Tim have to do about this?"
However, Samuel said coldly, "Why did Martha choose Ballard as a cover? Because Ballard was the
best suitor to control, and because he loved Martha the most. But as she had poisoned Ballard, who
knew whether this crazy woman would harm her own son or not? After all, she has been using Tim for
so many years, right? "
"No, no way. No matter what, Martha is Tim's mother. She might poison Ballard for some reason, but
poisoning her own son? It is just unbelievable."
Hearing this, Samuel smiled coldly.
"Given her craziness, that's possible. For the sake of her father's great career, she might even be
willing to die. This woman is a nut. Mr. Shaw and Audrey have been so nice to her, but she didn't
appreciate it at all. And maybe even to Mrs. Shaw, she only harbors grudges. She would only think
about her father anyway."
Samuel suddenly paused.
"Fill, get someone to find out how Mrs. Shaw died back then? And I need to see her medical record."
"What are you suspecting? No matter how disgusting Martha is, I don't think she will kill her mother."
"I don't have faith in her as you do."
Fill was surprised before he said, "Alright, I will let Tim go for a medical examination. I will also
investigate Mrs. Shaw's matter. Well, if you are free these days, you can just stay here. It seems that
Chief Zack has settled down here."
"Well, I see."
Samuel hung up the phone and shook his head.
Chief Zack, who always liked to stand up for everything and always strived for credits, was truly tragic.
Samuel put his phone aside and felt a little hungry.
He put the bathrobe on, and then walked out.
Zoe and Lucas got tired and had already gone to the rest area to have a nap.
When Samuel went over, he saw Lucas and Joseph were sleeping soundly with Zoe in between them.
The children all had happy smiles on their faces. At this moment, they were just a group of five-year-old
children.
Samuel went to the food area.
"Mr. Green, can I help you?"
The waiter hurriedly walked over.
"What do you have?"
Samuel looked at the food and said to the waiter, "Make some millet porridge."
"Alright."
Millet porridge was good for stomach.
Nicole was not so well, so this was for her.
After the millet porridge was ready, Samuel took the food to the lounge.
Nicole was still asleep.
Her skin was pale red because of the hot spring, and her pink face looked very beautiful.
'Gosh! She was so beautiful like a blooming flower!' Samuel thought to himself.
He walked over, put the food aside, bent down, and directly kissed Nicole.
The suffocating feeling woke Nicole up. When she saw Samuel's face so close to her, she was
stunned, and then she began to struggle.
"Samuel, I'm so tired! Would you please leave me alone? I don't want to do it now!"
Nicole cried and begged.
Samuel was just like a slutty beast, and she could barely withstand it.
Seeing Nicole's resentful gaze, Samuel suddenly laughed out.
"What are you thinking? I'm just asking you to get up for dinner."
Then Nicole saw the food and her stomach immediately started to growl, which made her somewhat
embarrassed.
"Why were you kissing me?"
Nicole's voice was not loud, but it was clear to Samuel.
He touched Nicole's hair and smiled, "I tried to wake you up. But you were sleeping soundly, so I had to
use this method."
But Nicole did not buy it.
"If it weren't for you, would I be so tired? We agreed that we came here to travel, but you only wanted
to do that and ignored my feeling. Samuel, you are so selfish."
Nicole complained wrongly. She pouted her lips, and that just made Samuel want to kiss her again.
Samuel thought of this and just did it. The kiss was so hot and made Nicole's breath speed up again.
She didn't even have the strength to resist and finally she just became obedient in Samuel's arms.
However, Samuel cared about Nicole anyway. After all, she was really tired.
"Let's have dinner. Then let's take the children out for fun."
"Are there any other interesting places?"
Nicole was somewhat curious.
"Hurry up."
Samuel didn't answer her this time.
Only then did they begin to eat.
Nicole never knew that she could eat so much before. After eating a lot of food, she was stopped by
Samuel when she wanted to eat a piece of cake.
"What?"
Nicole was upset.
However, Samuel smiled and said, "Gluttony is not good for your health. Stop eating."
Nicole frowned and said, "You got sex last night and have had enough, but I am not allowed to eat to
replenish my strength? You're so mean."
Samuel was speechless by her face.
Why had he become such a bastard to her now?
Nicole frowned and said, "You got sex last night and have had enough, but | am not allowed to eat to
replenish my strength? You're so mean."
Samuel was speechless by her face.
Why had he become such a bastard to her now?
