Chapter 1489 We Will Live Happily Forever


    Xander looked at Samuel and smiled, "You''re right. This is indeed a counterplot."


    Nicole''s face turned clouded when she heard his answer. She only coldly snorted and turned her head


    away to express her dissatisfaction, after all, Xander was her father and they hadn''t met for many


    years.


    Xander could tell that Nichole was dissatisfied with what he had done. He saidughingly, "Don''t you


    think it is a good n?"


    "The n is not bad, but it''s inhumane."


    Nicole couldn''t say anything against her heart. ''This counterplot was indeed useful in finding out the


    people hiding behind, but they didn''t consider the feelings of the women while making the n.''


    ''I was not a great person, but a little woman, who was able to analyze a problem from the big picture


    but couldn''t handle it without the inference of emotion.''


    Samuel looked at his father-inw with admiration.


    ''Xander really had a way. Although Nicole was angry at this, she wouldn''t be too angry. Considering the


    overall situation, the n was the right thing to do.''


    Nicole could distinguish between right and wrong.


    Xander sighed, "The war is cruel. You may think it''s not a war. The people behind the curtain have kept

    looking for Laurence; they are not ordinary people. Why did they want to research the Berserk Gene?


    Have you ever imagined what a disaster it might be if the Berserk Gene is put into military use? At that


    time, wars won''t be waged covertly but in an open way. Ordinary people have always been the greatest


    victims of war since ancient times. Once the war breaks out, millions will lose their life. Wars are even


    more destructive in modern times since there are modern military weapons."


    No one had such a near-death experience as Xander did in the war. If he could choose, he wanted to


    be a painter who traveled everywhere; being a soldier would be thest choice because choosing to be


    a soldier meant choosing a life filled with the cruelty of incessant battles.


    A trace of pain shed through Xander''s eyes.


    He whispered, "I know the n will make the women who love Davon and Laurence heartbroken, and


    they might even harm themselves." But we need to ensure the safety of the rest of the world.


    Compared with the grave consequences that might be caused by this incident, we can only choose the


    lesser of two evils. It is also Davon''s unshrinkable responsibility because he is a soldier. Laurence is


    not, but involving him in this n is also inevitable for he has the Berserk Gene. If we hadn''t taken the


    counterplot, it would be Davon and Laurence''s lovers who suffered the most when Laurence goes


    berserk. We have reduced the damage it might bring by making it ur earlier. Nicole, we hope that


    you and other girls can live in a peaceful world, but peace doesn''te itself."


    Nicole didn''t know how to refute Xander''s words.


    As the wife and the daughter of two soldiers, she knew that she should unconditionally support all their


    decisions, which meant she would inevitably endure grievance, sadness, and even misunderstanding.


    At this moment, Nicole had understood the difficulty of being a soldier.


    Her anger died at this thought.


    "Dad, what about you? You''ve been a soldier for so many years. What are you protecting and


    persisting in? What happened when Elvis took you away as the subject of research? How did you


    manage to escape death after the release of the news of your death?"


    Nicole looked at Xander. She really wanted to know.


    Xander looked at Nicole and smiled, but there was a trace of bitterness in his smile.


    "Would you believe me if I told you that I was not the person who was dissected by them?"


    Nicole and Samuel were stunned at these words.


    Samuel didn''t believe that Elvis would do such a stupid thing, but...


    Looking at their surprised faces, Xander took a deep breath and said, "My face was wounded by the


    bombs when Elvis brought me to that isted ind. But no one would expect that a signaler of mine


    would follow us all the way to that ind."


    A trace of nostalgia touched Xander''s eyes, while he was recalling the past.


    He still remembered the appearance of that signaler, who was of a simr height and body shape to


    him. And this was the reason he chose him as his signaler. When he was out for an emergency


    mission, he would make the signaler his body double to stabilize the morale of troops.


    Coincidentally, that signaler even looked a little bit like Xander, although that resemnce only


    appeared in their eyes, that was enough for the signaler to y his double.


    They had worked together perfectly. When Xander was out for a mission, the signaler would dress up


    like him so that they could fool the enemies. This also enabled Xander to sneak into the enemies'' back


    to carry out his mission. However, he did not expect the signaler would follow him when Elvis caught


    him.


    "His name is Carl Kent. He''s Booth''s uncle. His ancestors had a kinship with our ancestors, but they


    were out of contact as each established their own family. I didn''t expect that after several generations


    we would meet again and experience life and death together."


    Xander''s eyes went moist when he thought of Carl.


    "The first day on that ind I was unconscious and my face was severely burnt, so Elvis took my blood


    for a DNA test to confirm my identity. After my identity was confirmed, someone came to take my blood


    for experiments. I had no idea about where I was because I was still in a daze and had a fever. I only


    felt the needles sticking into my body from time to time. Afterward, I felt I was moved to another ce.


    When I woke up, I found myself in a closed space. There was no one around, but there was plenty of


    food that could cover fifteen-day consumption."


    "Nobody came there. It was so quiet that I could only hear my heartbeat. I didn''t know the time. I didn''t


    know where I was. About half a monthter, when I had eaten up all the food, someone opened the


    door and walked in. That person looked somewhat like Carl. I was sure that they were rtives. That


    man told me that he was Moore Kent, Carl''s younger brother and Booth''s father. He was also the


    assistant of the doctor who was forced by Elvis to do the research on gic modification."


    "He told me that Carl had burned his face and reced me as the subject of research. Carl asked him


    to save me. He couldn''t take me out and could only hide me in that ce at that time since that ind


    was heavily guarded. That ce was originally designed for the research, but it was abandoned due to


    its venttion. I wanted to go out after knowing that Carl had reced me, but Moore injected


    something into my body and I passed out. Then I fell into a deepa for over twenty years.


    Xander''s words shocked Nicole and Samuel.


    "You fell into aa for more than twenty years?"


    "Yes, I slept for more than twenty years. The medicine Moore had injected into my body caused me to


    fall into aa for over twenty years, and I still didn''t find out what it is. Had it not been for the


    explosion, I wouldn''t wake up. I opened the door, ran out, and saw Audrey running towards me with a


    corpse in her arms. Although time has wrinkled her face, I could still recognize her, because she is my


    only true love. Audrey was very stunned, but she didn''t say anything and immediately pulled me and


    continued to run. Seeing that I was alive, she threw the corpse back. I knew it could be Carl but she did


    that before I could stop her. My best brother died for me."


    Later, Audrey told Xander all the sufferings Carl had experienced. He felt extremely distressed. Then


    they established this secrete base and started searching for the people from the Kents. While they


    were looking for Moore, they found that Moore had already been killed. To their relief, Booth and Olivia


    had escaped because they were not in City B at that time. While they looking for the Kents, they


    coincidently met Karina and saved her.


    This was their story before they met Nicole and Samuel.


    Nicole was deeply affected by their story.


    ''I owed a great debt to the Kent family. Had it not been for Carl, she would never have the chance to


    know what my father looked like.''


    "Dad, does Booth know this?"


    "I''ve told it to Booth through Karina. I owed a lot to The Kents. I will treat the Kents as my own family for


    the rest of my life."


    Nicole nodded. She also thought the same way.


    Nicole found something confusing, so she asked, "Mom loved you so much. How could she mistake


    that corpse as yours? I saw her nearly copsed when she saw that corpse. How much do you look like


    each other?"


    "I''d say fifty percent."


    Audrey walked out of the kitchen. Thinking of the past, she whispered, "I missed him so much and I


    haven''t seen him for so many years. I thought it was normal for his appearance to change after so


    many years, especially on that ind. The people in that ce would torture him. That''s why I mistook


    that corpse as him. And on the finger of that corpse, I found the ring I bought for him. Our names were


    engraved on it. "


    Xander hugged her and whispered, "Carl did that. He pursued perfection with everything. To be


    my substitute, he picked up my habits and mimicked me very well."


    "I''m very grateful to him. Although it''s cruel to him, I still thank him for recing you. Life without you


    was meaningless. I don''t want to live that kind of life anymore."


    "Not anymore, we will live happily forever."


    Xander looked at her tenderly and patted her back.


    Nicole didn''t want to bother them, but since the topic had gone this far, she needed to get more


    information. She cleared her throat and asked again, "Do you know who is behind this now? Have you


    found anyone suspicious?"
