Chapter 15 Chapter fifteen

For the next week, Luo Lin was busy taking care of everything.There is no evidence of his crime left in the office.He terminated the tenancy of his apartment in Soho, packed his bags and bought a ticket to Liverpool.It was only four hours by sea from Ireland. Although he doesn't know what the future holds, he is definitely better than his past life.He is eager to face the future and put aside the past.He hadn't seen Lan'er for several months, and he missed her more and more every day.He looked around the room.This is his last night here. There was a knock on the door.Luo Lin opened the door.It was Mrs. Tang, the cook at the Bowman mansion.He naturally assumed that Mrs. Tang was sent by his father to find him.

Good night, Mrs. Tong.If my father sent you to find me, I'm afraid you were wasting your time. No, Master Luo Lin.It's Miss Emerald. Emerald?Luo Lin asked, puzzled. She sent me to find you.Mrs. Tang whispered, almost afraid to speak out. where is she? Boman Mansion, Master Luo Lin. Portman House?What the hell is she doing there?Luo Lin asked aggressively. She's in a bad situation.She has been back for a week.Please, Master Luo Lin, don't tell me that I came to find you. Luo Lin grabbed the cloak.let's go. They put her in the servants' quarters.Doctor Shi connected her broken leg.

She broke her leg?How did it happen?When Mrs. Tang opened her mouth, he was even more startled. I dare not say, Master Luo Lin, but her husband's temper is really bad. They called a carriage and hurried back to the Bowman mansion as quickly as possible.After arriving, Mrs. Tang quietly walked around to the servant's entrance at the back of the house to enter the house, while Luo Lin walked forward and knocked hard on the door.Ironically, he had thought he would never set foot in this home again. Beton seemed pleased to see him when he opened the door. is that true?my sister is here?Luo Lin asked.

When the porter led the way to the cook's room, Luo Lin's anger kept rising.When he saw Fei Cui lying on the bed with a pale face and an unbelievably big belly, he almost cried out of his voice.He took his sister's hand.Emerald, my God!What did they do to you? Emerald gratefully held his hand back.Luo Lin, I am pregnant with twins. Luo Lin's eyes widened in disbelief.Oxion abandoned you!That vengeful bastard isn't content to use me to get back at them, he has to use you, and I'll kill him!God help me, I'll kill him! No, Luo Lin!No more revenge, I beg you! I didn't know you were here.I was on my way to Ireland when he brushed his hair impatiently.You can't stay here.But your current situation also makes it impossible to travel with me.

She flinched, and lifted the coverlet to reveal the splint holding the broken left leg in place.As much as I hate it, obviously I have to stay here a little longer - at least until my baby is born.Dr. Shi came twice and he would deliver my baby.Once my labor started, Mrs. Towne would go to him. Mrs. Towne hinted that Roger broke your leg. He tried to push me downstairs and cause me to miscarry.It was his father who stopped him and sent for a doctor. Suddenly, the anger and fear that had left Luo Lin earlier all returned.Not for himself, but for his so helpless and vulnerable sister. Lorin, when the baby is born and my feet are healed enough to travel, I want you to take me to Wicklow to see my mother, and she says if you need her help, you must let her know.

The anger in Meng Luolin's heart was high.He would go to Ireland, but to Lyce Castle, not Wicklow.He'll hold the Irish bastard responsible for Emerald!Oxion bankrupted the Meng family, but he enjoyed Earl Guilt's property and title with ease!Luo Lin vowed to make him pay the price. Luo Lin struggled inwardly.He doesn't want to leave Jade with her vicious husband Roger, but he knows he can't help here.Jade looked like she was about to go into labor, and he had to move fast.Luo Lin made up his mind. He kissed Emerald's forehead.I love you.Try to take a break to regain your strength.He leaves to find Beton.

Is Roger here?He was aggressive and could barely contain his rage.He needed someone to vent his anger on, and Roger was the perfect one. He's not here, sir, we haven't seen much of him this week. Luo Lin gritted his teeth in frustration.Where is my father? I'm waiting for him, he usually comes home late for dinner. Luo Lin went to the kitchen and handed twenty pounds to Mrs. Tang.This is all the money I have on me, if Emerald needs anything, do it for her.If Dr. Shi cannot arrive when she gives birth, you can find another doctor or midwife.Don't let my father know you have the money, or he'll take it.

Luo Lin opened the front door, almost unable to believe his good luck.Roger was walking up the stairs slowly. For the first time in his life, Luo Lin felt the desire to devour blood, and that feeling was intoxicating.He waited until Rojack had reached the top step and slammed his fist hard across the face.Roger fell backwards, rolling down the steps.He fell to the ground, one foot twisted unnaturally. Luo Lin raised his right foot wearing a thick boot, and stepped on Roger's knee joint without regret, until he heard the sound of bones breaking, and then he bent down and grabbed Jack's blood-stained tie.Next time I won't have your leg broken, Roger, I'll have your life cut off!You'd better not touch Emerald with a single finger!

The person who taught Luo Lin to be brave and ruthless spent the day alone in Leith Castle.No one has dared to approach him since his return from England.All the servants in the castle, from the steward's boy to Burke in charge, wanted to know why Emerald didn't come back together, but the Earl's gloomy and gloomy expression made no one dare to ask this question. Theon avoided everyone, hiding himself behind a wall of gloomy silence.He was silent to all who approached him, and others had to avoid him, respecting his desire to be alone. He straddles the demon and gallops down the hill without seeing it.The icy rain had turned to hail, hitting him in the face, but he rode on like crazy.Immersed in his dark thoughts, he has no sense of the outside world.He abandoned Jade in London, but her image haunted him.She was there in every waking moment, and when he finally fell asleep, his dreams were filled with the need for her.He's trapped in a cage he's woven.He stole her from the Meng family and made her his perfect companion, only to abandon her in the end!

trust me!He had told her that over and over again.And she not only gave her trust, but also her love.Extreme contempt for himself, until he could taste the bitterness.He couldn't forgive himself, his soul seemed to be swallowed by darkness. Suddenly he cursed loudly, then laughed at his own stupidity!Drowing in useless self-pity and reminiscences won't make him respect himself.He knows himself and has to accept him as he is.Easier said than done, I reciprocated her love with lies and betrayals, and he was lost in dark thoughts again.He doesn't have the ability to love, maybe it would be better for Jade to leave him.

Finally, Oxion, who was drenched and cold to the bone, returned to Leith Castle.The bad weather here suited his thoughts, and it was purely because the demons couldn't take it anymore that he set out on his way home. When he was wiping the horses, the barn boy was always far away.He walked into Ge Weishidong through the back door, and then walked to the kitchen.When the servant saw him, the birds and beasts dispersed immediately, and the aisle was so empty that only the sound of his own footsteps could be heard. He went into the dining room and was surprised to see Raymond sitting in front of the fire waiting for him. If Muhammad does not come, the mountain will come, and if the mountain has to come, Muhammad will have to come.Raymond sneered. Theon's face was expressionless, his silver eyes half closed. why do you avoid measked Raymond. I'm not the right companion.Theon answered bluntly. where is she?Raymond asked. Theon raised his eyes and looked directly at his father.She's back in the arms of her family -- with an Irish bastard in her belly. Why?Why?Lei Meng roared sharply, suspecting that he didn't recognize the man in front of him at all. Theon glared at his father.His reasoning should be so obvious that a three-year-old can understand it.They made you suffer through your women and I just fought back. Don't say you did such a horrible thing because of me! Not for you, but for her, Irene is the soul of all of us, she is the center of our being.I swear a sacred oath at her grave, I will take revenge through the woman in their lives! Raymond grabbed the fire fork as if to strike his son with it.This evil method just desecrated her memory!Your mother is the embodiment of all that is good and good.She is crying in heaven that you did something like this in her name.I want my grandson--her grandson--even if you don't, he yelled, putting down the torch.Burke, get me out of here! Theon stood naked in front of the bedroom fire, his forehead resting on the oak hearth.The flames danced and crackled, as if mocking his dark thoughts.He had already drank most of the bottle of whiskey, but he was disgustingly sober. Katie!he growled, then realized she wasn't coming to serve him.He hadn't seen her since the night he came back from England and found the cradle in the master bedroom and they had had a yelling and cursing.As if to punish him for ordering her to remove the cradle and everything emerald, she pursed her lips.Complete his orders, but avoid seeing each other ever since. Theon's heart was cut like a knife.He needs to touch something that belongs to emerald.The need was so strong that he rummaged through the drawers and found the key with difficulty.He hurried across the room and opened the door. Her fragrance still seemed to linger in the room.He opened the wardrobe and knew that it contained her beautiful silk pajamas.He pressed it to his cheek almost reverently, but his fingers touched something hard and cold. He felt nauseous.His mind loudly denied what he had seen.He forcefully opened the drawer and took the things back to his room. Among the silk and lace pillows were the diamonds and emeralds he gave her—in order to appease the guilt of betraying her.Cold fear gnawed at his heart.He left her in London penniless, unable even to support himself and her children! Luo Lin disembarked in Dublin, rented a horse, and galloped eastward to Galway Stone.It rained continuously along the way, but it couldn't quench the raging anger in his heart at all.When he saw the magnificent mansion, he was ready to fight. It was late, but the house and stalls were still lit.He got off his horse and recognized the tall figure who had just entered the stable.Ossian. Luo Lin threw down the reins, did not try to wipe away the rain in front of him, and threw his fist at the surprised Theon.His fist hit Theon's jaw, and they fell to the ground together.They rolled, Lorin trying to hit Theon again, and Theon trying to avoid his angry fist. Theon didn't want to hurt Luo Lin.This boy is definitely not the opponent of Theon who grew up fighting with the Fei and Mo families.He didn't try to fight back, he rolled aside, separated the two, grabbed a pitchfork and stood up, pointing at Luo Lin with the pitchfork, forcing him to back up.Luo Lin kept cursing. You beast, I originally respected you very much! I used to respect myself too!Theon's voice was low and mocking. I can understand your determination to take revenge, and I can even understand your humiliation of emeralds, but you should not leave her alone, without protection, I am here to settle accounts with you! Jade didn't send you, he said in a flat, lifeless voice.She is too proud. Who taught her?Luo Lin said bitterly. She doesn't take my money, she sends them back! God, her situation is very critical, she has no choice! Theon's grip on the pitchfork relaxed.What the hell do you mean?Tell me quickly, Luo Lin! Put the damn thing down! Theon dropped the pitchfork.Come back to the house, you're soaking wet.He unloaded Luo Lin's saddlebag and ordered the servant to take care of his horse. Luo Lin took off his wet clothes in front of the fire.Theon showed him the jewels.These are emerald.Believe me, to this day, I thought she carried them with her, and Xi Yu recalls them arguing over the jewels.He distinctly remembered asking her to promise to keep them.You have no money of your own, and this necklace will give you some financial security, he had warned her.But then came her answer: My darling, you are the only security I need. Luo Lin looked directly at him.If she'd known you were taking her back to Portman Mansion, she'd have taken the damn things with her!You didn't tell her, did you? Theon almost wanted to answer: That would be kinder, but he swallowed it.That's not kind, it's just easier.After I found the jewel tonight, I have sent to Mammoth to gather the crew of the Hellfire, and we set sail tomorrow morning. Luo Lin breathed a sigh of relief, as for whether he persuaded Theon or Theon made his own decision, it didn't matter anymore.The important thing is that he has to go back to pick up Jade.But the relationship between Luo Lin and him is not over yet.Finally, Oxion was the untenable side this time, and it felt so good. In your ruthless pursuit of revenge, have you ever wondered what they will do to Jade? Those bloody Meng family are no match for her! Yeah?Were you his match the night they killed your brother?Joseph is it? Theon grabbed the empty wine bottle nearby and threw it at the fireplace.Jade is his daughter, she should be precious to him! precious?Luo Lin smiled.Apparently she never told you about her life with my father.She was scolded, punished, controlled, all the time, until he broke her nerves!She married Rojack at her father's behest because she couldn't resist!She lived a life of imprisonment! Theon's blood ran cold, and Jade had never complained about a bad day, but he just knew it.Jade, like him, was deprived of every ounce of freedom.So he has always taken pleasure in freeing her from the shackles.It had given him great pleasure to watch her gradually awaken, to the lively, fiery woman they had first met. Suddenly his body froze.Luo Lin would never have come here if something happened to Jade.He hardly dared to ask, for fear of hearing the answer.He felt terrified, and he thought he no longer felt anything. what did they do to her Jack tried to push her downstairs, causing her to miscarry.She saved herself, but also fell and broke her leg. Fear engulfed Theon. My father's doctor came to see her and said she was pregnant with twins. Theon's fear deepened.He looked at Luo Lin angrily and in disbelief.And you left her in this predicament! No, you bloody bastard, it's you! When Dr. Shi was called again to the Bowman mansion, he did not expect to be splicing another broken bone. Broken bones seem to be contagious.He said bitterly to William Meng, who was pacing up and down the room irritably, cursing everyone in the family. Rojack howled loudly in pain, cursing the servants loudly.When Dr. Shi advises him to behave with dignity like Jade, he turns to yelling at the doctor. I have to take medicine to put him to sleep.Doctor Shi said to William. Is that necessary?William roared.I need him to stay awake.We have something important to talk about - business matters - We must wait, Doctor Shi cut him off.You have plenty of time to talk.He was unable to walk for at least several weeks. No one was taking care of Emerald before, and after Jack broke his leg, there was no way to take care of her.She ate very little, and Mrs. Tang didn't have much time to cook for her.For a few days, she was alone. Fear of ignorance is scary, Fei Cui resolutely told herself to focus on dealing with today, and worry about tomorrow's affairs until tomorrow.She told herself she had two choices, let panic take her sanity, or deal with the situation as calmly as possible. Women have been giving birth since the beginning of time.She told herself that even with dozens of servants at her disposal, she was the one who endured the pain of childbirth.No one else can serve her.Her pregnancy has been going well and her morning sickness has not been severe.She is physically, mentally, and emotionally strong, and she believes that after the birth of her child, she will regain her physical and mental strength in no time.Her leg was no longer hurting either, and she figured it was almost healed. Besides talking to herself, she spent most of her time praying.She prayed for help: strength, and forgiveness.She spoke to her children and told them everything was fine.She described happy times in Ireland, whispering to them about their father Theon, Earl of Guilt Theon was like a beast imprisoned in a cage, constantly pacing back and forth in the room.The wait for the crew to arrive seemed endlessly long.As soon as they got there, we set sail, high tide or not. It was you who sailed, Luo Lin corrected calmly.I can't go back, I've cut off my retreat.Father must have known by now my part in the whole thing.Before I left, I punched Roger and broke his leg on purpose. I would enjoy doing that.Theon was savage. You will have a lot to do.Your responsibility is to Jade and mine is to Laner. Ferran?Theon's silver eyes challenged. Laner is my wife.She was pregnant with my child and I had ignored her for too long. your wife?Theon's eyes were furious.When the hell did all this happen? You're so bent on vengeance that you can't even see what's right in front of you.We got married in Galwaystone, and Father Fei married us. How dare you engage in these plots behind my back?Am I the only one who doesn't know?Theon strode across the room and grabbed Luo Lin's collar. Luo Lin roared: I can't let her have an illegitimate child, and I love her. Luo Lin's words were like a heavy punch to Xi En's face.His shoulders slumped and his hands relaxed. There was a knock on the door.The two turned their heads together.It's Pembroke. Captain Fei and his crew have arrived. Thank God!It was the first time Theon had mentioned God's name in five years.We sail tonight! Burke cleared his throat.Katie and I are ready to leave with you.We know you'll go back and get her. Theon looked at him in surprise.He hadn't seen them for nearly a week, yet he knew his every move, his every thought.He was so moved by their loyalty and support that he had a humble thought.They didn't do it for him -- they did it for Emerald. Emerald's labor pains began before dawn, and she was not prepared for the pain in the slightest.Mrs. Tang assured her that she would get Dr. Shi, but she came back empty-handed.Dr. Shi said that the first child always takes a little longer, and he will come back later. As a result, the time was twelve hours, and Jade cried, screamed, cursed, prayed, and finally passed out!Then a sharp pain woke her up and the cycle started again. During this time Jade cursed her father, her titular husband, her mother, Theon, God and herself.Mrs. Tang was always by her side, reassuring her and reassuring her, even though she was also terrified inside. At five o'clock in the morning, Dr. Shi finally arrived late.When he saw Jade writhing wildly on the bed, he ordered Mrs. Tong to tie her feet to the bedposts so she wouldn't hurt herself or the doctor. Not long after, Fei Cui was gripped by an unbearable intense labor pain, she screamed and passed out, and Dr. Shi delivered a little baby girl.He took one look at the pale, lifeless baby girl before handing her to Mrs. Towne without any instructions. The kind Mrs. Tang has prepared hot water and a lot of clean cloths.She washed the skinny baby girl and murmured repeatedly: Poor little thing.The little baby girl didn't cry, just struggled to breathe. Doctor Shi washed his hands and dried them.I went up to see another patient. You can't leave her, doctor, she's unconscious!Mrs. Towne protested loudly. It could be hours before she has another one.When the labor pains started, she would naturally wake up. When William Meng returned to the Portman mansion, he was already furious. For the past few days, he had been in the shipping office, trying to salvage something in the stormy Meng Shipping.Now there is only one ship left, the Seagull, and a ship of coal mines consigned by Newcastle. This afternoon, two lawyers representing the Liverpool Shipping Company visited.The check they received from Bayesian Bank did not cash.They told William Meng that they would seize the ship as soon as it reached London, and that the Liverpool shipping company would definitely take legal action for damages. William was already very angry that Luo Lin stepped on and broke Jack's leg on purpose, and now he began to suspect that Luo Lin had done more than that.The little brute just seemed to disappear, and he obviously had a good reason to get away.Being betrayed by your enemies is to be expected, but being betrayed in your own bones is ungodly!He seemed to have aged ten years in the last few months, and he felt very old, bitter, and miserable. Beton told Dr. William to be upstairs. I didn't smell food aromas from the kitchen.William said. yes sir.Mrs. Tom spent the whole afternoon with Miss Jade.She has been in pain all day. William's mood grew worse.The shipping office had been his only safe haven for the past week, helping him escape the sick at the Bowman mansion.Home was supposed to be his castle of rest, but now it was occupied by patients who brought nothing but humiliation, trouble, and a mountain of bills to pay. William looked upstairs impatiently, and glanced at his watch again.After a long series of curses under his breath, he went up to Roger's convalescent room.His wailing and complaining could be heard in the aisle. You water nephew who only sucks blood!Here to live a life of adequate food and clothing, but not lift a finger to stop the betrayal around me!cried William, entering the room.He turned to Doctor Shi.God, give him a sedative, stronger!I can't stand his crying, whining and whining. Suddenly all three men in the room heard a woman screaming. Let her suffer enough!Jack said bitterly. I must go down and see her.Doctor Shi spoke. Jack had a fit.She's just having babies, my God!I'm in terrible pain, doctor! We all have our own cross to bear.Doctor Shi sympathized and smiled wryly at William. The two went downstairs together.How long will this take?William asked, regretting returning home very much. It shouldn't be too long.I delivered a baby before you arrived.Another one I'll make as soon as possible.You're not the only one who wants dinner, William Meng. The girl on the bed was in intense labor pain.She was sweating all over, obviously exhausted from the day's tossing.Her spirit was lax, her face was as pale as paper, and she was panting in bed. Doctor Shi slapped her hard on the cheek.Push hard, woman, you have work to do! Fei Cui slightly opened her eyes, and was seized by the terrible pain.She opened her mouth to scream, but there was no sound.Let me die, let me die, she prayed. Push, woman, push hard!Dr. Shi ordered, and she seemed to do as she felt as if she had been ripped out of her body by a surge of unprecedented pain, followed by an intense release.A loud cry echoed in the small room, and Dr. Shi murmured: Well, this one is very healthy. Oh, it's a little boy, praise God!Mrs. Tang said, and hastily took the bloody boy from Dr. Shi's hands. Doctor Shi washed his hands and looked at the baby girl.Mrs. Tang has wrapped her up and put her at the foot of the bed.Unfortunately, she was still breathing.Dr. Shi closed the medical bag and walked into the room.William Meng was waiting on the aisle outside. You'll be glad to know this abomination is over, Mr. Meng. Have you found a place for the baby already? Yes.Fortunately, only one survived.I'll come over tomorrow morning to sign the death certificate and take the other off your hands. Very good, Dr. Shi, I will accompany you out.Obviously don't expect to have dinner here tonight. In the small room, Mrs. Towne looked at Jade, wondering if she had heard the terrible thing they had just said, but the girl was exhausted and seemed oblivious to her surroundings.Mrs. Tang had always known that William Meng was a big bastard, but now she found that he was no better than a beast, and Dr. Shi's heartless pig was no better.She wished she had found a midwife for Jade.Maybe that won't help the little baby girl who is not strong enough, but at least she will help take care of Jade. Mrs. Towne cleaned and wrapped the baby boy, and he kept crying.Mrs. Tang didn't have time to scrub Jade.She pulled down her nightgown and placed the baby boy at her breast.Immediately the baby boy sucked loudly at his mother's milk.Jade still appears to be in a semi-comatose state.Her complexion was very bad, and she was pale. Mrs. Tang stretched her limbs and rubbed her aching back and shoulders.She started to look after Gu Fei Cui just after dawn, without resting for a moment, she pulled a chair beside the bed, sat down and stretched her old bones.She looked worriedly at the baby girl at the foot of the bed, then at the mother of the twins. She knew what she should do, but didn't know how.She watched Jade close her eyes and prayed she fell asleep.In the end, Mrs. Tang decided that she was helpless, and everything could only be handed over to God.
