Chapter 452
“Alright, please leave us alone. We have to go through the emergency rescue procedures for the patient…”
Beloved Church was in an uproar.
Everyone was worried about Anna’s injuries.
Let alone the priests in the church, even the bishop were afraid that this matter would have a substantial negative impact on Beloved Church. After all, Anna Fowler was praying for blessings at their church. Even if the cause of the incident wouldn’t be traced back to them, it would subtly bring a massive storm to the church.
As the wife of Fowler Corporation’s chairman, Anna was quite famous in Stormton City. Many people knew her. If this matter was spread, how could Beloved Church compete for fame with the neighboring Santio Church in the future?
They were really unlucky!
Compared to the riot at Beloved Church, Santio Church was calm.
Jane and Levi stayed in the bamboo house and drank the tea Levi had just made.
Levi planted the tea himself.
Jane took a sip of the steaming tea and praised, “It smells so good. Uncle Levi, you are indeed good at making tea. It tastes great.”
Levi chuckled. “Girl, you have such a sweet ********. Thank you for coming and visiting me often. With you accompanying me, my days don’t seem boring anymore.”
“After all, you’re Hugh’s father. Even if Victor Croft might have done something to him, and you can’t tell the truth with him now, Hugh has always respected you and wanted to hear you explain your indifference to him over the years. As Hugh’s girlfriend, I think I have to bear this responsibility. This is what Hugh wants, I guess,” Jane replied.
Levi’s hand that was holding the teacup paused.
In the end, he sighed softly.
“Hugh is so fortunate to find such a good wife like you. As for me… Jane, don’t think too much. It’s more important for you to lead a good life with Hugh Even if I have my reasons for getting to this point with Hugh, it’s undeniable that I was so dispirited back then and lost the ability to protect my only bloodline with Tabitha.
“I… don’t have the right to ask for his forgiveness. Even if Hugh knows the truth, I indeed choose to escape what happened in the past. That’s the truth. I only hope that you can live well and not be affected by the Croft family. I’ll be satisfied if you can happily pursue your own life.” “Uncle Levi, do you believe me?”
Jane stared at Levi and suddenly asked.
Hearing this, Levi subconsciously met Jane’s eyes.
He smiled. “Of course I believe you. You’re Hugh’s beloved. Regardless of whether I’m qualified, you’re my daughter-in-law in name. How can I not believe you?”
Jane replied, “I’ll find someone to confirm if Victor did anything to Hugh. If he did, we’ll eliminate this hidden threat and let Hugh understand the truth! You will tell him personally.
“Uncle Levi, you’re Hugh’s father. Hugh has waited for this truth for so many years. Do you really want to keep it a secret for the rest of your life? This is not fair to Hugh at all! You can’t just think about your sins. You have to think about your identity as Hugh’s father, and Hugh needs you to do this!”
Levi seemed to be moved by Jane’s words and closed his eyes.
He stood up and walked to the window. A cool breeze blew, and the sun shone brightly on the beautiful winding valley. The wind howled in the valley as if it was asking an important person who had passed away long ago. It transmitted an answer from afar to Levi.
After a long while, Levi made up his mind.
*Thank you, Jane. It’s great that I told you the truth that day.
“You helped me make up my mind. You’re right. Even if my incompetence caused the tragic past of Hugh, I still owe him an apology and the
truth.
“I should tell the truth to Hugh myself. Even if I will be reduced to ********for breaking my oath, this is my responsibility as a father to my son!” Upstodatee from Novel(D)ra/m/a.O(r)g
Otherwise, even if Levi kept this secret to his death, he would not have the face to see Hugh’s mother again. Tabitha would only scold him for being a **********. How could he treat the child she gave her life to give birth to like this?
Jane’s lips curled into a smile. “That’s right.”
At this moment, Patrick walked in. He wore rough clothes and had a long goatee and clear eyes. He was filled with the precipitation and wisdom of decades. He held a cross in his hand and smiled. “Dear guests, am I bothering you?”
When Jane and Levi saw Patrick, they bowed respectfully and said, “Sir.”
Speaking of which, this Patrick was also a top figure. Back then, he was among the first batch of students to graduate from Hateno University. the best university in the country. After cultivating in the bureaucracy for a few years, he decisively resigned and entered the entrepreneurial craze. He relied on his outstanding ability and foresight to create billions of corporations. At that time, he could be considered a top figure in the country.
Later on, when his career was at its peak, and he was in the limelight, he suddenly made a decision that shocked the entire country. He hid his identity and distributed his assets to his descendants and the government. Then, he came to the fallen Santio Church alone, developed it to its current size with his wisdom, and became the bishop.
After cutting off the past, he had been guarding Santio Church for thirty years and was already seventy- two years old this year. He still looked
like he was in his fifties, with an energetic and unfathomable aura. Bathing in holy light awe-inspiringly, he was well respected.
Even Jane was full of admiration for him after hearing about his deeds. Jane knew that she could not cut off everything decisively, hide in the forest at his peak, and guard the church for thirty years.
Patrick said calmly, “Something happened at the neighboring Beloved Church. Miss Jane Fowler. The person in trouble is also related to you. I received the news and thought that I had to inform you.”
“Did something happen to Anna Fowler?”
Jane looked calm and unsurprised.
“Alas. It seems that you already knew it.”
“Sir, there’s a saying that goes like this. What goes around comes around.’ This is the Fowlers’ own choice. Now that I’ve cut ties with the Fowler family, I have nothing to do with them anymore. It’s like how you cut off all ties with the mortal world back then. It’s their choice of how they will go in the future. It has nothing to do with me.”
Hearing Jane’s calm and indifferent voice, Patrick only held the cross tight and shook his head before turning around to leave. “Miss Jane Fowler, you are right. Everything depends on one’s luck. The heavens cannot be violated. All we can do… is to follow the heavens.”
