When Edith saw the man at the entrance holding a gun and walking toward them, she subconsciously opened her arms wide and stood in front of Timothy.
Flossie grew cautious. She rubbed her eyes and looked at the dark-clothed man slowly approaching them. When she saw him, she nearly fainted from anger.
“Quinton?! What… What are you doing here?”
Quinton pressed the gun on the security guard’s head, as if he wanted to exterminate the entire Guajardo family.
“What am I doing here? Well, what are you doing here then…? If I was a bit late, what would they do to you? How could I not come?” he said coldly.
Quinton had lost contact with Flossie for a day, and it filled him with anxiety. He looked all over for her and went to the principal of Lone Pine Elementary based on some clues. Dale told him that Halston might have taken Flossie away.
Quinton regarded Guajardo Manor as hell that would only cause Flossie pain. Hence, he immediately fished his gun out and rushed there. He was mentally prepared to annihilate the Guajardos.
As he had expected, he found Flossie there.
“Come here, Flossie! They’re dangerous beasts! It’s dangerous for you to stay here!” he said tensely.
Flossie smacked her forehead, overcome by helplessness.
“Quinton, calm down and put the gun down!” she said. “We’re a family. We don’t need the gun. You’re going to make things worse… Grandpa’s very nice to me. He’s just like our grandpa, and he’s a great elder. You’re being rude.”
Then, she explained to Timothy awkwardly, “Grandpa, don’t be nervous. He’s my twin brother. He has a violent temper, but he’s not a bad guy. I guess he’s worried about me, so he came with a gun. Don’t worry. Yes, he might seem crazy, but he knows what he’s doing. The gun’s just for show. He won’t fire it recklessly.”
Although Flossie stated that, she wasn’t very confident. After all, Quinton once nearly got Halston killed when he went berserk. No one knew if he would do that again or not.
“Your twin brother?”
Timothy was solemn just now; fitting his discipline as a soldier, he was about to get rid of that rude and reckless man.
When he learned that Quinton was Flossie’s twin brother, however, he felt complicated. He looked at Quinton amiably, as if the latter were his junior.
“So, he’s my sworn brother’s grandson?” Timothy asked. He was referring to Flossie’s grandfather, his deceased comrade who he respected the most.
“Mm, yes. We’re twins. Something happened back then and we got separated. I just reunited with him a while back, Flossie explained honestly to Timothy.
“That’s great!” Timothy almost burst into excited tears. He waved at Quinton. “Come here! Let me look at you!”
“Stop!” Quinton looked at Timothy suspiciously, and abruptly aimed the gun toward Timothy’s head.
Angry, Flossie tried to stop him.
“Quinton, put the gun down! You can’t be rude to Grandpa!” Halston rushed over angrily and warned Quinton coldly, “You can’t make a scene here! Put the gun down, or you’ll be sorry!” “Humph! It’s been along time, my ex-brother-in-law.” Quinton didn’t want to move his gun away from Timothy.
He grinned wickedly at Halston.
“Looks like this old man is very important to you.
I can’t let him go easily.
If not, I can’t control you.” “Quinton!” Flossie frowned, livid.
“You can joke about anyone except Grandpa.
He’s a very dear friend our late grandfather trusted the most.
We should respect him.
It’s your business that you can’t get along with Halston.
Don’t pull Grandpa into this mess!” Flossie knew Quinton was crazy, but he wasn’t one to run out of control.
He aimed the gun at Timothy not because he wanted to harm the latter, but to make himself seem more powerful than Halston.
Even if he was just putting on a show, it was already very rude.
If Maurice learned about this, he would be furious.
“Humph! A dear friend?” Quinton spat.
He was just like a rebellious demon who didn’t consider the consequences of his actions.
Ignoring all forms of decency, he sneered, “If he was our grandpa’s dear friend, would he watch you suffer thus in the Guajardo family? You led a miserable life after marrying this guy. Now, this scumbag even abandoned you.
Did the Guajardo family try to seek justice for you? I think he was our grandpa’s old enemy!” “You can’t put it that way! Grandpa had no idea about the things between Halston and me. When he learned about it, he did teach Halston a lesson.
He nearly beat Halston up and got Halston killed a few minutes before you came!” Flossie protested stubbornly.
She tried her best to tell Quinton that Timothy and the Guajardos were nice to her to resolve the conflict-very enthusiastically, in fact.
Unfortunately, Quinton grew up in coldness and hatred.
He couldn’t understand the kindness they had shown to Flossie.
Rather, he found everything hypocritical and ironic.
“Flossie, people are complicated.
Would this old man actually kill his one and only grandson it was just for show to fish your pity: After that, he’d help to regain his grandson’s innocence.
Since he went out of his way to beat up Halston, you can’t blame his ve m grandson for anything anymore.
After all, he was already punished, wasn’t he?” Quinton wasn’Kafrad of e offending or Timothy.
His words hit the nail on the head.
“They’re just a bunch of hypocrites.
They tried to keep you here using this method, and manipulated you.
Even if this incident spreads, they can still save face.
They won’t be implicated in any way.”
“Shut up!” Halston roared.
He was standing nearby and he couldn’t bear Quinton’s perception about his grandfather, whom he respected the most.
“You’re mentally ill!” he roared.
“Just because you’re insane, doesn’t mean everyone else is.
You’re petty-minded enough to misunderstand an innocent gentleman.” “Who’s the gentleman? Who’s petty?” Quinton snarled.
He was furious, but he put back his gun in the holster around his waist.
