Chapter 1674
"What do you mean I've ruined you in this life?" Mia's temper had always short, but because of Neil's words at this instant, she was on the brink of exploding on the spot. "Neil, if you don't explain yourself clearly today, I'll give you hell."
"You had already trapped me when I didn't even know if I wanted a family. Doesn't that mean that you have already ruined me?"
"Neil, what are you talking about? If you continue blabbering on, I'll-" Just as Mia was about to fly into a rage, she heard Neil say, "But I like quite this 'ruined' life you've given me. If it weren't for you, my life wouldn't be complete."
"Neil, what do you mean?" Rather than speaking clearly, he was choosing to aggravate her instead. Was he satisfied?
Neil sighed. "Mia, what's wrong with you lately? You used to be so confident, but why have you been overly concerned about your gains and losses recently?"
"I don't know the reason either... Just don't provoke me when I'm in a bad mood." As long as Mia calmed down a little, she wouldn't lose her temper because of Neil's words.
Neil took Mia into his arms and gently patted her back. "Levi's performance in the army was all due to his own efforts, not because other people wanted to save my face. He's no longer the playboy who only knew how to eat, drink, and play with his friends all day. He's now a qualified soldier."
Mia answered gloomily, "I know."
"No, you don't." Neil lifted Mia's chin, making her look at him. "My dear wife, our child currently has his future planned out clearly. He has already found the woman he wants to spend his entire life with. You really don't need to worry about him anymore. If you continue to do so, you'll probably be depressed even before getting a daughter-in-law. If you really become depressed, you'll be the one to start this history in our family."
Mia snapped, "Neil Brown!"
Neil said, "I just asked Julien and it turns out his cousin, Marilyn, is in Chatterton Town. Let's go back to Chatterton Town and have a chat with her."
Mia asked, "Do you think I'm mentally ill?"
Neil replied, "Whether you're mentally ill or not, let's just talk about matters of the heart with her. Doing so doesn't harm anyone."
Realizing that she had been out of it these days, Mia agreed. "All right, let's go back and have a talk with her."
"Mm." Neil nodded. "Let's go back and pack our things, then we'll talk to Jayden and the others."
"Alright then!" Mia sighed. "Let the children deal with their own matters."
Vacations always passed by in a flash. Truth be told, it was not that it was too quick, but Monique and Levi had suddenly received news from the army during their vacation, telling them to halt their vacations and return to the army to carry out a mission.
Monique and Levi rushed back to the Chatterton Town military region after receiving the order, but they still didn't know what the mission was.
They were called to the office by the commander as soon as they put their luggage down.
After arriving at the commander's office, the two of them gave a military salute and shouted, "Report!"
The commander looked at them and simply said, "Levi, Monique, there's a very mysterious mission that needs the both of you to complete. Do you two have the confidence to carry out this mission?" Without waiting for Levi and Monique's replies, the commander continued, "There may be moments where your life is at risk. Once you accept the mission, you can't back out of it halfway. Therefore, I'll give you an hour to think about it carefully. After an hour, you two will give us an answer."
"Commander, it won't take an hour. I can give you an answer right now. No matter what mission it is, I am willing to accept it." Levi and Monique gave the captain an affirmative answer at the same time without even thinking about it.
Death!
Everyone was afraid of death!
However, as soldiers, they had to control the fear in their hearts. They would appear wherever they were needed.
After hearing their affirmative answer, the commander was not surprised and remained expressionless. He, too, knew that as soldiers, there was no way for them to retreat in the face of sacrifice. However, he still gave them two choices, just to test whether they were qualified to carry out this mission.
The commander looked at the two of them and continued, "It's not too late to have any regrets. Once I report this, this matter will be finalized. If you two regret this in the future, the best case scenario would be expulsion from the military."
"Commander, as soldiers, we have long been ready to sacrifice ourselves for our country. If our country needs us, once we have been given an order, we will be willing to go," Levi and Monique said at the same time.
"Good, very good." The commander opened a document and handed it to the two of them. "This is a top-secret document that has been read by only two people, Colonel Brown and I. After Colonel Brown received this confidential mission, he handed it to me and asked me to choose people to carry out the mission. At that moment, you two came to mind. After thinking about it for a while, I decided that you two were still the most suitable ones, so I called the two of you back while you two were on leave."
Levi said, "Commander, we will try our best to complete the missions assigned to us by our superiors."
The commander pointed at the documents in their hands and said, "Don't talk so much first. Look at the documents and then tell me your plans."
Levi and Monique slowly opened the file, and read it line by line. Their expressions changed as they read. It was not because the task was very dangerous, but because the task they were about to carry out was related to the sacrificed Ronald.
Turned out, the culprit behind the riot had not been caught yet.
Only when they had successfully completed this mission and caught the two escaped culprits, could they comfort Ronald's spirit in heaven.
Levi and Monique looked up at each other at the same time. They knew what each other was thinking through an exchange of looks. Without Monique speaking, Levi spoke up first, "Commander, I will bring back those two culprits who have escaped and serve justice."
The commander said, "Currently, we only have a few clues. We don't know the exact location of those two criminals. So, as not to alert them, we will not use many people to investigate. It all depends on you two to find out where they are."
Levi and Monique said, "Yes!"
The death of their comrade had saddened them for so long. Now that there was such an opportunity to avenge him, how could they miss it?
As soon as they thought of the two culprits who killed Ronald, they felt a feral surge of rage in their blood.
