Chapter 350: Storm

Clayton Bello stood in front of the old house, recalling the shape of a pointer he had seen in his life.

His brother's wife Tritis was furiously berating her daughter Donna Bello in front of his old house because she had arranged for a temporary caregiver to accompany Donna to meet him in the city of Sasha, but Donna had escaped from the caregiver without knowing where she was. trace.

Clayton didn't know how Cuitis chased her here, or she just wanted to ask him to help find someone. In any case, now is the best ending.

Cuitis doesn't think so.

"I almost died when Polly told me you were missing!"

Cuitis's voice still contained the pain of discovering that Donna was missing, forcing Clayton to drag him back to reality from his divergent thoughts.

Because he lived with his uncle, who was more affluent, he received financial assistance. Donna's clothes were more expensive and decent than before she left, but Cuitis didn't notice these external changes. Her hands just held onto Donna's arms tightly, as if she was afraid that her daughter would run away again.

Donna blushed and moved her grabbed wrist, but she couldn't break free:

"A fifteen-year-old girl got on the train alone and stayed outside for several days! Have you considered the risks before doing these things?! You can't open your eyes even when you are asleep, right? What if you meet a robber? , or what to do with the beast? You’re not going to go somewhere else, why should you get rid of Polly and come find him alone?”

She suddenly swallowed the name and let go of one hand to point directly at Clayton.

".he?!"

There were people peeking out of the windows of the houses on the street, and the two horses brought by Clayton and Donna were shaking their heads uneasily, hoping to leave here quickly.

Clayton's mood was the same as that of the horse. He tapped his feet gently, hoping that this protest would be received by Tritis.

But Cuitis didn't care.

"Because I don't like Polly and he wants to marry you." Donna said aggrievedly.

Cuitisi was stunned. She looked at her daughter's delicate face. There was a stubbornness that could not be ignored. She seemed to recognize her child for the first time. After a moment, she suddenly hugged her daughter into her arms. Her face under her sunglasses His face was full of tears. This was the third time Clayton had seen her cry.

The first time she cried was for her father, the second time she cried for her husband.

Seeing her mother's unprecedented vulnerability, all the girl's defensive thoughts disappeared. Donna's body relaxed, and the hand around her mother's neck patted her back gently, as if a more mature person was giving her care. Soothe.

After fifteen years, the girl is almost as tall as her mother.

"I'm sorry, Mom, I won't do it again," Donna promised quietly.

Cuitis held her hand tighter and tighter.

Clayton was not an ignorant person. He stood quietly and waited for the mother to vent her emotions.

After a while, Cuitis let go of her daughter, and finally remembered that there was Bello next to her. She wiped away her tears and turned to look at this bastard she hadn't seen for many years. Her eyes behind her sunglasses looked up and down at Clayton's burly figure.

Clayton looked at her silently. In fact, he didn't think about how to deal with this relative he hadn't seen for many years.

For a time they were as close as brothers and sisters, but soon, Uren's death put an end to that.

He was actually partly responsible for Wu Lun's death, and when his parents died, he didn't have time to return. The old man's funeral was also organized by Cuitis alone. He felt guilty for her, which no matter how much money he gave, he couldn't. Removed feelings.

Although they communicated once through letters in October, the written words were dull and monotonous. For both parties who wrote the letters, the other's existence was nothing more than a few lines on the paper. Perhaps seeing his face and feeling his real presence would make Cuitisi think of the unhappiness between them again.

"Clayton"

The eyes wandering behind Cuitis sunglasses finally stopped on his face.

"Why are you still growing in your thirties?" she asked in a nasal voice.

This was the first sentence Cuitis said directly to him today. Clayton opened his mouth and couldn't answer anything.

He couldn't immediately tell Tritis that it was because he had become a werewolf. Looking at the nun's uniform she is wearing now, I know that the result of saying this will not be very good.

Creighton chose to avoid the question by asking another question. He crossed his hands on his chest and tried to lighten the atmosphere with a joke: "Treatise, Donna said that Polly is proposing to you, is this true?"

The King Cobra raised its head alertly again.

Her tone rose: "Dear Clayton, look at my clothes, which way do you think I am going?"

"Probably going to church," Clayton said.

Although some sects of the White Sect allow clergy to marry, nuns are not allowed to marry under any circumstances.

"Then you should know my attitude."

Cuitis took two steps forward, her eyes behind her sunglasses secretly observed Clayton's face, and her tone became serious.

"Polly was indeed pursuing me, but he didn't continue after knowing that I planned to rejoin the church. He was only asked to come to look after Donna temporarily because he originally planned to come to Sasha City to meet a relative, and I paid for it. "

"Then why do you want to become a monk? Is it because you don't have enough money?" Clayton didn't understand.

The nun in black sighed: "Donna must have told you about the land rent, but she doesn't know much about the work in the fields. In any case, the income from the land is definitely enough for the whole family to survive. But Human pursuits will not be limited to this.”

"I swore an oath to protect the spiritual world of mankind, but then I abandoned my oath for Wu Lun. Now that Donna has grown up, I have time to make up for my original sins."

"She's only fifteen years old." Clayton said dissatisfied: "Are you too hasty?"

Cuitisi turned around and glanced at her daughter, shaking her head with a complicated expression.

"No, now is the best time for me to repent. The days to come will only become more and more difficult." She pointed out. "Don't worry, I won't stay in the mountains forever. This is just a short separation."

Clayton couldn't understand her.

Tritis was not one to take things lightly, and if she felt the need to return to the Church, her reasons were absolutely valid. He believed that she might have some information that even he didn't know, but she was unwilling to tell him directly.

However, Cuitis lives in the remote Batnu all year round. Who will tell her this information?

When Clayton began to think deeply, Donna suddenly spoke.

"Are we just standing here?" Her eyes flicked back and forth between her mother and uncle, confused about their relationship. She thought they were at odds, but now it seemed normal.

"Why don't you say hello to each other and start talking about serious things? Isn't this too cold?"

"You're right." Clayton said. He didn't want to appear alienated from his family in front of Donna, so he extended his hand to Tritis.

Cuitisi also extended her hand, and the two shook hands.

Donna felt the joy of Julius manipulating people. She shook her head and spoke: "Just shaking hands? This is not acceptable. This is not family etiquette. Family members should hug."

Clayton did not continue. He looked at Cuitis stiffly: "I didn't instruct her to say that."

"I know." Cuitis said calmly. "But she's right."

She opened her arms, and Clayton carefully bowed and hugged her. It only lasted a second, and then the two quietly backed away like magnets that repel each other.

"Where's the kiss?" Donna asked expectantly.

Cuitisi shook her head: "No, this will make us all feel awkward."

Clayton looked approvingly behind her.

"Then let's rest at Clayton's house for a few days before leaving." Donna said, reluctantly holding her mother's hand.

A loving smile appeared on Cuitis's face: "Of course, Clayton and I do still have something to say. Regarding those contents, I originally wrote a letter and put it in Mr. Polly's pocket, hoping that He can pass it on to your uncle, but now it seems that I can only dictate it in person."

Donna shyly scratched the back of her neck with her left hand, her expression changing back to that of a rural girl.

"Then what's going on?" she asked curiously.

Cuitisi held her hand gently, the emotion in her eyes almost overflowing.

"Your marriage."

In Creighton Bello's new house in the parish of St. Benilde, the electric lights in all the rooms were turned on, and every window was glowing. Even people from afar could see the light here, and the interior was more It was dazzling, the crystal chandeliers in the corridors and halls were shining brightly, and in the corners that were particularly dark and without electric lights, candles and oil lamps were also lit.

There is no other reason to do this, except that today is indeed an important day, the Bello family is reunited again, and Clayton hopes that doing so will bring good luck to the future.

There is one more person in the restaurant, which makes the place more lively.

Cuitis sat elegantly on her seat, and Donna imitated her manners, looking like a lady.

The chef here is preparing dinner, and the tableware has been laid out in an orderly manner on the table. The servants are pouring wine into the wine glasses in front of them. The purple-red wine is swaying slightly in the glass goblets. The chandelier above the head is shining brightly, and the wine glasses are refracted. Shining like stars.

"You look much better than before." Cuitis held the goblet and shook it, admiring the color of the light shining through the wine. She didn't feel any stage fright because of all this gorgeousness.

The calm aura she exuded made Donna suddenly feel like she didn't recognize her mother.

Clayton raised his glass to her, then took a slow sip and put the glass down.

"Thanks to some of my friends, I am where I am today. Now when I think about those days when I got to know them, it seems like a long time ago."

He didn't want to go too far into unrelated matters, so after a few words, he talked about recent events.

"I found several tutors for Donna. She has made rapid progress and will soon meet the standards to enter Xinjiani Women's College."

Cuitisi nodded without knowing her mood: "Are you still teaching her in person?"

This was something that made Clayton proud. He readily admitted: "Of course, although it seems like I am bragging, I can't say that her current changes are without my credit."

"Yes, I saw the bruises on her body." Cuitis said, "She said it was you who hit her."
