She thought, ‘Arthur is here!‘

Zoya stared blankly at the figure not far away. Behind Arthur were military doctor Liam Waller, her parents‘ former comrades, and two rows of soldiers in military uniforms.
Those soldiers moved in perfect unison, their faces filled with solemnity.
The waiting hall suddenly fell silent. Everyone looked in surprise at the people in military uniforms.
Zoya’s eyes suddenly welled up.
She hadn’t wanted to cry, even when she was harassed and hit by the stun baton just now.
But at this moment, she wanted to cry.
She knew that Arthur and the soldiers from the military camp were here to send off her parents.
The airport security personnel all put down their stun batons and dared not make any further moves.
Seeing the soldiers before her, Zoya recalled her past as a soldier. She had once sworn not to commit illegal acts. d once sworn not to commit illegal acts.
Suppressing the hatred in her heart, she released her foot from Jasmine.
Breaking Jasmine’s ribs or even inflicting more serious injuries would temporarily vent her anger, but it wasn’t worth committing a crime for such a person.
Jasmine struggled to her feet and said bitterly, “Zoya, I’m going to sue you!”
“I’ll sue you first!” Eowyn rushed out from the side.
She said, “If it weren’t for you, how could Zoya have been surrounded by airport security, and even hit with a stun baton?”
“Stun baton?” Arthur’s face darkened, his gaze falling on the stun batons in the hands of the security personnel.
He said, “How dare you hit her with a stun baton? She is a martyr’s descendant. Her parents sacrificed their lives for the
country.
“She is a veteran who risked her life for the nation. How dare you do this to her?”
Arthur’s powerful voice, like a clap of thunder, left all the airport staff looking at each other in dismay.
They thought, A martyr’s descendant?
‘Could it be that the urn truly contains a martyr’s ashes?
“This woman is a veteran who risked her life for the country?‘
Instantly, the security personnel who had previously laid hands on Zoya all exchanged bewildered glances, looking utterly at a loss.
Jasmine was even greatly shocked.
She thought, ‘How is that possible? Zoya’s parents are actually martyrs? But Nicolas never mentioned it!‘
“Nicolas…” She turned to look at Nicolas standing beside her, only to find him staring blankly ahead.

Chapter 48
He was looking at Zoya.
It was as if, at that moment, his eyes only saw Zoya. He hadn’t even heard her call him just now.
A hint of jealousy and hatred flashed in Jasmine’s eyes.
Nicolas, at this moment, was even more shocked than everyone else.

Only now did he realize that what Zoya had said was actually true. Her parents were indeed martyrs who sacrificed their lives for their country.
He thought, ‘What kind of mood must Zoya have been in when she hoped I would accompany her to retrieve her parents‘ ashes?”
Thinking about what he did back then, Nicolas felt even more regretful.
He still remembered how his mother humiliated Zoya when she returned to the villa holding the urn, pointing at it and repeatedly calling it bad luck.
Zoya’s parents were martyrs who sacrificed their lives for the country, but even after death, they couldn’t enter her home.
Thinking of this, Nicolas regretted it so much he wanted to slap himself hard.
Jasmine could only force herself to say, “I found the urn she was holding suspicious, so I requested an inspection.

The Vice President of Cloud Airlines stated decisively, “Ms. Ingram is currently unfit to perform flight duties. Immediately assign another co–pilot to take over her position!”
“Understood someone replied from the side, quickly making a call to contact a replacement co–pilot.
Jasmine’s face turned pale, and she swayed unsteadily. If Nicolas hadn’t supported her, she would have fallen to the ground.
She thought, “No, I can’t let this happen.
A suspension will affect my future promotion.”
“What should I do? I can’t be suspended. Nicolas, help me!” Jasmine clutched Nicolas as if he were her last hope.
He looked at Jasmine before him.
She was once bright and proud, but now she had a pale face. Her eyes were filled with despair.
Nicolas couldn’t bear it. He stepped forward and said to Zoya, “Just forgive Jasmine this once. If she really gets grounded, it will have a huge impact on her.
“Besides, you just hit Jasmine, so you’ve had your revenge…”
Arthur looked displeased at Nicolas. “You and Zoya are already divorced. What right do you have to lecture her?”

Before he could continue, Zoya interrupted him, “Nicolas, I was just ganged up on and harassed, yet you didn’t say a word to help me.
“But if Jasmine has even the slightest issue, you always defend her. I’ve already told you, you have no right to speak to me
like this!”
“Zoya, for the sake of our three years of marriage, I beg you, just forgive Jasmine this once!” Nicolas said through gritted
teeth.
He knew Jasmine was in the wrong, but after all, Jasmine was his lifesaver. No matter what, he had to help Jasmine.
Zoya suddenly laughed, but tears welled up in her eyes. Her last shred of regret for Nicolas vanished at that moment.
She said, “If I hadn’t saved you after you were stabbed eight times and fell in the river back then, would you still be alive to say these things to my face?
“Nicolas, you truly are an asshole!”
