Chapter 182
Eight children were locked in a room, crying non–stop. Their voices were hoarse, and their eyes were red. Some people’s foreheads were swollen with big bumps, probably caused by hitting the wall in panic and anger.
Their dirty faces were streaked with tears, crying and calling for their mothers.
They were so pitiful.
Juliette thought that if Louis were treated like this, she would definitely kill everyone on the spot.
“Watch them. After they meet up with the other group and transfer the goods, we will be safe,” Luke said.
Juliette stood behind him, listening to his emotionless voice. She knew that in his eyes, these children were just goods to make money from. As a mother herself, anger welled up in her heart.
Juliette kicked him in the butt with all her might. Luke was caught off guard and fell forward.
In front of him was a makeshift toilet prepared for the children.
But the children were unattended, and they made the toilet very dirty when they relieved themselves. In order to avoid too much contact between the personnel and the children, the toilet was only cleaned regularly, and it was now full of filth.
Luke held the sides of the toilet with both hands.
However, his momentum was too great, and it was a portable children’s toilet.
With a snap, the portable toilet cracked open, and the filth inside flowed out.
In order to save his face, he braced his hands on the ground, only to land in a pile of filth.
A pungent odor wafted over him.
The children were all stunned. They stopped crying and looked over.
The bolder children clapped their hands and laughed out loud.
For a moment, the scene was very lively.
Luke’s cold, murderous eye swept over them, and the children shrank back in fear.
“Luke, are you alright?” Jacob immediately stepped forward, but stopped short when he smelled the odor on Luke and saw the poop on his hands.
Luke’s face was grim, his eyes murderous.
By this time, Juliette had already stepped on a man and was looking down at him.
“I knew something was wrong with you. You must be a spy they planted, right? You actually took advantage of Luke’s inattention and attacked him?” Juliette scolded.
Luke’s face was extremely gloomy. He always liked to be clean, and if he accidentally got blood on him, he would feel uncomfortable for a long time, and he would have to take a shower and change clothes immediately.

Chapter 182
How could he stand being stained with this kind of thing?
He was the boss!
How could he allow himself to be stained with this kind of thing?
“It wasn’t me! I didn’t hurt Luke! I’ve been wronged! The man, who was stepped on by Juliette, hurriedly explained.
“Let me ask you, were you standing behind Luke just now?” she asked.
“Yes, but..”
“Since you were standing behind him, if it wasn’t you who kicked him, who else could it be?”
“But. Shae, you were standing behind Luke just now tool”
Juliette pulled out a knife and slashed it across the man’s face.
“You mean I kicked Luke? Luke and I have been through life and death together for so many years. Do you think I would do anything to him?”
Blood dripped from the tip of the blade, but Juliette just tucked a strand of hair behind her ear.
“More importantly, how could a delicate beauty like me possibly kick Luke ten inches away? Should I thank you for thinking so highly of me?”
The man was terrified. It wasn’t him who kicked Luke, but he couldn’t prove his innocence. What should he do?
Juliette lifted her fair face and looked at Luke.
“Luke, do you think someone as frail as me could kick you three meters away? Could I?”
Luke’s face was extremely unsightly. He said in a deep voice, “Prepare hot water!”
Jacob said, “Yes, sir!”
Someone had already brought hot water over. They lined up and presented basins of it to Luke.
He dipped his hand into the first basin of water and shook off the dirt.
He washed his hands with soap in the second basin of water.
He rinsed his hands in the third basin of water and dried them with a towel.
Luke changed into a pair of clean shoes on the spot and was about to leave.
Juliette’s voice rang out again.
“Luke, I have dealt with the person who kicked you. Do you want to lock him up? He dared to hit you. He must be an undercover!”
Luke paused for a moment. “Throw him into the sea to feed the fish.”
Everyone present trembled, a chill running down their spines, and they were even more determined not to betray Luke.

Chapter 182
Juliette knew that every member of Luke’s team was guilty of heinous crimes.
However, Luke didn’t hesitate to end the life of one of his men; he was really cold–blooded and merciless.
In the room, Luke stood under the shower with a sullen face, letting the hot water wash over him.
The bathtub beside him was already full of water; after showering, he would have to wash again.
As Jacob was wiping him down, he suddenly let out a puzzled sound but quickly went quiet.
“Say it!” Luke said.
Jacob had no choice but to say, “There’s a mark where you were kicked.”
“And?”
“The footprint doesn’t look like it belongs to a man.”
“Since when did you need to hesitate so much when speaking in front of me?”
Jacob pursed his lips and hurriedly said. “The size of the footprint… it looks more like Shae’s.”
Luke stated matter–of–factly, “She kicked me.”
Jacob was astonished. ‘Luke actually knew?
“Then why did you still throw…” that bro into the sea?
Luke sneered and said, “I’m telling her in advance that her ending will be worse than feeding the fish.”
Jacob was even more puzzled. He had never heard of any discord between Luke and Shae.
As he was pondering, Luke suddenly grabbed him and pinned him against the wall with his back to him.

Juliette and Thora witnessed the man being taken away.
“How dare you do that just now? Aren’t you afraid of being discovered by him?” Thora whispered.
If she hadn’t been paying close attention to Juliette’s movements, she would have believed that Juliette was telling the truth.
Juliette said lightly. “He knows.”
Thora’s face turned pale.
“He doesn’t trust me, but he still asked me to watch over their goods, which means I’m still useful to him for the time being, so even if my acting was superb just now, he knew it was me who kicked it and he would still keep me for now.”
Thora’s voice trembled, “He… What on earth does he want?”
Juliette raised her hand and pressed on her shoulder, trying to calm her down.

Chapter 182
The wind gradually died down and soon came to a complete stop.
Juliette frowned. “The yacht has stopped”
“Didn’t they say they were going to withdraw immediately? Why did they stop so soon?”
Juliette noticed the sob in Thora’s voice. She pressed on her shoulder, turned her around, and looked at the lighthouse in
the distance
“Thora, is the lighthouse very, very far away? Like a tiny dot frozen in the darkness? Although it is small and the light is weak, no matter how far the ship travels, they can still find it in the darkness.”
Thora was stunned. She thought she was ready to die, but when death was approaching, she was still afraid.
Juliette stared into her eyes: “If you are afraid, think of me as your lighthouse. Remember, I’m only here to find the truth about what happened five years ago, and I’ll go back with you with the truth.”
After her voice fell. Juliette sensed something strange in the air.
