Chapter 26: Father and Son (2)(2/2)
Everyone was watching him.
"Since you were a child, you did a lot of things, but you didn't have anything done. Nothing was. The only achievement was probably to become the adopted son of the Lich King. This is God's favor for you. Now many people are talking about you. I have attended the Brotherhood these days and they have also asked you. I used to think that you would change because of this, but now I think that this may be a bigger disaster, maybe." Count Dracula said slowly with gritted teeth and gritted his teeth.
As he said, his tone was full of anger: "Look at what you did? The identity of the Lich King adopted son only gives you a chance to make greater mistakes. You can borrow money from the bank because you are the adopted son of the Lich King. Can you borrow money from Adal or because you are the adopted son of the Lich King. In the past, you could only make trouble at your own house, but now you are starting to go out to cause trouble, right? I thought you will make progress after six years of leaving home, but now it doesn't seem to be true?"
Jones's clenched fists were already trembling, and tears couldn't help but fall down.
Hiding in the distance, Adale took his escorts to watch secretly.
"I really don't know how I gave birth to a son like you." Earl Dracula held his forehead, sighed, and widened his eyes and scolded viciously: "You are still going to be a slave to Hydra? As a superior blood clan, why do you want to be a slave to Hydra? What about your dignity? Do you know that it can swallow you in one bite at any time! Even if it is exposed now, do you still lie to me? There is a gold mine here? What other people from the Cappadocian family want to help you build a refinery? Ah? Answer me!"
The wind was still blowing gently, and the surroundings were quiet.
Everyone was looking at Jones silently.
With his head down, his body trembled slightly, as if he was sobbing.
After a long time, Jones replied in a faint voice: "I have told many lies, and I have been lying almost all the time."
"What?"
Just as someone was watching, Jones suddenly raised his head, looked straight at his father, widened his eyes and shouted: "I'm lying almost all the time, I've told many lies!"
The Countess looked at her child in surprise.
Earl Dracula was stunned.
With his eyes widened, Jones gritted his teeth while gritting his teeth, "I have told a lot of lies, because no matter what I tell the truth or the lies, you will not believe it. One of the lies is that I have recognized my mistake."
Pointing at Susan, Jones's voice suddenly raised octaves and shouted: "I have been lying, including her affairs! I hate her very much, very annoying! I would rather not marry a wife than want her to be my wife! I have never reflected on the indecent things about molesting her! Because I have never done it at all! I was wronged, but you believe in her! There are countless such things!"
Count Dracula slowly opened his eyes.
Everyone around looked at Jones in surprise.
Susan took a step back carefully.
Gripping my teeth, Jones continued, "Why do I never tell you the truth? Because you stop everything I think! Everything! You think everything I think is a joke! But to be honest, I think what you think is a joke! What should I do? Should I marry and go through the eternal years quietly? Like you? Stare at two mineral veins every day? Attend various boring parties every day? Swipe time in meaningless communication? Then what is the meaning of my existence? Maybe I will fail, but that is better than dying in silence! I am willing to pay for it!"
It was the first time Jones had spoken to his father in this tone for so many years. He knew very well that what would greet him might be a storm. However, he still wanted to say what he had kept in his heart for so many years.
After saying that, he seemed to be exhausted, staring at his father in a daze, shed tears, and retreating step by step.
"I am very grateful to you, really. It was you who gave me life, but that doesn't mean I have to listen to you in everything, nor does it mean that I must live the way you want. I want my own life. In the past, I would submit every time you get angry, but this time I won't. I really won't. Even if you want to expel me from the house, even if you want to deprive me of my last name, I will stick with it."
"You're crazy." Looking at Jones who had completely lost his composure, Earl Dracula slowly shook his head and approached step by step: "I'll take you back and lock you up now, so that you can reflect on what mistakes you have made!"
Everyone else present was silent.
"No! I won't go back!" Jones roared hysterically, turned around and ran.
"Go back with me!" Count Dracula flew forward.
Just as his hand was about to touch Jones, Jones suddenly soared into the air. It did not turn into a bat, but soared into the air in a human form.
With his head raised, Count Dracula suddenly saw the Hydra.
Yes, the Hydra, who was originally listening quietly in the distance, was already close at some point. One of its heads was holding Jones' collar in his mouth. The other head slowly bent down and looked at Earl Dracula and said softly: "Sir, I don't really agree with what you just said."
