After signed the name, the contract paper gleamed faintly, and then the whole

paper emerged with delicate light-colored patterns. These patterns blocked the

writing, but did not affect reading. But it also means that it can no longer

be changed, adding words and crossing out will destroy these delicate

patterns.

After , Angus continued to explain things while he was still awake, who can be

trusted in the chamber of commerce, who are capable but lacking in

temperament, and so on.

After the confession, his hemoptysis symptoms became more serious, and it

seemed to be dying.

"Can I ask you one last question?" Lorrain Hill looked at the dying father.

"You speak up."

"Why do you trust me so much? We only met once before, if I were an assassin?"

Lorrain Hill said the question in his heart.

"Haha...cough cough..." He vomited blood, then raised his head.

"If you get along for a long time and trust others, I think that would be

stupid."

"I believe in long-term and reliable interests more than trust in friendship

and family affection."

"People's hearts will change. Maybe he swears so much today, but he will leave

you tomorrow."

"I am a businessman and I value profit. My opponents are also a group of

merchants, and they value profit more than me."

"It's not that I despise them. If they can afford an assassin like you, then

I'm convinced, there's nothing to say."

"But, would that group of people invite you assassins? No, I went north and

south. I have never seen any kind of people. No matter their appearance and

knowledge, you are rare. I have never encountered them in my life. Yes. It's

like two gangsters fighting. Will one of them invite the king's daughter to be

a thug? If he can afford it, will he fight each other."

"So, I believe you have nothing to do with them, and I believe you will keep

your promises and protect my remaining children."

The girl still feels a little unbelievable. Does he just believe in his own

way of looking at people? I don't believe that I am so good.

"Well, after this crisis, when your child grows up, I will transfer the

property of the Chamber of Commerce to him."

"Thank you, but it doesn't have to be." Surprisingly, Angus didn't care

whether the property was returned to his descendants.

"My child is only 10 years old, and I don’t know what he will grow up in the

future. If he is not a weapon, giving him such a large fortune will only harm

him. It’s easy to fall into the trap of others and ruin his life. I just want

him to grow up, live, marry a wife and have children, and stop being like me."

"What if he grows into a very capable person?" the girl asked curiously.

"Then don't worry about it. He will get everything with his own strength.

Although it is a bit troublesome in the early stage, the satisfaction, pride

and sense of accomplishment after success is irreplaceable. This will

accompany him throughout his life."

"So you only need to shelter him until you get married. As for the property in

my name, you can control it at will."

"Serez, Chelsea, you have worked hard these years, and I will bother you two

to assist this respectable lady in front of you."

"We will, please don't worry, sir." The housekeeper and the maid next to Angus

looked at Angus, who had less air intake and more air, and felt sad.

"I still have a few properties in Hopeland. I can give these two loyal

servants one place, okay?" Angus raised his head and looked at Lorrain Hill

and asked.

"No problem, it was originally yours after all." The girl didn't care at all,

in her opinion, she could even give more.

"Thank you." Angus handed over the tokens, suicide note, and other valuables

to Lorrain Hill, and then asked the two servants to leave a distance. He had

something to say to Lorrain Hill alone.

After the housekeeper and the maid left, Lorrain Hill walked to a rock beside

Angus and sat down, looking at the man who was about to die.

"Do you have anything else to say?"

Angus leaned against the boulder, staring at the flowing clouds in the sky. "I

didn't expect it, since I will end my life here."

"Can you hear the story of me as a loser?"

"Ok."

"I grew up in the Westwind Kingdom a long time ago, relying on my father to be

a baron, making troubles everywhere, is a ** kid." He said.

"Until one day I met Elaine's mother, she was a lady from a declining

aristocratic family. Her family's territory was gone, and the family had to

live in a difficult situation."

"At that time, I laughed at her parents for making a fool of themselves for

pretending to be decent. I thought she would be very angry, but she ignored

me."

Angus's eyes were a little dazed. "So I teased her, said she was ugly, and

frightened her with bugs."

"But she was unmoved, she was still sitting under the tree and reading, her

demure appearance made me suddenly moved."

"I'm curious, why isn't she angry? Does she have any pride in herself."

"I asked people around me and learned that their family is actually very poor.

Her mother is a vain person. She often loses her temper because she is not

satisfied, and she often throws fire on her at home."

"Under normal circumstances, most of these children will become timid,

withdrawn, and weird."

"But she didn't, I was very strange, and finally ran to ask her one day."

"She replied that my mother was the unwelcome fourth lady in the family in the

early years, so she was especially concerned about face, because it hurt her

heart and had a gap, so she would be eager to fill this wound."

"But if your mother beats and scolds you like this, won't your heart hurt? I

asked curiously."

"Yes, I will be sad and want to cry, but I don't want to be that kind of

person. She was sitting under the window sill at that time, as if light was

shining on her."

"From that moment, I fell in love with her."

"I pursued her fanatically, confessed to her, and wanted her to accept it, but

she did not promise me."

"I am puzzled and asked why. She said she didn't want to marry a dude, I told

her that I love her more than anything else."

"But she still refused me, why, I asked again. She said that even if I really

do out of love, it won't work, because people will change, especially my noble

children who depend on the family like this."

"Everything about me comes from my family. UU reading www.uukanshu.com doesn’t

have much abilities. If I reluctantly get married, my family’s elders and

relatives will make irresponsible remarks and continue to interfere. I can’t

refute or be unaffected by it, because life You have to rely on the family,

this relationship cannot be cut off, and there is no right to speak."

"That way, even if they get married, they will live very tiredly. Sooner or

later, both of them will become tired and change their hearts."

"At that time, I couldn't refute her. So I desperately tried to make money."

"An inexperienced person suddenly wanted to make a lot of money. As a result,

I was in a mess and was locked up by my father for a month."

"After I came out, I tried to make a little money, not relying on my family

alone."

"I am good at arithmetic, so I helped those merchants get reports. Until one

day I heard that her parents were going to marry her to exchange money."

"I couldn't help it. I ran to her house, met secretly, and proposed to her

again. At that time, I was no longer favored by my family. I was left out in

the cold, and I didn't expect it."

"But what I didn't expect is that this time she promised me, she said at least

I am a person who can live independently now."

"So she married me, the ** in the eyes of an outsider, without hesitation,

and lied that she was pregnant, so her parents had to agree, because if she

was not a virgin, other nobles would not marry in."

"After she gave me a daughter, she was badly injured and passed away within a

few years. But I was framed because my brothers were fighting for the family

property, and I had to leave my hometown to temporarily foster Elaine at the

time. at friend's house."

"What happened later is nothing. This * kid took a little bit of * luck,

made a lot of money, and planned to pick up his daughter to live together

again, and then the farce came to an abrupt end on the way home."
