Phoenix paused for a moment and whispered, "Uncle Jason, let's go to the Green's first. Mr. Green and
Nicole were sent to the Capital City for review for Davon's sake. We don't know when they will be back.
We can't leave the three kids unattended."
Jason was stunned for a moment before nodding.
The car drove to the Green's. It was the same as before, functioning methodically. Seeing Jason and
the others arrive, Ernesto couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, and then quickly walked forward.
"Mr. Jason, Mr. Green is not here."
"I know, I came to take a look. Did Zoe and Joseph come back?"
Jason pushed the wheelchair in, and Lucas followed with his hand held by Phoenix.
Ernesto glanced at Lucas and said, "Not yet, I have already sent someone to pick them up." Mr. Green
had a phone call for me to take good care of the Green family. Recently, the Greens have attracted a
lot of attention. Mr. Green said that the three kids can go to kindergarten to study. Everyone should
follow the steps. As for the Eternal Group, Mr. Green said that Mr. Jarrod would come back to take it
over for some time until Mr. Green returns. "
Hearing that Samuel had arranged everything, Jason felt relieved.
"Is Mr. Jarrod Samuel's cousin Jarrod Austin?"
"Yes."
"When will he be back?"
"Soon."
Ernesto answered all the questions he asked, and Lucas was quite relieved to hear them.
At first, he was afraid that he would be too young. This sudden change would cause the Green family's
property to fall by the wayside. At that time, if someone coveted the Green family's property, he would
not be able to protect it. He even wanted to seek help from Jason. Now that he heard that Daddy had
arranged everything, Lucas heaved a sigh of relief. At the same time, he also admired Samuel's
composure and fearlessness.
When Jason heard that Samuel had arranged everything, although he felt that it was a little strange, he
still didn't say anything.
Phoenix wanted to follow Jason back to the Don's to deal with matters left behind by Davon, so Lucas
stayed.
To be honest, Phoenix wanted Lucas to leave with her.
This little boy had accompanied her through the most difficult days. She really regarded him as her son.
"Lucas, I may be a little busy recently. Can you stay at the Green's by yourself? If you can't, you can
come with me."
Phoenix secretly hoped that Lucas would follow her.
However, Lucas wanted to wait for Joseph and Zoe to come back. Although he wanted to be with
Phoenix as well, he still shook his head and said, "Phoenix, I'd better wait for them at home. If you miss
me, you can call me."
"Alright."
Phoenix was very reluctant, but she still followed Jason.
Lucas stood alone in the living room. It was hard to read his mind.
"Lucas, do you have anything to say?" Ernesto asked in a low voice.
"No, you may leave now. I'll be alone for a while."
Lucas sat on the sofa.
Ernesto hurriedly sent someone to deliver him some food and drinks, and then went to work.
Samuel was not here. He was quite occupied in the company. Now that Mr. Jarrod hadn't returned to
take the company over, so he had gazillion things to deal with.
Phoenix followed Jason back to the Don's. Seeing the familiar place, Phoenix felt very sad.
Jason was afraid that she would be sad, so he told her to go back to her room and rest. He arranged
everything by himself.
Nicole and Samuel were brought to the Capital City directly. Because of Nicole's health condition, the
two of them were arranged together. Although it was said to be an examination, they still invited the
best doctor to come over.
Nicole thought that she would see Blair, but she couldn't help but be stunned when she saw a new
doctor.
Samuel said calmly, "Everyone knows about our relationship with Blair. Besides, Blair has already
retreated, so it's impossible for him to come over. It's the procedure."
"I see."
Nicole did not ask anything else, because she was a little tired because of the journey.
"Get some sleep."
Samuel didn't care much about the investigation and directly asked Nicole to sleep.
When Nicole fell asleep, Samuel was questioned. He had always answered meticulously. Nothing went
wrong with his answers, so the other party couldn't find fault with him.
When Nicole woke up, she saw a familiar person sitting beside her bed and couldn't help but be
stunned.
"Yanice?"
"Awake?"
When Yanice saw that Nicole looked better, she smiled and said, "I thought you knew about your health
condition. How do you feel now? Anything doesn't feel right?"
"Fortunately, everything went well when I see Yanice."
Nicole's sweet words delighted Yanice immediately.
"Don't think I'll let go of you just because you said that."
"What do you want from me?"
Nicole understood it, but she did not expect that the person who came to question her was Yanice. It
was, however, about Davon, so she couldn't reveal anything.
Yanice looked at Nicole's clear eyes and was very reluctant to ask, but she still did it.
"Nicole, I'm getting married in a few days."
"What?"
Nicole was a little surprised.
"You're not..."
Thinking back to William's current situation, Nicole didn't say anything, but Yanice smiled.
"When I was young and frivolous, I was madly in love with someone. Unfortunately, it didn't work out. I
went to see him, only to find a strange new person in him. Perhaps it's because I don't love him
enough. Seeing his current appearance and Sally's meticulous care for him, I suddenly feel that I have
let go of the obsession I've held for years." I finally understand that sometimes it's not necessary to be
together with someone I love, so I'm going to get married. "
Hearing Yanice's words, Nicole felt a little sad.
"Yanice, shouldn't we marry our loved ones?"
Yanice smiled helplessly.
"How many Jacks can finally have their Jills? So you and Samuel should cherish each other and
remember that not everyone has the right to pursue happiness. My identity is different, and the
responsibilities I have to shoulder are also different. My husband was chosen by my brother, so I don't
have other options. And I'm already at this age, it's OK to spend the rest of my life with anyone."
Hearing Yanice's words, Nicole felt so upset.
"Yanice."
"There's no need to comfort me. After all these, I've already thought it through. I will also be
responsible for my life. I came here today to see you. Also, about your cousin Davon..."
Just as Yanice said this, Nicole started crying, and tears rolled down her cheeks.
"Yanice, William still doesn't know, does he?"
"I haven't told him yet."
Yanice suddenly felt that she couldn't even ask what she was saying.
Nicole's health condition was not good, and she was so close to Davon. Now, she was just revealing
her scar. How could Nicole bear it?
However, this was a procedure, and she had no choice.
"He really..."
"Yanice!"
Nicole suddenly threw herself into Yanice's arms and cried very sadly.
"He is too miserable. What should I do? I still can't believe it. Yanice, I was dreaming, right? He is
actually quite good, isn't he?"
Yanice sighed. She stroked Nicole's long hair and said with pity, "You can't bring the dead back to life.
Don't be too sad. Take good care of yourself. The doctors here are all super. As long as you have a
better mentality, everything will be fine."
"How's Samuel? His wound..."
"His wound has been treated. It will be fine. Don't worry, tell me if you need anything here. Apart from
not being able to leave here, I can generally agree to any other requests."
Yanice wanted to let Nicole understand that she would not be able to leave in the near future.
Because Nicole's condition wasn't very good, Yanice only said a few words before she left.
Zoe and Joseph came back the next morning after Lucas returned home. At that time, Lucas was still
resting, but he felt that there were a few gazes on him, making it impossible for him to continue
sleeping. Then, he opened his eyes.
Seeing Joseph and Zoe standing in front of his bed looking at him, Lucas was stunned by their dusty
appearances.
"No, where did you come from?"
"I came back from Africa."
Joseph said.
However, Zoe did not reply and directly asked, "Lucas, what happened at home? Where are Daddy
and Mommy?"
It was rare for Zoe to look so serious. Lucas couldn't help but ask, "Weren't you learning violin from that
person? I thought you wouldn't want to be back."
"Lucas, I'm more than serious. I heard from Nash that Daddy and Mommy were taken to the Capital
City. What kind of investigation did they go to? What exactly happened?"
Zoe had always feared investigation. She remembered that when Uncle Emory was being investigated,
there had always been people watching from outside Nash's house. Though there was no one outside
their house, it still made her feel very uncomfortable.
Lucas cursed Nash in his heart, "why did he tell Zoe everything?"
At this time, Joseph also said, "Lucas, it's better to tell us what had happened. Otherwise, no one will
be able to be at ease."
Hearing what they said, Lucas told him the whole story. He skipped the part he wasn't sure about. He
only said that his eldest uncle might have been gone.
He originally thought that Zoe would cry and make a fuss, but he didn't expect her to be especially
calm. After listening to him, she said, "What do daddy and mommy want for us?"
"They want us to go to the kindergarten as usual until they come back."
Hearing Lucas' words, Zoe directly turned around and left. When she opened the door, she said, "Let
me know when you find the kindergarten. I'm a little sleepy. I've got to make up for my sleep."
"Aren't you worried about Daddy and Mommy?"
Lucas felt that Zoe was a bit strange.
Zoe casually waved her hand and said, "Since they said so, they naturally have a plan. We just need to
follow it."
Lucas suddenly realized that this girl lived quite thoroughly, but he was actually not as calm as this
sister.
"Lucas, have you seen Morgan? Do you know what she has been busy with recently? Didn't she follow
Daddy?" Joseph also felt relieved but asked hesitantly.
Speaking of Morgan, Lucas realized that he hadn't seen her since Davon was killed. Could it be that
she had something to do with this? He started to wonder whether or not to look into it himself.
