Chapter 841 Aren&##x27;t You Afraid of Karma

"So it was you! No wonder he survived! So you've been on guard against me since then?"

Martha's words irritated Audrey.

"How come you talk about it as if you've done nothing wrong? Aren't you ashamed of yourself?"

"Ashamed? Why should I be ashamed of myself? He has never treated me like his daughter after he
retired from the military service. Although he hasn't hurt me, I remember the way he looked at me. I've
once hoped that he could give me a little bit of warmth, but he didn't even hug me once. He didn't even
let me take his surname, Shaw. Do you know how cruel that meant to me then?"

Martha said angrily. It seemed that after so many years, she still couldn't let it go.

Audrey was so furious that she laughed.

"If you thought that way as a child, it would be understandable because you were still too young. But if
you keep thinking that way until today, you will end up nowhere your whole life. I don't want to waste
more time on you. To put it simply, you deserve such an ending. You will be punished by the law."

"You think you can stop me? If I mobilize my resources, I'm afraid you won't be able to hide me inside
your home."

Martha was quite confident in the situation.

Audrey sneered, "Maybe you are powerful, but have you ever heard of the saying that the good shall
prevail over the evil? How long do you think you can still get away with it? I've promised mom that as
long as you don't do anything illegal, I won't hurt you. However, if you collude with your biological father
to commit crimes, I won't just sit watching. Did you forget my job before?"

"You retired, didn't you?"



"Yes, I did. But I still have connections, consciences, and loyalty to my country! I am a member of the
Shaw family. My father has served the country diligently, and I will not disappoint him. He called me
and told me everything before you guys came here. Martha, you really have great patience. You've
been hiding in the Seapolis City for so many years to protect your father, the terrorist, haven't you? You
can sacrifice your marriage, your son, and even your life for him, but you know what? Your father didn't
want to take you abroad with him. Laurel contacted not only you, but also your father the moment she
was released. Right now, she is rushing to the airport, because your father told her so. But he didn't
even leave you a message, did he? Your father has abandoned you and left you here. Your people
outside won't get any more help from him. You can't get out now."

Martha's face immediately turned pale as she heard Audrey's words.

"Nonsense! That's impossible!"

"Nonsense? Do you really think that's nonsense? When you removed mom's breathing tube for your
father, did you ever think that one day he would abandon you? No. To be exact, he has never taken
you as his daughter. He was just using you as a scapegoat."

"Stop it! I don't believe you! I don't believe any word of you!"

Martha immediately got emotional.

She struggled hard. Just when Nicole thought that Martha could not get away with the rope, she
suddenly untied the ropes and even rushed towards Nicole in no time.

"Nicole, be careful!"

Audrey's heart was in her mouth.



Although Nicole was surprised by Martha's agility and speed, she managed to counterattack and
defend herself subconsciously. She quickly retreated after fighting hand to hand with Martha shortly.

This was simply too surprising and shocking to Nicole.

Martha, who looked sickly, was actually so agile.

Nicole had no time for anything else, because Martha was already running towards the window.

"Stop!"

Just as Nicole wanted to chase after Martha, Audrey stopped her.

"Let her go. She won't be able to escape."

"Mom ..."

Before Nicole could finish her sentence, she saw Martha jump out and then there was a huge sound. It
startled Nicole, so she hurried to the window to have a look. She then saw that Samuel had already put
Martha down with his men.

Behind Samuel stood dozens of soldiers.

Tears instantly welled up in Nicole's eyes.

"Samuel!"

"Are you all right?"

Samuel looked at her from outside the window with concern.

Nicole hurried to shake her head.



Martha was still struggling, "Let go of me! You guys let go of me! Do you know who my father is? He's
..."

"Mom ..."

Before Martha could finish her words, Tim showed up.

Martha was stunned when she saw Tim.

"Why are you here? Aren't you supposed to be in Nord?"

"To deliver you messages in Nord?"

Tim looked at Martha in disappointment, his heart aching.

"Why? Why you? My mother. You've been in a sanatorium for so many years, because you were hurt
by my father and got frightened when I almost died in the fire. Right? Why are you a terrorist now?
Why? Tell me why!"

Tim cried in pain.

Martha looked at her son and suddenly said viciously, "You are just like your useless father! Both of you
are burdens on me! I thought you were a good son, but you've betrayed me behind my back and joined
those who are against me? Tim, aren't you afraid of karma?"

"I'm! But I'm even more afraid that I'd bring shame onto the military uniform I used to wear! I'm afraid
that the conscience stirs. If you hadn't sent me to the army in the beginning, perhaps I would have
listened to you and done something wrong for you. But I was once a soldier, and will be one all my life!
Mom, our country comes before our home. I can't sit by and watch you make mistakes again and
again, and I can't watch you destroy everything just for a draft. Ever since Kemp from the Dungeon



tried to ask Samuel for the draft, I had come to realize that things were not going to be easy. But I didn't
expect that you were involved in the case. Do you know how sad I am?"

Tim did not want to believe that all of this was true, but he had no other choice.

Hearing Tim's words, Martha said angrily, "You bastard! If I knew you would do this to me after you
grow up, I should have killed you when you were a baby, or leave you die in that fire back then! I was
too naïve to let that bitch, Nicole, get in and save you. But what are you giving me in return! Arresting
me? You think you're a grown-up now? When everyone is against me, you choose to join them instead
of helping me. You're still obsessed with Nicole, aren't you? Let me tell you this. It's impossible between
you and her forever! Impossible!"

Martha was so angry that she did not realize what she had just said, but Tim immediately froze with
shock.

"What did you say? You are the one who had someone set that fire back then?"

"I sure did! I must have an excuse then, otherwise how could I be sent to the sanatorium? How could I
divert everyone's attention? I promised my father that I would make great achievements. How could I
succeed without giving up something?"

"But I am your son by blood! Have you ever thought about my feelings at that time? Have you ever
thought that Nicole and I might both die if she couldn't find and save me then!"

"What does that have to do with me? As long as I can achieve my goal, I don't care anything else!"

Martha's words were like a sharp dagger directly piercing into Tim's heart, leaving a wound dripping
with blood.

Tim finally realized that he was nothing to his mother, Martha.



Tim suddenly laughed.

He laughed so hard that tears welled up in his eyes.

"So that's why you don't like Maia? So it's not because Maia is not a good match, but because I mean
nothing to you! Why did you ever give birth to me if you don't like me at all?"

"You think I had a choice? I gave birth to you because I needed to force your father to marry me. What
could I do? You're just a stepping stone to my mission. I don't care if you're my son or not. I even killed
my mother, let alone you? Stop crying like you care about me. If you really care about me, you would
not bring people here to catch me. Tim, I've really underestimated you."

Martha was so angry that her eyes turned red.

Tim, on the other side, was almost unable to bear it anymore.

He finally knew how Jacob felt when he found out that Bella had betrayed him.

So this was the feeling of being hurt by the closest person. It was so painful and heartbreaking.

Nicole had already got out of the room, and Samuel took her into his embrace. She couldn't help but
feel a little sorry for Tim when she saw him in shock.

"Tim ..."

"Leave him alone. He'll be fine."

Samuel stopped Nicole.

Tim had his pride. How could he bear being seen in a difficult position by others now?



He thought that he was helping the country hunt down terrorists, but didn't expect that the target was
his mother. Tim simply found it too ridiculous and ironic.

"Tim, if you still want me to see you as my son, take me away with you. These people will definitely
listen to you, right? Tell them to let me go! I'll take you abroad to your grandfather. He is very powerful
abroad. With your skills, you will soon gain his recognition as long as you listen to him."

Martha was like a drowning person clutching at a straw.

Tim looked at his mother, whom he had been cared about for more than ten years. Now he found her
like a stranger... A complete stranger.

As he looked at Martha, the light of hope in his eyes gradually dimmed.

"Tim! Tim!"

Martha shouted at Tim, but he closed his eyes. He then waved his hand and let others take Martha
away.

Tim looked at Nicole and Samuel. He moved his lips and finally said with a bitter smile, "I guess it's too
late even if I say sorry now."

"Tim, don't say that. You're a victim. You ..."

Nicole was kind in nature and felt sorry for him.

Tim smiled bitterly and said, "You're trying to make me feel better. I know. Leave things here to the
military. I'll go back home and see if she has left anything there. Good bye."

After finishing speaking, he turned around and left, looking extremely lonely and sad.

Samuel held Nicole's hand tightly and said in a low voice, "Do you know that you freaked me out?"



"I'm sorry. I just want to see my mother!"

Nicole suddenly remembered Audrey. She immediately turned her head over, only to find that Audrey
had disappeared from the place she was sitting.
