Chapter 1150 A Slap Is Not Enough

"This is..."

Nicole was shocked.

Claire laughed, as if it was not a big deal.

"What? Are you afraid?"

"No, I am not. It is just beyond my expectation."

Nicole pulled herself together, but it really astonished her.

She had never thought that Claire was planning on investigating Emory's superior through Night Elf
Empire!

So Claire suspected Emory's superior.

Thinking of it, Nicole was scared.

If Claire was right, then it was really formidable because many people were involved in it.

Claire did not push Nicole to do so. She just said indifferently, "Do it if you want to help. If not, just
forget it. I'll get the news from the black market."

"You will reveal yourself if you make a deal in the black market. Just leave it to me."

Nicole already calmed down.

Having been on the same side, Emory and Samuel shared common interests. What's more, Nicole
couldn't let Claire risk it.



Anyway, Major kept watching Samuel and Nicole, so it didn't matter whatever they did. It would be
better for them to take Claire out of it.

Hearing this, Claire became serious.

"Nicole, it is very dangerous."

Holding Nicole's hand, Claire said helplessly, "But you know, only the Night Elf Empire can make it now.
Emory is in the prison, and I can't do it by myself. I know you and Samuel are in troubles, but you can
do it for your own good. It really matters, so you must keep it only between us. Once you get the
evidence, Emory will be saved and some of your problems will be solved, too. "

"What? Do you know what our problem is?"

Claire gave a mysterious smile and didn't say anything else.

Samuel returned soon. He saw Nicole talking with Claire and said, "Are you done? If so, we'll go
home."

"Yes."

Nicole stood up, looked at Claire and whispered, "Take care."

"Don't worry. I will take care of myself and the children until Uncle Emory comes back."

Nicole was impressed by her determination.

Going outside with Samuel, Nicole said admiringly, "I really underestimated Claire."

Samuel smiled faintly.



"Emory and Claire have been married for years. Soldiers in the military all respect her so much. She
isn't that frail as she looks. It is just that Emory protects her so well that she doesn't need to do
anything. Claire is a woman who looks weak but, actually, is tough."

After hearing this, Nicole knew more about Claire.

Samuel and Nicole drove away from the military compound. Then Nicole suddenly said, "Drive to
Laurence's. I have something to tell him."

"Just call him. We don't have to go there."

Samuel said so because Nicole looked tired.

Nicole whispered, "It's almost New Year. Let's go over and take a look. Adela's parents are still there.
Laurence has worked hard for my Night Elf Empire for over half a year. I wonder if he has bought food
and clothes for New Year. He never says what he needs for his natural reserve. I can see that in his
world, there is nothing but work. So, as his boss, I should go visit him. Besides, Laurence is lonely. I
want to set him up with Cara. What do you think? "

"I think it is not appropriate for you to butt in on their relationship. Just let them be."

Although Samuel said this, he still listened to Nicole and drove to Laurence's.

Laurence asked Nicole for an advance on his salary and paid a down payment for a house for Adela's
parents to live in.

The house was in the villa district. More than 200 square meters, it was not big, with rooms on two
floors and a garden. But because of the elegant environment, it was expensive. Paying the mortgage,
Laurence got a meagre sum from his salary every month.

This villa district was not far from the Green's, so it didn't take long for Samuel to drive there.



They stopped on the way and bought some nutrients and clothes from the shopping mall.

Nicole and Samuel got off the car. Samuel was about to knock on the door when he heard a bang from
inside, followed by Cynthia's scream.

"Laurence, you bastard! Stay still!"

Nicole frowned because of the noise.

"What's going on?"

Nicole wanted to knock on the door, but Samuel stopped her.

He winked at Nicole and then easily opened the electronic door.

Nicole was stunned for a moment.

"Darling, how did you unlock it? You are great! If you lose your job, we can do the business."

Samuel was speechless, flicked on her forehead and whispered, "What are you talking about? Even if
the Green family is bankrupt, we don't have to do a business like this."

"So why do you learn the trade?"

Nicole touched her forehead unhappily.

Samuel smiled, "This is an electronic lock. Everything related to computer is easy for me to learn."

"I see."

Nicole was acting so cute that Samuel smiled again.

Cynthia's curse came again.



"Stay still! You bastard! Do you really think you're someone influential, because you are working for that
Nicole? Stay still! I told you to stay still!"

With that, the sound of the cracking whip came, which made Nicole so angry.

"It is too much!"

She walked in quickly.

Samuel was angry, too.

When they entered the house, they saw Laurence standing upright, with his upper body naked. Holding
the whip, Cynthia swung it at Laurence without any mercy.

There was blood on the whip.

Laurence's upper body was hurt badly. There were not only new wounds but also old ones, which
looked ghastly.

Nicole was furious at once.

"Stop it!"

Before Nicole could stop Cynthia, Samuel had stepped forward and kicked away the whip in her hand.

Cynthia cried out and stepped back in fear. However, when she saw it was Samuel, she became more
annoyed.

"Who do you think you are? I am just training my dog! It is none of your business!"

What a rude remark.



Laurence frowned and said to Nicole, "Mr. and Mrs. Green, just leave. I'll go find you later."

"Shut up! Look what you have suffered! Laurence, why haven't you ever told me about it?"

As Laurence looked desperate, Nicole felt so sorry for him.

She took the clothes and put it on Laurence.

"What are you doing?"

Cynthia suddenly rushed over and pushed Nicole away. She even threw Laurence's clothes and trod
on it.

"Do you think you will be my daughter with her face? Nicole, you still want to come here to seduce
Laurence, right? Listen! Even if Laurence dies, he has to be buried with Adela! Stay away from him,
you imposter. I think there's something between you two. Now it seems that it's true, or you wouldn't be
that sad when I beat Laurence. For me, he is just for experiment. He owes Adela a life. I don't think it is
too much for me to kill him, let alone to beat him!"

Cynthia was really inhumane.

Samuel was enraged immediately. The atmosphere in the room was so strained.

"Can't you see me here?"

Samuel's voice was not loud, but somehow Cynthia shivered. It was probably because she felt an
extreme cold aura from Samuel.

"Samuel, I thought you are a man! She hooks up with Laurence now. Don't you care?"

However, what she said was too unpleasant and she wouldn't stop talking.



So Nicole slapped her.

"For Adela's sake, we have been showing you some respect. But you really are a bitch."

Nicole's hand was numb for she slapped Cynthia with much strength.

"What did you do? How dare you slap me? You are now using my daughter's face! Laurence, what are
you doing? Are you sure you just stand there and do nothing? Didn't you promise Adela to take care of
us? That's how you take care of me. I know Adela is dead, so you don't have to keep that promise. I
knew it, my poor daughter!"

Cynthia sat on the ground and cried.

Laurence's face turned pale.

He felt he was about to fall.

He didn't understand why she cursed him like this, and even provoked him with Adela's death for all he
had done to the Miller family.

God knows how much he wished that he was the one who died, not Adela!

"Stop crying. I think a slap is not enough."

Nicole stepped forward angrily, but Laurence stopped her.

"Mrs. Green, she is Adela's mother."

Laurence said in a hoarse voice.

Nicole could see a hint of sorrow in his eyes. Laurence didn't care about the wounds but the curses.



Nicole felt helpless.

However, Samuel said coldly, "I don't know what Laurence promised you and why you treat him like
this. But I will fire Laurence and he won't get a penny to pay the mortgage. Then the bank will take the
house back. You will lose this lush life and you might even find it hard to feed yourself. You can still
beat Laurence every day, even to death. What will you do then? Oh, there's no need to wait that long.
I'll have my people cripple him because you told me that he hooks up with my wife."

With that, Samuel made a phone call. Before long, a few people rushed in and controlled Laurence.

They all looked devilish. The daggers in their hands cast the gruesome silver glow.
