Nicole and Samuel looked at Davon nervously.
They could feel a sense of coldness on his face. Then Davon gave a smile, charming but bitter.
"So, Davon should sacrifice his life for his country."
Nicole heaved a sigh of relief as soon as he said this.
Fortunately, he thought the same as her.
"But if that's the case, Phoenix will be devastated."
Samuel knew that it was the best way to protect Davon, but he had to conceal the news that he was
still alive from everybody. Because once it leaked out, everyone would focus on Phoenix. Any single
action she took would ruin Davon's efforts.
Thinking of Phoenix who was so sad that couldn't eat anything because of him, Davon's mind was in
turmoil.
"For our happiness in the future, I have to hurt her now. But I swear I will love her for the rest of my
life."
Nevertheless, he knew it was hard for a woman to bear the pain of losing her husband.
Nicole felt sad for Phoenix, too.
Samuel whispered, "Dad knows you're still alive. Haven't you ever thought about telling him about
this?"
"No, it was not necessary."
Davon shook his head.
"Uncle Elvis has suffered for so many years, but he still doesn't change his mind. I know he will leave
his favorite military compound for me and even will do something to protect me, but that's not what I
want. Uncle and aunt had a hard life. They should enjoy their happy life together after all these years of
suffering. There is no need for him to sacrifice all these for me. This document was a top secret. Since
Uncle Elvis had never seen it before, then he should never see it. I, Davon, won't drag down the entire
family for my own safety."
"But my parents know that you're still alive. If I said you're dead, I'm afraid they won't trust it," Nicole
said.
Davon smiled and said, "I'm still here now. Uncle Elvis wants us to return to Capital City together. If I
didn't know about the truth, I would have gone. But now, my life isn't just mine. I have to detoxify my
father and take care of my wife. So I must be a martyr. As long as Davon is alive, he is a special person
that will attract the attention of tens of thousands of people. Even my family will have to live under this
attention. It's not fair to them. "
"Is that fair to you?"
Nicole started to feel sorry for Davon.
Davon smiled faintly and said indifferently, "It's not fair, but with all these years of cultivation, let's treat it
as a draw."
"Davon!"
Nicole couldn't help but hug him.
Samuel frowned slightly. He really wanted to kick Davon out, but for Nicole's sake, he didn't do it.
"So what's your plan?"
Samuel gritted his teeth as he spoke. He glared at Davon who was holding Nicole tightly, which
surprised Davon. Then, he understood and burst into laughter.
Davon thought Samuel was a really jealous husband. But if it was Phoenix hugging Samuel now, he
would probably be in the same mood as him.
"Alright, you are not a young girl. People said that men and women are different since the age of
seven. You should at least care about your husband. He is right here!"
Nicole was stunned and then she understood what he meant. Turning around to see Samuel who was
staring at her awkwardly, Nicole laughed, too.
"Oh my god! He is my brother!"
"If he weren't your brother, I've already given him a punch."
Samuel muttered.
"Well, thank you."
Davon glanced at him with contempt and said, "As long as we are here, everything is possible.
Perhaps I can discuss it with Laurence."
"Laurence?"
Samuel and Nicole were upset.
"Didn't Laurence go berserk now? What are you planning to do?"
Davon whispered, "My blood can let Laurence sleep, so I think perhaps he might regain his rationality if
I give him more blood!"
"No way!"
Nicole and Samuel said at the same time.
"Are you crazy? Don't you know how precious your blood is? No one in this world can give you a blood
transfusion! If you lose too much blood to keep your life, then you really will die!"
Samuel cannot understand him. He was so crazy.
However, Davon said calmly, "If not, can you come up with a better way to die? Unless I was torn apart
by Laurence and my bones are gone, otherwise, where would you find a corpse that is exactly the
same as mine? Most important thing is, its blood composition should be the same as mine!"
Nicole and Samuel fell silent.
Indeed, no one in this world would have the same blood type as Davon.
"But..."
"There's no 'but's. If I don't do this, I will be treated as a white mouse for good. So will my kids and
descendants. That being the case, I have to risk it. And I need your help!"
Samuel felt stressed out.
"You only remember me when there is a danger."
"Right, peaceful time is left for my wife. You're not my wife."
Samuel was speechless.
He thought, 'Well, he is right.'
Nicole was still worried.
"Davon, let's have a second thought."
"There's no time. It's almost dawn. It'll be too late then."
Davon made up his mind.
Even though Nicole was concerned, she did not dare to oppose it. After all, what Davon said was right.
Davon left and Nicole was anxious.
"Samuel, do you think my brother's plan will succeed?"
"We have to succeed. Otherwise, everything will be over. If we fail, everybody will find out that he wants
to escape. Then the seniors will pay more attention to him and even will suspect dad."
Samuel thought more and farther.
"What should we do now? The plan that must succeed is to make my brother pay the price of his blood.
We didn't know how much blood he needed to lose. If you want people to believe it, there must be a
large amount of blood on the crime scene. But the amount of blood in one's body is limited. Even if the
blood can be resupplied by itself, it takes time. I'm really afraid..."
How could Samuel not be afraid?
Not only just Nicole but also Samuel must have thought of it. His brows furrowed.
"I'll call Morgan to prepare some medicine to help replenish blood. As long as Davon carries out the
plan, I'll let Morgan take care of Davon. I had better let Zayn arrange a place for Davon to recover from
the blood loss."
Speaking of Morgan, Nicole was concerned.
"My mother was poisoned but was diagnosed with cancer by her. I don't know if she is trustworthy.
Samuel, both Davon, and my mother are the important families!"
"I understand, so don't worry. I don't know how Morgan used to be. I will ask her about your mother, but
she definitely won't betray me now."
What Samuel had said surprised Nicole.
"Are you sure?"
"Positive. She was controlled by bugs of Jarrod."
Samuel had never told anyone about it. Now that Nicole was so worried, he said.
"Jarrod?"
"Yes."
Samuel nodded.
"He was worried about that, too. He was afraid that Morgan followed me for other reasons, so he
poisoned Morgan. If she wasn't loyal to me, she would die, miserably."
Nicole didn't know much about bugs, but if Samuel said so, Nicole would believe him.
"Alright, let's go. I'll call Second Brother. You call Morgan."
"Okay."
The couple moved quickly.
Tonight was bound to be extraordinary.
At around four in the morning, Laurence's lab was kicked open again. Laurence ran out violently, killing
the guards and running towards the outskirts of the Dark Forest.
Xander and Audrey got the news and chased after him. Davon also ran out.
"Researchers, bring the tranquilizer with me!"
Researchers followed him.
Audrey said worriedly, "Why Laurence wakes up so early? He slept for only 2 to 3 hours."
Xander frowned.
"If it's true, I'm afraid Laurence will be out of control."
"Then what should we do?"
Audrey knew Xander was under huge pressure, so she was worried.
"Bring Laurence back first."
Everyone moved out because of Laurence.
Nicole stayed for she was pregnant. Lucas stayed with her, afraid that she alone would be worried a lot.
"Mommy, don't worry. Uncle Laurence will be fine."
Although he was young, he knew that it was beyond his ability. Now, he only hoped he could comfort
his mommy.
Nicole nodded and held Lucas in her arms. She whispered, "With you here, Mommy is not afraid."
But Nicole was still upset.
This was a dangerous plan. If it failed, all of them would be finished.
Nicole did not think that everyone here was loyal to Xander.
Xander had been trapped on Elvis' island for years, how could he have his own people? Everyone here
was probably just sent by the officials to assist Xander in his research.
Therefore, Samuel was right. We had to succeed today.
Nicole waited nervously. Zayn didn't dare to relax. He sent someone to find a secret place for Davon,
but he found that there is nowhere absolutely safe.
Seeing his anxious expression, the chief guard said, "Your majesty, I have an idea. But I am not sure if
it will work."
"Just tell me! As long as you handle it, I promise your family prosperity."
For Zayn, nothing was more important than his family. The only relatives he had now were Phoenix and
Davon. He would relinquish his throne for their safety.
Nicole nodded and held Lucas in her arms. She whispered, "With you here, Mommy is not afraid."
But Nicole was still upset.
This was a dangerous plan. If it failed, all of them would be finished.
