Chapter 216 The Last One
Looking at the old man in front of her, another face that was about ten years younger came to mind.
“Grandpa Hobart…” Blanche Capra’s throat was hard, “how … how did you age to this look?”
Hobart, of course she remembered him. He was the original butler of his own family, and her father said he was master and servant, and more like a friend, a forgotten friend.
Hobart let out a long sigh, “Back from the dead, girl, are you too?”
Blanche Capra couldn’t help but wet her eyes, he’d explained everything with just four words, back from the dead. And the fact that he’d asked her back was enough to show that he’d seen himself like this and knew that he’d been through something similar to what he’d been through. But, but how could he recognize her at once?
Could it be that, like Lorcan George, the her that was remembered most fondly was in fact the one who had been her as a child? And this face now was quite similar to that of a child.
“Grandpa Hobart, you …” Blanche Capra couldn’t help but ask, “that year you were kicked out of THE Russell family by my dad, I thought … I thought it was dad who he …”
Hobart shook his head, “Of course not, your dad and I were such good friends, how could he have wronged me just because someone else planted it? It’s because he and I are such good friends that he …” Here, he let out another long sigh.
Blanche Capra look at his gaze reveals the emotion of reminiscence, can’t help but ask, “back then, back then, what exactly is the matter? the Russell family how to break the property? How did my dad …”
She looked at the old man across from her with seriousness and anticipation, hoping that he could answer all her doubts and return the truth to reality.
Hobart heard her ask this question, the light in his eyes flickered more and more, gradually out of a few hints of regret, pity, and helpless resignation. Blanche Capra ghost read the emotions in his eyes, but just as she held her breath and watched his mouth slightly open, about to say the words –
There was a thud out of nowhere in the dusk.
The old man in front of her throat spilled out not a word, but a cry of pain, and then … his eyes widened, and the red blood in them quickly filled the whites of his eyes, and Blanche Capra couldn’t react before he collapsed to the ground with a thud.
Bright red blood gradually spread out from where he fell.
Like a thunderbolt to the head, Blanche Capra’s mind was unable to think, knowing only that the man in front of him had been shot, shot …
“Grandpa Hobart!” she shouted, crying and crouching down.
Blanche Capra had a watery haze before her eyes, her hands grasped the man on the ground, but the aged man was almost a bullet away from life, and could not be stopped from approaching death.
Blanche Capra lifted her head and stared hatefully at a couple of burly men who appeared in front of her.
“Who are you guys?!” Blanche Capra almost lost her composure, “Using a gun to kill someone here, do you want to squat in a jail cell and be shot?!”This belongs to NôvelDrama.Org - ©.
The man in the lead laughed out loud, “I didn’t realize that the woman the boss was so concerned about was so naive!” Saying that, he approached Blanche Capra again and bent down to look at Blanche Capra’s face, “But naive women, this looks are all very good …” He made a movement, “Brothers. Take her inside!”
Blanche Capra looked at the ground where she lay. Hobart, who was no longer alive, closed her eyes in pain. And when she opened them again, she had to let a man come to her left and right, take her arms, and lift her right up, completely defenseless.
“What the hell are you doing?!” She roared out angrily.
In other words, in the face of such hostage-taking and siege, she could still calm down, but Hobart’s death just now had too great an impact on her. Hobart was not only the one who knew the truth of that year, but also the only one left in this world who was a family member in general …
He was just killed by the group of people in front of her!
The more Blanche Capra thought about it, the more hatred she felt in her heart. She and the Russell family owed Grandpa Hobart a lot, and if it wasn’t for the Russell family, Grandpa Hobart wouldn’t have gone through his so-called “escape from death” and become what he is now! If it weren’t for the Russell family, Grandpa Hobart wouldn’t be in this situation. If she hadn’t come to him today, he wouldn’t have survived and died!
Blanche Capra was filled with remorse and hatred!
Who the hell is that guy behind them? Who is that scum? If she knew, she’d make that man pay twice as much! She had long since ceased to be a forgiving, kind, and merciful person! She would make that person pay dearly!
Blanche Capra’s gaze was fierce, while the men looked at her like she was a toy, smiling with amusement. Especially the one who hit the head, he leaned over again, “I haven’t played with women for a long time, and I didn’t realize it until I saw you today, but it’s really because all those women are unbearable to look at!”
A minion on one side chimed in, “Boss! Then you have to enjoy yourself today! All of us won’t disturb you!” With that, he winked at the four or five people on his left and right, and was about to leave together.
The moment the door was closed, Blanche Capra still hadn’t recovered from her hatred.
“Ouch, what’s going on?” The man leaned over a little more, “Isn’t it just a dead person? It’s not like it was your dad …”
“You shut up!” Blanche Capra yelled.
At the moment she was still in the position she had been thrown on the ground, she watched as the man narrowed his eyes and appeared to be charging at her, she immediately stood up.
“What the hell do you want?!” She struggled to speak to the man, on guard against what he was going to do to her.
The man stood up as well and he smiled, “I want to make love to you, okay?”
Blanche Capra instantly felt hugely insulted, she resisted the urge to shake him and tugged hard on her fists, an icy to the bone expression on her face. She wanted to lash out, to hit someone! But reason told her that doing this wouldn’t solve anything at all, there were still several people watching outside, with her alone she wouldn’t be able to escape!
But this person … this person really makes her disgusted and angry to the extreme!
The man saw that she didn’t say anything, but instead reached out his hand to touch her face, and the moment his skin touched, Blanche Capra couldn’t hold back any longer, and directly kicked him in the crotch, hard, hard, almost as hard as she could.
The man cried out in pain.
The man outside the door heard the commotion and instantly rapped on the door, “Big brother, is something wrong?” But the man inside the house looked at Blanche Capra in pain while holding back the pain so much that he couldn’t even resist twisting his body to try to ease the pain in his lower body.
There were odd noises in the house again, and the boss was silent. The people outside assumed that something was really going on inside, and they immediately pushed open the door and rushed in.
Blanche Capra stood there properly, and their big brother … covered his lower body in pain, his facial features wrinkled together, and his face was white.
The group froze there for a moment.
And at this time, the man seems to have slowed down, directly rushed over and choked Blanche Capra’s neck, as his eyes became more and more red, his fingers tightened and tightened, Blanche Capra’s breath forced, his throat itchy and painful, feeling that the air and blood are swollen in his brain.
“Big brother! No way!” Someone came over to stop it, “President Charlie said to keep her alive!”
Blanche Capra’s eyes widened and her face went completely gray in an instant.
