Chapter 90: Entering the Ground for Peace
"I ......" Before seeing Ian, Clayton could frankly deny Lucy's accusations, but in front of Ian, and the other party, Monica, was also beside him, Clayton was speechless in the face of Lucy's accusations.
For the first time, Frank also knew that Monica and Clayton had a leg, and although he didn't particularly care about it, he still said to Monica in disbelief, "You're not!"
Monica hurriedly explained, "That week in the summer of 1995, I got some days @ make fans, and I was confused all day long, and I don't remember what happened!"
"What? You actually sucked the sky alone behind my back? We once swore that we would never go behind each other's backs and enjoy these drugs alone!" Frank was angry, very different from Lucy.
Seeing the strange gazes from Fiona, Lip and others, Frank still spoke up, "You sucked the sky behind my back, and you got together with Clayton, how can I still trust you?"
"I didn't beg you to believe me, and this time, you came to the door and begged me to come back!" Monica said.
"Was it Frank who went to find you? he always knew where you were?" Fiona asked when she heard Monica's words.
Monica spread her hands, Frank saw Fiona's questioning gaze, his face was also a little sneering, quickly changed the topic, took two steps forward, came to Clayton's side, shook his head and said to him, "Oh, Clayton, you are really my good brother, you did such a thing behind my back and Monica! You hurt me seriously!"
Hearing Frank's words, without waiting for Clayton's reply, Lucy first broke free of Clayton's hand and walked away quickly.
Clayton wanted to catch up, but was stopped by Frank, "I know, Peggy gave you a sum of money before he died, you give me back that money, and we will settle it!"
"Get out of the way, Frank!" Clayton said to him, shooting Frank in the eye, word by word.
"Before Peggy died, I was taking care of her, and you didn't do anything, so how can you sit back and enjoy it?" Frank said persistently.
"I said, get out of the way!" Clayton said.
"Okay! we can talk about this later, I'll get back to you!" Seeing Clayton's eyes that were about to burst into flames, Frank resolutely admitted, got out of the way, and let Clayton go.
Lip didn't expect that the problem of Ian's life would erupt on this occasion today, so he could only pat Ian's shoulder speechlessly.
Ian was also a little confused by the situation he had just learned, and he didn't react for a long time to figure out what was going on.
Clayton and Lucy came and went, and they didn't even see Grandma Peggy for the last time, let alone attend the memorial service that followed.
Fiona and Lip waited for a while, and when it came to the appointed time, Grandma Peggy's youngest son Wyatt was still nowhere to be seen, and they didn't wait long, and sent Grandma Peggy's body to the incinerator according to the appointed time.
Coming out of the funeral home, Grandma Peggy's urn occupies the trunk, and there is no place for Frank in the car, and everyone ignores him, ignoring his jumping and swearing, and drives away.
Back at the Gallagher House, Lip and Ian took matters into their hands and buried Grandma Peggy's ashes by the backyard wall, allowing her to be buried in the ground, and planted a homemade cross on the door as a marker.
Although the acupuncture points in American cemeteries are not as high as in China, they are not cheap, and the Fiona siblings, who have just entered the middle class, still uphold the fine tradition of saving if they can.
Presumably, Grandma Peggy won't bother too much with them.
The memorial service that was originally planned to receive the Frank brothers is now only attended by one family, and Frank, who is still alone in the funeral home, is nowhere to be seen, but these things have not affected the holding of the memorial service.
In fact, Fiona, Lip, Ian, and Monica, as well as Liam, who is not yet sensible, don't care much about this memorial service, and the reason why it is held is mainly to take care of Debbie and Carl's emotions.
During the time when Grandma Peggy stayed at the Gallagher House, Debbie and Carl enjoyed a rare grandparent affection, and they were the most affectionate to Grandma Peggy.
However, with Peggy's grandmother in the ground, Debbie and Carl's emotions soon recovered.
In order to clear their minds as soon as possible, Lip proposed that in the afternoon, everyone should send him to the University of Chicago to visit the campus and feel the atmosphere of the university.
This proposal received a positive response from Fiona and Monica, Debbie and Carl were also very interested, only Ian, I don't know if he was immersed in the injury of Mickey in prison, or if he had not yet recovered from the news that he was not Frank's biological son, and his spirit was a little sluggish, and he did not act with everyone.
The University of Chicago was founded in 1890 by John D. Rockefeller, an American oil magnate, and has a history of more than 100 years.
Although it is not on the list of "Ivy League universities", the University of Chicago is also one of the top universities in the world, especially in economics, with 40% of the Nobel Prizes in economics related to the "Chicago School of Economics" with the University of Chicago as the main body.
The world's first nuclear reactor was also built at the University of Chicago.
The University of Chicago is located in the Hyde Park area south of downtown Chicago, adjacent to Jackson Park to the east and Washington Park to the west.
The Gallagher House is located on the South Side of Chicago, just west of the University of Chicago, almost 10 kilometers away from the University of Chicago.
With his own car, it was much easier to go out, Ian didn't go, Fiona, Lip, Debbie, Carl, Liam and Monica, just filled a car.
The trunk contained Lip's belongings that he had already prepared—a few pieces of clothing, most of which were textbooks.
