Denise raised her head and looked at Jason.
I have a witty look on my face.
Jason didn't hold back.
He raised his hand and patted that smooth forehead.
Snapped!
Amidst the crisp sound, Denise covered her head, stopped her footsteps, and flattened her lips, looking aggrieved.
However, the next moment—
"At dinner time, you can't grab it with your hands."
Jason reminded.
"Ok~"
In an instant, Denise broke into a smile, and bouncing after Jason.
When he saw Jason standing in a corner thinking, he didn't bother him, and just walked around with a look of anticipation on his face.
As for helping Jason solve the problem
Denise remembers what her mother said: Don't trouble others, that is the greatest help to others.
Denise has always kept that in mind.
In its heart, he is an ordinary person.
Things Jason can't handle.
How can it be solved
It's not like reading a novel, just move your fingers and turn the pages.
So, it didn't make a sound.
Jason glanced at Denise who was within his 'reach', and after confirming that it would not let go, he began to meditate.
How can Gerald's wedding be postponed
Unconsciously, Jason substituted into the thinking mode of 'the city that never sleeps'—
Get rid of that 'aunt' Lim!
I can't solve the problem.
But I am able to fix people who create problems.
This is the most direct and simplest solution, and it is once and for all.
But he was doomed not to do so.
Shaking his head, he pulled himself out of the 'city that never sleeps' thinking mode.
Jason tried to think of normal solutions as best he could.
and found out...
No!
is really not!
Gerald respected his mother, and it was destined that he could not directly rebel against his mother.
And his 'aunt' has gone through all kinds of hardships and is extremely determined, and ordinary people's persuasion can't shake the other party's decision at all.
Among these ordinary people, he, Jason, was naturally included.
"Difficult."
Jason sighed and looked at Gerald who was walking through the crowd.
Although Gerald was walking among the crowd, his attention was always on Jason's side. After seeing Jason looking at him, the person in charge of the harbor immediately showed an expectant expression.
However, when Jason shrugged helplessly, expressing that he had no other choice, the harbor master immediately became depressed.
But only for a moment.
Gerald smiled again as he looked at the next person.
only…
The smile is slightly stiff.
At this moment, for the first time in his mind, how good would it be if I wasn't in charge of the harbor
If I wasn't in charge of the harbor, I wouldn't have so many troubles, let alone be so tired.
Every day with my cousin, walking on the beach, fighting, wielding a sword, and sweating, that is the most enjoyable.
Unfortunately, there is no if.
Gerrard's character is destined that he will not escape cowardly.
Don't hand over your burdens to others.
He'll just do it all.
Therefore, such thoughts disappeared without a trace just after turning around in my mind.
Then, Gerrard resigned himself to his fate, waiting for his "sentence".
About ten minutes later, an old woman in black walked into No. 111 Deren Street.
Immediately, the relatives who surrounded Gerrard flocked to the old woman, and began to ask her relatives and flatter her.
Gerald seized this rare free time and walked quickly to Jason's side.
"I didn't think I'd have my own wedding like this."
Gerald sighed softly.
Jason wanted to comfort Gerald, but he couldn't find words of comfort.
Finally, Jason said:
"I will always be by your side, at this moment or in the future."
"me too!"
Gerald replied.
The person in charge of the harbor looked at Jason and said as if promising: "Whether it is now or in the future, I will stand by your side and face any danger with you."
After speaking, the two looked at each other and smiled.
This is pure friendship between men.
Although their beginning comes from family affection.
Afterwards, the two chatted about trivial matters in a low voice.
It wasn't until the 'aunt' came over that the two stopped talking and walked out from the corner of the banquet hall.
"Gerald, you are the master here, you should always stand in the most glorious place."
"Jason, you are Gerald's cousin. Even if you want to avoid annoying communication, you can only stay in the corner when the banquet is over, not when it is in progress."
As soon as Aunt Lim came over, she scolded Gerald and Jason for a while.
The two looked at each other and spread their hands together.
This made the old woman frown.
However, he didn't say anything more.
Instead, he turned around and looked at the relatives.
"Welcome to Hans Harbor, 111 Deren Street."
"Today is a special day."
"It was today when Hans left."
As the old woman spoke, sadness appeared on her expression.
Jason glanced at the black clothes on the old woman's body, feeling dazed.
Today turned out to be the day that 'Uncle Hans' passed away.
But, on the day of death, a wedding is held...
It's kind of weird.
Jason turned, and couldn't help but look at Gerald.
Then, he saw Gerrard looking a little stunned and surprised.
"My mother rarely talked about the circumstances of my father's death."
"Today is the first day I know the date of my father's death."
"When I asked in the past, my mother would always lose her temper. After a few times, I stopped asking."
After noticing Jason's gaze, Gerald explained softly.
Jason listened, frowning.
He felt a little unreasonable.
But he didn't make a sound, just quietly listening to the old woman continue talking.
"At that time, Hans traveled to the Southern Islands on the 'Queen Mary'."
"Unfortunately, a storm engulfed the 'Queen Mary'."
"Hans and all the passengers on board were tragically killed."
"Because it happened suddenly, Hans didn't leave any will. At that time, I took the young Gerald and became the person in charge of Hans Harbor..."
The old woman spoke in a mournful voice.
Then, he began to talk about some things with that uncle Hans.
Little by little, Jason has a more specific impression of the aunt in front of him and the uncle he has never met.
All of Gerald stared at his mother.
There was respect in his eyes.
Only Gerald, who has experienced these things himself, can understand what his mother has endured.
It is not an exaggeration to say that he was close to death.
He still clearly remembered that when he was ignorant, in order to help a fallen lady, the other party showed a sharp knife, and it was his mother who stood in front of him.
The blood sprayed directly on his face.
is warm.
Just like his mother's comforting smile at that time.
'Gerald, it's all right. '
'It's just a minor injury, just take a rest. '
The memories that had been blurred in the past suddenly became clear.
This made Gerrard's last trace of unwillingness disappear without a trace.
Even for my mother, I should not escape.
Gerald told himself this, and at the same time expressed self-blame for his 'willfulness'.
And at this moment, Little Lid suddenly walked in, he avoided most of the people, quietly came to Gerald, and whispered—
"My lord, His Royal Highness Carole Carat has been assassinated!"
