Nina also realized that with Micah still here, those people might clooking for trouble with him. She pressed her lips together, her expression serious, "Micah, you should leave." "Do you think I can just leave you here alone?" Micah held Nina's hand.
He could not abandon her. Besides, given the current relationship between the Yaren tribe and Birkham, Birkham would not detain him.
Especially since Nash's death had been officially reported and investigated.

She was not a spy, but Birkham needed to provide the public with an explanation. She would need to undergo an investigation, including a review of her recent call records.
As Nina was about to be taken away, Orion clung to her hand, refusing to let go.
Nina knelt down and patiently explained to him, "Orion, stay with Uncle Micah. I just need to handle sthings with these people. You have to be good." After speaking to Orion, she looked up at Micah, her eyes filled with hope. She did not say anything, but her silent plea spoke volumes.
Micah pressed his lips together and said, "Don't worry. I'll take good care of this child." Micah understood Nina's nature. She needed to clear her nrather than leave under a cloud of suspicion. Although he remained wary of the child, he would take care of Orion for Nina's sake. Once Nina left, Micah took Orion's hand. "Who sent you here? You don't seem like someone who can't talk." During his twith Nina, Micah had not heard the child speak a word. Orion was like a mute, yet he had a contemplative look that was not typical of a five-year-old.
Most importantly, the child's arrival had been very sudden.
Orion ignored Micah.
Micah could not be harsh with him, so he kept talking, "I don't care who sent you or what your goal is. But don't think you can hurt Ninaor stay with her forever!" Orion merely glanced at Micah without saying anything.

When she woke up, she felt the car bumping along the road. She was not dead, and her mouth was not gagged. She tried to speak, "Who are you?" No one answered.
She continued, "I am Nash's widow. I am also part of the Yaren tribe..."
Before she could finish, a mocking voice interrupted, "Miss Nina, haven't you always refused to acknowledge your identity? Now, at the last moment, you finally acknowledge it? It seems that family ties aren't as important as your life."
The voice wasn't altered, but it was unfamiliar to Nina. It couldn't be someone from the Yaren tribe or Seth. Could it be one of Seth's followers?
Nina gathered her thoughts and said coldly, "If something happens to me, do you think you can useto bargain for Seth?" Nina was sharp and composed. Even now, she maintained her calm.
