Thriller Paradise Chapter 7: Barton’s predicate
"Master Dennis exclaimed to the master excitedly...'Everyone can tell that the woman married you for the purpose of robbing our family's property. Only you are still in the dark. You are already confused. I was fascinated by her. I won’t watch this happen. If you don’t want to erase her name from the will, I’ll find another way by myself!’” Patton repeated in imitation of the client’s tone, "After the master said this, the master roared loudly, and then the gunfire rang. I was so shocked that I almost fell off the tree. Fortunately, I was close to the trunk, in time Hugged and slid down. Later...I ran into the house and met everyone in the corridor on the second floor."
This Barton seems to be an honest person, the city is not deep, just a little gossip. It is natural for the servants of the wealthy family to be interested in the host’s ugliness.
Feng Bujue believes that Barton’s description may have added oil and vinegar, but the basic meaning should not be much different. So, Ge Ge tentatively asked, "That is to say... Do you think this'find another way" is..." He wiped his neck with his hand.
"Um..." Patton nodded, his eyes widened.
"This is a bit arbitrary, right." Feng Bujue said, "When I was in the hall earlier, I thought their relationship was not tense to the point of death or death."
"No... you don't know anything, Mr. Feng." Patton leaned forward and said, "I have been a gardener here for eight years, so I know something more or less..." The soul of gossip seemed to be ignited, and he narrated seriously: "Mrs. Audetta married the master seven years ago, when she was only twenty-eight years old, while Master Colston was fifty-five years old. You should know what outsiders would think of this kind of marriage between old couples and young wives......"
"Yes...a pear blossom pressed a begonia." Feng Bujue continued. "Beautiful..." He had a fascinating expression on his face.
"Uh...what did you say?" Barton asked in confusion. It seems that the translation function that comes with the system can't convey Feng Bujue's meaning.
"It's nothing, I just thought of something irrelevant." Feng Bujue changed a serious expression and brought the topic back: "I think, even if you don't say it on the surface, in most people's minds, I still think...Mrs. Odetta married Mr. Lovecraft for money."
"Yes." Barton replied and continued, "So you should be able to guess. The reaction of the three children of the master when they heard the news."
"Three children?" Feng Bujue asked, "Anyone besides Dennis and Jack?"
"Yes, the master also has a daughter, Miss Nancy." Button added. "Master Dennis and Master Jack are both children of the first lady, and Miss Nancy was born to the master and the second wife."
"Miss Nancy is in this villa now?" Feng Bujue asked.
"Not there, but she should be here today." Patton replied, "Actually, only the master and his wife are here. The eldest master and his wife live in the city. Miss Nancy works in Vienna, and the second master... They seem to have no fixed place. But at this time of year. They will come back and stay until Thanksgiving before leaving."
"Hmm..." Feng Bujue quickly took care of the family's situation in his mind, and then said, "Understood...Please continue."
"Okay." Button continued. "When the master announced that he was going to marry the young Ms. Odetta, the family naturally thought that this woman came for the master's property. Of course, at that time Master Jack was busy being a rock star, and Nancy The young lady is still in college. Although they are quite critical of this matter, they are not completely unacceptable."
"But Dennis' attitude is more intense." Feng Bujue followed the other party's words.
"That's right," Button said. "I'm about the same age as Young Master Dennis, I actually understand him. If I also have a rich father who wants to marry a stepmother who is five or six years younger than me, I will object."
"In short, the contradiction between the two of them has been foreshadowed since then, right?" Feng Bujue said.
"Yes, so over the years, the relationship between Master Dennis and Mrs. Odetta has been very tense, but on the surface they have pretended to be very polite." Patton replied.
"Oh..." Feng Bujue groaned, "I heard that now... the focus of the problem seems to be Master Corston's will. Do you know anything about that?"
Barton heard the words, recalled for a few seconds, and said: "Well...that was...three years ago in the winter. One afternoon, the master suddenly suffered a stroke in the study. Although he was finally out of danger, he continued In the days, he had to be with crutches. This was undoubtedly a heavy blow to the always healthy master. After that, his physical condition became worse and worse. A few months later, he found one. A lawyer, made a will..."
Feng Bujue interjected: "Could it be... his wife made him stand up?"
"Uh...I don't know about that." Barton said, "But Master Dennis seems to think so, and he argued with the master many times because of the will. I remember once they quarreled very fiercely. The entire house heard the young master shouting in the house,'That woman is a witch! She should be tied to the torture frame and burned to death!'"
"Hmm..." Feng Bujue thought for a moment, and then said: "Then...why do you... tell me these things?"
"Because I really don't know who to turn to for help, Mr. Feng." Barton said with a sad face, "I was really frightened by the master shooting today, and so is what Master Dennis said... I think this continues. There must be something wrong. The master and the wife treat me well on weekdays, and I don’t want to see any of them suffer accidents or commit life-threatening behaviors." He paused, "I watched in the corridor before. When it comes, you seem very calm in the face of emergencies~IndoMTL.com~ I can tell from your eyes that you are an amazing person. That’s why I’m here to tell you this, I think, maybe you can talk to The master or the young master have a talk and persuade them not to do stupid things."
When Feng Bujue heard this, his expression still didn't fluctuate. He was silent for a while before he said: "After all, I'm just a passer-by who was in a car accident in the mountains. They were at Lovecraft's family. I’m not qualified to dictate the family affairs."
Barton lowered his head, showing a disappointed expression.
Feng Bujue continued: "In my opinion, you are a little nervous, Mr. Barton. Everyone will say a few words of anger...especially when emotions are out of control." He spread his hands. " Witches and fire torture are obviously metaphors. The phrase "find another way" may refer to...with the help of litigation." He stood up and patted Barton on the shoulder, "Don't worry. Mr. Button, nothing will happen..."
"Ah--" A woman's scream suddenly sounded, interrupting Feng Bujue's words.
