Farley said, "What the hell are you talking about? Your dog bit someone, and not only are you not offering compensation, but also you're trying to pin the blame on me. I'm not like my dad. I won't let people walk all over me."
Roger replied, "Your dad is such a nice guy, so how did he end up with a son like you? I'm starting to question if you're even his son."
Farley retorted, "You..."
Seeing her father and brother being treated like this, Hannah just couldn't stand it any longer. She dismounted from Steven's back, pushed through the crowd, and stared at Roger. "Roger, if my brother isn't my dad's son, whose son is he?"
Farley and his father looked very much alike, so even if you didn't know them, you'd know they were father and son just by looking at them. Roger was just spouting nonsense.
Hannah, using a trick she learned from Steven yesterday, said, "Actually, your son doesn't resemble you at all. Maybe it's your son's legitimacy you should be worried about."d2
Roger retorted, "You..." He wanted to start a fight but was intimidated by the cold gaze coming from behind Hannah.
Hannah continued, "Roger, I respect you. But once my brother's wounds are treated, I'll find out why your dog bit him. If it was on purpose, I won't let it slide. Now, call the village doctor to stop my brother's bleeding. Then call an ambulance to take him to the county hospital."
Roger wasn't willing to. "If you want to call an ambulance, do it yourself. My dog was properly chained at home, it was him who offered himself to the dog. Just now, he scared my dog away. Now I don't know where it has run off to. If I can't find the dog, you guys will have to compensate me for my dog."
Hannah retorted, "We'll settle this later."
Steven, standing behind Hannah, said, "I'll have people investigate Roger's situation. The private doctor I brought is here, let's have the doctor check on Farley's wounds first."
Hannah replied, "Good. Make them hurry. Farley's injuries seem serious."
Steven nodded, and immediately, two doctors came over and crouched down to inspect Farley's wounds. A chunk of flesh was missing from Farley's leg, like a bloody hole, and blood kept pouring out. It was heartbreaking to see.
