Chapter 936 The Soul’s Destination
With a swish, all seven men saluted simultaneously.
Budd looked over. His eyes wavered as if he couldn’t believe it. “Y–You guys?”
“Long time no see, Mr. Wilson.” The leader’s eyes turned red. “It’s us. Do you remember Ramiro at the back? You carried him for 12 miles so he could survive.”
The man named Ramiro Knox had a scar near his eye. He stepped forward and hugged Budd. “It’s me, Mr. Wilson. I always thought you were doing well. Over the years, you never contacted us. You…”
Ramiro’s voice trembled. If it weren’t for this case, everyone would have thought Budd didn’t want to contact them.
After all, they were all children back then. But now they realized someone had been blocking Budd’s path at every turn.
“Captain Wilson.” The man with a shoulder mark on his shoulder stepped forward. “We all know about your situation.
“Mr. Preston assures you that the organization won’t neglect any heroes. The Lowes, the Thompsons, and the Reeds will all be punished.
“Dulcie’s wish will be fulfilled by us, Unit 071. From today, Dulcie is our youngest soldier.”
Of course, there wouldn’t be any formal enlistment, but this was Dulcie’s dying wish.
Leanne understood Dulcie best. If she knew that her favorite unit was here at the house and allowed her
to join, she would be overjoyed.
Holding his notebook tightly, Budd couldn’t contain himself any longer. His voice trembled as he said, Duls, did you hear that? Your wish has come true.”
In the corner, Dulcie nodded heavily, and her eyes shone. Though there wasn’t a spot on her that wasn’t
injured, she was still smiling.
Looking at her parents, she reached out and wanted to hold Leanne’s hand, but she was afraid Leanne
would be tainted by her dark aura.
Seeing this, Wynter placed the purple sugilite pendant in Leanne’s hand.
In that instant, Leanne seemed to feel something–the warmth and softness of Dulcie’s hand in hers during their post–dinner strolls.
Leanne covered her mouth with her hand.
When she realized what was going on, she deeply bowed to Wynter. “Thank you. Thank you so much.”
Leanne knew deep down that without Wynter, Dulcie wouldn’t have found peace in death. Those scumbags wouldn’t have been punished, either.

Even if she and Budd sacrificed their lives, what they would get in return would only be their own regrets.
Wynter reached out. To help Leanne move on, Wynter said with a smile, “Mrs. Wilson, I’m not helping you for nothing. I want your faith.”
“Faith?” Leanne didn’t understand, but she was sincere. “Both Budd and I will give you whatever you want.”
