My Captain Husband novel Chapter 17

When Timothy left the room, Charles looked at Noel and asked, "How's it going? Did you bring them back?"

Noel shook his head and said, "This girl is much more difficult to deal with than Lori. She didn't even bother to argue with me. She just acted like she was the one being reasonable. What should I do?" Noel couldn't find a reason to say that she was wrong. He just felt that his head was going to explode. He really didn't know what to do with her.

"Don't you have a son? It's easy." Charles thought that Lori was the most difficult one to deal with. She just wouldn't listen to anything he said.

Noel thought of his son. 'Well, now I don't only need to deal with the mother, but also need to worry about the son.' He then said to Charles, "You can go to prepare for the military exercise. After Timothy leaves, our deployment will have to change."

With a nod, Charles turned around and left his office. Noel let out a sigh and then sat on his chair, taking out his phone to look at the photos on it. He decided to finish the military exercise first and think about it when he came back.

Yvonne was happy that Noel had left. She was afraid of Noel, so it would be the best for him to just disappear.

Jacob was a little depressed. His father had disappeared all day long. He had to find a way to make his mother and father know more about each other.

Jacob was looking at the starry sky with his chin in his hand. His mommy was unwilling to go back to C City, and his father had no time to come here. What could he do?

"Honey, come in here. Time for bed." Yvonne was busy with her work in the bedroom, so she just called her son outside.

"Okay." Jacob replied obediently, but he seemed to hear the sound of a gun. Looking at the hillside not far away, he looked back at his mother who was still busy working and then carefully ran out of the house.

He had been in this hill since he knew how to climb it. Even if he went there in the middle of the night, he would not be afraid and could find a place to protect himself.

Noel rushed here from the military exercise site to carry out this mission. It was about a trade of rare animals. The dove flying away meant the beginning of the mission. Noel waved his hand to signal the soldiers behind him. Then they began to capture the criminals.

Jacob was crawling to a mountain ditch, grasping at the grass on the ground with his little hands excitedly. 'A gunfight, a real gunfight.' He thought.

In the fire, the bandit suddenly shouted, "There's a child here."

Jacob shrank his body, knowing that he had been discovered. He wondered if he should run away as soon as possible. He really just came to see what was happening.
