Chapter 247: Free Frannie
While Torture Blade was busy with the affairs of the Calamity Mother, Farni was sitting leisurely in the living room of the Rhodes family. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
Sitting across from her was a gloomy-looking Brown.
"Do you know what the consequences are!?" Brown looked at his own daughter with a look of anger.
Frannie blushed and said, "What can be the consequences?" I've now become a true hero of the entire Apocalypse City! Then the entire Rhodes family will also be honored with admiration. Isn't your wish to have a true family hero to raise the family's historical status? β
"Stupid!" Brown snapped to his feet and yelled in a low voice.
At this time, Job hurriedly said, "Father, stop being angry! Calm your anger! β
Frannie retorted, "How stupid!? β
Brown gritted his teeth and said, "Are you confused!?" This will only make our family die faster! β
After saying that, Brown pointed outside and said, "What's the use of those civilian comments!?" You go and listen to what the aristocratic circles have to say about us now? You're framing and killing Spark! You've now killed your fiancΓ© with your political tricks! And now, the Baruka family, who had already started working with us, has completely interrupted our deployment in the Greedy Wolf Division. Even Jem was killed! β
Frankie was stunned after hearing this, "Jem is dead?" β
Brown gritted his teeth and said, "He's been missing for over 24 hours!" It must have been disposed of by that old thing in Sharu! β
Frankie sneered, "That old thing is really ruthless. β
"Laugh! How can you still laugh!? If you do this, our Rhodes family's reputation will be completely notorious. Who will dare to marry me in the future? Now there is a tradition in all aristocratic circles that our family has a tradition of murdering fiancΓ©s! β
After hearing this, Frannie said calmly, "What does the development of our Rhodes family have to do with them?" As long as we are strong enough, the bunch of waste will naturally shut up. Don't forget our family's ancestral motto, once money rings, bad words come to an abrupt end. β
"You, you!!" Brown was speechless.
Frannie looked at her father and asked, "Do you want to give me away as a bargaining chip, as a tool for marriage?" What is the purpose of your marriage? Isn't it just for profit? Well, now that I have brought you more powerful benefits than marriage, why would you marry me off? Are you so afraid that I'm going to fight my brothers for inheritance!? β
Hearing Frannie's words, Brown's face turned red with anger, and he angrily stepped forward and raised his hand to hit Frannie's face.
Call!
Frannia is not an honest person, and her body briskly dodged Brown's slap and said, "What?" Do you feel any pain? I know you're afraid of my talents. I'm afraid I'll have too much power. Because there is another training in the group, only the men of the family will take over the family business. But it's a pity that the wheel talent is much better than the two elder brothers. So you're afraid that I'll ruin your ancestral teachings, so you've been trying to marry me off, right!? β
Brown slowly lowered his hand and stopped talking. At this time, Job talked and said, "Father also has his father's difficulties. β
Frankie said with a cold expression, "He has a problem, so he wants to impose his problem on me?" You are my father, not my master. I am your daughter, not your slave. I've been working for my family for so many years and proving that I have the power to go beyond the stakes. But this proof has become the best evidence that you think I am ready to fight for power. The more I try to prove it, the more suspicious you are of me. Haha, the relationship between father and daughter can reach this point, and it is really unprecedented. β
Suddenly, the huge hall fell into a cold and dead silence like winter.
"You've seen this a long time ago, so you've been living on your own, not in the family, even if I'm forced to marry you off one day, right?" Brown asked in a low voice.
Frannie nodded, "Yes!" Over the years, I've been juggling between Rocca, Jem, and Spark, so that my freedom can be preserved now. And now, I've found my true partner and direction. It also brings the heroes you need to the family, and brings glory to the family! β
"I got rid of Spark! I qualify for my own freedom. I want to live according to my lifestyle, and I want to experience this colorful world with my eyes and body! I don't have any interest in your so-called legacy now. I will still bring more glory to my family, because it is my duty to Frannie Rode. However, I am no longer the pawn you say you throw and change. β
With that, Frannie turned around and slowly left.
"Where are you going!?" Job asked hurriedly.
Frankie said lightly, "It has nothing to do with you anymore, father, brother." I found a trusted partner who could give me everything I could do. β
Away from the family, Frannie felt very relaxed, as if she felt like she could fly briskly.
Taking a deep breath of air, she had never felt so free, so unrestrained, so free.
"Uncle Song! Inform the Ancient Dead! Sitting in the car, Frannie said casually.
After a few seconds of silence, the young man in front of him yesterday said, "Miss... Mr. Hu takes care of him..."
Frankie was stunned for a moment, then leaned back in her chair a little lonely, and muttered, "Oh, yes." Uncle Song is dead, really dead. β
Thinking of this, the feeling of freedom just now disappeared in an instant, and was replaced by a faint sadness, emptiness, and loneliness.
Hu Song died, and the person he trusted the most died. Sparky is gone, and the person he hates the most is about to die. Jem is gone, and so is the person who was most of a threat to him.
The sudden change made Farni a little confused for a while, not knowing what to do.
"It turns out that true freedom is closely linked to emptiness and loneliness." Lenny muttered.
At this time, the driver asked, "Miss, are you going back to the villa?" β
Frankie came back to her senses and said, "Go to the hotel where Gu Ming is staying." β
"Good!" The driver said and drove in silence.
In the hotel, Torture Blade was lying on the couch, his eyes closed, thinking about his mother's problem.
Although Torture Blade has not seen the mother of the disaster, in the sporadic memories inherited by Oviz, some clues of the mother can be seen more or less.
"First of all, the original mother can be understood as a hen that can be ordered. After that, it continues to grow in size by absorbing and assimilating the object. In Ovitz's memory, it was the size of a mountain. But there's a core here. As long as you find that core, there is no problem. β
Tortureblade was thinking in his mind when he suddenly heard someone coming at the door.
His ears moved slightly, and after listening to the familiar breathing rate, his face moved slightly, and he turned into the black-faced youth.
Knock knock...
"Gu Ming, can I come in?" Frannie's voice rang out outside the door.
Tortureblade got up and walked to the door, looked at Farney standing there alone, and smiled and said, "Of course there is no problem. β
Frannie smiled and walked into the room.
Sitting down on the couch, Tortureblade poured a cup of coffee for Frannie and asked, "What's wrong?" Look at your complexion is not very good. β
Frannie nodded, muttered a little, and said, "I had a showdown with my father." β
Hearing this, Torture Blade was stunned for a moment, and then said with a smile, "Isn't it very comfortable to release the things that have been suppressed in your heart for many years?" β
Frannie smiled and said, "Very comfortable indeed." It's just that Uncle Song's death made me very uncomfortable. β
After hearing this, Torture Blade sighed and said, "Life and death are fateful, and wealth is in the sky." Although there are some superstitions, it does show the impermanence of the world. β
Frannie looked at Tortureblade and asked, "You seem to be used to this kind of parting?" β
Hearing this, the old hunter sounded in Tortureblade's mind, remembered Tiangan, remembered Xia and Shire, and finally remembered Oviz, and then said with a hint of bitterness on the corner of his mouth, "Indeed, I have been through a lot. β
Frannie looked at the side of Tortureblade's face, and suddenly felt some relief and joy in her heart. Because, here and now, she has been alone all the time, and she can actually share the bitterness and sadness in her heart with someone who has had a figurative experience with her, a feeling she has never experienced.
The hand gently held the big hand of the torture blade, for the first time in his life. She genuinely extended her hand to another man.
"Thank you so much this time." Frankie looked at Frankie with a hint of mist in her eyes.
Seeing this hazy look, Torture Blade suddenly became vigilant in his heart, and held his heart and smiled and said, "Thank you, we are partners." It is the obligation of partners to help partners. β
Frannie looked at the reserved appearance of the torture blade that did not take advantage of herself, and the evaluation of the torture blade in her heart suddenly rose to a higher level, and said sincerely on her face, "A person like Brother Gu who is trustworthy in his word, this is the first time in my life to appreciate it, I really admire it!" β
Torture Blade laughed and said, "Integrity is the foundation of human beings, in such a world where human nature collapses." Trustworthiness and sincerity are even more important. I'm a person who usually takes the initiative to trust others. But there are only two kinds of people who really get me to believe. β
"Which two?"
"No. 1 is a friend who treats me sincerely."
"What about the second one?"
"Naturally, it's dead. Haha, people who treat me sincerely will warmly reciprocate my sincerity to them. And those who do not keep their word naturally have no need to live. Torture Blade laughed.
Hearing this, Frannie's heart jumped at first, and then she felt lucky for her wise decision once again.
"Such a terrifying person, if he really wants to kill someone, it is estimated that only the Martial Saint and the Mad King can resist the entire Apocalypse City." Frannie exclaimed in her heart.
After exclaiming, Frannie looked at the torture blade sincerely and said, "Brother Gu, today I, Franny Rod, have officially become the closest ally with Brother Gu. Co-prosperity and co-loss! β
Tortureblade's eyes lit up, then he turned around and picked up the glass, poured it and said, "For the closest allies!" β
"Cheers!"
