Chapter 282 Get the Hell out of Here
Mason's hand holding the door handle trembled imperceptibly, the panic in his eyes instantly turned into anger, “What are you doing here? You're not welcome here, get out!”
“I’m afraid I can’t.” Zach slowly pinned his sunglasses and approached Mason, “I was entrusted by someone, I can’t go now.”
Mason immediately became alert, “By whom!?”
“About that...”
Zach smiled, but did not say it straight, just looked at Mason.
Mason also could not care less about Zach. He let out a low roar after seeing his house surrounded by those people, “Get out! Who gave you permission to stay in front of my house!”
The villagers were also annoyed by Mason’s attitude, “Pah! I’ll go whenever I want! Who do you think you are to say that?”
“That’s right. Your daughter is crazy, maybe it's because you've done something wrong to get punished?”
This instantly ignited the fuse in Mason's heart. He quickly grabbed a stick aside and roared like crazy, “Get out! Get the hell out of here!”
Zach was shocked as he watched Mason's reaction.
All the people gathered scattered after Mason’s roar, only Zach and Mason himself left. He dropped the stick in his hand and sighed wearily before giving Zach a deep look, “It's a family scandal, let's talk about it inside.”
Zach shrugged his shoulders, and didn't have any comment, followed him into the house.
Mason also saved to make Zach a cup of coffee, sat on the sofa and said bluntly, “You've pushed us to this point, are you happy now?”
“What Mr. Bush said is a little too much. We didn't cause all of this.”
“Yes! I know I deserved it! Emma deserved it too! So I have to hide here from debts, from all the gossip, no company, no money. We live here like a rat, what else do you want to say?!”
Mason got excited. As soon as Zach mentioned these things, his mind was flooded by things happened on the day his world collapsed, without any reliance or barrier. He could only hide here, with his daughter…
“I have nothing to say about that. You also think too complicated, I’m not here for those things, I just have something to ask you face to face.” Zach lowered his voice and tried not to irritate Mason.
Mason snorted, his eyes were full of ridicule, “Ask me? What's left to talk about between you and me?”
Zach carefully observed Mason’s reaction and slowly spat out, “Something… about Elena’s mother.”
Mason's whole body suddenly froze as if struck by lightning!
Zach keenly perceived something, and asked eagerly, “What happened to Joanna Lake that year?!”
“What are you babbling about? Who told you to ask me this?! Logan Brown?!” Mason stood up abruptly and glared at Zach fiercely, his eyes full of hatred. But if you look carefully, the fear in his eyes cannot be disguised.
Zach shook his head, “No one tells me to come here, I'm just curious… why is Joanna's grave an empty grave, and why you are willing to raise a child for her for more than twenty years? Love? No.
Hate? Absolutely no…”
If it’s because of love, he would never do such things to Elena, and if it’s because of hate, He could have just abandoned Elena, who was a baby twenty years ago. He didn’t have to raise her!
The more Zach said, the gloomier Mason's face became, “What the hell are you trying to say!”
“I’ve said it, did Mr. Bush not hear it clearly enough?” Zach looked at Mason and smiled.
His intentions for coming couldn't be clearer, as stated from the beginning, it’s Joanna!
This was a crucial point that all of them couldn’t figure out, but couldn’t ignore. Everything seemed to be related to her, but the cause of all this, no one knew…
Mason's hands had long been clenched into fists, “I also said long ago that I have nothing to say. I didn't know about all of this, I just adopted Elena by mistake, I've paid back what I should have paid back, and we don't owe anyone anymore!” Content protected by Nôv/el(D)rama.Org.
“Pay back?”
Zach sharply caught the loophole in Mason’s words, “What do you owe Elena and why do you want to pay it back?”
In Elena's heart, she could never tell who owed whom between them. Mason raised Elena for more than twenty years, and twenty years later, he also used her for profit. This was mutual, but why Mason said so?
According to Mason's nature, as long as others had the slightest redeeming feature, he would certainly make thorough use of it, and never took it to heart!
Mason had a flash of panic after being questioned by Zach. Zach captured it anyway even Mason quickly covered it up. The suspicion in Zach’s heart became deeper.
“All in all, it's all in the past and I don't have anything to say about it! If you insist on staying here, don't blame me for kicking you out with a stick too!”
Zach sat still and didn’t move a little, “Mr. Bush, I won’t leave unless I figure this out. According to my investigation, Joanna was pregnant after your wife, but why did your wife died due to illness after Elena was born? Are there so many coincidences?”
“Enough!”
Mason gave a low roar, his whole body was trembling, not knowing if he was in fear or in panic…
“Ah!”
A shrill female voice came steeply from the room, as if she had been startled by the low roar she had just heard!
“Emma!” Mason was so worried. He couldn't care less about Zach and immediately opened the door to the room.
The sound of Emma's ear-piercing voice filled Zach’s eardrums, his heart had no ripples as he looked at her who was screaming and shouting like a mad person.
Tears fell down Mason’s wrinkled face, he can’t help but hold Emma who bit everything she saw, letting her sharp teeth bite his shoulder!
“Don't be afraid, Dad is here, Dad is by your side, always…”
Emma shook her head, as if she hadn't heard anything, and bit more fiercely.
Zach watched Emma hold Mason’s neck tightly and bite her father's flesh and blood, a huge visual impact made him shake.
Finally, Zach cursed and came forward to pull the two apart. His big hands tightly clasped Emma's shoulders and pushed her to sit on the bed, simply not able to move anymore!
His face was as gloomy as it could be, “Are you mad? Your flesh will be torn off if she bites you for a bit longer!”
“So what?” Mason stared at Zach coldly and said word by word, “Isn't it all because of you guys that she became like this!”
