Chapter 1480
Carl did not possess an ounce of care for what Zeke's intentions were, and reprimanded him at once.
'Nicole... You..."
Zeke had no knowledge as to what Nicole had gone through prior to this. It was only then that he finally noticed the
bruises and injuries on Nicole's arm. At that point, he was flooded with guilt from the inside.
After she had seen Zeke's look of guilt and embarrassment, she finally lost it and yelled, "That's enough. Stop it,
Carl!"
Carl fell silent after she had shouted at him. However, he was still heaving with anger. He continued staring at Zeke,
thinking that he had stopped that ungrateful man.
However, it was then that Nicole said, "While this object may bring US unknown danger, no one else can make
better use of it other than the organization, provided it is for the right reasons. Besides, the Guzman family are
people of the military. It will be a disaster forthem if one of their own attains such power."
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtNot expecting Nicole to be so foresighted, Zeke thought, 'She's right. In the end of the day, my father is the
commander of Hustuaburg, and he is indeed responsible for a large number of troops. Everyone will be really
fearful and distrustful of the Guzman family if his son amasses power outside of the establishment as well. This will
definitely get US into trouble!'
Even Carl did not expect Nicole to think that far.
'Right now, Zane's organization is being targeted. While this crest may come with its own set of dangers, it will
definitely be of great help to the organization if it's real. It's just that I'm really worried about Nicole...' Carl thought.
Nicole saw the hints of worry in Carl's eyes, to which she calmly responded, "If you're worried about me, keep me
safe. This is what you can do."
Carl hardened his gaze at once. "Of course I can do that!"
TH definitely protect her even if it means risking my life!' he thought.
"That's good enough for me," Nicole smiled happily, diffusing the tension that was in the room before.
Then, she looked at the computer screen.
"Perhaps nothing will happen even if I click on it," she said as she lifted her hand and pressed her thumb against the
fingerprint reader.
In an instant, the fingerprint on the screen flashed red,
Then, a few words appeared on the screen.
[Congratulations. You are the sixth-generation owner of the fire crest.]
Soon after, a bright effect of flames flashing about appeared on the screen. Within a blink of an eye, the flame
disappeared, and the image of a globe appeared. Then, at the center of the globe, the moving image of a signal
manifested and radiated across the Earth, whereupon multiple dots lit up across the continents.
An audio recording then began to play. 'The Holy Alliance has been notified of the existence of the sixth-generation
owner. Loyal to a fault and powerless to defy you, their aid will be at your disposal. Those who dare rebel against
you will face untold consequences!"
Nicole ranged her eyes across the locations on the globe. They were all well-known families from the past hundred
years, each powerful in their own right.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmThe moment she became the owner of the crest, all of the families who had formed an alliance with the Reby
family would be notified, becoming her allies in the future.
When Carl and Zeke saw this, they were both stunned. While the two looked at each other in shock, Nicole's watch
started ringing.
Nicole clicked on the notification, after which a message appeared before her eyes at once.
[Congratulations, sixth-generation owner.]
Messages of similar wording came in one after another, with the senders being well-known and powerful families
from different countries,
It was then Zeke and Carl were completely sure that the crest was real, and that all of them would obey Nicole
should she call for it.
'So, that was why those people were trying so hard to kill Nicole and I, as they wanted to reclaim this thing for their
own,' Zeke thought.
He was shocked, but he did not regret what he had done at all.
'If the whole world learned about me in an instant, I definitely would've peed myself,’ he thought.
Nicole, on the other hand, stared at the computer screen and merely frowned.
She turned around and looked at Carl. "It seems that my identity has been exposed."
To Nicole, this did not bode well for her.
