After King Ducasse left the Lucas family, Cecilia led her men away, but before leaving, she said something to Martha in a gentle voice.
"Martha, we still have a lot of time to spend together."
After saying this, Cecilia turned and left the hall.
Martha watched her leaving figure, her eyebrows were slightly frowned, her red lips were tightly pursed and she didn't speak.
Seeing Martha standing there without moving, Eve yelled while supporting Sam.
"Martha, come help us."
When Martha snapped out of it, she quickly responded and hurried over to support Sam.
She looked worriedly at Sam's pale face and asked with concern, "Sam, can you walk?"
"I can," replied Sam softly as he took small steps towards his room with the help of Martha and Eve.
Fifteen minutes later, the three arrived at Sam's room where they found medicine that had just been brought by the doctor, who was now attending to the old Mrs. Lucas.
The old Mrs. Lucas was overly sad and her condition worsened because of what happened to Gage, so the doctor was still in the old Mrs. Lucas' room trying to stabilize her condition.
After Martha helped Sam sit on the chair, Eve quickly disinfected, applied medicine and bandaged Sam.
During this process of applying medication on his wounds, Sam kept biting his lip but never cried out loud.
After seeing his sweating profusely, Martha said with some distress, "Sam, if you can't help it, just let it out."
"It's okay; I'm fine."
Sam replied with a pale face, and his voice was as gentle as ever.
After Eve finished bandaging Sam, Martha supported Sam so that the latter could be more comfortable on the bed.
Once everything was done, Marta looked gratefully at Sam who saved her life today.
"Thank you for saving me today , Sam. If not for you... I might have been more seriously injured."
After all, Gage's dagger was aimed at her heart.
If Sam hadn't protected her, she might be the one going to the emergency room now.
"As long as you're okay, it doesn't matter." He was glad that Elsie's only daughter survived.
This was Elsie's only daughter, and he hoped Martha could live well.
Sam's eyes darkened, suppressing the strange color in his eyes.
Eve, who was packing up next to her, smiled in relief when she heard this, and a relaxed voice sounded in the room-
"We finally got revenge for my sister. Now Martha can go back to her country and do what she wants."
"The matter of my sister has always been a heavy burden on my heart. Now that we've avenged her, I feel much lighter."
"Oh yeah, Martha. Let's find some time to pay respects to your mother and let her know that the killer has finally been caught."
Sam frowned when he heard these words, and finally couldn't help asking after a while.
"You always thought Gage killed Elsie?"
Eve paused in her movements and turned to look at Sam with a hint of confusion in her eyes.
"What do you mean by that?"
The next second, Martha's doubtful voice sounded, "Didn't he kill my mother?"
Sam endured the pain on his body and explained with difficulty, "No... you guys got it wrong... Gage was not the murderer of Elsie."
Martha and Eve looked at each other, both seeing shock in each other's eyes.
Soon, the two came back to their senses, looked at Sam with doubts on their faces, and asked questions in unison-
"If it wasn't him, then who killed Elsie?"
