Samuel wanted to go in to see Zoe, but the phone rang at this moment.
In order not to affect Zoe's rest, Samuel walked out with his mobile phone.
“What's up?"
It was Jacob who made the phone call.
Jacob said in a low voice, "Mr. Green, there is news of Riley.”
"Where is she?"
Samuel became nervous all over.
"As long as we find Riley, we will find Lucas, right?
But Jacob did not answer for a long time.
"Jacob!"
Samuel felt that he was going crazy and couldn't help but let out a low growl. In fact, he was already a
little disturbed.
Jacob knew that he couldn't hide after all, and whispered, "She was found at sea, but she is dead
already, and the corpse has soaked for so long that it almost can't be recognized."
"What did you say? What about Lucas? Where is he?"
Samuel didn't care about Riley's life or death. He only cared about Lucas' whereabouts.
Jacob bit his lower lip and said, "There is no news about Master Lucas. When we found Riley, she was
the alone. The forensic doctors found a large amount of methamphetamine in her body and that she
died of overdose. Then her corpse was thrown to the sea."
"Who injected her the drugs? Who provided her with the shelter? Have you found out?"
Samuel felt an anger lingering in his chest, but it seemed as if he had hit the cotton with a punch, very
weak and suffocated.
He thought that if they found Riley, they would be able to find Lucas, but now that Riley was dead,
there was no news of Lucas at all.
Where was his son?
Jacob couldn't bear Samuel's current anger, but he still dutifully reported, “I found it. It's a nightclub
called the Golden Queen. The owner of this nightclub is an outsider and his identity is unknown, but
someone saw Zama go in and out there.”
"Zama, Zama again! About my nurse, why did I never know she is so capable? She actually has
something to do with underground trading. Just cut the crap. I just want to know if you get the
whereabouts of Zama."
"Not yet. It has been verified that Petty is not the Don Family's child. She has always thought that she
is the illegitimate daughter of the Don family since she was a child. Now she knows that she is not, so
she is mentally stimulated and a little abnormal. Zac died in order to save Petty."
"The life and death of these people has nothing to do with me. I just want to know where my wife Nicole
is and where my son Lucas is!"
Samuel let out a low growl, and then remembered that he was in the hospital. Then he lowered his
voice and said, "Find Zama at all costs."
"Yes, sir!"
After hanging up the phone, Samuel felt that the position in his heart was empty, and he was aching
fiercely.
His most important families were now hurt like this by his nurse.
What did Petty mean?
Why did she say she would never see Nicole again in her life?
Samuel couldn't understand.
Now it seemed that the key was to find Zama.
Zama had been in the Seapolis City and Green Family's house for more than 20 years. She looked like
a weak and delicate woman with honesty who usually didn't participate in anything. It was not expected
that she had such a big foundation in the Seapolis City for so many years.
Naturally, it could not ordinary people who could be involved in underground trading.
Samuel felt that he had lived in vain all these years.
Being watched and kept an eye on by such a woman all the time, it was really not easy for him and
Vincent to grow up.
Did the old lady Laurel know the identity of Zama?
Thinking of this, Samuel quickly called his mother.
The old lady Laurel was illustrating. After seeing that Samuel made the phone call, she was somewhat
comforted. It seemed that this child still had his mother in his mind.
“Finally remember to call me?”
Laurel was in a good mood.
Samuel asked in a low voice, "Mom, do you know who Zama is?"
"What do you mean? Why do you suddenly ask?"
Laurel was shocked and asked subconsciously.
Samuel said, "She has made some trouble recently and is involved in some forces. She may be related
with underground organizations. What has she done in our family for so many years? Has she used the
relationship of our family to seek something for herself? Mom, why on earth do you believe in her?
Were you good friends before? I remember she was a countrywoman. Driven to despair, she came to
the Seapolis City. She was taken in by you and dad and entered the Green Family. She seems to have
been conscientious for so many years, but who would have thought that she is so sinister and
pernicious?"
"Shut up! You can't talk about her like this! I don’t know what she is like somewhere else for so many
years, but in the Green family, she has tried her best to treat you and Vincent. How can you be so
ungrateful?"
Laurel's bias towards Zama made Samuel a little angry.
"Mom, you know? She kidnapped Nicole, kidnapped my son, and now their life or death remains
unknown. Although Riley did everything, she is dead of drugs. I even think that for many years, Riley
was her gun in the Green Family. This woman is too insidious. Joseph was found to have been
poisoned some time ago, which has been two years. If Nicole hadn't noticed it early, there might have
not been any heirs of the Green Family. Even
so, are you still partial to her side?"
"That's impossible! Even if anyone would strike at the Green Family's heirs, Zama would not!"
"Why? Why would she not? The Green Family is not her home! Such a woman has no conscience at
all! If it weren't for her, who could have quietly poisoned Joseph? Who could have kidnapped Nicole
and Lucas under my nose? Mom, what is the relationship between you and her? Why do you take her
side like this? What kind of background does she have, can you tell me? My son and wife are now in
her hands. I can't afford to delay anymore, mom!"
Samuel was about to kneel down to Laurel.
Laurel was a little flustered, but she whispered: "This issue is definitely not like what you think. Samuel,
listen to mom, I will find someone to investigate this matter. Lucas is your son, and if it is true he was
kidnapped by Zama, she wouldn't do anything to him. You know best how Zama has
treated you all these years, don't you?"
"I dont know! She used to be nice to me probably because I am the head of the Green Family, and she
still needed me to be her protective umbrella.
But now she has shed all pretences of cordiality and kidnapped my wife and my son. Are you still here
to tell me that she is kind to me? Mom, it’s okay if you don't tell me. I will investigate it by myself, but if I
find out her whereabouts, if there is anything wrong with my son and my wife, I will let her pay with her
life!"
"No! Samuel, you can't!"
Laurel was a little anxious, but Samuel hung up the phone.
Why?
Why was Laurel so partial to Zama’s side?
What relationship on earth was there between them?
Samuel never thought that his mother was a person who could not tell wrong from right. Even if she
didn't like Nicole and Lucas, they belonged to the Green Family after all.
How could she ignore the life and death of the Green Family members for a servant?
The more Laurel was partial to Zama, the more Samuel was confused, and the more he wanted to dig
out all the unknown background of Zama.
What on earth was the background of that woman?
He was upset and irritated, and wanted to have a smoke to alleviate it, but he remembered he was in
the hospital, and maybe Zoe couldn't stand the tobacco smell on his body.
Now he had Zoe only.
Samuel packed the cigarette and saw a woman approaching him.
"Are you Mr. Green? Our old lady invites you to have a cup of coffee."
Samuel frowned slightly.
"Who is she?"
"The old lady Rachel of the Brook Family.”
Hearing the woman's words, Samuel hesitated, but remembering the kindness of the Brook Family to
Nicole and his two children, Samuel went to the cafe across the street.
Although Rachel was very old, she was still vigorous. She smiled slightly when she saw Samuel, with
much elegance.
"Mrs. Brook, I don't know why you invited me?”
Although it was the first time that Samuel had seen Rachel, he could see something in Rachel's eyes.
She was different with Allen.
Maybe Allen helped Nicole and Lucas just because of the feelings, but obviously Rachel didn’t plan to
let the five years’ help be in vain.
Samuel sat down in front of Rachel.
Looking at Samuel in front of her, Rachel felt that he indeed was a rare rival. If the Brook Family and
the Green Family fought to death with each other,
it remained uncertain who would be the winner.
She had heard of Samuel's name and had done investigations, so she dared to date him out.
"Have you seen your daughter?"
"Yes, thanks for the care of the Brook Family over the past five years."
Samuel said lightly.
Rachel drank the coffee in front of her and whispered, "Mr. Green, to be honest, the Brook Family is not
short of money, but we don't want to raise children for others."
"Mrs. Brook can just say anything. As long as I can, I will do it.”
Samuel didn't have any emotional reaction, which made Rachel admire him even more, so she also
secretly decided not to be an enemy of the Green Family.
"Since you are so straightforward, I will speak frankly. Mr. Green, as you know, Allen cares much about
your wife Nicole. In the past five years, Allen
has rejected all proposals for Nicole. Although our Brook Family does not need to depend on the
connections through marriages to consolidate our position, not everyone can enter the gate of the
Brook Family."
"Nicole has always been the hostess of the Green Family. As for the Brook Family, she is not supposed
to enter!"
Samuel said with coldness.
Rachel did not expect that Samuel would not care about her feelings at all. She coughed to conceal her
gaffe, and then said, "Yes, Miss Bush is so sensible that she has never had any excessive behavior
with Allen over the past five years, which I appreciate very much."
"The hostess of the Green Family always knows where to stop. Mrs. Brook, please call her Mrs. Green!
Although her face has changed, her identity remains the same. If necessary, I will remarry her."
Samuel's argument in every detail would definitely let Mrs. Brook see that he really cared about Nicole
and would never let her go.
Such a result made Mrs. Brook feel a little relieved.
"This time Mrs. Green didn't come to the US, right?"
"No, because she has something to deal with. Besides, she would be somewhat embarrassed to see
Allen here, no? I heard that she had refused the Brook Family's proposal not long ago."
Samuel really didn't care about Mrs. Brook's feelings, even though Mrs. Brook were better cultured, she
couldn't help but get a little angry now.
