The more Mrs. Don looked at Viola, the more she liked Viola.
"You are a good child! I'm sorry to let you wronged! I thought you can live a good life in the Don family. However, you've been shabbily treated. It's my fault. I can do nothing for you. I fail to protect you. Even if we both die today, we can't let her succeed."
After Mrs. Don finished speaking, she glared at Nicole.
Nicole looked at them and smiled mockingly.
"What a touching affection between you two! Viola, you don't need to pretend to be innocent in front of me. I know you better than anyone else. If you want to die with the Don family today, I'll let you have it."
As she spoke, Nicole motioned several bodyguards in black to come over.
"Mrs. Green!"
"Take them away! Remember, don't let them kill themselves. Otherwise we would be held responsible."
"Yes!"
Viola panicked when the bodyguards were about to walk to them.
"Samuel, aren't you going to stop Nicole? She is out of control. As your wife, what she does will put the Greens in trouble as well. The Greens, your grandma and your children, do you want to put them in danger? Are you going to ruin your family for Nicole's impulsiveness?"
Viola felt that Samuel was insane.
Samuel remained silent and watched, showing no sign of stopping Nicole. Was he going to sit and watch her destroy the Dons?
Samuel sneered and said, "Nicole is my wife. She can do whatever she wants. As her husband, the best thing I can do for her is to support and help her. Let alone the Greens, even if she wants the stars in the sky, I will find a way to get them for her. Now it's just the Dons. I don't mind doing it at all."
Mrs. Don was exasperated by her defiant speech and almost fainted.
She began to cough violently. And Viola hurriedly patted her back to calm her down.
"Grandma, don't be angry. Don't scare me!"
Viola said with her eyes red and teary.
Nicole was touched by Samuel's support. After giving him a soulful look, she said to Mrs. Don, "Let me say that again. I want to see Zoe. If you agree, I will leave immediately with her. And I promise I will never be against the Dons again."
"I don't know what you're talking about. Nicole, how could you barge into our house and ask your husband to snatch business with the Dons? Do you think you can cover up the sky? If I die, will you and the Greens get off the hook?"
Mrs. Don had thrown caution to the wind.
Anyway, she had to make Nicole suffer as well.
As Mrs. Don was resolute, Nicole hesitated for a moment.
Should she break in?
But if she didn't do so, she wouldn't see Zoe, who probably was in danger.
Nicole was hesitant and in a dilemma.
Suddenly, Samuel put his hands around Nicole's waist from behind and said indifferently, "Mrs. Don, we won't stop you from committing suicide. We must see Zoe today. Sorry, I'm gonna ask my people to barge in and search for her!"
"How dare you!"
Mrs. Don cared about nothing but her family's dignity.
If she failed to prevent Samuel from breaking into the Don's, the family would be disgraced. The family's long-standing and good reputation would be in tatters.
Just as the situation was deadlocked, Jason hastened back.
"What's going on? Nicole, Samuel, we're family. What are you doing? Why don't we sit down and talk it through?"
Mrs. Don became confident again as Jason returned.
"Jason, they want my dead. They try to break in! Nicole, who you see as a good niece and manage to protect, comes to the Don's trying to kill me! You keep saying that she is kind and that she would not hurt the Dons. What is she doing now? Can you tell me?"
Mrs. Don began to make a scene, not caring about being despised at all.
Jason was upset by Mrs. Don's cry. He whispered, "Mom, stop crying. There might be a misunderstanding."
"Uncle, there is no misunderstanding. Nicole comes here with people recklessly. She rebukes us for bringing shame on the Dons and insists on searching the building. How can we allow her to do so? We are in a legal society now. She is flouting the law!"
Viola also fanned the flames.
Nicole and Samuel remained silent, watching them acting.
Jason was shocked at Nicole and Samuel for a moment.
"Nicole, Samuel, why are you here? You must not come to visit my mother, right?"
"Mr. Jason, don't you know what we want?"
Perhaps it was because Jason's gaze was too cold, or she realized the seriousness of the matter, Mrs. Don finally said, "We are innocent! Don't believe them! Their allegation is unfounded. What if they accuse us of killing or committing arson?"
Nicole was furious and wanted to refute her, but she was stopped by Samuel.
Samuel said coldly, "Mrs. Don, seeing is believing. Since you are innocent, I advise you to allow us to search the house. My people saw that car drove into the Don's backyard. If there is nothing there, I will apologize. You can do whatever you want. If it turns out we are right, Mr. Jason, I hope you will give us a reasonable explanation. My daughter, who is recovering from an operation, is still weak. If anything happens to her, I won't let you off! I'm not afraid of you even if you sue us in Capital City!"
As soon as Samuel finished speaking, Jason trembled.
He knew well how high Nicole and Samuel valued their children.
Last time, Nicole had lost a child due to Mrs. Don's medicine. If the Dons indeed kidnapped Zoe, Samuel would never let them get away with it.
However, before Jason spoke out, Mrs. Don interrupted.
"Look, this is the Don's. And you can't search it as you wish. The Dons sacrificed so much for the country. It is not a place where you can be impudent!"
"I agree you to search the house!"
Jason ignored Mrs. Don and agreed directly.
Mrs. Don looked at Jason in astonishment and shouted, "Jason, you are an unfilial son! You must be out of your mind! Do you know what you're saying?"
She began to beat Jason with her stick.
Viola felt uneasy. She hurriedly said, "Uncle, we can search the courtyard on our own. If we allow them to go in and search, we will bring disgrace on the Dons. After all, we are a family of good reputation. Others will despise us if they know it. They will say that we are afraid of the Greens!"
"Did you hear that? You, the head of the Dons, don't even know what Viola knows. Jason, are you crazy?"
Mrs. Don wished she could open Jason's brain with a stick. She failed to figure out what he was thinking.
Jason looked at them coldly and whispered, "Given you have nothing to do with the matter, why are you so nervous? Why don't you allow them to go in? We don't have any strangers here. Others can only know it from the Dons or the Greens. What are you afraid of? Or, is what Nicole and Samuel said true? Did you indeed kidnap Zoe?"
Mrs. Don was surprised at Jason's question.
"What nonsense are you talking about? How can we kidnap a child? As you know, I just woke up from an unconsciousness. I'm not a deity, who is able to kidnap a child when being in a coma. OK?"
"What about you?"
Jason looked at Viola, causing her to shiver involuntarily.
