Chapter 17 Did I Ask You To Save Me (Part One)
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 ConTEent bel0ngs to Nôv(e)lD/rama(.)Org .
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.
Noel suddenly turned around and saw a little figure running away in an exchange of gunfire. As the
enemy's gun was aimed at Jacob, Noel shouted with his eyes wide open, "Jacob, get down!"
Before everyone could react, Noel had pounced on him at an inhuman speed. Some people said that
when the children were in danger, their parents would always burst out energy that couldn't even be
explained by science, just like what Noel did at this moment.
Before he could react, Jacob had already been thrown into Noel's arms. Noel covered his little boy with
his whole body.
With one hand pressing Jacob's head in his arms, Noel stretched out his hand and shot at the man on
the other side. After a few shots, the man fell to the ground.
Noel's men covered for them. They didn't know how this child came out all of a sudden, but they did
know that their captain's fighting capacity had broken the limit again, which was terrifying. They were
impressed by his incredible speed.
"Jacob, Jacob, where are you?" Yvonne's anxious voice came from outside the forest. She heard the
gunshot, but Jacob was not in the yard of the house anymore.
Noel cursed in a low voice, "Damn it. Don't come in here, woman!"
"Mommy, Mommy—" Before Jacob could finish his words, he was carried away by Noel and dodged
the bullets from not far away.
Hearing the voice of Jacob, Yvonne was even more worried, but she quickened her pace and asked,
"Jacob, where are you? Jacob! This is not funny— Ah—"
Noel instantly placed Jacob in the pit behind him and said, "Stay here and don't move!" There was a
blockade in front of them, so their enemies wouldn't be able to come here.
Jacob nodded with his eyes wide open. Although the man in front of him was covered with camouflage
and he couldn't recognize his face, he knew that this was his father. His mother would be fine with his
father here.
Noel looked at the time. Yvonne fell down from the hillside and didn't know where she was now. But her
body was scratched so hard that she could felt a lot of pain. She tried to get up but her head was
already pointed at by a gun.
She raised her head, her eyes full of fear. Biting her lips tightly, she fell to the ground and looked at the
man pointing a gun at her.
It was obvious that the man didn't want to waste any time. Anyway, they couldn't escape, so it was
good to take one more person down with them.
At this moment, Noel immediately rushed over and grasped Yvonne by the wrist. The man was killed by
the soldiers. He pulled the woman in his arms and shouted at her angrily. "Yvonne, are you an idiot? Do
you even know where you are? Who the hell do you think you are? How dare you come to this place?!"
Noel was even in a cold sweat. Was this woman an idiot? It was obvious that this was a dangerous
place. Why did she come here?
