Red Dead Redemption Dawn - Chapter 497
There were more people on the streets of Saint-Denis at night, and Arthur came to the address given to him by Mary Lington with this slightly excited mood.
Just before he was about to reach his destination, Arthur stopped suddenly, then looked up and down his clothes, and then looked left and right. Then he turned and walked towards the nearest clothing store, where he chose a very energetic outfit.
Then he came to the Bastille Hotel, and then asked the waiter for a bathroom, and then he took a shower seriously, because taking a shower in the camp is a very troublesome thing.
It’s been two days since the last time he took a bath, so he doesn’t smell good now.
Although he felt that Mary Lington shouldn’t care, he felt that he couldn’t be rude.
But after taking a bath, Arthur checked the time, and it was already past ten o’clock, so Arthur decided to go to Mary the next morning because he remembered that Mary usually fell asleep at ten o’clock.
After Arthur changed into the very nice clothes the next day, Arthur rode again towards his destination.
The address is an apartment, and the appearance is fairly new. He looked at the sign at the door, and then planned to knock on the door.
But as soon as he walked in, a voice of surprise came from above.
“Arthur~Arthur~”
Arthur’s heart trembled when he heard this voice, and then he looked up.
Although the street lights had been turned on on the street, the lights were dim, and it took him a few days to determine the location of Mary Lington.
“Hey~” Arthur opened his mouth to call her name, but he only came out with this word as soon as he opened his mouth.
“You’re here~” Mary said joyfully looking at Arthur below on the second floor.
“Well~ yes, do you want me to go up?” Arthur asked after adjusting his mentality.
“Stay there, I’ll come down.” After finishing speaking, Mary disappeared on the balcony.
Arthur sorted out his excitement. Although he told himself before that he would never play tricks on this woman again, Arthur still ran over excitedly when he received her letter.
There was nothing he could do with her.
While thinking about it, the door to the left of the apartment was opened.
Mary came out in a dress that was plain but looked good on her.
“Arthur, you are here.” Mary wanted to step forward and hug Arthur. It was a very touching thing for a helpless woman to get a response when she asked for help, but considering that she and him seemed to have drifted apart , so Mary just stood in front of him.
“Yes, I’m here, as long as you need me, I’ll be there.” Arthur said very infatuatedly what others couldn’t say.
“Oh ~ Arthur ~” Arthur’s words made Mary a little uncomfortable, and she seemed to have something difficult to say from her appearance.
Arthur also noticed the hesitation in Mary’s words” So Arthur asked “What happened? Jamie? ”
“No, it’s~my father~” Mary was about to stop, and then said reluctantly.
As soon as Arthur heard that it was about his father, he immediately showed a surprised and helpless expression, “Your father?! It seems that I am more stupid than I believed.” Then he turned and prepared to leave.
Arthur harbored a great deal of malice towards her father, though it was his father who had treated him in the first place.
When Mary Lington and Arthur fell in love, his father interrupted the two without hesitation.
Because his daughter can’t marry a penniless robber, let alone he is still on the run.
His father took Marylington away after scolding Arthur to leave.
Faced with such humiliation, if it was someone else, Arthur might have killed him directly with the gun, but he is Mary’s father, so Arthur can only stand still and watch Mary being pulled onto the train by his father.
At that time, Arthur was very depressed, and when he received the news from Mary again, it was the news that Mary was married.
During that time, Arthur vented his dissatisfaction everywhere, punching, burning, and robbing. He was extremely active, and Dach laughed and said that Arthur was becoming more and more like a robber.
After so many years, although Arthur has been writing to Mary, Mary’s reply is very few.
Today he thought that Mary was here to see him, just to continue the deep-rooted relationship with him when he was young.
Unexpectedly, Mary still asked Arthur for help when she opened her mouth, and it was still about her father.
Seeing Arthur turning to leave, Mary anxiously chased him a few steps and said, “Arthur~ I beg you.”
As soon as Mary spoke Arthur slowed down, even stopped, and turned to look at her.
“I know my father treats you badly, but~Arthur, you~you can’t blame a man for loving his daughter too much, he~he just wants her daughter to find a better than~than~”
Mary was still debating whether to continue speaking, but Arthur stepped forward and interrupted her, “Better than me?”
Mary was still struggling, but as soon as Arthur spoke she said, “Better than your choice.”
“What choice do I have? Do I have a choice?” Arthur’s expression was gradually aggrieved and angry like a person who had been abandoned back then, and his tone was full of unkindness.
“Oh~ I know, you have to live according to your own way of life, but your way is wrong!” Arthur’s tone was that Mary Lington also became angry, and she also responded with a little sarcasm.
“Then your way is right, Mary?” Arthur asked slightly mockingly, “You~Jamie followed a group of lunatics? And your hypocritical and weak father, drinking all day long! Whore~prostitution! Gambling! ? What about the result of your simple life? Didn’t you come to me for help?” Arthur said emotionally.
Mary looked helpless, but there was nothing she could do. She could only refrain from arguing with Arthur and said pleadingly, “Arthur~ you~ treat me better~ please.”
Arthur looked at the way Mary was scolded by him, and was defeated by the way Mary surrounded him again.
He stepped forward and said softly to Mary, “I’m sorry, I’m a little emotional, sorry.”
After speaking, Arthur walked to the doorstep and sat down, with a relieved and unwilling expression on his face.
Mary turned to Arthur on the steps and said, “Arthur, I should find someone else to help me, but~”
“I’m the one you’ve ever known that any decent person can fear.” Arthur took Mary’s words with his head down.
Mary sat next to Arthur, and then she brewed, and said softly to Arthur, “It’s not that I don’t love you, Arthur, you know?”
“I know.” Arthur responded with a sigh while sitting on the steps.
“Arthur~” Mary called Arthur’s name with a choked voice, “We were too young at the time, and we would never know how much our lives would change in the future.”
“Yes, I think so too. Many, many things seem to have happened a long time ago.” Arthur’s tone was still a little low.
“Then, will you help me save my father?” Mary said.
Arthur turned his head to look at Mary’s face, which was not as young as it used to be. Mary was looking at him too.
Mary’s face is full of traces left by the years, but in Arthur’s eyes she is still unbelievably beautiful. He really wanted to refuse, Mary’s father was definitely one of the people he hated the most in his life, and he even hoped that Mary’s father would be hit and killed by a carriage suddenly when he went to save him.
But he couldn’t see the sad face of the woman in front of him, and he didn’t want to hear the woman crying, because he couldn’t stand it.
So Arthur sighed and got up, and said to Mary without looking back, “Let’s go, see what I can do for him, go there? What did that lovely old man do?”
“Arthur~sarcasm doesn’t match your kind personality, although drinking~gambling~and other things~” Mary just wanted to explain, but Arthur interrupted her.
“Oh~ what a filthy rotten person.” The tone was mocking and a little serious.
Mary hit Arthur **** the chest by his serious look.
“Where are we going to find him?” Arthur asked seriously again after teasing him.
“He said he was going to Theodore Eckhart’s stable, which is right next to the station and the warehouse area by the river. It seems to be related to horses.” Mary said after recalling it carefully.
“Okay~ let’s go.” Arthur got up after saying that.
“Arthur, why are you pretending to be reluctant? It makes you look like an idiot.” Mary said dissatisfied looking at Arthur’s appearance.
“Then am I supposed to be happy?” Arthur responded dissatisfiedly after reaching out for his horse.
“Oh~ Arthur~ I should have gone with you years ago,” said Mary suddenly.
“But you didn’t.” Arthur didn’t want to mention the past.
“Yes, I didn’t~” Mary suddenly looked at Arthur affectionately and said, “But~but~ well, I don’t know now either.”
Mary looked at Arthur’s neat face and didn’t know what to say for a moment.
“That’s fine, let’s go, let’s go see if the old man has been beaten down.” Arthur got on the horse after speaking.
Mary took his hand and sat behind him, then reached out and pinched Arthur’s waist hard.
“What are you doing?” Arthur asked grinning.
“You don’t need to talk about my father in the future.” Mary said a little angrily.
“I’ll try my best in the future.” Arthur responded, and then Mary hugged Arthur’s strong waist in satisfaction.
Arthur then drove the horses towards the location.
“What do you think he was doing there?” Arthur asked on the way.
“I don’t know, but he said it was a disgrace for a man of his stature to ride an old horse,” Mary responded.
“Identity? The identity of being drunk on the street for a long time?”
“Arthur!” Mary said, pinching Arthur’s waist again, and Arthur grinned in pain.
“He is not like this. Although he used to drink and gamble a lot, but recently, there have been more and more things. The only things left at home have gradually been pawned. He also hangs out with some dubious people. , I really don’t know what’s wrong with him, I’m worried about him.” Mary Lington said worriedly.
“It’s okay, no matter what the situation, I will help you solve it.” Arthur calmed her down.
As the two talked, the two of them also came to their destination.
“It’s here.” Mary motioned him to stop aside.
Mary dismounted after Arthur stopped her horse, and headed for the stables.
“I’m going to go in and see what’s wrong with them,” Mary said.
“Okay, I’ll wait for you here. Scream if you need help,” Arthur told her.
“It’s funny.” Mary complained.
Arthur smiled and watched her go in.
After standing for a while, there was a voice in the stable that made Arthur very disgusted, “I have never been so embarrassed!”
Arthur consciously stepped aside, facing the railway, to avoid the two meeting each other.
Then an old man, somewhat drunk, came out, with Mary beside him. As he walked, the old man yelled at Mary, “I almost killed my daughter with my own hands just now. You made me have never been in such a shameful situation.”
“Let’s go home, Father, we still have a house, the one my husband left behind.” Mary persuaded earnestly.
“Go back, go home by yourself, don’t follow me anymore! You annoying troublemaker!” the old man yelled.
As he spoke, he walked towards the corner.
At this time Arthur turned around and said mockingly, “It seems that he is still so likable.”
“Arthur! He seems to be drunk again. Let’s catch up quickly. I’m afraid he will provoke some troublesome people and cause some trouble.” Mary took care of Arthur.
“Of course~” Arthur said with a relaxed expression.
Then the two slowly followed behind him.
Cross the road and go through the warehouse.
Gillis stopped after reaching an alley.
“What is he doing?” Mary asked around the corner.
“Obviously waiting for someone.” Arthur responded in a low voice.
After a while, a well-dressed man also appeared in the alley.
“Mr. Gillis, did you bring that thing?” said the man.
“Where’s your money?” Gillis asked back.
The man took out a wad of cash as he spoke.
When Gillis saw the money, he pulled out a brooch.
The man took the brooch and looked at the sun. “A very beautiful brooch.”
“Here, enjoy the money, and if you are short of money, I can lend you a loan with reasonable interest.” The man said to Gillis after paying the money.
“No need, I know what happened to those guys who borrowed money from you.” Gillis responded while counting the money.
“Hehe~ I’ve seen a lot of people like you, Mr. Gillis, we’ll see you soon.” The man said and left the alley with the brooch.
“That’s mine ~ Arthur.” Mary said to Arthur angrily as soon as she saw the brooch.
“It’s just a brooch, at least he didn’t kill himself.” Arthur responded in a low voice.
“That’s the only thing my mother left me, you have to understand ~ Arthur!” Mary Lington walked out angrily after speaking.
“How could you do this?! That’s what my mother left me! You’re stealing!” Mary yelled at her father.
When Gillis didn’t know how to face his daughter, Arthur also came out, greeted Gillis casually, and walked towards the man just now.
“Ah~ theft? You found your robber man again, didn’t you?” Gillis changed the subject.
Mary Lington looked at him with hatred, and then said to Arthur, “Arthur, get it back!”
“Of course~” Arthur said and chased after him.
“Don’t hurt anyone,” Mary instructed later.
“I think he’s going to kill him,” Gillis said nonchalantly.
“You have changed, you are with these dubious people, you are still selling my mother’s brooch, you steal again!” Mary Lington continued to curse at her father after ignoring Arthur.
“So what? I have raised you for so many years, and I have the power to deal with these things.” Gillis looked like it was a matter of course.
“Thief!” Mary Lington cursed with clenched hands.
“You wait here for your robber man, I’m leaving!” Gillis turned and left the alley after finishing speaking.
Mary, on the other hand, looked at her father’s back and felt helpless.
Then she had to go to the entrance of the alley and wait for Arthur to come back.
After a while, she heard a familiar voice, “Ma’am, are you waiting for me?”
“Oh~ Arthur, have you found it?” Mary turned around and asked Arthur happily when she heard the voice.
“Of course~” Arthur smiled and took out the very beautiful brooch.
“Thank you~ um~ how much is it?” Mary asked a little embarrassed.
“Ah~ it’s very cheap, that person is quite friendly, but don’t worry about it, just treat it as a gift from me.” Arthur said politely.
“Well, I won’t ask,” Mary said.
“Well, it’s best not to.”
“Where’s your father?” Arthur asked again.
“I don’t know.” Mary said disappointedly.
“Are you going to find him again?” Arthur asked again.
“No need.” Mary shook her head.
“Okay then, let’s go for a walk?” Arthur said tentatively.
“Huh?” Mary looked at Arthur.
“I’ll take you over there at the station!” Arthur responded. UU Reading www.uukanshu.com
Mary nodded and followed Arthur to the station, walking.
Mary saw the advertisement for the opera house on the side, and she looked at the man beside her tentatively and said, “Arthur, have you seen that one?”
“That?” Arthur looked suspiciously in the direction Mary said, it was a poster advertisement.
“No~” Arthur looked at Mary emotionally.
“So, you want to go and see?” Arthur asked cautiously.
“Do you want to?” Mary asked back.
“Of course~ I’ve wanted to see it for a long time, but, I just don’t have time, but~ but there are still some, so~ let’s go and have a look together?”
“Yep”
After speaking, the two walked towards the opera house. During the walk, Arthur tentatively held Mary Lington’s hand, and Mary Lington did not refuse.
