Chapter 453 – Heart for Heart
People, many times they always look away.
Between the person who has now gotten his hands on and the person who can’t, once you have the right to choose, the choice is almost always the latter.
The unavailable people are the best. That’s exactly what’s happening with Moore Howard today.
In any case, even if Elena Lawrence is any better, she’s still alive and well. But his big brother, indeed, lost his life for real.
Elena Lawrence, let it be that I am sorry for you and the children in my life … murmured and opened his mouth.
Eyes closed, was completely drunk on the head to get sleep.Content (C) Nôv/elDra/ma.Org.
Seeing this bad guest pass out, the bartender wiped the sweat coming out of his forehead with a sense of relief.
“Eh, thank goodness, you’ve finally fallen asleep.”
This way the bartender wouldn’t have to serve this drunkard tonight, but it was destined that he wouldn’t be able to get off the morning shift tonight.
He only hoped that this seemingly honorable guest, after he sobered up tomorrow, could give him a little more money for his hard work on account of his dedication to taking care of him all night.
But don’t let him work all night and not get any tips.
Moren Howard had a dream that was so different from reality, with his wife Elena Lawrence and their children, that he longed for a family that was so happy that he didn’t want to wake up.
The dream was trivial, but it made the corners of his mouth unconsciously curve upward in an extremely beautiful way.
He slept on the bar for the rest of the night, only slowly waking up the next morning.
After looking at where he was, and then at the bartender who had fallen asleep on the bar, he pulled a large wad of cash out of his wallet and placed it on the bar under a glass of wine.
It was definitely more than he’d spent, and the rest of it was just a hard-earned paycheck for the guy at the bar.
In fact, Moren Howard was never a hard-hearted person, everything was just a matter of necessity.
If people can be good from the beginning to the end, who would not want to live a bright and sunny life, and have to go to the darkness of a trip through the endless muck.
After sobering up, he went home and took a shower to change into fresh and clean clothes, and then went out to continue working.
Reality didn’t allow him to dwell on his grief, he had a series of things to deal with.
At least in the board meeting three days later, he absolutely could not lose, he would not allow himself to make a mistake in this matter.
But the facts were always strikingly similar, after running around for days, those shareholders were like they had agreed to do so, and the answer that every single one of them gave him was a rejection.
The result is that he carried out in the board of directors, from beginning to end, only his own poor twenty percent of the shares to do support.
Instead, all the shareholders present in the meeting turned against Watson, and his face was extremely embarrassed in front of him.
He could never have imagined that he would be so humiliated.
What he couldn’t let go of was that this group of shareholders were not afraid of the handle he held in his hand in an instant.
After the general meeting was over, when the group of shareholders had all left.
Facing Watson, he asked, word for word, “How did you do it?”
“You must be wondering why they still flocked to my allegiance even though you have their leverage in your hands, right?”
Watson smiled slightly and spoke immediately afterward, “That’s because you’re too proud and arrogant, thinking that with this kind of tactic, you can make everyone follow your orders. You haven’t even considered that there is another word in this world called heart for heart.”
Moren Howard’s face changed drastically, “Heart for heart? Do you think I am a seven year old child? Would believe such a ridiculous statement like yours.”
In this world, hearts are fickle. Exchanging hearts for hearts is only believed by those who have not been exposed to the dark side of society. But once they were exposed to society for a longer period of time, they would also become one of the members in the big dyke of society.
It was something that no one could avoid, and that was what was going on inside him at the moment, true enough.
“I’ve learned about your experiences since you were a child, and originally you were also supposed to be unsophisticated. But the heart of hatred made you darken everything you see in front of you, and that’s what led to the twisted growth of your mentality today.”
“You say that you don’t believe in the idea of exchanging heart for heart, then I would like to ask you a question, why were you willing to give so much for Moore Howard? Isn’t it because he gave a true heart to you and let you feel what warmth is that you are willing to give so much for him?”
“Moren Howard, it’s better to settle a wrong than to settle an injustice. That’s all I’m going to advise you, and it’s up to you whether you listen or not. If you listen to me you will have a wonderful family to make up for the good you never enjoyed in the past.”
Speaking here, he couldn’t help but give a pause in his tone, and when he spoke again, his eyes already looked deep, “On the contrary, if you don’t listen to me, what awaits you will be even more painful and hard to accept than the eighteen layers of hell.”
After saying these words, Watson frankly left the scene, leaving the space behind him to the other party.
For the sake of Elena Lawrence, his goddaughter, he was also hoping that Moren Howard would realize his mistakes and end them, provided that everything wasn’t too bad yet.
Listening to Watson’s words, Moren Howard’s heart is not untouched, he is even beginning to hesitate and struggle.
Unfortunately, it would always occur to him that his hesitation was really ashamed of his dead big brother, and such a tangled process was simply going to confuse his entire nervousness.
Solely, he didn’t allow himself to be neurologically deranged. He still had a lot of things left to accomplish, and he definitely couldn’t fall down on that.
On the other hand, York Charlie and Blanche Capra made video calls with their baby girl every day to console each other for missing each other.
On this day, the little princess brought them a joyful news, that is, “Godfather Hobert Butler has found me a godmother here, a white-skinned, blue-eyed beauty, super, super good-looking.”
The little princess’s expression was so happy that she was clearly rejoicing that her godfather had found lifelong happiness.
“Then won’t you not be able to pester your godfather often in the future? Shouldn’t you give up your time to your future godmother?” Blanche Capra teased her daughter.
The little princess beeped and said back, “No, Mommy Tina loves me, she’s happier to see me than she is to see her godfather.”
Seeing this little one’s appearance, Blanche Capra wanted to pinch her daughter’s bulging cheeks through the screen and hug her to see if she had grown taller and heavier.
Unfortunately, that wasn’t a viable option in their chat conversation.
“Yes, yes, yes, yes, all of us are super fond of you, you’re a little princess to all of us.” Blanche Capra went along with the little one’s words, her usual smile spreading across her face.
There was no denying that even in just a few days, she would still super, super miss her flesh and blood.
A bond like flesh and blood couldn’t be severed no matter what happened.
The three chatted a little longer before hanging up, Blanche Capra snuggling into York Charlie’s arms, her soft hair flowing naturally down the other woman’s broad shoulders, as beautiful as a waterfall.
“York Charlie, I miss our baby girl so much, what can I do? I want so badly to be there for her tomorrow.”
“Go to bed early so you can see your daughter in your dreams.” York Charlie said this with the utmost insincerity.
It caused Blanche Capra to raise her hand and squeeze a lump of flesh on his waist hard.
“Hiss …” York Charlie cried out in pain.
