Chapter 27: Emma wants to talk
What is that action? Suddenly, Gavin startled Alden.
“What’s wrong? What are you doing? Suddenly I put on headphones for myself.” Alden was truly confused and bewildered by his brother’s unusual, abrupt behavior. He asked and reached out his hand intending to remove what was in his ear.
“It’s okay, I think you should relax a bit. A symphony will help you feel better.” Gavin explained, gripping Alden’s hands tightly, preventing him from taking off his headphones.
Seeing that Alden seemed bewildered, Gavin added:
“Listen to me, don’t let trivial, unworthy things affect your mood. Give yourself the time to fully enjoy the joys of life.”
Gavin’s idea was very good, that’s why after a moment of hesitation, Alden nodded. Actually, Gavin just didn’t want Alden to see Emma. Knowing her out there, Alden would satisfy her anyway. That’s how it feels to tell Gavin. And he really doesn’t like that at all, so Gavin must, by all means, keep that from happening.
With a satisfied smile, Gavin told him:
“I’ll be right back.”
With that, he got out of the car, while Alden played his favorite music. The time for relaxation to be awakened begins. Alden closed his eyes, trying to blend in with the music. Fortunately, Emma had only been disruptive so far, not shouting loudly, attracting Alden’s attention. Although the car is soundproof from the outside, sounds such as screams and loud bangs can still be heard, if the occupants of the car concentrate or have good ears.
Gavin proudly walked over to Emma, loudly shouting:
“Hey girl, what do you want here? Don’t suddenly destroy other people’s property. Do you believe I put you in the police station to sleep overnight? The amount of compensation for property damage is not small.”
He really didn’t want to see Emma’s bad side, but he was reluctant. Wrong actions, and unpleasant attitudes, who can accept? Gavin wanted to be tolerant, wanted to forgive Emma. But she just likes to cause trouble, doesn’t know when to stop, does actions that make others inhibit, and how can he be a good person.
“Gavin, I want to talk to Alden.”
Emma paused, glaring at him pitifully. She did not even regret pleading. All these expressions were far from what he had thought. Gavin thought Emma would poison her mouth, say harsh words to curse, curse him to match the character’s psychology: “Please, Gavin, please allow me to talk to Alden. Allow me, please. … Please have mercy…”
Tsk tsk, Gavin clicked his tongue. Really tired of Emma’s one-color acting. Gavin angrily interrupted her cheesy, disgusting line. Acting for someone else, but he has no interest in enjoying a piece of trash.
“What are you going to do, meet to ask for Alden’s forgiveness? To play the miserable, pitiful wife until now?” Gavin used a venomous tone, mocking: “Check yourself to see if you are qualified to talk to Alden. After all, you’ve done, aren’t you ashamed, but shamelessly ran here? Being a human has to know when to stop, especially with repentance. Look, are you human? Or have you lost your dignity as a human, when you sold your soul to the devil and become a slave to the wrong?”
Not stopping there, Gavin added, sincere advice:
“You should go to church and ask your father for holy water, to wash your ragged, sin-stained soul. God will forgive those who go astray and return to him.”
Helen’s family originally believed in cause and effect. Therefore, the members live a very moral, holy, and charitable life. Except for Alden, he was a lost sheep, lost his way. But his family never abandoned him. And because of that, Emma hated this family, especially their good faith. That prevented and sabotaged her evil intentions toward Alden.
“Don’t be so mean. It’s not my turn to judge.” Emma could not bear the harshness of her brother Alden, immediately struggled, and did not want to act anymore: “You have no dignity or authority.”
“Everybody in this world has the right to judge you, not just me. In addition, I have the power, as well as the authority, to condemn you. Remember that, shameless lady.”
Gavin used a really loud voice, trying to lower Emma’s value below infinity, but it was not rude or difficult to hear.
Emma rolled her eyes, feeling angry at the humiliation. If she was a person with self-respect, she should have bowed her head in shame. Gavin was still placidly displaying an air of composure, which made her even more infuriated.
“I’m not talking to you, I want to see Alden.”
Emma insisted on talking nonsense, she did not want to confront Gavin, because she knew how to argue. Emma still hopes that Alden can change his mind. As long as Alden agreed to meet her, she would find a way to make him listen to her. Emma naively thought that the medicine still worked, as long as I read the command, Alden made sure not to escape her control.
“Unfortunately Alden doesn’t want to see you. And I won’t allow you to approach my brother again.” Gavin calmly said: “It’s better to obediently leave here, lest you face unpredictable consequences.”
“I didn’t listen to you. Stop babbling.” Emma screamed, determined not to listen, but also spoke arrogantly and defiantly: “I am not afraid of you, as long as I can convince Alden. You will know my hand.”
“You have the power to change everything?” Gavin pursed his lips coldly, thinking about what Emma had done, he wanted to send her to death. But because of her brother, Gavin did not take action to punish her.
“What I do doesn’t make you in charge,” Emma said fiercely. With that, she blatantly walked over, banging on the car door, calling for Alden’s attention.Published by Nôv'elD/rama.Org.
He’d been listening to the symphony just now, so he hadn’t heard outside Gavin’s heated argument with Emma. But by the time she arrived, the song was over. Her voice again sounded like a scream, successfully attracting his attention.
It turns out that the dog Gavin is talking about here is a reference to Emma. Alden smiled faintly when he learned of Gavin’s simile, how vulgar and sinister it was. Comparing Emma to a much-loved animal is a huge insult to that animal. However, if you think about it, whether it is a human or an animal, there is good and bad, it is evil, and there is kindness. So Gavin’s comparison is not wrong. On the contrary, it partly speaks to Emma’s perverted and perverted nature. She herself became a lowly creature, hated by the world.
Alden doesn’t know what to do, does Emma deserve his forgiveness?
It’s exhausting!
