It’s been an hour since Nicole knew that Fill had left to help Samuel. Trevin always tried to tell Nicole,
but there were too many wounded. Nicole and Olivia had been busy helping, so they didn’t have much
time.
When she finally had some time, it’s been more than an hour.
Nicole paused, but she said nothing. But she simply asked Trevin to take care of the wounded with her
instead.
The battle had lasted all night. When the morning sun shone in, there was finally no sound of cannons,
but it was not quiet here.
Many of the wounded started to cry in pain after the effect of the anesthetic faded down.
For the first time, Nicole realized the hardships of being a battlefield medic.
Olivia hadn’t rested all night long. Nicole couldn’t help dragging her as she noticed Olivia’s haggard
look.
“Just go and take a break.”
“There are so many patients that need my help...”
“Take a break!”
Nicole interrupted Olivia with a firm attitude.
Olivia had rarely seen Nicole being so tough like this. She couldn’t help but feel a little shocked. But
then she followed Nicole’s eyesight to her belly.
“Olivia, I won’t stop you from doing what you want. But you have to mind your own body. You are a
pregnant woman now! If you are still planning to give birth to this child for Jacob, then go and rest. I can
take care of all the stuff here!”
Nicole’s words silenced Olivia.
She was indeed a little tired.
In fact, she had her own reason.
She wanted to check out the wounded here and confirm with her own eyes that there was no Jacob
among them. Maybe this was stupid, but what else could she do now?
The battlefield was too big. Even if she walked around the whole battle ground, she would not be able
to find Jacob. That’s why she waited here.
This is the only battlefield hospital. No matter who is injured, they must be sent here.
If she never got to see Jacob, she felt relieved.
But Olivia also knew that Nicole was right. She needed to mind her body. After all, it’s the precious of
their love in her belly.
“Okay, I’ll take a rest, if there is any news...”
“I will tell you immediately.”
Nicole’s promise made Olivia relieved.
There were dark eye circles around her eyes. It was obvious that Olivia hadn’t had much sound sleep
since she got here.
Nicole felt distressed and sorry for her.
Olivia finally went to rest.
Seeing Nicole’s tired look, Harper stepped forward and said, “Madam, you should also take a rest.”
Nicole paused and asked, “Has Fill left for all night?”
“Yes.”
“Is there any news coming back?”
“No.”
Not knowing what Nicole was thinking, she was staring at the ground without any expression.
Seeing her expression, Trevin comforted her in a low voice, “Madam, why don’t you convince yourself
with the way you convince Mrs. Brown? You haven’t rested all night too. Your body will be unable to
hold on to the job.”
“I will wait for Olivia to wake up. I will take a rest when she wakes up.”
Nicole knew what Olivia was thinking. She would check out the wounded for Olivia, when she was not
here!
But it was true that she was a little tired.
“Please take care of them. I’m going out for a walk.”
The smell of blood here was too fierce, even a little unbearable.
Trevin nodded.
Nicole left the hospital for the bamboo forest behind the hospital and sat down in a far-off place.
This was indeed a quiet place.
She leaned against the fence, wondering what Samuel was doing now. Would he be angry when he
knew that she had come to this overseas battlefield?
He might!
The man was always afraid that she would be hurt.
Thinking of Samuel’s expression, Nicole couldn’t help but smile slightly.
Suddenly there was the sound of careful footsteps outside.
Nicole frowned slightly.
She tried so hard to find such a secluded place and wanted to take a breath for a while. Who was so
lucky to find the same place as she did?
Nicole was about to go out and heil when she heard someone say something in a foreign language.
Her body froze suddenly.
All the soldiers were from their country. So why would someone speak a foreign language here?
Nicole suddenly got alert.
Fortunately, after working abroad for five years, Nicole has worked hard to learn several foreign
languages. And now the experience helped a lot.
A woman’s voice sounded quiet.
“How is the plan? Did our men get in?”
“Yeah. Twelve people got in pretending to be wounded. As long as we survive this morning, we will be
able to control this place at noon. I have asked them all to bring a small bottle of potion and put them in
their dishes when no one notices at noon. I had prepared everything we need.”
The other side was a man.
Nicole’s eyes suddenly narrowed.
Pretending to be wounded just to control the battlefield hospital?
Why?
She held her breath and continued to eavesdrop.
The previous woman whispered, “Be careful. Make sure your men do not touch the potion. These
people are wounded and are weak. As long as they are infected with pathogens and are sent back to
the country, these pathogens will spread all over the country from those patients. Then the pathogens
will be like a plague spreading over the entire country. Even if we are temporarily defeated on the
battlefield, the final victory still belongs to us! “
“Yes!”
The two conspired some more, and then left quickly.
Nicole breathed a sigh of relief after they left. She almost suffocated herself. But she also frowned
because of this shocking secret.
Fill was right. The war was really cruel and terrifying. This was no longer the battle of a man and a gun
that she knew from TV.
She was out of anger once she thought of all the damage and death they caused if they would be able
to complete their conspiracy.
Nicole quickly returned to the hospital and found Trevin.
“Gather all our men together. Let them go check everyone who was sent in last night. I want a list of all
the wounded.”
Trevin was slightly taken aback.
“Everyone? Madam, there were a lot of them who were taken in last night, and there are more than a
hundred. If we check them out one by one, I’m afraid...”
Before Trevin’s words were finished, Nicole’s eyes suddenly shot over coldly.
“I’ll do it now!”
“Remember, do it secretly. No one can know this!”
“Yes, madam!”
Trevin quickly took the order and left.
Nicole checked the time, and Olivia had only slept for an hour.
Although she felt sorry for Olivia, she still walked over and woke up Olivia.
“What’s wrong?”
Olivia was still in a dazed mood. But as soon as she opened her eyes and saw Nicole’s solemn
expression, she couldn’t help but be shocked. Then she thought that something was wrong with Jacob,
her dizziness and sleepiness were all gone.
“What happened to Jacob?”
“He’s okay, but I am afraid that we are having trouble.”
Nicole told Olivia what she had heard, and Olivia was blindfolded.
“They are so insidious? So, what are you going to do?”
