Chapter 1696 There Is No Sacrifice Without Reason
Chapter 1696 There Is No Sacrifice Without Reason
“It’s our men!”
Tim was being helped on his feet, and as he looked at the helicopters hovering above him brandishing
the Sky Group and Night Elf Empire Emblem, he couldn’t help but let out a sigh of relief.
Trevin saw it too.
It seemed that the vice-captain was able to reach Fill of the Sky Group finally.
“It’s me who have asked Fill to reach out to people from the Night Elf.”
Samuel seemed to be able to read Trevin’s mind. He patted Trevin’s shoulder and said in a low voice,
“Is that girl very important to you?”
Important?
Trevin froze for a moment.
That’s right.
She’s important to him!
They were like family!
However, Samuel continued, “You must be good to that girl. She’s willing to come all the distance and
come out on an international mission with you. If she doesn’t love you to the core, I don’t think she is
willing to do that. If Nicole knew that you have a girlfriend now, she would be ecstatic. Don’t worry, I will
look for the best doctor to cure her. I will make sure she won’t even have any side-effects.”
Trevin was at a loss for words.
He looked at Samuel, and from his eyes he found that it was very likely he could no longer conceal his
feelings for Nicole.
Perhaps, he didn’t intend to hide this from Samuel anyway.
Samuel was a very jealous person, and he knew that very well. However, even though he might have
known his feelings, Samuel didn’t expose him and instead, he continued to be good to him. This meant
that Samuel believed him so much, and he believed Nicole so much.
That’s right.
Based on how deep their ties went, nobody could stick a foot into their relationship.
He had known all along that his feelings for Nicole were just his delusion, and now it was just that
someone had made that clear to him. It was time for him to be back to reality.
“I know. I will treat her well.”
“Trevin, we all have our own life, but love is almost all the same. There is no sacrifice in this world
without reason, just like the time when you went deep into enemy territory for Nicole’s sake and
purposely got your legs and hands decapitated. Now, your girl is doing the same thing for you. She’s
willing to sacrifice her life for you, am I right?”
Samuel’s words once again had a huge impact on Trevin.
It turned out that he was already exposed since the beginning.
Too bad, at that time he didn’t know why he would be willing to give up on everything, and by the time
he finally understood, he no longer knew how to talk about it.
“Thank you, Mr. Green.”
“We are brothers. You don’t have to thank me. I should be the one thanking you. I need to thank you for
stopping Nicole from coming, and thank you for coming to our rescue.”
“But you don’t need us to save you anyway. If we didn’t come and almost ruin you and Mr. Tim’s
plan…”
Trevin was not an idiot. He could see that if it were not for himself, Tim was able to come support
Samuel.
He knew next to nothing about the developments here.
Samuel patted his shoulders and said, “That’s not it. You came at the right time.”
The lot of them were brought back to the border.
The overseas battlefield came to a peaceful conclusion after the negotiation of Samuel and Tim.
This news immediately reached to the country, and Mr. Morty’s perched up and highly-strung heart
could finally relax.
It solidified his belief that his Sam was capable enough to do that. He was right!
It was a pity that he couldn’t stay in the military area for long.
As for Samuel, Morty messaged Samuel to ask him to come back to the military to help him. However,
he was rejected by Samuel.
Samuel cited that he could no longer stand a bloody dispute, and with his heart waning, he found
himself no longer belonging to the battlefield.
Who would not want to keep his own wife and children his company and have a lively family?
Furthermore, his wife was pregnant now.
Morty felt an anguish after hearing that, but luckily he still had Jacob.
The Close family had also received the same piece of news.
Ebby didn’t have a good look on her face. She looked at her father and said in a low voice, “Dad, we
have been planning this for so long, but I can’t believe Samuel has resolved the whole thing easily.
Now that the president of the W Country has dished out the order to capture us, we need to leave here
now.”
“Leave here? Twenty years ago, we ran away from Z Country and came here, and we slowly became
strong enough that we could shake up the president of W Country. Do you think that you can just go to
another country and use another twenty years to start things up again? Do you think we can create
another puppet president again?”
Clark’s voice was icy cold, and he even sounded a little sarcastic.
Ebby snapped back her head in shock and said to Clark, “Brother, why are you so down and out now? Content held by NôvelDrama.Org.
Even if we don’t have much time left, we still have our generations to come, no? We can do whatever it
takes to honour our grandpa’s principles.”
“Principles? What is that, even? If it is something that has let his future generations leave their home
country and can only die in another country, then I don’t even think it’s worth it to stand by those
principles.”
Clark was obviously tired.
If it were not for those shitty principles, he wouldn’t have parted with her biological daughter for twenty
years, and they would not be like strangers with their daughter.
Kelly watched the ever disputing siblings and couldn’t help but frown.
The Close family was always united in heart, and they would tolerate with each other even if it was just
a mere order. However, Clark was showing clear signs that he was going to betray them.
Kelly was looking coldly at Clark, just like Ebby.
“Clark, what do you mean by that? Are you going to stand against us?”
“Stand against you?”
Clark suddenly chuckled.
He looked at his own father and sister and pointed at his own legs, “You still remember how I lost my
legs, don’t you?”
A trace of anguish and sorrow flashed by in Kelly’s eyes.
“I will make them pay the price.”
“But why do they even treat us like that? That’s because we have done things to hurt the country and
its people. Dad, all those bygone years, Alison was never by our side, and I keep thinking that this is
God’s way of punishing us. We have done too many evil things that even God couldn’t turn a blind eye
to us anymore. That’s why we live like that, but we are still at the edge of the cliff. It’s still not too late.
The Close family still have a lot up our sleeves, so we should just look for a small country and live in
anonymity, don’t you think? Why do we have to make our lives difficult? Grandpa’s principles are totally
his own selfish desire…”
“Grandpa always want our family to grow bigger and its name to be known!”
Ebby interrupted him.
“Brother, you are not like this in the past. Is it because Alison has told you something? Have you
forgotten about our grandpa’s grand dream? He wished for us to be a God among men! We even have
an Emperor in our family, no? We should…”
“We are just having delusions! For the sake of one family getting to the top of the world, everyone has
to pay their price in blood, and this is just insanity! This is no dream!”
Clark spoke very rudely for the first time, which angered Kelly.
“You bastard! Your head must be wrong somewhere! Somebody! Come! Bring the young master down
and keep him from going anywhere. From now on, Ebby will be in charge of all of the family business.”
The moment Kelly finished his words, a very chilly voice came from outside.
“I dare you to lay a single finger on my father!”
Alison walked in from somewhere out there, and there were a tonne of explosives strapped to her body.
Her deathly convicted expression immediately shocked Kelly and Ebby.
