Chapter 53 Childe King’s curve to save the country
An hour later, Buddy returned with a full load of his wife.
Big fish and meat, seasonal vegetables and fruits, everything you expect to find.
This is already the highest standard for entertaining guests in the countryside.
“Ale will graduate this year, right?” Malina was washing vegetables in the kitchen, and asked Josh, who
was helping her next to her,
“Why don’t you two get married after graduation?”
Speaking of marriage, Malina thought of her daughter’s wedding at her elder brother’s son yesterday
Josh said happily,
“Hedy helped the garment factory negotiate a cross–border business yesterday. Our family is rich and
got married!”
Josh straightened his back, his eyes puzzled, “Sister, she…”
“Mom will tell you about this later., tell mom first, have you talked about when you will get married?”
Malina began to chop vegetables.
Josh paused when he was peeling potatoes, “I’ll ask her when she comes.”
He and Ale haven’t chatted much for a while.
She said she was busy, so he didn’t bother.
After graduation, it shouldn’t be so busy.
At lunchtime, the dining table in the main room of the Ellis Family is filled with delicacies, and the
nourishing old hen soup is stewed in the pressure cooker in the kitchen.
Alcohol and beverages are fully prepared.
“They’re about to arrive.” Malina glanced at the old–fashioned clock hanging on the wall.
Buddy and Josh stood at the door and waited.
Hedy is doing homework in the bedroom.
Preston goes about his business in another room.
The clock was ticking, and an hour passed slowly while waiting.
The dishes are cold.
“Why haven’t you come yet? Is something wrong? Josh, ask.”
Malina was anxious.
It doesn’t matter if people arrive early or late, and it must not be an accident on the road.
Josh nodded and was about to make a phone call when three people came around the corner of the
mountain road.
It’s John and his parents.
John is a woman in her twenties. She wears a bohemian–style printed dress, with black hair reaching
her waist. She has
good looks and a good temperament because she studies art.

Her father wore a designer suit, and her mother wore a thick gold chain around her neck.
The rich attire was incompatible with the rusticity of the two of them.
“The in–laws are here.” Malina warmly greeted her. Because his son started supporting
John ‘s education early on, and promised to marry her, Malina has called his mother his in–laws all
these years, trying to be kind. That’s what
her mother called her too.
“Who is your in–laws? What are you yelling at if you are not married?” Mother said with a cold face.
Buddy was taken aback, John’s family didn’t have this attitude
before?
“What does your mother mean? Josh asked John directly.
He paid for John to go to college, not for John ‘s mother to treat his mother with this attitude!
“My mother is straightforward, don’t you mind.”
John brushed his hair behind his ears, and said in a normal
tone,
“I came this time to tell you, let’s break up, I don’t want to
marry you.”
Josh didn’t expect to provide for her carefully girlfriend would
say this.
He couldn’t help raising his voice, “Why?”
“I’m a graduate of a prestigious school, and I’m about to be sent abroad, but you don’t have a diploma,
so you can only work in a township.
Didn’t you realize that we are no longer from the same world?” John’s tone calm down.
“Why do I have no diploma, why can I only work in the town, don’t you know?” Josh only felt his heart
getting colder and colder.
“I didn’t force you.” John frowned, his tone displeased,
“I didn’t ask you to drop out of school to work for me to study, these are all voluntary.
I can return the money to you tenfold It doesn’t matter.
This time, I intend to draw a clear boundary in front of the two families.
From now on, everyone will return to the bridge, and the road will return to the road. When we meet,
we will act as if we don’t know each other, so as to show dignity to each other.”
Josh was silent for a moment, Opened, “Because the man who supports you now is richer than me,
isn’t it?”
The skirt on
John, the suit her father wore, and the necklace her mother wore were all expensive. He can see it.
“Anyone would choose this way.” John didn’t hide it,
“He drives a 30 million sports car, lives in a 600–square–meter villa, and has over 100 million bank
deposits. How do you compare with him?” “What
? Than?” Josh repeated these three words, and gave a low laugh,
“Four years ago, your father had a car accident, and your mother forced you to marry the old man as a
follow–up, and you cried and said, “You want to go to college, and you still have more money?” Dream,
I will give up my studies and work for you!”
”
Two years ago, you told me that your classmates wore brand- name clothes and looked down on the
miscellaneous brands
you wore. I worked two jobs just to make you dress more glamorous Bright.”
“A year ago, you complained that the paint you used for painting was too inferior, and the finished
product was not as good–looking as others. I got up early and stayed late, and bought you the best
paint and sent it to you.” “Now, you stand in front of me and say that
I You are not from the same world… You are right, you and are indeed not from the same world.
I, Walt, have no sense of shame, you, you don’t know! Get out!”
John turned blue with anger, stepped on high heels, and took his parents leave.
On the balcony on the second floor, Hedy looked at John’s
back, his eyes rolled coldly.
“Do you feel that love is fragile and easily defeated by money?”
Preston walked over and stood side by side with Hedy, his voice was magnetic and pleasant.
“Love itself is something vulnerable.”
Hedy stared at John ‘s back until he disappeared, with a hint of sarcasm in his tone,
“Except for money, power and life and death, it can be easily disintegrated.”
After so many years of performing missions, she has seen Too many life and death power junctures,
abandoning the so- called loved ones.
She looked down at the yellow orange in her hand.
These are the fresh oranges my elder brother bought for her at the market at three o’clock yesterday
morning.
She didn’t finish eating, there were a few left.
She lived with her younger brother since she was a child, but she didn’t know how to get along with the
Ellis Family.
But she wanted to protect the Ellis Family.
I don’t want the Ellis Family to be hurt or sad.
In the next second, Hedy saw a note with a phone number written on it.
“This is the contact information of the largest news platform in the United States, an authoritative
reporter with a sense of justice.
I think he should be very interested in the news of ‘a female college student abandons her boyfriend
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmwho supported her for four years“.”
Preston’s thin lips rose.
Public opinion is a weapon that can kill.
As soon as the news reports come out, John’s self–proclaimed bright future will bottom out
immediately.
Hedy reaches for it.
This is indeed a good way.
Preston raised his hand, avoiding Hedy’s hand, and raised his eyebrows lightly,
“You don’t want to give nothing, just take this contact information for nothing?”
“What do you want me to pay?” Hedy looked at him, nor
angry.
She and Preston have been communicating in a “transactional” way.
She rescued his grandfather, and he offered to sleep with him.
She protected his safety, and he provided room and board.
She was dressed as a maid, and he promised to make her a
710
cake every week.
She dances with him and he promises to make two cakes a
week.
Fair and fair, no debt to each other.
This “contact method” should also have something to exchange with it.
“Generally speaking, as the heir of the King Family, I don’t lack anything, and I don’t need anything
from you.”
Preston leaned against the railing, his tone full of confidence that couldn’t be ignored.
Hedy didn’t refute.
In Preston’s position, he really doesn’t lack for anything.
The rest of the money, power, and women that men dream of, he waved at will, and some of them were
offered one after
another.
“But I don’t have many friends. As you know, it’s too cold at a high place, and it’s hard to see sincerity
under the benefits.
Since childhood, my peers have approached me with purpose and used me.
I’m very lonely.”
Preston lowered his voice, gently Lowering his eyes, a lonely expression appeared on his heavenly
face.
“Understandable.” Hedy nodded.
It’s strange that people like Preston don’t encounter the situation he said.
“So, can you be my friend, the kind that has nothing to do with interests?”
He raised his eyes again and looked at her sincerely and expectantly.
