Chapter 57: Father's Love
Dogs's wish came true, and he finally met Murdan himself, but tonight was obviously not a good time to communicate, and even the lavish dinner party was greatly reduced after Yag returned.
Everyone was waiting for Roque, and Doggs and Martha were a little worried, because the other party had been sitting expressionless for a while.
In the end, do you want to eat, or whose home is here, how can it feel like a noisy person.
The Duke was very quiet at this moment, lying on the table without making noise or noise, looking like a high-quality monster.
"Honey, why didn't Lord Barrow come?" Martha was the first to break the silence, asking a non-nutritious question.
At this time, everyone's eyes fell on her, even Roque.
"Quack?"
The duke yelled at each other a few times, which always made people feel very incongruous.
"Brother Barrow has dinner at Randolph's, and I'm afraid they have a lot of things to discuss in the evening. Doggs pressed his forehead and explained, and his gaze fell on the Duke.
With his logical reasoning ability, without Roque's introduction, Doggs has already concluded that the middle-aged man is Murdan, but what is the big toad in front of him and where did it come from, he can't figure it out.
"Everyone is here, let's eat. ”
Roque stood up, his face relaxed, and the previous solemnity had long since disappeared.
"Mr. Roque is right, today's dinner is quite sumptuous. With that, Martha hurried to the kitchen.
Doggs also got up, he looked at Roque, smiled and said, "Then are you still in the mood to drink tonight?"
"To celebrate your safe return, of course. Roque smiled and nodded.
The saying that food is silent does not work at such a large dining table, where the white candles illuminate the surroundings very brightly, and the dining table is a great place to make friends.
Under Roque's introduction, Murdan and Doggs officially met, and the two agreed directly to find a time to communicate.
This kind of thing Luo Ke will not stop, it belongs to the romance between swordsmen, except for wine and women, I'm afraid that's it.
It's really hard to explain the duke's guy Roque, looking at Doggs's posture of breaking the casserole and asking the end, he can only use the word pet to deal with it.
"Roque, cheers for our friendship!"
After solving all his problems, Doggs returned to his true nature, and for him, it was time to drink with his friends.
The atmosphere of the dinner party is gradually being pulled back into place, and although Yag is unable to participate, Roque puts aside the affairs of the village for a while and drinks with the host, Dogs.
At night, it is a time of dark and silent dating, and once there is no light and no sound around, they will be as intimate as a couple in love.
The house is the foundation of the home, and those happy and happy things always revolve around it, even if it is the same house, each one feels different, because the owner has a different temperament.
In the bustling area of the town, the lights are generally bright at night, and there is a two-story western-style building with a tower-like roof that gives people a strange feeling.
In fact, there are several similar houses around, but this one is special precisely because its owner is Enoch.
As one of the most unpopular figures in the small town of Miral, Enoch has always been the representative of the opposite, and he is steadfast in his duty.
The town of Miral needs light, so Randolph stands tall, and similarly, the town of Miral needs darkness, so Enoch appears.
Eerie and cold are the first thing this house feels, so don't expect any guests to come and visit the owner, and the warmth of the bustling area won't save it.
The interior of the house follows a classical style, but the décor and furnishings are so old that they look completely nondescript, which in part reflects the owner's slamming and flattering taste.
Only the aging chandelier in the hall still glowed, and it emitted a lonely dim light, contributing a small amount of power to the gloomy house.
Enoch, as a powerful person in the small town of Miral, has a law enforcement court in his hands, and he shouldn't be so unstylish, but his residence is so unsightly, perhaps, the people in the town should come and see, and then reflect on themselves.
Quack, squeak.
In the hallway on the second floor, a little girl in white pajamas gently pushed open a door, and she quietly walked in.
In this bedroom, there were no furnishings, only a desk with some books and pen and paper on the table, a candle burning alone, and the old god Enoch sitting on the floor in a chair with a glass of water in his hand.
"Dad, what are you doing?"
It was a lovely little girl, twelve or thirteen years old, with waterfall-like pale yellow hair tied into a ponytail, two shallow dimples and her sweet smile.
"Ellen, are you done praying?"
Perhaps it was only in front of his daughter that Enoch showed a gentle and kind face, and he placed the glass on the table and beckoned to him.
"Uh-huh, Daddy, do you still have to work?" asked Ellen as he sat on Enoch's lap.
"No, I probably won't have to work for a long time. Enoch ruffled Ellen's hair and whispered.
"Then can you take me out tomorrow, we haven't been to the street together in a long time. ”
Facing his daughter's expectant eyes, Enoch shook his head slightly.
"If you want to hang out tomorrow, I can ask Linda to take you. ”
"Okay. A look of disappointment flashed in Ellen's eyes.
Everyone has their softest place, even Enoch, a poisonous snake, whose wife died young, and his daughter is all he has.
It's just that he is used to being withdrawn, and in addition to work, he spends very little time with his daughter, so that Ellen can only stay at home most of the time.
Maybe many people have forgotten that this nasty person has a cute and well-behaved daughter.
"Dad, today Master Roque of the Black Thorn Manor is inviting the little girl to coffee in the town, if there is still tomorrow, can I go and drink it?"
"Of course you can, but you have to thank them when you're done. ”
"Great, thank you Dad, I will. ”
After getting Enoch's consent, Ellen happily kissed the other person on the face.
"Ellen, would you like it if we moved to Morpheus City?" Enoch asked earnestly as he reached out and touched the other's head.
"Daddy, are we moving? Is it the same as Miral?" Ellen was a little curious, she hadn't been to Morpheus City yet.
"It's different, it's a big city, it's very lively, there's everything, I'm sure Ellen will find a lot of friends there, and if possible, we'll move as soon as possible. Enoch had a smile on his face.
"Uh-huh, I'll go wherever Dad goes, let's not be separated. Ellen nodded her willingness to move, but she also made her own small request.
"Of course we won't be separated, so now you should go to sleep, or you won't be able to get up tomorrow. Enoch gently lifted the other man from his lap.
"Good night, good night, Dad, you should go to bed early, too. ”
"Good night Aelle. ”
Looking blankly at the other party's departing figure, Enoch's expression was gloomy, and his eyes showed reluctance and worry.
