"Who is there?"
Samuel immediately became nervous and stood in front of Nicole to protect her. In shock, he behaved
subconsciously, which made Nicole very moved.
If a man's intuition was to protect, what objections would a woman have?
How could she not fall in love with such a man?
Nicole tightly grabbed Samuel's arm and whispered, "Would it be Uncle William?"
She had thought about the worst. It was very dark here, so dark that no light could be seen. If they
hadn't brought their phones, they wouldn't be able to see anything here.
If it was really Uncle William, he might have lived in this environment for years. Nicole simply didn't
dare to think further.
"Uncle William, I am Nicole, the daughter of Xander Don and Audrey Shaw. Are you my second uncle,
William Don?"
Nicole knew that it was unwise to expose herself at this time because she did not know if the person
was an enemy or a friend. But now she could no longer cared about it.
William paused for a moment, as if he was digesting Nicole's words. But he couldn't believe it.
His voice was quite hoarse and uncomfortable, but he still asked, "Are you Brother Xander's
daughter?"
"It's me, Uncle William. I'm here to take you home."
Nicole was excited and even trembled.
Samuel took a step forward and illuminated the opposite side. Only then did he see a person chained
there, half-squatting like a dog.
His hair was very long and nasty, even sticking together. The foul stench blew over, stinking people to
retreat.
His face was covered by hair and couldn't be seen clearly. The clothes he wore were rather tattered, in
which some parts had even shattered. The exposing skin was covered in scars newly and formerly
made, shocking everyone.
Though Nicole only glanced at him, she was already unable to withstand it. She didn't know if it was
due to the light, William's hair seemed to be entirely grey, dazzling her eyes.
Samuel did not dare to stay here for too long. He took a step forward and said, "Uncle William, I am
Nicole's husband, Samuel. I will take you out. Let's go out first and talk about the things you have
experienced later."
"Alright."
William was also excited.
No matter what, he was William of the Don Family. However, he lived worse than a dog for so many
years. Now, he was even sloppier in front of his niece. If he had a choice, William would rather bash
against the wall. However, he could not die, at least not now.
Looking at William's dirtiness all over, Nicole remembered that Samuel had mysophobia and said, "Let
me carry Uncle William."
"I am not dead yet."
Samuel glanced at her, feeling a little dissatisfied. He immediately cut off the rope on William's body.
Then, he turned around and carried William on his back. He quickly walked outward.
"Morgan, take care of Nicole. I'll go out first."
Samuel said as he walked. After all, the situation here was not very good.
"Alright."
Morgan replied promptly.
Nicole no longer cared about anything else. She was excited, and followed Samuel's footsteps to walk
out. As for the dirt beneath her feet, she ignored it.
The three finally got out of the cellar. The people outside were still asleep.
Morgan helped Nicole out. Samuel looked at the sleeping people and became outraged.
"Throw them to the mountain and feed them to the wolf."
The mountain was covered by primeval forest. There were not only wolves, but also other ferocious
animals. Samuel was not so angry until he saw William.
No matter what, these people were too odious.
Nicole did not criticize Samuel's instructions at all. She even felt that the punishment could be heavier,
but it was not the right time to care about this.
Morgan carried out the order at once, while Samuel and Nicole quickly left the room with William on
their backs.
There was a car waiting outside. Samuel had no second thought. He directly got in the car with Nicole
and William. They immediately returned to the Harper Town.
Sally already came out. When she saw Samuel coming back, she was slightly stunned and then rushed
to them.
"Nicole, where have you been?"
Sally's cold voice caused William's body to tremble.
He was no longer the young William, let alone the charming and elegant one. Now, he was even
inferior to a beggar.
William lowered his head as much as possible. He even couldn't face Sally.
Nicole glanced at William and felt like crying.
"Auntie, Samuel and I went out to pick up a person."
Nicole didn't tell it was William. She knew that William definitely didn't want Sally to see him like this.
How sweet the two lovers had been! But something unexpected made them stranger to each other.
Sally only glanced and was dumbfounded.
She beat the door and said anxiously, "Open the door!"
"Don't open it!"
William's voice wasn't loud, but was heard by Sally.
"Don't open? William Don, don't you dare say it again!"
Sally's tears instantly rolled down her cheeks.
She had searched for so many years. But she never thought that she would find him out and see him
again in her lifetime. She never thought that it would be like this when she saw him.
Even though the long hair covered his face, his voice, his appearance and every tiny movement he
made were engraved in her mind. How could she be mistaken as she recalled and reviewed them
every day?
Even though the person under her nose was thinner and more haggard than before, it was him still.
Upon hearing Sally calling out his name, William suddenly wanted to jump out of the car and escape,
but was grabbed tightly by Nicole.
"Uncle William, where are you going? I've been looking for you for so long. Uncle Mark and Uncle
Jason are still waiting for you to go home. Where are you going?"
Nicole's words confirmed Sally's conjecture indirectly.
Sally's tears blurred her eyes. She patted the window and shouted at Samuel, "Open the door!"
At this time, Samuel saw no slight hatred or disgust in Sally's eyes, only sorrow and agony instead.
Only those who in deed loved William would not care about his current state.
Samuel sighed and opened the car door.
"No!"
William wanted to stop him. But it was too late.
Sally rushed forward and hugged William without hesitation. His warm body made her cry out right
away.
"You bastard! You're an asshole! You said you were going to marry me. You said that no matter who I
am, no matter what situation I'm in, you won't leave me. What happened then? Where did you go? I've
been waiting for you for over 20 years, and I've been looking for you for over 20 years. Do you know?
You said you would save me, but in the end, you let me marry an old man, and even gave birth to a son
for him. Aren't you despising me now, are you? Don't you think I don't deserve you, do you? How dare
you try to escape in front of me! William Don, you're a coward!"
Sally was always calm in front of Nicole and Samuel. She was even a little arrogant. But now she was
like a shrew, constantly cursing William and even hammering his chest. Her sincere tears burst out and
all her decency disappeared. However, Nicole felt that only at this time, Sally was a normal woman, a
woman with emotions.
Samuel blinked at Nicole, and Nicole immediately understood.
Although she had a lot to say to and ask William, she should now leave some time for them.
Nicole quietly got off the car and left with Samuel hand in hand.
Samuel asked someone to enhance the security here before bringing Nicole into the room.
"Take a shower, Nicole."
Nicole knew Samuel's earlier discomfort.
However, Nicole shook her head and said, "It's better for you to go first. You have mysophobia. But just
now, you carried William on your back so naturally. Samuel, thank you."
"We are old married couple, what are you talking about? He's your Uncle, and also mine!"
Nicole was speechless, but her heart was warm. She knew that Samuel loved her dearly.
Compared to Sally and William, Audrey and Xander, he and Nicole were so lucky.
Nicole nodded, no longer declining Samuel. She went into the bathroom.
Samuel went to another room to wash up and changed into clean clothes. He also sent someone to
prepare clothes for William.
Although he didn't know how long Sally and William would chat, Sally definitely couldn't bear William
being so sloppy. He must be cleaned up.
Samuel had the clothes and some food sent over. He knew that having been locked up in the cellar for
many years, William must have suffered both physically and mentally. Now it was the time for him to
absorb nutrition.
After doing all these, Samuel went to clean himself up.
When Nicole came out, Samuel had dealt with everything.
William was dragged to into Sally's room. She didn't care about the smell of William and directly pulled
him into the bathroom.
Sally went into the bathroom and took off William's clothes. William was so frightened that he dragged
his rags tightly and said in a hoarse voice, "Sally, I'll do it myself. I can do it."
"Really?"
Sally looked at him as if she was afraid that he would run away.
Look at this woman whom he loved deeply, she was still gorgeous after decades. But look at himself
now, William really wanted to disappear.
At present, he didn't deserve Sally. That was for sure.
He dodged her gazes and whispered, "I really can."
"William Don, listen carefully. If you dare to run away from me once more, I will not let you off even if
chase you to the hell."
William was extremely shocked by Sally's resolute attitude. But he showed nothing.
"I'm going to take a shower. You go out first."
William actually drove people away!
Sally knew that he used to be a person with high self-esteem. Now that he was seen in such an
awkward state, he must be very uncomfortable.
At this moment, Sally hated the king of Country F desperately. She wished she could dismember
him!
