Wendell's forehead instantly sprouted a few black lines, this uncle of his, he really dared to say anything.
"What happened later, when that general's family saw that your grandfather had regained power, they regretted it and wanted to continue to honour the marriage contract with your father." Milliam said, "Your grandfather also agreed, after all, he and that general were battle buddies who were born into death, and their friendship was not something that ordinary people could over understand."
"What does this have to do with my mother?" Wendell couldn't help but ask, "Can you speak more concisely?"
"Brat, I'm already being concise here, I'm not even talking about how much happened in between." Milliam glared at him before continuing, "For this marriage contract, your father, however, disagreed."
Wendell nodded, if he were in his place, there was absolutely no way he would continue to honour the marriage contract with such a snob. Admittedly, in those troubled years, everyone was thinking of saving their own lives, in fact, this was also a common sense, however, after all, what the other party did was chilling, although it was understreat, it was absolutely impossible to go back to the kind of relationship we had before.
"Then can grandpa agree?" Wendell couldn't help but ask.
"Of course your grandfather doesn't agree, he said that since the words have already been spoken, even if the old comrade is no longer around, it still counts, so he is adamant that your father continue to honour the marriage contract." Milliam chuckled, "Your father was also rather stubborn and resolutely disagreed, but he couldn't wring the old man out, so he came up with an idea."
"What idea?" Wendell was stunned.
"Your father found a random woman, and by the time your grandfather found out, that woman was pregnant, and your father was going to get married to that woman." Milliam laughed badly, "At that time, the old man was so angry that he almost had to break your dad's legs, several of our other siblings were afraid of the old man and didn't dare to say much, fortunately there was your grandmother protecting your dad, otherwise, I'm afraid your dad would have become crippled by now, haha…… "
Wendell looked at him with a smirk, "You're not afraid he'll hear?"
Saying that, he looked at his mother's room above.
Milliam froze, then he gave a sarcastic laugh and said, "Brat, you are not allowed to talk nonsense in the future, you hear me!"
Wendell couldn't help but smile and said, "Okay, I promise not to talk nonsense, and I won't tell anyone, so go on."
"That's more like it."
Milliam muttered, casually took out a box of cigarettes from his pocket, lit one up and smoked it, swallowed a cloud and said, "Later on, the old man didn't continue to punish your father, but he just didn't recognize that woman, and personally approached that woman to talk once, and then that woman left, no matter how much your father pleaded, it was useless. It was also because of this incident that your father and your grandfather had a bad relationship for more than ten years, and if it wasn't for the fact that the old man's health had deteriorated in the last years, I'm afraid the anger in your father's heart wouldn't have subsided."
"That woman is my mother?" Wendell's face sank, if that was the case, Wendell would never forgive the Silva family and would even take revenge on the Silva family for his mother!
"No!" Milliam shook his head, "Then your father went back to college and fell in love with your mother at school, and when the old man saw that your father hadn't shown a smile for a year or , he took a step back and agreed to your father and your mother getting married."
"And then what?" Wendell's eyebrows were furrowed, how come it was getting more complicated the more he talked about it?
"That's the crux of the matter ah, just a day before your dad and your mum were to get married, your mum suddenly disappeared." Milliam shook his head and sighed lightly, "No matter how much your father and I searched, we couldn't find your mother, even your grandfather's house and the places your mother often went, but we couldn't find your mother, after searching for several years in a row, your father gave up because of his busy work schedule. Only since then, your father has been pining for your mother and has never looked for another woman."
"He's been single all these years?" Wendell felt better in his heart, at least from this point he could see that he was true to his mother.
"Yes, a minister in the hall is still single, your dad is also considered a special case in the central government." Milliam shook his head and laughed, then his face sank again, "Only a few years later did your father learn that the reason your mother suddenly disappeared in the first place was because someone had told your mother that your father had also found a woman before and that woman was pregnant. Your mother was stubborn and left."
"It seems that someone didn't want the marriage to be held." Wendell immediately caught the key.
A glint of approval flashed in Milliam's eyes as he nodded, "That's right, and, this person with ulterior motives is the daughter of the general I told you about, the one who was once engaged to your father. At that time, the old man of their family was already gone and the family was gradually declining, while your grandfather was holding the power, your father wanted to deal with that woman, but was stopped by your grandfather."
Wendell nodded, not knowing what to say, how could he have not expected that things would be like this.
"Your mother was stubborn and couldn't accept that your father had had another woman and most likely had children out there, so she left when she didn't know the situation." Milliam shook his head, "Over the years, your father has really suffered, don't look at him as one of the several giants, always looking at your mother's picture and shedding tears when it's late at night, he has his weak muments too."
In this instant, Wendell's heart was touched.
"Your grandfather also has some regrets about what happened at the beginning, but he just can't say it because he's in the way." Milliam said, "In fact, when he received the call from Juspol yesterday morning, your father almost jumped up with joy and wanted to come in person immediately, but you also know that with his status, it is almost impossible to come to Tafator County without alerting others. And your mother used to love me more, so that's why I came first."
"A call from Juspol?" Wendell froze.
"Yes, Juspol recognized you at a glance, if it wasn't for him, we probably wouldn't have been able to find you and your mother!" Milliam took a fierce drag of his cigarette, "Who would have thought that your mother would be hiding in Tafator County selling vegetables, sigh!"
"In my memory, my mother also once took me back to my grandfather's house for a while, but suffered the blank stares and sneers of my relatives and friends, so my mother, in a fit of anger, took me to the county, and at first picked up rags, and only later sold vegetables……" Wendell said indifferently, remembering the bitter days he had lived and the scenes of being sarcastic by his relatives and friends, Wendell's eyes could not help but flash a cold aura.
"Really D_mn!" Milliam's face sank.
"It's all in the past, let's not talk about that." Wendell shook his head with a smile and said sagely.
Milliam nodded, knowing that Wendell was reluctant to bring up the past, and continued, "Actually, I was surprised that your father could come today. Although I told your mother that your father would be here soon, that was just a lie to try to trick her back to Gramboya. But I never thought that your father would really come, and so quickly."
"I didn't expect that either." Wendell smiled faintly.
The uncles and nephews talked about other things, and the one that interested Milliam the most was Wendell's physical skills.
He couldn't help but ask, "Kid, who did you learn your fighting from? From the way you move, you look like a soldier, extremely competent and concise, but I'm sure that even those soldier kings from the special forces may not have as great of hands as yours."
Wendell chuckled and said, "After watching too many action movies, I slowly learned."
"You kid……" Milliam pointed at Wendell and cursed, but knew that the kid was not willing to tell the truth, so he could only let it go.
Wendell was afraid that Milliam would ask after him about his fighting, so he hurriedly changed the subject and asked about Milliam's work.
At this time, he realized that Milliam's origins were not small.
It turned out that Milliam was now the immediate divisional commander of the Red Arrow Brigade of the Special Forces, a high ranking, the rank was actually deputy military level and very influential in the military.
What Wendell actually doesn't know is that today's Silva family is not like the simple ‘a little strength' that Milliam said, only that Wendell doesn't care much about domestic politics and current affairs, so he doesn't know much about it.
In fact, if you think about it, it is not difficult to understand, in the past, Wendell and his mother were dependent on each other, even life was very difficult, where would he care about current affairs?
This chat between uncle and nephew was more than an hour, and at that mument, there was still no movement upstairs, so Wendell couldn't help but be a little anxious.
"Kid, don't be anxious, they haven't seen each other for more than ten years, they must have a lot to say." Milliam laughed and said, "Kid, what are you going to do after this college entrance exam?"
"Of course I'm going to university!" Wendell said as a matter of course.
"Of course I know you are going to university, what I am asking is, which university are you planning to go to?" Milliam asked, then shook his head again and said, "I'd better not ask, now that the old man already knows about you, the future path will definitely be arranged for you by the old man."
"No!"
Wendell frowned, "I won't let them arrange it, my path, I will walk it myself. In the past, it was likewise me and my mother who came together, we don't need anyone's help."
"You brat, really……" Milliam was so angry that he didn't know what to say, could it be that your grandfather and your father would still harm you?
If he hadn't been unable to beat Wendell, Milliam would definitely have hit him hard.
However, Wendell shook his head firmly and said, "I said, my path, I will walk on my own."
"Great! Worthy of being my son!" A mid-spirited voice suddenly came, Wendell and Milliam turned around at the same time, only to see Marl and his mother Helen walking down the stairs together, Marl's face with a gratifying smile, "Wendell, don't worry, I won't force you to do something you don't like!"
Wendell looked at his mother, but saw a hint of shyness on her face, as well as some embarra_sment, but just not an angry look.
He then knew that his mother had forgiven Marl. In fact, after listening to those things in the past, Wendell had also forgiven Marl in his heart, not that he had abandoned his mother, but there were reasons for what happened, and, after all, blreat was thicker than water.
"Wendell, what are you still standing there for, aren't you going to acknowledge me as your father?" Marl looked at Wendell, a national leader, but with a hint of tension in his eyes.
"Wendell, this is your father." Helen said from the side.
Wendell hesitated for a mument, staring at Marl's face with a deadly stare, but didn't say anything.
"Kid, what are you doing frozen!" Milliam couldn't help but remind in a low voice when he saw a glimmer of gloom in his elder brother's eyes.
"Flutter!"
Wendell knelt down on the ground in a mument and said in a deep voice, "Dad!"
"Ai!"
lines of hot tears immediately welled up in Marl's tiger eyes as he hurriedly stepped forward and helped his son up, "Great! Bravo! This is my Marl's son, great!"
