"She's here to save you. Fortunately, she was here just now. Otherwise, our people would have been injured by the infrared rays."
Nicole hated Laurel, but she didn't take any of her credit.
Laurel did not say anything. She looked at Samuel with warm eyes. Samuel had sensed this kind of warmth before. It was the way Laurel treated him when he was young. However, times had changed. Now that he saw such a gaze, he was unable to bear it.
Samuel turned his head away and whispered, "The shutdown of the infrared system will let Major know that something has happened here. He locked me up and didn't want Leo to know, so he might come by himself. Although we don't have many people right now, if we blindside, it will be possible to succeed."
"You want to use yourself as bait?"
Nicole understood what Samuel meant.
"Right."
Samuel did not hide it.
"We must capture Major. This is an opportunity. After capture Major, we will extradite him back home. On the other hand, we will have someone send a message that Leo harmed Major to cause an internal conflict between Jayden and Leo."
This was Samuel's idea
Nicole frowned slightly.
"Jayden and Leo have worked together for so many years. They might not fall for it. Our plan to sow discord may not succeed."
"What if I were to deliver this message?"
Laurel suddenly said.
Samuel and Nicole were stunned for a moment.
"You?"
"Yes, I am both Leo and Jayden's people. They know my current situation. I can't return to your side. Otherwise, what awaits me is a dead end. Therefore, I can only rely on them to live. If I were to find Jayden after escaping from Leo, Jayden might believe it. However, if Major is still alive, Jayden probably won't fight with Leo immediately. After all, Major is his only son, so he will definitely save Major first."
Laurel analyzed.
After Nicole and Samuel arrived here, they blocked the signal, so they didn't receive the report on whether Jarrod was Jayden's biological son. Now that they heard Laurel's words, Samuel frowned slightly.
"Is Jarrod not Jayden's biological son?"
"No, he was the child of Alice and a guard of Jayden's. At that time, Jayden couldn't let Alice give birth to his kid. However, he needed a stick to beat Alice with. That was why he drugged Alice, asked his guards to have sex with her, thus she gave birth to Jarrod. Originally, he thought that Alice would tell him the secret of the entrance for the sake of the child, but he didn't expect that in Alice's heart, the clansmen were more important than him and the child, so Jayden was very angry. At that time, when Alice escaped and was sent to the Green family, Jayden planned to kill Jarrod. But thinking about it, he felt hateful, so he kept him alive and used him to practice the bug techniques. He reported this matter to Leo, and I saw the report. "
Laurel told Samuel and Nicole what she knew.
Samuel was really pissed off.
This Jayden deserved to die!
However, what Laurel said was correct. If Major did not die, Jayden might not go against Leo, but it was too late to ask for help.
The saying goes that generals can improvise while the king is not available.
Moreover, Major's crime was heinous, and even if he was killed on the spot, there would be nothing wrong with it.
Thinking of this, Samuel nodded.
"Let's do it like this. Nicole, you have to be careful later."
"Alright."
After Nicole and Samuel discussed their plans, they began to move.
Sure enough, Major received the news.
"Mr. Major, the infrared system in the northern suburbs has been shut down."
Major's eyes narrowed.
"Do you know whose people did it?"
"They don't seem to be from the palace. We are monitoring all the king's people. They had no moves. The people in the other palaces are also doing well. Santino and Zayn are both at the state banquet. Princess Inez and Davon are in the room. They probably won't come out until a while later. Princess Sienna is being monitored by our forces and she didn't make any moves."
Hearing his people's words, Major guessed that it was Nicole.
"What a Nicole. I underestimated her. Without Zayn's help, she actually has other aid? Let's go and see what her aid is. At the same time, wipe out the forces behind her."
Major said confidently.
The guard was a little worried.
"Mr. Major, if we leave the state banquet like this, I'm afraid the king will be angry."
"Go tell the king that my father wants me back. No matter what, he needs my father's financial resources to support military research in the country."
"Yes."
The guard quickly left.
Major quietly put down his glass and left without anyone paying attention.
Although Santino and Zayn were drinking, all of their people kept an eye on Major. Seeing that Major had left, Santino signaled his people to follow Major with his eyes.
Nicole immediately knew what Samuel was going to do.
"Where do you plan to put this?"
"The place where Yanice is imprisoned is a good place. It's also Leo's territory. If Major died there, even Jayden would believe it."
Samuel's words were accepted by Laurel.
"That's right. That place is Leo's. No one is allowed to approach it without the orders of the king. Even Jayden is not allowed to do so. Therefore, that place is absolutely safe. It will convince Jayden."
Hearing Laurel say the same thing, Nicole felt relieved.
"So that place is Major's burial ground?"
"Yeah, are there any snipers in here?"
Samuel asked, but no one answered, which meant that there weren't.
"I'll do it!"
Nicole said indifferently.
She was somewhat exhausted. Even if Major arrived there, she might not be able to participate in the battle. However, she was a Don and the matriarch of the Green family. Under such circumstances, she would definitely not allow herself to sit and watch.
Now, as a sniper, she had to take the lead to find a good spot, set up the scene, and then quietly wait for the best opportunity for a fatal blow.
In this way, her physical strength would recover and she would be relatively safe.
Samuel knew that Nicole's considerations were correct, and that she would drain her strength when completing this mission, so he felt heartache but had no other choice.
Nicole was not a delicate woman. She was a Don, a Shaw, and the matriarch of the Green family. She would not allow him to feel sorry for her for what she was gonna do.
Her merits were bound to be recorded in history with him.
Samuel looked at Nicole and said worriedly, "Pay more attention to your safety. It's better to find more spots for sniping. The spot you can think of will definitely be on Major's mind. We don't know if there are any snipers among his people, so you'd better find a spot that isn't easy to discover to protect yourself. Nicole, I know that you are not a weak person, but remember, you are the last protection of all of us, so you must take care of yourself. "
"I know."
Nicole nodded. She wanted to leave, but Samuel held her in his arms.
His arms were tightly wrapped around Nicole, and a reluctant voice sounded in her ears.
"I can't bear to see you suffer, but I know you have to do it now. Nicole, I'm proud to have a wife like you. I look forward to our return and receiving the prize together. Do you understand what I mean?"
