Chapter 1695
Honey?
Monique''s heart throbbed when she heard Levi addressing her this way. She was a little flustered
and confused, but she mainly felt delighted.
However, she couldn''t show that she liked it. Otherwise, he would definitely eat her up. She
pretended to be very fierce and red at him. "Who is your honey? Don''t address me like that, or I''ll
beat you up."
Levi did not care about her threat as he knew that she was not really threatening him. Otherwise,
her cheeks would not be red, which was clearly a bashful yet endearing look.
Levi knew that Monique was hiding her shyness inwardly in a fierce way, and he would not let go of
such a good opportunity to tease her. "Honey, you escaped with me and have to suffer. Don''t worry,
I am your husband and I will definitely make a big fortune in the future. By then, I will let you enjoy
life in a big mansion."
Monique didn''t want to talk to him but Levi pointed to the door as a signal of someone
eavesdropping on their conversation. Monique had to cooperate. "Then I''ll wait. But, don''t keep me
waiting too long."
Levi was very happy inwardly. Monique was a naive girl and it''s better for her to be with him. If she
was with someone else, she would be devoured unknowingly. Levi said, "Honey, don''t worry. I will
find a job tomorrow and we will move out here when I receive my sry."
"Great!"
Levi looked at the door and gestured to Monique with his eyes. Monique had no choice but to cry
reluctantly, "Dear, you are so good to me. I will love you forever."
Hearing the word ''Dear'', Levi was overjoyed, but his face remained calm. "You are my wife. If I am
not good to you, who else should I be good to?"
Monique could not have herself to say such mushy words. Hence, she replied softly, "Hmm."
Levi was satisfied. "Let''s eat. Only when you''re full can you have the ability to do what we love to
do."
Hearing what Levi said, Monique blushed. She scolded him in her heart, "Pervert!"
Levi gave a piece of his remaining meat in his lunchbox to Monique and said, "Be good, stop
blushing. Let''s eat."
Monique somehow understood the situation that she never did before. In the past, she always did
not understand why a poor couple could still be happy when they were together. Even if they
workedte, they would not feel tired. Maybe it was because they had hope in their hearts.
In other words, as long as she was with those who liked her; those who were good to her; those
whom she liked, she could make it no matter how difficult the situation was.
As expected, it was safe to live in the civilians'' area. At least, they stayed there for an afternoon
without any unusual happenings noted.
In the evening, Levi moved a small stool and sat at the door. He observed the passersby for a long
time, but he did not find anyone suspicious.
Everyone passing by was busy with themselves and they didn''t have time to look elsewhere. Of
course, there were rascals cadging a drink or a meal. They were nosing around and taking
advantage of the fact that the passersby were not prepared to pilfer.
At that moment, Levi noticed two people passing by in a hasty manner. Obviously, they were busy
but they still kept an eye on their surrounding environment.
Levi deliberately lowered his head to flick off the dust on his trousers. It was not until those men had
gone far away that Levi returned to his room and turned on the listening device. Before long, a voice
came from the other side, "Mr. Gilbert, we were careless this time. We let Levi and Monique
escape."
After the man finished speaking, there was no one continuing the conversation in the room. There
were only faint sounds of coughing. After the coughing stopped, a slightly aged voice sounded, "Tell
me, how I should punish you?"
The man added, "It was our dereliction of duty. We''re willing to ept any punishment."
The slightly aged voice said again, "Then, go to hell. Die. Don''t let me see you again."

"Mr. Gilbert, Ben and Mark both know that they are wrong, and they are sincerely asking for your
punishment. Although they did not do a good job, all of us have seen their loyalty to you. Please
spare their lives and give them a chance to redeem their ipetence." Levi and Monique heard
this voice before. It was the person who taught Ben and Mark a lesson previously. It seemed that he
had a high position in Sheldon''s team, otherwise, he would not dare to save the two people and
cause trouble for himself at this moment.
Perhaps, Ben and Mark had some sort of leverage against this person. As they had something on
him, no matter how unwilling he was, he would plead for leniency for them.
"Kieran Quartley, are you begging for both of them because you share the samest name?" It was
obvious that Sheldon Gilbert was not satisfied. It was evident from his voice that he was upset at
this moment.
It turned out that those men had the samest name. Even though they may not be brothers, they
had the same ancestor. Thinking back to the previously- heard conversation, Levi had a general
understanding of their rtionship.
Kieran continued, "Mr. Gilbert, can you let them go out first? I have something to tell you alone."
"If you have anything to say, just say it. Don''t mess around with me like that." Apparently, Sheldon
didn''t care.
It was silent again.
With this spare time, Levi sent a message to Neil asking him to help look up the person named
Kieran to check what role this person yed in the terrorist organization.
After a moment of silence, Kieran said, "Mr. Gilbert, don''t you know how much manpower we have
lost in ourst operation? Now, we don''t have anyone we trust to use. Do you think we can just let
them die?"
Thest operation naturally referred to when Ronald was sacrificed. That attack on the enemy
required arge amount of manpower. However, the counterattack by Chatterton Town military was
also quite destructive.
The Chatterton Town military had lost a total of three soldiers. They were very heartbroken but they
sessfully eradicated all the terrorists. At that time, none of the terrorists survived.
Before that, Levi was not familiar with the enemy''s forces. Upon hearing the conversation at this
moment, he roughly understood the reason why the enemy could not find them. It should have
something to do with their dwindling manpower.
He held his breath and continued to listen. Then, he heard Sheldon say, "Tell me, what is the
percentage of our men we can trust in Xanduvia City now?"
Kieran answered, "Mr. Gilbert, except both of them who we can trust 100%, we can''t find anyone
else. The people outside are all halfhearted. They''ll do anything for whoever can give them more
benefits. We can''t depend on
them during critical moments."
After these words, it was again silent for a long time. When Levi thought that they would not speak
again, a voice came from the listening device again. "Forget about it, just give them a chance to
make up for their mistakes."
Kieran replied, "Mr. Gilbert, thank you!"
Ben and Mark also said, "Mr. Gilbert, thank you for sparing our lives."
