Chapter 843
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 suspicion. Nash, also known as "Ash," had indeed infiltrated their ranks. His intuition had been spot on. Mr. Joker nodded. "I'll do it right away."
Nina and Nash were back in their small room. Nash gripped her shoulders, examining her closely. Once he confirmed she was uninjured, he breathed a sigh of relief.
"I can't wait any longer," Nash said coldly. As a soldier, his duty was to protect his country first and his family second. Now, with his family right in front of him, he couldn't fail to protect her.
"Nash, don't act rashly. Pharaoh already thinks I'm Micah's woman. For now, you mustn't give yourself away," Nina said, cutting off Nash's thoughts.
Pharaoh could think whatever he
wanted. After all, Micah had openly taken a stand against him.
Regardless of what this father and
son were up to, Nina's priority was to
find Scarlett and Scott.
Mentioning Micah seemed to cast a shadow over Nash's face, his expression turning steely as iron. His gaze grew even colder.
"You and Micah... why is he being so
taken with
good to you?" Nash asked, his voice thick with suspicion. Micah had even taken a bullet for her and allowed her to return with him.
Nina shook her head. "I don't know either. He did ask me about one thing though... he asked where the beads on my bracelet came from."
Hearing this, Nash noticed the green beads on her wrist, a gift from Wilfred. Could it be that Micah recognized them?
Noticing Nash's gaze, Nina suddenly recalled that Wilfred used to call her Ivy.

Could she be Ivy?
"I think I understand now. There's something I need to confirm with Micah," Nina said, grabbing Nash's hand.
But before she could continue, Mr. Joker entered, tossing some weapons to Nash. "You're lucky to have met my boss," he remarked.
Nina's suspicion grew stronger. She

Mr. Joker, however, refused coldly. "Nothing is more important right now than my boss's health."
