After signing the name, the contract paper emits a faint shimmer, and then delicate and light-colored patterns appear on the entire paper. These patterns cover the handwriting, but it does not affect it, but it also means that it can no longer be changed. Add words and strokes. Going, will destroy these delicate patterns.
After that, Angus started to explain some things while he was still awake, which people in the chamber of commerce could be trusted, who had the ability but lacked in temperament and so on.
After the confession, his symptoms of coughing up blood became more and more serious, and it seemed that it was about to die.
"Can I ask you one last question?" Roland Hill looked at the dying father.
"Go ahead."
"Why do you trust me so much? We have only met once before, what if I were an assassin?" Roland Hill expressed the doubt in his heart.
"Haha... cough cough" He spat out blood, then raised his head.
"I think it's stupid if you trust others after you've been with them for a long time."
"I believe in long-term and reliable interests more than trust in friendship and family."
"People's hearts will change. Maybe he made a vow today, but he will turn his back on you tomorrow."
"I'm a businessman and value interests. My opponents are also a group of businessmen who value interests more than I do."
"It's not that I despise them. If they can afford an assassin like you, then I am convinced that I am defeated and have nothing to say."
"But, will those people invite an assassin like you? No, I've traveled far and wide, and I've never seen any kind of person. You are rare in both appearance and knowledge, and I've never met in my life. Yes. It's like two thugs 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 that you have nothing to do with them, and I believe that you will keep your promise and protect my remaining children."
The girl still feels a little unbelievable. Does he just believe in how he sees people? I don't even believe that I am so powerful.
"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 to in the future. If it doesn't work, giving him such a large fortune will only hurt him. This will make him stared at, and if he is not capable, it will be very difficult for him. It is easy to fall into other people's traps and ruin his life. I just want him to grow up, live, marry 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 by virtue of his own strength. Although it is a little troublesome in the early stage, the satisfaction, pride and sense of accomplishment after success is irreplaceable, and it will accompany him throughout his life."
"So you just need to shelter him until you get married. As for the property under my name, you can do whatever you want."
"Cerez, Chelsea, you have worked hard all these years, and I will trouble you two to assist this respected lady in front of you."
"We will, please don't worry, sir." The housekeeper and the head maid next to him looked at Angus, who had less air in and out more, with sadness.
"I still have a few properties in Hopelander, can I give one to these two loyal servants?" Angus raised his head and looked at Loren Hill and asked.
"No problem, after all, it was originally yours." The girl didn't care at all, and in her opinion, she could even give more.
"Thank you." Angus handed the token, suicide note and other valuables to Roland Hill, and then asked the two servants to leave a distance. He had something to say to Roland Hill alone.
After the housekeeper and the head maid left, Loren Hill walked to a stone on the side of Angus and sat down, watching the man who was about to die.
"Do you have anything else to say?"
Angus leaned against the boulder, staring at the clouds in the sky. "I really didn't expect that I would end my life here."
"Can you hear the story of my underdog?"
"Um."
"I grew up in the West Wind Kingdom a long time ago. Because my father was a baron, I made trouble everywhere. I was a bastard." He said.
"Until one day I met Elaine's mother. She was a young lady from a declining noble family. Her territory was gone, and her family could only live in poverty."
"I laughed at her parents for making a fool of myself at the time, I thought she would be angry, but she ignored me."
Angus' eyes were a little dazed. "So I made fun of her, said she was ugly, and scare her with bugs."
"But she was unmoved, still sitting under the tree reading a book, her demure appearance made me suddenly moved."
"I'm curious, why isn't she angry, does she have any arrogance."
"I learned from people around me that their family is actually very poor. Her mother is a vain person. Because she is not satisfied, she often loses her temper, and she often throws fire on her at home."
"Under normal circumstances, most of these children will become timid, withdrawn, and eccentric."
"But she didn't. I'm very surprised. I finally ran over to ask her one day."
"She replied to me that my mother was the fourth young lady who was not welcome in her family in her early years, so she was very concerned about her face, because it hurt her heart and left a gap, so she was eager to fill the wound."
"But your mother beats and scolds you like this, won't your heart hurt? I asked curiously."
"Yes, I will be sad and cry, but I don't want to be that kind of person. She sat under the window sill at that time, as if the light was shining on her."
"From that moment on, I fell in love with her."
"I pursued her feverishly, confessed to her, and wanted her to promise, but she didn't agree to me."
"I was puzzled and asked why. She said she didn't want to marry a dude, and I told her I loved her more than anything else."
"But she still rejected me. Why, I asked again. She said that even if I really love it, I can't do it, because people can change, especially the noble children of my family who depend on me."
"Everything in my family comes from my family, and I don't have much ability. If I try to get married, the elders and relatives in my family make irresponsible remarks and constantly interfere, and I can't refute or not be affected by it, because my life still depends on my family. The relationship cannot be cut off, and there is no right to speak."
"In that case, even if you get married, you will live a very tiring life. Sooner or later, both of them will be tired and change their minds."
"I couldn't refute her at that time. So I tried my best to find a way to make money."
"An inexperienced person suddenly wanted to make a lot of money, and the result was that I was a mess, and was locked up by my father for a month."
"After I came out, I tried to make a little money again, not relying on the family and only relying on myself."
"I'm good at arithmetic, so I help those merchants get reports. Until one day I heard that her parents were going to marry her off 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, and I was left out in the cold. I didn't have any expectations."
"But what I didn't expect was that this time she agreed to me. She said that at least I am a person who can live independently now."
"So she married me, a bastard in the eyes of outsiders, without hesitation, and lied that she was pregnant, so her parents had to agree, because if it wasn't a virgin, other big nobles would not marry."
"Fairy Wood"
"After she gave me a daughter, her body was severely damaged, and she passed away within a few years. Later, I was framed because my brothers competed for the family property, so I had to leave the country and put the then Elaine in temporary foster care. at friend's house."
"What happened later was nothing. This bastard had some shit luck, made some money, and was ready to pick up his daughter to live with him again, and then the farce ended abruptly on the way home."
