Although Dodge is a devil, he is also a rare filial son. He once searched for famous doctors everywhere to cure his father's illness.
In the end, the fact that his father was cured through prayer and confession in church seemed ridiculous to him for a while, but the fact that his father was able to sleep peacefully made him think that perhaps the spiritual comfort had worked.
However, looking back now, another possibility is more likely.
"You think the church sold potions to relieve your father's pain." Ye Lan pointed out the key point.
Dodge nodded heavily and said with absolute certainty, "Texas is full of churches, but not all of them are sacred. My father used churches to get things done back then, and the reverse is very likely happening now."
It's just that the Dodge family is very famous in Texas, so few people dare to cause trouble in the church.
This is what is called the darkest place under the lamp.
"If that's the case, then you must immediately stop your father from taking the medication. It has a high carcinogenicity rate." Huang Weian, who had witnessed Miyata vomiting blood, also put aside the class gap and became genuinely worried.
Norben's concerns are on the other hand.
"If it's really the church that's behind this, then there must be a larger force behind it. If you act alone, you're like an egg against a rock. Maybe even your father will get hurt."
After all, the Dodge family started from scratch and had no background. Compared with the real class aristocracy, they were just a sharp knife.
However, no matter how difficult things are, Dodge will not let his father go to his own death.
After thinking it over, he gritted his teeth, looked up at the girl opposite him, and said solemnly, "Lan, I know my father is not a good man, but can you please lend a hand? If you can save his life, I swear as the future heir of the Dodge family that the Dodge family will never again commit evil."
This was the heaviest promise he could make.
Ye Lan looked at the young man in front of him who bowed his head deeply. Although he knew that the law of black and white was also naturally generated and he did not expect evil to completely disappear, he thought that the other party's vision was good and coincided with his own goal. So he simply nodded and said, "I promise you."
The next day was the weekend.
Dodge brought Ye Lan and his group back to the manor villa in the suburbs in the name of inviting classmates home.
The car drove into the beautiful European town, with low houses on both sides and wide fields. The green lawn and the blue sky were connected in the distance, which was refreshing to look at.
"This is the manor my father bought later. He said he wanted to recuperate. The air and scenery are really nice."
After arriving at the entrance of the manor, the car drove into a cherry orchard. The trees were already full of fruits. The red cherries looked sweet and delicious. There were many gardeners working inside picking them.
Seeing Dodge's car, the gardeners stopped and saluted.
Dodge was halfway through introducing his classmates when he suddenly frowned and asked the driver to stop the car.
The car stopped next to an old woman.
The car window rolled down, and Dodge said gloomily, "Joan, why are you picking cherries here?"
The old woman before him looked to be in her eighties, her neck sagging, yet she was still struggling to carry a basket. Seeing Dodge, a kind smile appeared on her wrinkled face, and she said comfortingly, "I was just feeling bored, so I thought I'd come out to pick some things and take a walk."
Dodge didn't believe her and called the supervisor to question her.
"Young master, this was not my idea. She made the mistake herself." The supervisor naturally did not dare to hide anything from the future heir of the Dodge family and told him the truth in detail.
It turned out that the old woman was punished because she broke a beloved teacup of her master's family.
"What a crappy teacup! My father only started drinking tea in the past two years." Dodge slammed the door in anger and yelled at the driver to drive directly to the main courtyard. Before leaving, he did not forget to warn the supervisor to help the old woman to rest.
The old woman was the servant who had taken care of Dodge since he was a child.
However, before the storm broke out, when they arrived in front of the largest villa in the manor, they saw a beautiful woman sitting in the yard and crying.
"Mom!" Seeing this, Dodge didn't even bother to greet anyone else. He pushed the door open, got out of the car, and ran to his mother on the swing. He hugged her distressedly and asked, "Who bullied you? Tell me, I'll go get him!"
"Son, why are you back? Oh, I forgot today is the day you come home from school. I saw I was so busy that I didn't even prepare lunch for you." The beautiful woman wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes, stood up hurriedly and wanted to go to the kitchen. It seemed that she really had forgotten the time.
"I'm not hungry." Dodge held her back and pointed at her red and swollen eyes and said, "Tell me, who did this?!"
His vicious look was quite similar to his father's when he was young, which frightened the beautiful woman so much that she subconsciously covered her arm and shook her head to deny it, "No, no one bullied me."
Dodge could see that she was dodging, so he pulled her arm and lifted her sleeve, revealing crisscrossing purple bruises on it.
"Don't tell me this was dropped? I can still tell the difference between a fall and a beating." His tone was calm, but his fingers were trembling, and it was clear that he was on the verge of exploding with anger. And as the mistress of the manor, there was only one person here who dared to use violence against her.
Seeing Dodge turn around and rush out of the villa gate, the beautiful woman hurried to hug him, stopping him while crying, "Don't go, child, your father was just careless, he was sick, he didn't mean to hit your mother."
However, Dodge didn't listen at all. He pried her hands apart and rushed into the living room like a mad lion.
When Ye Lan and others entered, everything in the living room had been smashed.
