Chapter 840

Author: Faith Shaw
Nina knew she was nothing special to Micah. She was just trying to test him.

Micah smiled, "I've already allowed you to search for your people. Once you find them, you can take them with you. But with the current turmoil, staying here is the safest option."

His voice was soft and raspy, his gaze fixed on Nina.

Behind her, Nash felt a surge of anger and a strong urge to pull Nina into his arms.

"Let's go," Micah said before Nina could respond.

He did not mention where he was taking her, but she knew it meant being separated from Nash. Micah would not bring Nash along.

Nina's mind raced. "Micah," she called.

He turned to look at her, his expression waiting for her to speak.

"I'm not sure I want to go wherever you're taking me. Furthermore, going back and forth to search is quite troublesome."

Nina knew she had no say in the matter, but she needed to test Micah's intentions. She couldn’t just go without knowing where she was headed.

Micah’s expression remained neutral, but h

    Pharaoh's voice deepened with anger as he asked, "What are your intentions with Micah?"His face hidden behind a mask, adding to Nina's growing unease. She lowered her head, "It was a chance encounter. I have no ulterior motives."Only Micah knew about her search. She was not sure if Micah had told Pharaoh about her situation, so she decided to take a gamble. She bet on Micah's kindness, remembering how he taught children to read and helped the villagers with medicine. She gambled that Micah was a good person.And she was right.Pharaoh let out a cold laugh, "What is a Birkhamese doing here?"With that, he drew a gun from his waist and pointed it at Nina's forehead. She had seen war and death, but this moment was different. She knew one wrong word and Pharaoh would pull the trigger."I'm looking for someone. I was poisoned with kA48, a toxin developed by your people. My friend came here to find a cure. I got caught in the conflict and was mistaken for an enemy. I just want to s

    Meanwhile, Nash seized Mr. Joker's wrist, and the two immediately engaged in a fierce hand-to-hand combat.Pharaoh's quarters, heavily guarded at the entrance, were surprisingly devoid of people inside. Without Pharaoh's permission, no one dared enter. The spacious interior muffled the sounds of Nash and Mr. Joker's struggle, ensuring that the outside guards remained unaware.At that moment, Nash tried to shake off Mr. Joker and rush inside, but Mr. Joker caught up, and the two were now locked in a fierce, evenly matched fight.……Inside, Pharaoh still held the gun. Nina stood frozen. She had witnessed the atrocities committed by the allied forces, seen Mrs. Quintana torment other girls right in front of her, and encountered numerous injured people. But she had never encountered from this close.In the next moment, she felt a heavy weight on her shoulder as Micah pulled her into his arms. "You can't do this to my woman. If she dies, I guarantee you'll lose a son." Micah's words

    Finally, he stitched the wound closed. After tending to Micah's injury, Mr. Joker handed him a few pills to take."Sir, I don't understand why you did that. That man is closely connected to Nina. When he heard the gunshot, he only wanted to rush in and save her," Mr. Joker said softly, his lips pressed together. "Given the current situation, Pharaoh is already watching you and Nina."Micah was well aware of everything Mr. Joker mentioned. But at this point, he couldn't just stand by and watch Nina be killed. Micah spoke firmly, "Mr. Joker, you've been by my side for years. You know I have my principles and reasons for everything I do. Your only job now is to follow orders."Unspoken was the clear implication, "Don't ask unnecessary questions because you won't get answers." Although Micah didn't say it outright, Mr. Joker understood."Take some weapons to Nina and Nash for their protection," Micah ordered in a low, gruff voice.As Mr. Joker processed the command, it confirmed his

    Leaving those words behind, Joker turned and walked away without looking back. However, on his way back, he suddenly felt unwell. He started coughing violently and soon tasted the metallic tang of blood in his throat.Joker's expression changed. He hadn't expected Nash to have inflicted internal injuries on him. Having come from the same rigorous training ground as Micah and been by his side for years, Joker rarely encountered anyone who could match him. The recent fight with Nash had been intense. If Micah and Nina had arrived just a minute or two later, he might have ended up as Nash's defeated opponent.Nash was incredibly skilled. If he weren't from Birkham and had a bit more ambition, he could easily be a ruler here. Thankfully, Nash's only goal seemed to be Nina.After Joker left, Nash and Nina were alone in the room again. Nash lifted his chin slightly towards Nina, "Let me teach you."Nina's thoughts were elsewhere. She wanted to find Micah, but without Joker's help,

    Nina pressed her lips together, her expression serious. "Mrs. Quintana, please take me to see the injured.""You!" Mrs. Quintana was furious. But what could she do? She had to comply with Nina's request.As soon as Nina approached the entrance of the injured camp, the overwhelming stench of blood and rot hit her. She couldn't hold back and retched. Before Mrs. Quintana could mock her, Nina steadied herself, gritting her teeth as she stepped inside.The sight was even more horrifying than the slave camp. Limbs were missing, ears gone, eyes gouged out... It was a scene of utter brutality. Many faces were obscured by blood, and further in, people were crammed into barrels and cages. Centipedes and snakes crawled around, making Nina's skin crawl."Scarlett?" Nina called out tentatively, but there was no response. She had no choice but to check each person one by one, but Scarlett was nowhere to be found. Despair washed over her. If Scarlett wasn't here, had she been killed?Ni

    Mr. Joker's skills were well known to Micah. In this place, almost no one could match him. Yet, Nash had taken him down."Captain York, don’t forget whose territory you're on. If I wanted to harm Nina, I would've done it already," Micah said, his eyes gleaming with a cold light.Standing in front of Nina, Micah's words served as both a threat and a warning to Nash. He was making it clear that he could harm Nina anytime he wanted.Nina subtly gripped her gun, ready to use it if necessary.Micah continued, "I just want to have a few words with Nina. You wait at the door. Remember, if it wasn't for me, you wouldn't have had the chance to find them."Nash didn’t respond but locked eyes with Nina. Under her silent plea, he reluctantly moved to the door. Even there, he remained vigilant, his eyes fixed on Micah with a fierce intensity. If Micah dared to harm Nina, Nash was prepared to kill him, even if it meant dying alongside her.Micah ignored Nash and focused on Nina. "Nina, you'r

    Micah narrowed his eyes. "How did he get poisoned with this?"It was immediately clear to him that Nash had been poisoned, and this poison was personally developed by Pharaoh. Nash and Nina were from Birkham, yet Nash had somehow come into contact with this deadly substance."What are you saying?" Nina was in shock, unable to fathom that Nash was poisoned. Boom—It felt like a thunderclap went off inside Nina's head. Suddenly, everything became clear. Nash had planned everything meticulously before coming here. His mission wasn't just about peacekeeping or unfinished business. Their divorce was also tied to this critical issue. Both their poisons originated from the same enemy, the Yaren tribe.Tears welled up in Nina's eyes as she turned to Micah. "Do you have an antidote?"Scarlett, Nina, Wilfred, the missing Miranda, and even the deceased Sawyer, all of them were interconnected in countless ways.Micah shook his head. "I know about the poison, but I don't have the antido

    These words echoed in Seth's ears, prompting him to ask, "Whose DNA test is this?"The man in front of him shook his head. "Mr. Seth, this is a blood sample Mr. Joker brought."Seth didn't respond. Instead, he turned around to leave but suddenly paused, realizing something. He spun back and approached the man, pulling out a gun and aiming it at the man's head. "Make sure this test shows no relation.""Yes, yes," the man stammered, terrified by the black muzzle pointed at his head, not daring to hesitate for a second.……Half an hour later, the man handed the results to Mr. Joker. "Mr. Joker, here are the results."Without looking at them, Mr. Joker took the report and left. Seth observed this scene, his eyes cold and calculating. He ordered someone to follow Mr. Joker.Mr. Joker quickly returned to Micah with the DNA test results. Micah eagerly opened the report, but his expression darkened upon seeing no genetic relation. How could this be?"Mr. Joker, this test...""Sir, I s

    But instead of feeling touched, Vera’s first reaction was nausea. A wave of discomfort surged up from her stomach, and Vera’s face paled. She bolted for the bathroom. Caleb followed quickly. “Are you feeling sick?” “I don’t think so. I’ve been eating normally—nothing too heavy or weird lately.” Vera clutched her stomach, just as confused as he was. Then, a possibility flashed through her mind. Caleb clearly had the same thought. Without a word, he turned and walked into their bedroom, returning moments later with a pregnancy test. Vera looked at him, stunned. “When did you buy that?” He responded matter-of-factly, “Better safe than sorry.” Vera was momentarily speechless. Five minutes later, she stepped out of the bathroom, her hand instinctively resting on her stomach, her expression a mix of shock and disbelief. It was positive. They had only been married for three months. How did this happen so fast?Caleb, on the other hand, remained composed—at le

    Of course, Vera wasn’t about to dump all her responsibilities on her assistant. That would be exploitation. She called her assistant into her office. “You’re twenty-five this year, right?” Her assistant blinked, confused. Wasn’t her age common knowledge? Why was Vera suddenly bringing it up? A thought struck her. Was this an arranged marriage situation? Her face immediately filled with silent refusal. “Miss Vera, I’m still young. I’m not thinking about marriage anytime soon.” Vera tapped her pen against the desk. “I’m not telling you to get married.” “Oh.” “I just want to offload some of the smaller daily tasks to you. You don’t have to run every minor document by me.”Her assistant instantly understood. A raise. After confirming she was on board, Vera gave her a salary bump and had her hire a few more assistants to distribute the workload. “If I don’t have time to handle everything, you guys will take care of it. If something’s too complicated, jus

    Vera could sense danger the moment the conversation turned in this direction. Her father had never questioned her about married life, and she was lucky enough to avoid nosy relatives. But just because she hadn’t experienced it firsthand didn’t mean she hadn’t seen it happen to others. Without hesitation, she abandoned the half-folded pastry in her hands. “I... uh, need to use the restroom.” Before she could escape, Mrs. Smith caught her wrist. “You and Caleb aren’t getting any younger,” she said matter-of-factly. “You should start thinking about kids—make sure you’re putting in the effort, hmm?” Vera left the kitchen visibly drained. Mrs. Smith was a wonderful mother-in-law, the kind who treated Vera like her own daughter. Despite knowing Vera came from a well-off family, she had still gifted them a house as a wedding present. Of course, Caleb already owned a place, but his mother had insisted. “That’s your house. This is the home I’m giving you as a weddi

    That undeniable possessiveness flickered in Caleb’s gaze—subtle yet impossible to ignore. It was the kind of look a powerful man might give his beloved in an old Hollywood film. And right now, the photographer felt like the unlucky bystander who had accidentally stumbled upon an intimate scene. His voice wavered slightly, caught up in his own imagination. “Mr. Smith, lift your eyes toward the camera.” Caleb’s sharp gaze flickered over, intense and commanding. The photographer instinctively pressed the shutter. They continued with several more poses, reviewing the shots as they went. Vera loved them all, but her favorite was still the vintage-inspired one. “How long until we get the final prints?” she asked. “Two to three days at most,” the photographer replied. “I’ll have them shipped directly to you.” Then, after a slight pause, he hesitated before making a request. “I actually have a personal favor to ask—would you both be open to letting us displa

    Vera was tempted. They had already taken plenty of wedding photos—several sets at the island, more at the wedding itself. But this wasn’t just any photo studio. It was privately booked and known for being one of the most prestigious studios in the city. Appointments here were nearly impossible to get. The fact that Caleb had managed to secure a session meant he had gone to great lengths to make it happen. If they were just going to take ordinary wedding pictures, it would be a waste of an opportunity. Still, she wasn’t sure what kind of shoot she wanted. The photographer, understanding her hesitation, pulled out a sample album. “You can take a look at our past work. These are some of the styles we’ve done.” Flipping through the pages, Vera saw an array of stunning concepts—each picture more breathtaking than the last. Then, one particular set caught her eye. A Golden Age Hollywood theme.It was classic, nostalgic, and beautifully atmospheric. “Ca

    After the wedding, Vera considered taking some time off for a honeymoon. But the thought quickly faded when she realized Caleb had been practically living at the hospital. With a sigh, she dismissed the idea. She was used to it, but to say she wasn’t disappointed would be a lie. Her assistant picked up on it. “Mrs. Smith, don’t you want to go on a honeymoon?” she asked one day. “One of my friends just got married, and she’s been obsessively researching destinations. “She even said a marriage without a honeymoon is already half a failure.” Vera froze mid-page, suddenly losing interest in the documents she had been reviewing. Her assistant hesitated, then offered a suggestion. “Why don’t you go visit Dr. Smith at work?“You seem… distracted. Maybe seeing him will help.” Vera snapped out of her daze, suddenly aware of how preoccupied she had been lately. It was embarrassing to admit, but she had been zoning out far too often—especially after coming hom

    Whenever they did this in the past, Caleb always maintained some restraint. But tonight—he didn’t hold back at all. He took her from the bedroom to the bathroom, then back to the bed, his searing kisses trailing every inch of her skin. The next morning, even as she woke up, Vera could still feel the lingering traces of last night’s intoxicating pleasure. As expected, she ended up taking the day off. It wasn’t until two days later that she finally returned to work. *Everyone at the company had already prepared for this. The moment Vera walked into the office, she was greeted with knowing smiles and teasing remarks. “Congratulations, Mrs. Smith!” “Newlywed bliss, huh?” “Three whole days off? Someone had a good time.” It didn’t take a genius to figure out what she had been up to. Obviously, her married life was going exceptionally well—so well that she had completely abandoned work for it. Under the weight of their mischievous stares, Vera barely k

    Yelena still hadn’t accepted Hunter, but he wasn’t giving up either and was relentlessly closing in on her. Knowing Yelena’s soft heart, Vera figured it was only a matter of time before she gave in. She let out a sigh. Her friend’s love life wasn’t something she could interfere with. Besides, Caleb had already given her a little inside scoop. “She came to the hospital for a follow-up a few days ago,” he had mentioned casually. “Hunter was the one who brought her.” Vera had clicked her tongue at the news. Yelena always seemed quiet and reserved, but apparently, she was full of surprises.*Time flew by in the blink of an eye.By mid-month, Caleb had rented out an entire vineyard and spent several days transforming it into the perfect wedding venue.When the day arrived, the celebration took place right there.The vineyard was sprawling and elegant, every bit as grand as any luxury hotel—if not better. Even the wine cellar remained untouched, stocked with years-

    “Did you plan this from the start?” Vera narrowed her eyes, feeling like she had just walked into a carefully laid trap. “Mm.” Caleb smiled, then leaned in and pressed a soft kiss to her lips. Because yes—he had always been planning this. The biggest change in Vera’s life after the island proposal was the ring now sitting on her finger. It wasn’t just any ring. It was custom-made, something Caleb had specially ordered. She only found out by accident when she glanced at his phone one day and saw the purchase record. It had been ordered two months ago. Vera did the math and was stunned. He had been preparing for this long before she even started getting impatient. Her heart swelled with emotion. And as soon as Caleb’s parents heard that their son had finally proposed, they wasted no time pushing them to get the marriage license. *One day, Vera overheard Caleb’s mother lecturing him. “Your dad and I weren’t expecting much from you.
