“Husband?” He squatted down, picked up my hair and stared at me maliciously. “Your husband’s name is Samuel. In the video, didn’t you call your husband happily?” Brent smirked evilly.
“Delia, you don’t really think that if I marry you, you will really become my woman. Don’t forget, we are not registered. I’m curious about where you will be buried when you die in the future. You can’t be buried with the same ground as Samuel. Now, your own daughter hates your roots. We, the Brennan family, naturally don’t want your second-hand goods that can’t even lay eggs. Gee, I pity you, old woman.”
He threw me away, then kicked me with his feet, clapped his hands, and left with a cold face. As I lay on the ground, I remembered Samuel’s tenderness to me in previous years. Samuel didn’t even beat me, he didn’t even scold me. My face was buried in my arm, all I could do was just to cry. Sure enough, you can’t live peacefully if you commit immorality.
Rashad’s POV
I came to the Spring Court to see my father. I was sitting on the sofa playing with my mobile phone when my grandfather’s phone rang.
“Mr. Brent, originally, we had a chance to be in-laws. In that case, I would naturally help, but now… you see that your daughter doesn’t know how to love herself and has contracted that disease. Our Rashad can’t have your Zaniyah any more. These in-laws can’t do it. Why do I have to offend my nephew? You know, I am also dependent on others, and my life is very difficult. I’m really sorry, but there’s nothing I can do about this. ”
Grandpa finished and hung up the phone. After he hung up his mobile phone and put it aside, his eyes fell on TV again.
I looked up at the old man and said, “Grandpa, let me ask you something. Luke said that after the bridge accident, there was a person from the Fischer family involved in this matter. That person from the Fischer family, is that you?”
He glared at me. “You ask too much.”
“I am just curious. Have we participated in this matter? After all, this matter is wicked enough.”
He snorted, “Rashad, do you think your grandfather and your father could do such wicked things?”
“So, if that person from the Fischer family is not you? Who would it be? My uncle? Gee, that’s quite interesting, isn’t it?”
He said coldly, “If you have nothing to do, go back and read more books on business administration. Don’t dangle in front of my eyes. I am upset.”
I skimmed my lips. “I didn’t come to see you. You said you had something for me. I came to see you but you said you were upset when you looked at me. Grandpa, the most difficult old man in the world is definitely not Grandpa Ertai, but you.”
His eyes pointed at me, I shrugged, “OK, I will go, I guess that is not enough.”
I got up and left. When I walked to the door, I didn’t leave, but stood at the door and peeked.
Grandpa sighed and dialed a number. “If the reporter investigates, will this matter be found in your head?”
“Dad, you think too much. This matter has nothing to do with us. Our only fault is to help the Brennan family digest some stolen money. It is impossible for Brent to pull us into the water by virtue. He should know that even the police can’t find out why I stole the stolen money. You can rest assured that I won’t let Cheney catch anything on us.” Said the man on the phone.
Grandpa’s eyebrows are deep. “Wyatt, remember, be careful to make it clean. Cheney is not as easy to deal with as you think.”
“I see, Dad, you can go to bed early and leave the rest to me.”
I leaned against the door, gently closed the door, and left with heavy steps.
It turned out that my dad was involved in this matter. That is to say, my father was also one of Krista’s father’s murderers?
At that moment, Krista’s smiling face came to my mind. Recently, I often think of her.
Leaving the Spring Court, I headed for the entrance to the East Garden. This path separates the east and west gardens into two worlds. I can’t get into the world of Dongyuan or even Xiyuan’s world. I just stayed.
I sat on the floor on the bluestone road beside the arch, took out a cigarette and lit it, but I didn’t smoke it.
When I was a child, crossing this door was something I did every day. Because at that time, I liked my uncle too much. In the words of my grandmother, Flora and I were like my uncle’s minions. And at that time, people in Fischer mansion welcomed me. But now …
On the other side of the arch, a familiar voice hesitated to call “Master Rashad?”
I looked back, saw someone, put out my cigarette, and stood up. “Uncle Jacob…”
He stepped forward and smiled. “It’s really you. The light here is not good. I thought I was wrong. I almost mistaken you for a wrong person”
“Uncle Jacob, why are you here?”
“Me?” He looked at my extinguished cigarette. “Just like you.”
I took out a cigarette, lit it and handed it to him.
“Thank you, Master Rashad.”
“Uncle Jacob, you are getting more and more polite with me.” I pulled the corners of my mouth faintly. “When I was a child, you always called me Rashad.”
“But Master Rashad is no longer a child now. The Fischer family is a well-behaved place. It makes me feel better to call you Master Rashad.”
“I thought you blamed me, uncle Jacob”
He took a puff of smoke. “It’s all over. You are all young. You have to look forward. But still, you are my young master. You should come out early and live your own life well. Don’t mess anything around anymore. You are not such a child.”
My heart is somewhat touched, and everyone knows that I am cynical. But Uncle Jacob said, I am not such a person…
I leaned sideways and leaned against the arch. “Uncle Jacob, you also think that the second uncle has changed, right? Are the changes In him really good?”
He looked up at the night sky. “Well, it can’t be better. I have been favored by the Fischer family for many years, and I don’t want the Fischer family to ruin the future because of my Flora. I am very happy to see the changes of the young master now. Now I only hope that you can get married early, and the Fischer group needs you.”
I shook my head and smiled. “Uncle Jacob, you know, the Fischer group doesn’t need two owners, so the Fischer group doesn’t need me at this time.”
He looked at me and said nothing. After smoking, he said to me, “Master Rashad, it’s getting late. Go to bed early. I should go back.”
He had not gone far, and I shouted, “Uncle Jacob.”
He stopped and looked back at me. “What else do you want, Master Tang?”
“I just want to ask… about Flora. Is she… okay? You know, my uncle forbade me to visit her.”
He smiled. “Thank you for your concern. She is still the same. For me, as long as she is still the same, it is already very good.”
I nodded and watched him leave.
Taking a step back, I went around to the wall on this side of Xiyuan and sat down again. I owe more and more debts, and now I even owe Krista. On the sorrow of having an ambitious grandfather and father. Probably no one in this world can understand it.
