W —hen Jack returned home, he smelled the dense smell of smoke, and immediately pushed his father's study door. John sat on the chair with a depressed expression, and looked out the window in a daze.
"Dad,it is necessary to investigate Jane’s death thoroughly, I can't let my little sister die in such unjust reason." Jack was young and impulsive, if he did not investigate this matter clearly, he would feel bad.
"There's no need,, let's end this matter here!" John pressed the tip of his cigarette into the ashtray, and said with a heavy tone: "There's no point in continuing the investigation, the police force has already qualified it as an accident."
"But..."
"Your sister's death was an accident.!" John's voice had increased by several times, almost to the point of shouting, Jack was shocked.
"Our Wayne Family has already suffered too much. I still have to snatch the mountains and rivers from the Wayne Family for you, I don't have any extra time or energy to think about anything else. We have already lost too much. If you really want to avenge your sister, then make Edwards roll off his seat. John clenched his teeth, his face was sinister and terrifying, as though he was a venomous snake that only wanted to eat people.
Jack was scared stiff by his father's twisted expression. He took a step back and panted heavily, "Dad, do you really have the confidence to snatch over the authority of Wayne Family? I always felt that we didn't have much hope."
"Even if there are little hope, I still want to give it a try. If I don't try, I won't die in peace. I'm not willing to give up! John's voice instantly froze, as if he did not have the courage to continue talking.
Jack looked at him, finding that there is a trace of pain in his father's eyes. He stepped forward, who was teetering on the verge of collapse: "Father, I know you are unwilling, alright, I'll help you and do whatever you want. You just need to tell me directly whatl should do. We will always have a war with Edwards, no matter win or lose, it is wprth, right?"
John suddenly pushed his hand away, and said: "I do not need your help., Just focus on your own thing."
"Dad, now that Jane is gone, if I don't help you, who will?" Jack immediately asked anxiously.
"I have my own ways!" He did not want to drag his only son into the water. All of the crimes and evils, he would do them himself, but his son must live a good life. He believed that no matter how cold and merciless Edwards was, as long as the their grandma was around, Jack would be safe and sound.
"Wei." Jack retreated step by step, then took the car key and turned to leave.
John glared at the door fiercely, like a wolf that had reached the end of its road.
Mary wore a mask and wandered around the streets. She had a pure complexion with slightly messy long hair and a blue casual jacket which covered her delicate and exquisite body, making it even more impossible for people to recognize her in one glance. It had been a long time since she walks freely among the crowd. This feeling was pretty good.
In front of her, she saw a candy shop she used to love. She came in and ordered a lot of good food, then sat down in a corner, taking off her mask up to her chin, and start to drink milk tea and eat delicious pastry. The sadness in her heart couldn't be wiped away. She had acted out many scenes, and although her mistress had experienced many trials and tribulations, her acting had been very relaxed. This was because she had long since seen the end of her acting; the lovers would definitely be separated, and she would definitely live a blissful life.
However, when thinking about this, she felt like she could not get over it no matter how hard she tried. What was the end result?
