Tristan and Michaela gradually fell into a deep sleep.

It was 5:00 am, the sky was still dark, and there was heavy fog.

Suddenly, there was a buzzing sound reverberating in the sky.

Michaela woke up first, so she shook Tristan to wake him up. "Honey, honey, wake up."

Tristan sat up abruptly. He nervously asked, "What's wrong?"

"Can you hear that sound?"

Tristan listened attentively. He became excited, then quickly lifted up the blanket and walked toward the window. He leaned against the iron bars to look up at the sky.

As dawn broke, he could see several helicopters hovering in the sky. Many people in black military uniforms descended on ropes from the helicopters.

Meanwhile, there were faint sounds of people jumping from the rooftops.

Tristan rushed back to the bed. He carried Elio up with one hand and hugged Michaela with the other. Trembling in agitation, Tristan said, "My love, they're here. There's so many people here." "Who?" Michaela asked as she nestled in his arms. She was nervous and agitated.

"I don't know who they are. There are many helicopters, and lots of people are coming down. They are armed and agile, it seems like they're special forces."

Both of them hugged each other tightly. Remembering Nathan's words, they didn't dare to leave the room.

Soon, gunfire erupts.

Tristan covered Elio's ears in fear.

The gunfire continued incessantly.

There were bullets hitting the iron door, making a very loud noise.

The next moment, the iron door was broken. Holding a handgun, Cole led a group of armed soldiers rushing in.

Nathan calmly sat in the living room with a half-empty glass of water in front of him. He slightly raised his head to look.

Upon seeing him, Cole was excited. "General Morrison," he exclaimed.

"You're here," Nathan calmly replied. He felt that all the efforts over the past month were worth it.

Feeling guilty, Cole apologized, "I'm sorry, General Morrison. I'm late, and I let you suffer."

Nathan looked at him with relief. He responded, "Cole, you're right on time. There's no need to apologize."Contents belong to NovelDrama.Org

"General Morrison, let's go," Cole said.

Nathan pointed at another room. He said, "My father-in-law, mother-in-law, and brother-in-law are in the room. Be polite and don't scare them." Cole was shocked because he didn't expect him to be here to rescue his wife's family.

Cole led his men to knock on the door. He said politely, "Mr. Hoffis Mrs. Hoffis, I'm Cole, subordinate to General Morrison. I've come to take you home. Please open the door."

The door was immediately opened.

Tristan dressed before taking Michaela and Elio out of the room.

"Nate," Tristan called out as he was touched. He walked over with tears welled up in his eyes. "You haven't lost your memory. You really came to rescue us, really..."

Nathan politely stood up. He took his hand and said, "Dad, let's talk at home. You guys leave first."

"Okay, okay..." Tristan responded with excitement. He then took Michaela and Elio with him before following Cole to leave.

As they walked past Nathan, Michaela noticed the bloodied cloth tied around Nathan's thigh. "Nate, how did you get injured?" she asked, surprised.

Nathan smiled. He replied, "Mom, it's just a small injury. Hurry, leave now. It's dangerous here."

Tristan and Michaela were worried, but they knew that now was not the time to ask questions. They had to cooperate with the operation and not become a burden to Nathan.

They left apprehensively.

Cole instructed several armed subordinates to escort them until they boarded the helicopter and left.

Nathan sat back down and looked up at the surveillance cameras. He smirked as he said, "Hiding behind cameras like a coward, yet stiff wanting to control everything. You're not worthy."

The camera slightly moved, then became unresponsive.

After seeing off the couple, Cole went back into the house. He nervously asked, "General Morrison, what happened to your leg?"

Nathan glanced down at the injured area. He calmly asked, "Cole, what brings you here?"
