Seeing the light in Nicole's eyes, Samuel didn't feel sad anymore.
What he wanted was actually very simple. He just wanted to live an ordinary life with his beloved.
"We go wherever you want!"
Zoe got goose bumps all over behind them.
"Joseph, I don't think we should be here."
Joseph coughed.
Joseph hurriedly lowered his head. But he felt good, with a faint smile on his face.
Nicole was teased by her daughter and was a little shy.
She gave Samuel a gentle push and said, "Can't you just be serious?"
"I say exactly what I think."
...
Zoe pretended to retch, making Samuel squint at her.
"Are you feeling sick?"
Zoe replied immediately, "Yes. I might be a little carsick. Joseph and I should go to the car behind us.
By the way, Mommy, I want to go to Médoc. You promised me!"
After saying that, she ignored Nicole and Samuel, and got off the car with Joseph. Then, she naughtily
turned around and stuck out her tongue at Samuel with a grimace.
Joseph chuckled.
Only Zoe dared to treat Samuel like this.
The two quickly went to the car behind.
"Look at you," Nicole said sullenly. "What are you saying in front of the children?"
"It's time for them to grow up. They should be smart enough to leave when Daddy and Mommy are
together. They really need some training."
Samuel's shameless words left Nicole speechless.
"Stop messing around. Hurry up. Didn't you hear your daughter say that she wants to go to Médoc?"
"She just wants to eat something delicious! There are so many fresh fruits on the way to Médoc in this
season."
Samuel knew his daughter too well.
When Nicole thought of Zoe as a foodie, she laughed and said, "I think she is cuter when she eats."
"As long as you feel good about it. That girl also likes to be a foodie."
Samuel couldn't help but laugh when she thought of Zoe as a foodie.
The car started. Samuel worried that Nicole would be tired, so he directly put her seat flat.
"Lie down for a while. There's still a long way to go."
"Is it OK for us to leave the Harper Town now?"
Nicole felt that Samuel had come to the Harper Town to do something. Today they came to visit
Vincent's grave. But he decided to go directly to Médoc just because Zoe wanted to. Wasn't it a bit of a
joke?
However, Samuel smiled and said, "We came here just for fun. Now that Zoe wants to go to Médoc,
let's just go on a journey without a plan. Besides, we were attacked as soon as we arrived at the
Harper Town, and no one knows what else will happen after. Then why should we stay here waiting for
them to attack us again? Why don't we step out of norm and do whatever we want? Maybe we can find
a chance to hit back?"
Nicole immediately understood.
Samuel was so smart that no one knew exactly what he was thinking. Fortunately, Nicole was used to it
and she couldn't trust him more.
"Well, you're always right."
"No, you're always right."
Samuel leaned towards her.
The driver in front lifted the baffle up wisely.
Nicole blushed at once.
"Can you just be a bit serious? The driver is here."
"Darling, I'm very serious. I just want to hug you and lie down for a while, nothing else."
Seeing Nicole being so shy, Samuel couldn't help but laugh.
"Stop laughing."
Nicole felt that she was always lame in front of Samuel.
Samuel laughed.
Samuel didn't stop. Instead, he laughed even louder.
Nicole had no choice but to grab his neck and stop him with a kiss.
Samuel was brought up short by the gentle kiss. He felt surprised and pleased.
His wife leaned to take the initiative now.
That was nice!
He put his arms around Nicole's waist and kissed back affectionately.
After Zoe and Joseph got into the car behind, she suddenly grabbed Joseph's arm and smiled
cunningly.
"Joseph, who's that man?"
Joseph was slightly surprised. Subconsciously, he said, "Daddy has already said. He was cleaning..."
"Joseph, don't fool me with Daddy's tricks on Mommy. Mommy definitely knows that. She just pretends
to be foolish in front of Daddy. I don't want to do so. That man is quite handsome, and he looks a bit
like Daddy. Who is he?"
Joseph never knew that Zoe would be so clever. Hearing her words, he had no idea what to say.
"Zoe, I..."
"Joseph, you don't love me anymore."
Zoe pouted immediately. Her watery eyes almost broke his heart.
Joseph felt hopeless.
"Zoe, don't cry. I'll tell you, all right?"
"Joseph, you are the best!"
Zoe smiled through tears. She hugged Joseph and kissed him on the cheek.
Joseph blushed at once.
"You, you, you..."
"What?"
Joseph paused because of Zoe's naughty tone.
How familiar this scene was!
Not long ago, Jarrod seemed to have been scolded by Daddy like this, right?
Only at this moment did Joseph start to understand Jarrod.
Even if he might be scolded, he would still dote on the people he cared about.
He suddenly understood Jarrod.
"Joseph, what are you thinking about?"
Seeing that Joseph was distracted, Zoe waved her hand in front of him.
Joseph came to himself.
"Nothing important. You want to know who the man is?"
"Yes. Tell me now."
Zoe was curious.
Joseph smiled and patted on her head, "He is Jarrod Austin. We should call him Uncle Jarrod."
"Jarrod Austin?"
Zoe was surprised.
"He's different from what I thought about. I thought he should be a cold person who treats us
indifferently. But he was teased by Daddy like you did to me. Well, I'm disappointed."
Zoe shook her head with pity.
Joseph paused.
Zoe always had her own understandings and different thoughts.
Didn't she care about Jarrod's relationship with them?
"Zoe, do you know Jarrod?"
"Yes. Lucas investigated him a long time ago. I peeked at the information a few times, and he didn't
stop me. It was said that he had participated in foreign army examinations and had always been
outstanding in foreign troops. He was even sent to Germany to participate in an individual competition.
However, for some reason, he abstained in the end and applied for retirement. No one knows why.
Later, he started his own killer organization composed of mercenaries. They were all survivors from
wars. It is said that his organization has never failed a mission and is well known in the world."
When Zoe said this, Joseph paused.
He looked at her and felt that she had changed, but he didn't want to believe it.
He wished that she could always be a foodie who cared about nothing but food.
He and Lucas could support the Green family. If possible, Joseph hoped that Zoe could live an ordinary
life.
All these killings and conspiracies should be away from her.
But Joseph thought about Nicole's words again.
"No matter when, Joseph will always be given priority. Zoe and Lucas will always choose to sacrifice for
him," she said.
These words made Joseph scared and heartbroken.
No!
He didn't need Lucas and Zoe to sacrifice for him.
Zoe was all right now.
Thinking of this, Joseph grasped Zoe's hand and whispered, "Zoe, promise me. No matter what
happens, you will come to me and Lucas first. I just want you to grow up happily. Lucas and I will try
our best to get everything you want. So, promise me that you will stay away from all dangers. You can
never take risks. Understand? "
Zoe paused, looking at Joseph's serious expression. Suddenly, she laughed.
"Joseph, I tried so hard to survive. I will definitely protect myself well. What's wrong with you?"
Hearing her words, Joseph felt even more heartbroken.
Yeah.
Zoe had been tormented by illness since she was born. But it was his mother that had caused all this.
How could he ask Zoe and Lucas to defend him in danger?
Joseph said word by word, "Promise me."
He was so serious that Zoe felt a little afraid.
"Alright, I promise you. Joseph, you scared me."
Zoe was a little scared.
Joseph rearranged his expression and whispered, "I will study medicine hard and make sure that you
are healthy. There will be no problems, I swear."
"Don't be so serious. I know you love me. Joseph, stop talking about this. I'm a little hungry. Shall we
buy something to eat? The mangoes sold on the roadside are so big!"
Zoe acted like a hungry wolf seeing food, causing Joseph to burst into laughter.
"You like nothing but food."
He gently rubbed Zoe's nose, being doting.
"Eating is a human nature. If a person doesn't like food, then he should be an idiot!"
Zoe said as she asked the driver to stop.
After the two got off the car, Samuel also called the driver to pull over.
"What's the matter?"
Samuel was kissing Nicole eagerly. The car behind suddenly stopped. He was stunned for a moment
and asked the reason quickly, holding Nicole in his arms.
"Mr. Green, Miss Zoe and Mr. Joseph got off the car. It seems that they to want to buy something."
The driver reported dutifully.
Samuel looked at the surroundings.
There was only one road here, with mountains on both sides and without a single house nearby. How
could anyone be selling fruit here?
