“Yes! I promise you!”
Xander spoke solemnly, which caused Nicole to freeze for a moment.
Neither the people from the military, Samuel, Tim, nor Olivia, could find Jacob, but now Xander said so firmly that he could find him, making Nicole feel puzzled.
“Dad, is there something you’re hiding from me and Mom?”
“It’s for your own good that Dad doesn’t say anything. You’ll know it when it’s time. Just listen to me, no matter what happens in the future, don’t force your way out, understand?”
Xander’s advice made Nicole somewhat unable to agree.
She had too many responsibilities to bear, so naturally, she couldn’t agree with it. But looking at Xander’s expectant eyes, she still nodded slightly.
The two talked a lot more, and finally, Nicole fell asleep unconsciously.
Xander felt reluctant looking at Nicole’s sleeping.
“Silly girl, there are many things in this world that are not as simple as you think. With Samuel by your side to protect you, and the kids by your side to keep you company, I have nothing to worry about. I only hope that your future life will be better and better. May God bless you.”
After that, Xander draped his jacket over Nicole’s body and leaned down to give her a kiss on the forehead before turning around and walking out.
It was dark outside, but in Xander’s eyes there seemed to be a red glow suddenly.
That glowing was indeed frightening, and it was precisely the same as when Laurence went berserk!
As soon as his eyes glowed, there were a few howls in the darkness, and several black shadows leapt out instantly, standing in front of Xander in unison.
Looking closely, those people all had traces of animals on their bodies.
They were mutants!
Xander said icily, “Gather our men and get back to the Capital City before dawn!”
“Yes!”
The few black shadows quickly left.
Xander’s eyes restored gradually, and then he quickly drove back to his residence.
Audrey was still sleeping, raising the corners of her lips like she had a sweet dream.
Perhaps she was thinking about where to go after Xander retired, or maybe it was because her wish of so many years had finally come true, so even her dreams were beautiful.
Xander felt guilty looking at Audrey’s happy look.
“Audrey, I’m sorry I can’t accompany you all the way. In the future, you have to be strong without me by your side. I know that all you want in your life is love, but apart from love, we are still children and parents. We can’t be so selfish, right?”

The book is slow....too many words are wasted to explain...need a better translator.......

Does the author have write the full names of the characters all the time...it's annoying...we are reading the book, we know their surnames already.......
What is it with Chinese authors. The characters are slow, he finally opened his mouth, it took him so long just to say two words...the house keeper would have put the person out before he even spoke....is this really how people are over there..the characters are always lost in thought, they might as well live in their heads.....
