Chapter 1325 Father and Son Meet Final Request
For some reason, from the beginning of the night, Harry had an inexplicable feeling of restlessness in his heart, which made him toss and turn and couldn't sleep all night. In this difficult process, he reached out for his phone again and pressed the redial button.
As before, phone calls were never answered. And with a different number, the result is the same. This situation really made Harry a little uneasy. It's understandable to say that Skye's phone can't get through, but it's a little too strange that he can't even get through to his own home. Even if old Osborne had already slept, the servants and housekeepers of the house had no reason not to answer the phone.
Thinking of this, Harry was clearly aware of something. And just as he was about to leave immediately and return to his home in Beverly Hills from his apartment, a loud noise came from his living room.
Harry was taken aback by the suddenness of the incident, and after hastily pulling a pistol out of a drawer, he cautiously reached in the direction of the living room.
It is likely that there will be intruders, and in the face of this uninvited intruder, it is clear that bullets are the best gift to entertain them. Although he didn't have the idea of killing, if things were really bad, then he wouldn't be so jealous that he couldn't even pull the trigger. This is the United States, where gun freedom is legal and private fiefdoms are sacrosanct. It's not impossible to kill an intruder who might be a danger to yourself.
Creeping into the living room, Harry carefully turned on the chandelier in the living room. Of course, because of the loud noise before, the living room was damaged a lot, so much so that even the chandelier was the same. But it is not completely incapacitated, but it is able to release some light more or less. The light was faint, but it was enough for Harry to see the uninvited guests in the living room. And after seeing the identity of this uninvited guest, Harry was immediately shocked.
"Father, why are you here?"
Harry, who had never expected to meet his father in this way, was shocked beyond words. He could clearly see his father's current situation, his whole body was covered in smoke and fire, his hair, which had never been meticulously groomed, was half burned, and his face, which was so rigid that it was almost harsh, was covered with blisters and scars from the heat.
And that's not even the worst of the worst cases, his father lost a hand and a foot. The wound was strangely as if it had never had these two parts, not only was the incision extremely smooth, but it also looked as if it had been healing for many years.
Of course, Harry knew it was impossible. Because he had only seen his father's sound hands and feet yesterday. So this must have happened within this day. It's just that he really doesn't have a clue what made his father look like this.
In order to know the truth, but also to help his father. Harry immediately rushed over, holding his father in his arms, and then patted him in the face and called out to him, trying to wake him out of his stupor.
"Hey, Daddy, Daddy! It's me, Harry. Wake up, what the hell is going on with you? Hell, why did you become like this? Who did it to you, and what are they trying to do? ”
With such a question, Harry pulled out his phone and tried to call the police and an ambulance. It's just that as soon as he lifted the phone, a hand was already stretched out, and the phone in his hand flew out directly.
"Don't call the police, Harry. Doing so would expose me, ahem......"
Osborne Sr., who had awakened from a coma, had shown unprecedented weakness and decline, and Harry had become even more helpless in the face of his change.
"Dad, what the hell is wrong with you? Why did you become like this? Was it assaulted? Still is... Hell, what the hell is this? ”
It was only then that Harry noticed the Green Goblin armor on Old Oss himself, and the crevice-like structure that made him immediately exclaim. Seeing Harry's performance like this, old Osborne, who was already very weak, couldn't help but twitch his eyes, but soon, he made his eyes firm again.
He began to struggle to sit up, but it was difficult for him to do so on his own, because of the weight of his traumatized body. Seeing his intentions, Harry immediately reached out and helped him up. Harry couldn't bear to see his strong father look like this, so he spoke to him almost pleadingly.
"Daddy, let me call an ambulance. You're in such a bad condition that if you don't go to the hospital, then you really won't be able to hold on. ”
"It's useless, I know my own situation. Even if I called an ambulance, they couldn't help me! ”
Shaking his head and rejecting Harry's plea, old Osborne shook his hand and pulled out a cube from his chest that looked like a Rubik's cube. He shoved the cube into Harry's hand, so powerful that the edges of the cube were embedded in the flesh of Harry's palm.
This caused a painful look on Harry's face and blood to flow from his hands. However, because he was worried that he would hurt his father, he did not make any struggles, but endured the pain and said to old Osborne.
"Father's ......"
"Hold on, this pain shouldn't be much of a deal to you."
The inexplicable words made Harry's heart more doubtful. Soon, he felt the incredible changes taking place in the Rubik's cube-like cube in his hand.
It melted, melted in its own blood, melted into its own wounds. Harry was surprised that it was able to take on such a form despite having a metal-like texture. Of course, in addition to surprise, he was more frightened. After all, an unknown thing got into his body, even if this thing was brought by his father, he believed that his father would not harm him. But from the instinct of the human body, he couldn't help but be afraid.
However, before his brain could be completely overrun by fear, everything had stopped. This wasn't to say that something had interrupted the process, but that the entire cube had been integrated into Harry's body, completely becoming a part of his body.
He didn't know what it meant, and he didn't even notice the fact that his wound was gone. He was still in shock, and now he was only full of questions to tell his father, and before he could speak, old Osborne was already speaking to him one step ahead of him.
"Listen, Harry. I know you have a lot of questions on your mind right now. But time is running out for us. So, you'd better listen to me now. These are the secrets that I must tell you, and you must keep them in your own hands. Only in this way can the Osborne family survive, you know what I mean? ”
For the Osborne family, which has been around for many years, the continuity of the family is obviously the most critical issue. And Harry, who hadn't figured out how all this could have anything to do with the continuation of the family, could only nod his head in a daze when faced with this old Osborne.
This reaction did not satisfy the elder Osborne, but as he said, time was running out, and he could not force anything more. So he could only continue to tell him like this.
"Listen, Harry. The Osborne family is now gone, and even I am afraid that something will happen to me soon. Maybe the Osborne Group will survive, but it's hard to say that you'll inherit all of this. But don't worry, I've got you covered. ”
"I have a lot of things in your name that will help you keep the Osborne Group firmly in your hands. Of course, you may encounter a lot of resistance along the way, but remember that you are from the Osborne family, and you can't give up easily, no matter what. Use all your abilities to get your hands on this wealth that belongs to Osborne. Only in this way can the glory of the Osborne family continue to live on in you. Only then will you be able to avenge me and the Osbornes. Do you understand? ”
The sheer amount of information revealed in Old Osborne's words had already clogged Harry's brain in an instant, making his whole body wooden. And looking at his reaction, old Osborne himself was also stunned. He seemed to realize something, which silenced him. It was only a moment later that he let out a long sigh.
"If, I mean if, you can't do all of this that I'm talking about. Then Harry, my son. Promise me that you must find a way to protect yourself. Even if it is to leave this country, even if it is to go to a completely unfamiliar place, to live an incognito life. You have to survive well, too. To be alive is also a kind of continuation. I hope you understand that. ”
"I don't understand! Dad, why is it like this? Why is this related to the continuation of the family, and why something happens to you? And why am I doing these things that you're talking about. What the hell is going on, and why is it the way it is? I need an explanation! ”
"You don't want to know that, Harry. But if you really feel like you need an explanation, then I can tell you what it's all about! ”
