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.
