"Dulin? What's wrong with Dulin?" Mark, who was obviously much more haggard, sat at the dining table and raised his head in surprise. He had a very bad life in the previous week. Although no one dared to treat him in the detention room of the police station How about it, but the environment there and the hatred in the eyes of the lower class of society made him very uncomfortable. He clearly knew that even if these people were cruel enough to kill him, they would not do anything reckless, but he just couldn't sleep.
He wakes up every time he sleeps for a short while, fearing that someone will do something to him in the middle of the night.
The food he ate during the day was also very bad. He used to hate money and power transactions, but this time he took the first step in life and failed. He planned to bribe a policeman to provide him with better food and rest environment, and promised a thousand yuan in favors. Unfortunately, the policeman not only failed to agree to his conditions, but reported the matter to the police chief. Although there was no result, it was obvious that the meals every day became very difficult to swallow.
What's even more terrible is that those who were imprisoned with him were able to eat. It is no exaggeration to say that the dogs in the manor were fed better than this, but they were able to swallow it. It was also because of this incident. Let him know that no one else is making things difficult for him, that this is the way it is here.
And all of this is thanks to Dulin.
After he was released, he was delayed for half a day at the police station, mainly because the court had a receipt form for him to fill out. After he came back, he took a shower, changed a set of clothes, asked the chef to make three steaks, and ate them hungrily. He swore that he had never felt that steak could be so delicious. It was so delicious that he just wanted to stuff the beef into his stomach to fill his stomach.
So when the secretary said the name Du Lin, he was stunned for a moment, and then he realized, "What's wrong with him?"
The secretary quickly told what happened at Namirides. After hearing this, Mark was a little confused at first, and then burst out laughing.
For someone as smart as Du Lin to do such a stupid thing, it really made him wonder if Du Lin had been replaced by someone else. This almost public attack and murder case was definitely the biggest news breakout at the end of this year. one. If this matter can be used to promote a subjective stance in public opinion, even if it is really not something he did, it will become something he did. His political life is over, and he should never think about the possibility of going further in this life.
At this time, a guest came to the deserted manor. Arthur walked in from the door wearing a very formal suit with a small gift in his hand. This serious outfit of his was the first time Mark had seen him dressed like this. It had to be said that Arthur did have his own unique advantages, such as his appearance and the temperament cultivated in such a family, coupled with his The clothes made him become a completely different person.
Mature, stable, confident, and has an outstanding style.
Maybe it was because the scene of Arthur regretting and crying beside Mr. John's bedside and showing his true feelings made Mark feel a lot better about Arthur. He didn't ask him impatiently what he was doing when he came back like before, but stood up on his own initiative. Invite him to sit down and have something to eat together.
"This is a pendant I bought outside. I thought it looked pretty, so I bought it, just for you. The seller told me that this thing can get rid of some bad luck, and it is very effective." Arthur put the thing Putting it on the table, his move shocked Mark, but he quickly reacted and thanked him with a sincere smile. No matter what conflicts the two had in the past, their interests are always the same now. They are brothers and a family. When this family faces the greatest difficulties, they should stick together.
He happily opened the box, and inside there was a figure similar to those wearing masks on the Origins murals. It was made of wood and could be hung anywhere. It might make a crisp knocking sound when the wind blows.
"I like it very much..." Mark handed this small pendant to his secretary and asked: "Hang it on the window of my study so that it will sound when the wind blows in." Of course, this was just a casual comment. He said that if the sound of dililangdang hanging in the study room made him unable to concentrate at all.
After watching the secretary leave, he asked, "Do you want to come back?" Mark's smile was contagious. "If you want to come back, you can move back at any time. I will tell my father. The family should Living together, nothing can separate us!"
Arthur smiled and sighed. In fact, he felt deep fear the moment Mr. John came out alive. Then he used some means to get the doctor to tell the truth. Mr. John was just pretending to be sick. He was actually I woke up the next night after falling into a coma. This made Arthur realize that Mr. John must have known about his murder, because before that, he had touched Mr. John's hand and lifted his arm.
It was impossible for Mr. John not to feel such a big movement and it was still during the day. He had a premonition that once Mr. John got out of this whirlpool safely, he would be the first to be unlucky. Will he disinherit himself and expose the stupid things he has done
Yes, now he suddenly felt that he had done something stupid, but he had already done it, what else could he do
Seek forgiveness from Mr. John
That is absolutely not feasible. With the indifference between him and Mr. John over the years, he has almost lost all the family ties, and with his behavior this time, Mr. John will never let him go. He will soon have nothing, and will soon fall from the sky and fall hard into the mud, becoming the same as those who he is usually reluctant to even look at, becoming the bottom of this society.
He loves his current life and does not want to lose it. The only way now is to stand up and correct Mr. John's manipulation of the industry through illegal means. Only by proving this, Mr. John will never be able to return home. In addition, there is one more thing to do, which is to send Mark away.
Even if Mr. John cannot come back, he is still alive. As long as he is alive, he can speak. He can tell Mark the crimes he has committed, and then Mark will deprive himself of his inheritance rights and everything. If Mark is gone and stands up to testify against Mr. John with his courage to face accusations of moral and universal values, maybe some people will be willing to help him and help him accomplish everything he can even dream of.
He clenched his fists hidden under the table and said with a smile: "Actually, I also want to come back, but you know my father's attitude..." He tried to make his expression look more natural, "He will definitely not agree. Yes, there will be another argument. I have nothing else to do this time. Congratulations on coming out. Secondly, I want to say that if you are of any use to me, give me a call. "
Mark nodded, "I understand... Do you really not think about it?"
After the two chatted for a while about their childhood, Arthur left.
The next day, Mark was busy all day long. On the one hand, he wanted to call those newspapers, hoping that they could discredit Dulin. At the same time, he talked about the newspaper alliance again. On the other side is
The employment lawyer tried to pull Mr. John out of the case. Maybe Mark could do it on his own, but he was far from the level of Mr. John. Mr. John is already a representative figure in the newspaper industry. He doesn't need to say anything. Just standing in this manor can calm the chaotic situation.
In the evening, Arthur called him and said that he had contacted the best lawyer in the imperial capital, the guy named Kevin, through several friends. Now Arthur is entertaining him, and the other party also wants to meet Mark to talk about the case, and finally decide whether to represent Mr. John's case.
After Mark received the call, he immediately asked someone to prepare 200,000 in cash. He also wanted to hire Kevin to help him with the lawsuit, but Kevin seemed to have disappeared now, and the firm did not know his specific situation. Hearing that Arthur was able to find Kevin, he felt a sense of relief in his heart. This bastard finally did not cause any more trouble, which could be regarded as a good thing.
Two hundred thousand is the meeting gift he prepared for Kevin. He has heard about Kevin. As long as you feed him, he will stand in the abyss and defend the devil. There is no case that he doesn't do, there is only money that he doesn't like.
Mark followed the address given by Arthur and came to a relatively remote place. Arthur told him that there was a private club in this place, which only entertained friends of the club owner and some very prominent people. Although he couldn't see how such a place could be hidden in this remote place, Mark finally believed Arthur, because the attitude he showed during this period really made him believe it.
Just as he got out of the car with his suitcase, packed his clothes, and was about to walk into a building, three young men wearing scarves suddenly rushed out from the alley on the side of the road. They rushed to Mark's side quickly. , reached out and grabbed the suitcase in Mark's hand.
This is robbery!
Mark secretly cursed the inaction of the Imperial City Police Department while clutching the box tightly. There was not two thousand yuan in it, but two hundred thousand!
Just as he shouted for help, a robber whose face he couldn't see clearly pulled out a dagger from behind and stabbed Mark in the chest!
Arthur was standing behind the window on the third floor opposite, holding a wine glass, curling his lips, and his eyes were particularly cold.
From now on, the George family belongs to him!
He will have everything and will be respected by everyone. He raised his glass and signaled to Mark across the street, who was clutching his chest and unable to get up, that your era is over!
