Chapter 266: Give in for His Wife and Children

Nicole tried to turn away, but it was too late.



She could only lean back as far as she could, when suddenly she hit something.



In desperation, Nicole looked back and saw a barrel lying there, not knowing what was in it.



Nicole slipped in quickly and carefully closed the lid.



lt was very damp inside and a bit smelly. It seemed to have been there for a long time.



She frowned slightly, pinched her nose and tried to keep her breathing as quiet as possible.



The footsteps came closer and the voice was more clearly.



Nicole's heart tightened at the familiar sound.





They were Zama and Petty!



Here they were hiding!



So, Macon was Zama's people?



No wonder Samuel looked all over the Seapolis City and could not find Zama and Petty, who turned out
to be hidden by Macon.



Nicole really admired Macon's ability.



It wasn't easy to hide under Samuel's eyes for so long.



Nicole remembered that Macon went to help find Lucas when Lucas was missing.



How dangerous it would be. If Macon had found Lucas at the beginning, she didn't know what would
happen to Lucas now.





Nicole was afraid, but glad to have Vincent's help in the dark.



"Zama, Macon said that Nicole had escaped’ Petty said as she walked, "Where could she hide in the
mountains?”



“I don't know, but this woman must die. If it weren't for her, I'd still be here with my son. Not only did she
tear my son and me apart, but she became the leader of the Night Elf Empire. What ability does she
have to be the leader of the Night Elf Empire?”



Zama said in a dismissive way.



Nicole always knew Zama didn't like her, but she always thought that Zama didn't like her because of
Samuel. However, that was not quite the case now.



Petty whispered, "Now will she contact the men of the Night Elf Empire to come here? Since she could
escape, it meant she had known Macon's means. It's a pity that we have worked so hard to control
Macon for so many years, but now he was found to be helping us. If Mr. Samuel knows about it, then...”



“He won't know. Didn't Macon say that he had already left? I hear that Zoe's going to have surgery in
the morning, and Samuel had to go back and saved her. An unlucky chick dared to have my son's



kidney? I won't let that happen. Did you arrange the doctor?" Zama said with a note of ferocity.



"Yes" Petty said immediately. "Once she's on the operation bed, she can't get off and she'll die of an
accident. Don't worry"



"Don't hurt my son!"



Zama's words shocked Nicole.



Zoe was in danger?



How crazy Zama was! She knew that Zoe was her granddaughter but she still wanted to kill her?



Nicole was anxious that she could do nothing.



What should she do?





Once he was in the operation room, Samuel would be anesthetized, and no one could stop him from
taking any risks.



Her daughter!



Her poor child!



Was Zama going to kill her like this?



Nicole couldn't help herself but hear Petty say, "Zama, Zoe is your granddaughter. Are you sure you
have to do so?”



"What granddaughter? She is just a sick girl. It will be all right if someone else can give her a kidney.
What's the use of keeping such a girl? But no one can match her kidney except for my son. Does it
make no difference if a person loses a kidney? I have lost one son; can I bear to see my other son
become a cripple? She should blame her mother for not giving her good health. Besides, have you
found out where Lucas is?"



"Not yet. Master Lucas seems to have vanished into thin air. Maybe something happened to him:





"Shit! Riley, that fool dares hurt my grandson! Lucas is the hope of the Green family. He is still young.
As long as I can keep him company and train him, he will be my best and most obedient grandson.
Whatever it takes, you have to find Lucas”



Zama's words made Nicole angry.



This old woman degraded Zoe as nothing, but because Lucas was a boy and young enough to control,
she wanted to control him. How vicious she was!



Zama and Petty walked past Nicole’s hidden barrel, and Nicole was scared out of breath.



By and by the sound of their footsteps died away as if they were going out, and Nicole dared to lift the
lid for a breath of fresh air.



How could she tell this about Samuel?



She couldn't stay here!





She couldn't hide here. And it was a matter of Zoe and Samuel's safety, she had to find some way to
get the news out, or to go back to the Seapolis City.



But how to get out?



She got out of the barrel and headed quickly toward Petty and Zama’s direction.



That was where they lived temporarily. She didn’t know whether should could find anything.



There was no one to guard here. Macon seemed pretty confident that no one would find here, so he
would let off the guard.



When she went in, she found a hole in the cave.



The two small caves were joined together and arranged like bedrooms. There was literally everything in
there, even food.





The food here was not very nutritious or fresh, except for some noodles and compressed biscuits, and
mineral water was held in those big buckets.



Nicole quickly took some biscuits and put them in her pocket.



She didn’t bring anything out when she escaped. For fear of starving, she might as well take some food
here.



Nicole looked around and realized that there was a laptop here.



The signal was blocked by Macon. If she used their Intranet to send messages, would it be detected?



Nicole didn’t know much about computers.



Now she wished Lucas was here. If Lucas were here, he would have a way.

Nicole finally stopped doing that.





She scoured the place, but she couldn't find any clues or anything, so Nicole had to run out of the room
fast for fear that Petty and Zama would come back.



But, as luck would have it, footsteps were heard outside again.



Nicole couldn't escape out now and was about to meet the men outside. At this time, her back hit the
wall and, for some reason, she felt a faint warmth.



The warmth was as if a kind of wooden warmth.



Nicole frowned slightly, turned and touched the wall. There was a door here.



Without thinking, she pushed the door open and went in.



When she entered, Nicole froze.



It was full of iron cages, and the iron cages contained many women, some were old, some were young.
Now they were all asleep.





Nicole was surprised, but quickly calmed down.



She remembered being trafficked.



It was indeed related to Zama!



What was Zama doing bringing these people here? Traffic them abroad?



Nicole had a hard time watching them locked up like piglets in an iron cage.



The scene of being trafficked came back to her mind.



She knew better than anyone what these people would face when they were trafficked.



Nicole quickly opened the cage and splashed them with cold water.





“Who are you?"



The women were frightened, but did not dare to speak loudly. Nicole knew they were frightened by the
lacerations on them.



Nicole took a deep breath and said, “I've freed you from the cage. You can run out of here. This is an
island. There's sea a few hundred meters north of here. It's up to you whether you can get out or not’



The women were somewhat surprised and somewhat incredulous of what Nicole said, but they got up
and ran quickly out of the room.



If they had a chance to go home, they would risk for it.



Nicole remembered the sound of footsteps outside.



"Wait! Someone may be coming in. Don't go out for the moment. Just wait and see"





When the women heard Nicole's words, they stopped.



They now thought of Nicole as the leader and the backbone.



The sound of footsteps outside drew closer and Nicole was getting nervous.



She had no idea whether they would get out or not.



At last there were voices outside.



“Where are the Zama men?"



"They probably had gone out.”



There were two men, the man who tried to come in and catch Nicole in the wee hours of the morning.



She could recognize their voices.





Nicole's hands were pressed together, wondering if they would come in.



Then she heard a man say, “Look whether there's sign of Nicole here. If no, let's go. We couldn't afford
to offend Zama and Petty. If they knew we've been here, I don't know what we would end up with”



"The two women are so troublesome. I don't know why Macon listens to them.’ said another, shaking
his head and sighing.



"Haven't you heard of it? Macon's wife and children are under Zama's control, or else Macon would not
obey her’



Nicole was shocked.



Macon's wife and children were controlled by Zama?



No wonder he betrayed Samuel.





But that did not justify his complicity!



Another man sighed, “Ah, poor Macon. In the early days when he was in the army, he spent less time
with his wife. As a result, they were getting estranged, so his wife proposed a divorce and take away
the custody of the children. Macon felt sorry for his wife and agreed to divorce. Unexpectedly, when he
heard the news of his wife and children again, they were controlled by others. He is a tough man but he
is willing to give in for his wife and children.”



“Forget it. Just look for Nicole. We have gotten out of here. If we meet Zama that crazy woman, we
would be in trouble.” said the other man hurriedly.



The two men began to look in the cave.



Nicole was anxious...



Would they ever find their way here?
