Chapter 126(1/2)
Then Harold told about Ling and Colin.
Harold said: "The thing is, our couple had a daughter, and that was seven years ago."
"Ah." Lloyd said.
Ellie said: "What did you mean by that one?"
Harold: 'Well in an unfortunate accident, no, it was not an accident, the child was actually killed by us."
"Huh? This is it?" Randy said.
"Eight years ago, when I was still a novice trader, I tried desperately to survive in the growing Crossbell trading market.
Eventually, I started to get involved in dangerous things. As a result, I was saddled with huge debts and lived a life of escape with my young daughter. No matter where I fled, people would catch up with me. At that time, we had no place to stay.
, if things go on like this, there will definitely be no good end in the end, so we were worried about this and sent our daughter to the home of an old friend.
That is a worthy and trustworthy friend. We plan to pay off all the debts and put on clean and decent clothes to welcome our daughter back.
Fortunately, with the advice of a reliable lawyer, we were able to clear our debts. We relied on hard work and connections to re-establish our careers. We worked desperately and paid off the debt in full one year later.
Qing, so that we could finally see our daughter and live together as a family of three again. With this idea in mind, we visited the friend's house where our daughter was staying. As a result, it was said that it was a bizarre fire.
Chaos occurred frequently around the country, and my friend’s home was not immune to it, and because my friend’s home was in the suburbs, I wasn’t discovered in time.”
"In this way, our daughter who lives there was also involved. We searched frantically for her, but basically all the bodies were too horrible to look at. In the end, we only got the result that no one in the family survived.
In this way, we lost our daughter forever, and lost the treasure that nothing can replace. We only have despair in our hearts. While pushing our children to the fate of death, we don’t know what the meaning of living is.
In this way, the two of us were ready to die together, but at that time, we found out that my wife was pregnant with Colin, the child's younger brother. The reality is that after knowing this, we found each other again.
The courage to live.”
"In order to prevent another failure, we only engaged in reliable and serious businesses. After Colin was born, we slowly settled down. However, during that time, we had been deliberately avoiding and avoiding the death of our daughter due to our own incompetence.
The pain of avoiding the sins we have committed."
"This is the mistake we made as a couple. Sorry for telling this long and boring story." Harold said.
"Nothing." Lloyd said complicatedly.
"Well, what should I say?" Ellie said.
Randy said: "It's such an unfortunate thing."
Sophia said: "However, as the child grew older, we saw the shadow of our daughter. Unknowingly, we began to be tortured by a sense of guilt. It would have been better if we had not let go of those little hands at that time.
"
"No matter how painful and difficult it is, it would be great if we could get through it together as a family. Such regrets have always haunted us."
"So, we decided to believe again and firmly believed that Colin was born precisely because of the guidance of his dead daughter and goddess." Harold said.
"So our family must live a happy life. We firmly believe that this is the only way to repay our daughter, although I am very clear that this is a very selfish reason."
"Mr. Harold," said Lloyd.
Tio said: "I think this is also a way of thinking."
Randy: "Yeah, it's a lot better than being stuck with weird regrets."
Harold: "Thank you, but there are really incredible things in the world. The little girl who reached out to Colin must have the same hair color as me.
"The child, our dead daughter, also had violet hair."
Ellie said: "So."
"Well, it's like returning from heaven to save Colin. If you find that little girl, can you please contact us?" Sophia said.
"We want to formally meet with her to express our gratitude."
Lloyd said: "If we contact her, we will definitely tell you."
Later, when Colin woke up, it was already dusk and Harold and the others left.
The four returned to Lloyd's room.
"They're gone. Come out. It's okay." Lloyd said.
Ling opened the cabinet and walked out.
"Ling." Tio said.
Lloyd said, "Is this good? If you chase me now, you should still be able to catch up."
"No, that's enough. Now Ling has one less reason to come to this city, so that's enough." Ling said.
"Really?" Lloyd said.
Ellie said: 'How could it be? This is enough. No matter what Ling thinks, you should do it.'
Randy said: ‘Forget it, miss, there are things in the world that ordinary people can’t imagine, and this is not something that others can interrupt.”
Ellie: "Yes, but."
Tio: "I feel the same way."
Ling said: "You don't have to put on such an expression. I'm fine. Thank you, Brother Lloyd. You have removed one of the stones that hindered Ling."
"Really, it's my honor to be able to help you." Lloyd said.
"Well, everyone, I will definitely repay you for your kindness today, so Ling will say goodbye here." Ling said.
The four of them, Lloyd, chased after her, but still couldn't catch Ling.
"Is this really okay? Don't chase her and take her in?" Ellie said.
Lloyd said: "Well, of course I have considered it, but I always feel that this is not our mission."
Randy: "?"
Tio said: "Do you have any other reasoning?"
Lloyd said: "No, it's not reasoning so much."
At this time, a familiar voice came.
"Um, is there anyone there?"
Several people returned to the first floor and saw Estelle and Joshua.
‘Hey, hello, I’m sorry for dropping by unexpectedly without contacting me beforehand.’ Estelle said.
Joshua: "Although I may have disturbed you, there is something I want to confirm immediately. Can I take up some of your time?"
"It doesn't matter," Lloyd said.
Randy said: "What is it?"
"Is there something about the underground auction?" Tio asked.
Estelle: "No, that's just on hold. Compared to this, this afternoon, we got an eyewitness report. It's said that Lloyd, you were walking with a certain person."
"Someone?"
"It's a girl with violet hair, and that girl should be wearing a white dress." Joshua said.
Lloyd said: "Um, are you talking about Ling?"
"Sure enough!" Joshua said solemnly.
Lloyd: "Please wait a minute, do you have anything to do with Ling?"
Joshua nodded and said, "Yes. Although we haven't met each other for several months, she is indeed in Crossbell."
Estelle: "Haha, great, okay, that's it. I'm going to let go this time. Even if I turn the whole Crossbell over, I will definitely catch you."
Randy: "Ah, that little girl is so popular."
"Yes, Jonah is also chasing after her. She is really popular." Tio said.
"Well, that child is not a guerrilla, after all, she is too young, and she seems to be doing all kinds of dangerous things." Lloyd said.
Joshua said: "Yes, she is indeed not a guerrilla."
Estil smiled and said: "She is the most important family member to us. For more than half a year, we have been chasing that child in order to catch that child and make her our family."
Lloyd said: "Family?"
Ellie said: "It seems there are really many stories."
"Well, it's indeed a long story." Estil said, "After coming to Crossbell, I roughly figured out the matter."
Joshua said: "Don't be depressed. This is a critical moment. We have also collected information about Harold and his wife, so we can open the child's heart."
"Yes.!" Estelle said.
"Um, do you know Mr. Harold and the others?" Lloyd said.
"Ah, it's them, why do you know."
"No, this is because of some reasons." Lloyd said.
Ellie: "It seems best to explain what happened today from beginning to end."
