Nicole was excited.
Samuel took a look and paused when he saw that it was Sally.
"She sent a message. Maybe she knows where Nicole's second uncle is?"
"That's what I think."
Nicole read Sally's message.
"Nicole, Nicole's second uncle is with Aaron."
Samuel and Nicole were stunned by this short sentence. ,
Aaron?
Samuel was even more surprised.
Not long ago, he had seen Jarrod. If he had known that, he would have asked Jarrod about it.
No wonder Jarrod told him not to interfere. So he knew about this, didn't he?
Samuel's expression became a little ugly.
Nicole frowned tightly.
"Where is Aaron?"
She muttered to herself in a depressed voice.
Samuel looked at her and hesitated for a moment, "I don't know where Aaron is, but his son Jarrod
should be here."
"What?"
Nicole looked at Samuel in surprise.
Samuel sighed and said, "The man in front of Vincent's tombstone is Jarrod."
"Who?"
Although Nicole guessed that man's identity was not ordinary, she didn't expect him to be Samuel's
half-brother. She was really surprised.
Samuel smiled bitterly and said, "I didn't mean to hide it from you. I just think it is unnecessary for you
to know. He meant no harm. He just advised me to stay out of Emory's business, but I rejected him."
"What? He advised you that? Is Emory's thing related to him?"
"Maybe. I feel that Aaron can't get away from what happened back then."
Samuel narrowed his eyes and looked at the scenery outside, "The Harper Town was destroyed
because Aaron gave Lindo the map. He said Zama is the young master of the town and she cannot be
with him. He said that as long as the town is destroyed, Zama can be with him with no burden.
However, there is a problem that I couldn't figure out before. "
"What?"
Nicole looked at Samuel and asked. When he thought something was wrong, it was often the key to the
problem.
Samuel whispered, "The Harper Town is a closed place. For thousands of years, they had intermarried
with people from the town. Aaron is an outsider. How did he enter there? He explained that he was
hiding in the back mountain, but you also knew that to get to the back mountain, one needs to pass
through the front of the town or even the ancestral hall. Do you think it's possible to bring an outsider in
secretly? Even if Zama was the young master, she wouldn't be able to hide this for long. But not only
did Aaron enter, he also had a child with Zama. He even brought about the destruction of the town after
giving birth to this child. In the past year, not a single person discovered it. Do you think it's possible?"
Hearing Samuel's words, Nicole understood.
"You mean that Aaron was not a secret to the town. His arrival was well known, and he may even had a
great reputation! Only then did the town accept him for this long time."
"That's right. But the Harper Town has always excluded outsiders. Why is Aaron so special? Perhaps
something happened in the town that we don't know. I'm talking about something important may
happened more than a year ago, long before the destruction."
Samuel could not figure out.
If they could solve this problem, the whole thing would be clear.
Now, he knew the reason why the Harper Town had been destroyed, but that was not enough. Perhaps
the only one who knew the truth was Nicole's second uncle. Unfortunately, he was with Aaron.
Who else knew about the Harper Town?
Samuel knew very well that Jarrod's advice was well-meaning. He did do because he treated Samuel
as a brother.
Perhaps it was because of Vincent, or perhaps Jarrod really wanted to be close to Samuel. But Jarrod
would never go against Aaron.
Therefore, even if Jarrod knew something, he would not say it. He would not betray his father for a
friend.
Samuel really didn't know who else to ask.
Zoe and Joseph stayed quietly. They didn't seem to be listening, but at this moment, Zoe suddenly said
something.
"I know someone who might know the truth."
"You know what?"
Nicole was rather surprised. She was getting more and more confused about her daughter.
Zoe was a little embarrassed. She scratched her head and said, "Mommy, don't look at me like that. It's
Juliana. Her Mommy is from the Harper Town, and she should be very old now. Moreover, when the
town was destroyed, her Mommy was expelled from the town. So she could survive. Perhaps she
knows something."
Nicole and Samuel remembered that Juliana.
In Samuel's eyes, Juliana was Emory's people. To protect her or keep her in secrecy, it was necessary
to give her some special identity. Juliana said that she was the descendant of the town, and Samuel did
not care. After all, the destruction of the town was the answer given by his Memory Bug. Samuel did
not expect that Juliana was actually the real descendant.
At that time, Juliana did not feel that Samuel had the Golden Bug and didn't recognize him as the
current head of the Harper Town. That was why Samuel felt that her identity was fake. Now, it may
because her mother was still alive, and she did not have the Memory Bug. That was the reason.
Thinking of this, Samuel became enlightened.
"Where does Juliana live? Do we need to turn around?"
"No. Her mother stays at the place where we are going next. It's a small town called the Bryan Town."
Zoe said with a smile.
Juliana still owed her a meal. Zoe was in a good mood when thought about this.
Seeing Zoe like this, Samuel smiled. He touched Zoe's head and said, "You've done great."
"Sure!"
Zoe was a little proud.
Seeing this, Nicole smiled too.
Joseph still couldn't adapt to Zoe's change. He whispered, "You saw Juliana for once. How did you
know about this? Did Lucas help you?"
"No, she told me herself."
"When?"
Zoe was stunned. She couldn't tell Joseph that it was when Joseph was knocked out by Mommy. Then
Joseph would know that his little sister was a sniper. He wouldn't be able to accept it.
Zoe felt that she should tell Joseph a white lie.
"I forgot. I just remembered that she owed me a treat. She said that there were many great foods here.
I don't remember anything else."
At this moment, Juliana suddenly sneezed and felt her nose itch.
Who was talking about her?
Hearing Zoe's words, Samuel smiled.
Nicole did not expose Zoe.
Joseph was still a little puzzled. He looked at Zoe's bright eyes and sighed, "I hope you can be a happy
foodie."
"I want to. And I've been trying."
Zoe also nodded seriously. Everyone laughed.
The vibe was lightened.
Nicole was looking forward to it.
Originally, they were here for Emory. But they didn't expect that it would become more and more
complicated. Maybe they would discover a shocking secret.
Emory was controlled because of the Harper Town thing.
Perhaps Samuel was correct. Emory must had known something. Perhaps he knew the truth about the
destruction of the town.
Nicole looked at the road and hoped that this matter would be solved as soon as possible.
Aaron!
She had heard the name, but soon forgot it. She didn't know this man was the key.
Why did he enter the Harper Town? Why would he become an exception? Perhaps they would know
the answer soon.
Nicole was a little excited.
The secret of the Harper Town had troubled two generations, including Samuel and Nicole. Now, if they
could find a breakthrough, they would be able to discover the mystery. They would get a relief.
Nicole held Samuel's hand tightly. She was full of hope for the future.
Samuel relaxed a little. He looked at Nicole's tender eyes, and felt an inexplicable happiness.
His innate mission and fate made him miserable. Fortunately, because of these, he could meet Nicole.
And the relationship between them became better and better. Perhaps this was a blessing in disguise.
Zoe felt a little depressed when she saw this.
What was she doing here?
It seemed unnecessary for her to show up.
These two people! They didn't care about others!
Zoe bit the fruit in frustration and pretended not to see anything.
Joseph pursed his lips and smiled.
The car drove to the Bryan Town. The scenery here was beautiful. Zoe was happy and excited.
She took out her phone and took a few photos, then sent them to Juliana with a sentence.
"Juliana, I'm coming. Remember to treat me to dinner."
Zoe fantasized about the coming meal, but she was suddenly pulled by Samuel. Samuel was serious.
Zoe's heart skipped a beat.
