Chapter 257: The Old Butler's Last Words
readx;
There is no love without a reason in this world, there is no hate without a reason, and there is no effect without cause. If it weren't for Field's digging of Zhao Yue's wall footing in the public, if it weren't for Field's father asking a killer to kill Zhao Yue for his son, Zhao Yue would not have dealt with them, and they didn't know each other in the first place, because Field's frivolous behavior caused irreparable damage to himself and his family.www.biquge.info
After the butler was persuaded by Field to come back to rest, he thought about it alone in the room for a long time, if it wasn't for his lord to ask someone to assassinate the other party, things would never have developed to this point, of course he would not tell Field the truth of the matter, for this matter, he thought for a long time, and now he can only carry the matter down and give the other party an explanation, otherwise the family will be finished.
He was really reluctant to leave like this, although his son was able to study and live, and he was able to earn money to support his family, but he was not happy yet! hasn't seen his son start a family yet, but he has to leave, and he has to shoulder this responsibility, otherwise the family will suffer a catastrophe.
The butler took out a clean piece of writing paper from the drawer, spread it on the table, took out a pen from the pen holder and wrote down the whole thing, of course, he replaced the main messenger of the assassination with himself, without mentioning the old man at all, because there was no news from the killer organization, and after questioning Field, he learned that the other party had now gone to Spain and was still alive and well, he knew that the assassination had failed, and the other party must have found out that the mastermind behind the assassination was from their house before launching the attack.
Field was so naΓ―ve, he thought that pursuing that woman was a mess, and even if that woman was interested in him, what if he did? Would the woman's husband allow them to be together? Just from the fact that the Count of Lemmon made such a big scene in Berlin to greet the woman's husband, we know that the woman's husband is not trivial.
Who was Count Lemmon? One of the masterminds behind the two world wars, although they failed and everyone else was punished, he still lived well, not only well, but also very nourishingly, and his reputation in Germany was like sky.
Others don't know these things, but the housekeeper knows them very well, because his father is a member of the blood clan, and these are what his father told him, hoping that he won't provoke people who shouldn't be provoked.
If the woman's husband is not given an explanation, he will not give up, and the family is doomed to perish, which is inevitable. The butler's hope for death would appease the man's anger, and he didn't know if it would work, but he had to do it.
Field returned home the next morning, and his father was out of danger and lying in the hospital waiting to be observed, leaving two bodyguards in the hospital to watch over him, and he came back to see if he could help.
He estimated that now the family and the company have become a mess, and the housekeeper can only deal with the affairs of the family, and the company's affairs must be handled by him, the heir, otherwise the big and small people in the company will definitely not be satisfied.
"The young master is back, you haven't rested all night, right? I've made breakfast, you can eat some and go rest! A babysitter was cleaning up the hall when she saw Field come back and immediately said.
"Well, where's the butler?" Field asked, taking off his coat and hanging it on a hanger.
"The housekeeper hasn't gotten up yet, I really don't know how this housekeeper did it, how can he still sleep if there is such a big thing at home!" The babysitter complained a little.
"The housekeeper may have been tired yesterday, so let him rest more, let's have breakfast first!" Field said, sitting at the dining table.
When Field had finished his breakfast, he went back to his room to wash up and change into clean clothes, and when the butler had not yet gotten up, he went downstairs and asked the nanny to go to the butler's bedroom.
The nanny said yes, and put down her hand and went to work, and it was not long before the shrill scream of the nanny came from the butler's room, and Field was shocked when he heard this voice, and thought to himself, could something bad happen? He immediately jumped up from the sofa and ran to the butler's room, and when he was almost in the housekeeper's room, he saw the nanny stumbling out of the housekeeper's room.
Feld stepped forward and grabbed the nanny's arm and asked urgently, "What's wrong, what's wrong?" β
The nanny's face was pale, and she stammered: "Butler, he, he, he, young master, you can go in and see it yourself!" β
Falder listened to the nanny's words, his face changed, he had a premonition that something bad was happening, and hurriedly put down the nanny and rushed into the butler's bedroom.
Seeing the butler lying calmly on the bed, his hands crossed on his chest, his face bloodless, Field called out in a trembling voice: "Butler! β
There was no response, he walked over to the bed, stretched out his trembling fingers under the butler's nose, and was not breathing, Field's eyes blurred, and he grabbed the butler's rough, cold hand, knowing that the butler had been dead for a long time.
Field was sad in his heart, the housekeeper was the most affectionate in the family, he had loved him since he was a child, and his relationship with the housekeeper was closer than anyone else, he really couldn't think of why the housekeeper would do this?
He wiped his tears, and suddenly found a piece of paper full of words on the small table next to the bed, and reached out to pick it up to see that it was the last words written by the butler: "Dear Field, my young master!" When you see this paper, I think I'm dead! I had to die because I made a big mistake and the company was hit because of me"
Field was shocked when he saw this, how could this be? What's the matter with the housekeeper? He continued: "I am very anxious that you have been lost all day since you came back from Germany last time, and you told me that you like Miss Anne very much, and I know that you are sincere, you have never been so serious, and I cannot watch you go down without thinking about it every day, so I decided to ask the killer to kill Miss Anne's husband, so that you may have a chance to get close to Miss Anne."
Seeing this, Field's doubts were finally solved, no wonder Miss Anne said that night that I sent someone to assassinate his husband, she was very angry at the time, it turned out that all this was done by the butler, but the butler was for me! Butler, butler, even if you want to help me, you can't use such a method! Even if it succeeds, even if Miss Anne accepts me, will she forgive me if one day she finds out the truth of the matter?
Field held back his grief and continued to read: "Young master, I watched you grow up, although you like to play, in fact, your essence is not bad, and you are very talented, I do this in the hope that you can pay attention after you have Miss Anne, become mature, have a sense of responsibility, and take on the responsibility of the family, so I am happy, but things called me unexpectedly, the killer did not succeed, it must have failed, Miss Anne's husband is still alive and well, it can be seen that his husband identity is very unusual!" Young master, you don't have any chance, it's impossible for such a person to let his wife run away with others. Now you have two choices, first, as I told you yesterday in the hospital, you put down your posture and go to him to admit your mistake, and promise that from now on you will never bother his wife, Miss Anne, and ask for his forgiveness; Second, the company is about to collapse, and if you can't get the man's forgiveness, the company doesn't have any chance to turn over, and no one will lend money to a gentleman to turn over, unless the person is crazy! Even if this person is really crazy, will that person stop it? Bankruptcy is a foregone conclusion, and you may not only lose your inheritance, but you may also be saddled with a large amount of debt, and you will be deprived for the rest of your life, will you continue your long and arduous love journey?
I only hope that my death can calm that person's anger, and when you go to ask him, it will be easier for him to forgive your behavior, so that the company will be saved, you can rely on the company's elders to operate slowly, accumulate work experience, and when you have enough ability, you can develop and grow it, so that the master can get better treatment, and you can also inherit the master's life's hard work and show your talent! β
Seeing this, Field couldn't stand it anymore, he threw himself on the butler's corpse and cried, it turned out that the butler did not hesitate to use his life to calm the anger of Miss Anne's husband in order to cheer himself up, in order to keep the company, and in order to continue his family, but he faintly felt that the person who found someone to assassinate Miss Anne's husband was not the butler, and without his father's consent, would the housekeeper make his own decisions? You must know that the housekeeper has always been a very honest person, he will not do this without his father's consent at all, is it really his father's order? Even if it is, they have no right to blame him, they are all for themselves! Why did things turn out the way they did? Is it also wrong for me to pursue my own happiness?
Field threw himself on the butler's corpse and cried for a long time, crying very sadly, and I don't know when the police had come and carried the butler's body away, while Field was still in a state of dementia, and he did not come to his senses until the nanny came to call him dinner.
After a hasty meal, he rushed back to the hospital in the evening to visit his father. Sitting on the bench in front of his father's hospital room, Field kept thinking about what was going on, did he really want to apologize to that person? Do you really want to ask for his forgiveness? The company's affairs are urgent, there is not much time, if it is delayed for a few more days, the judicial department will come to the door, and everything is irreparable.
But to beg Miss Anne's husband and her rival in love like this, I can't do this anyway! Why would God allow yourself to make such a difficult choice?
Field looked up at Bunier and asked, "Buniel, you must already know what happened in your house, the butler committed suicide!" In his last words, he said that he had found someone to assassinate Miss Anne's husband, and that it was because of this incident that Miss Anne's husband launched a blockade of our company on the stock market. He asked me to beg Miss Anne's husband for forgiveness so that the company could survive, what do you think I should do? β
