Chapter 689 You Forget Yourself (Part Two)
"No way!" Francis said decidedly. "I lost her once and I don't want to lose her again. Jason, don't you feel regretful?"
"No!" Jason exclaimed in a cold tone, hiding his emotions deep in his eyes.
Francis coughed, his hands tightly clutching his chest. "When your master accepted a junior disciple, you couldn't stop talking about your junior brother. And later when you found out that the junior brother was in fact a junior sister, you came to me in the middle of the night looking so flustered. You were beside yourself with happiness that you could not speak coherently. You even carved a jade pendant for her with your own hands. I remember she always wore the jade pendant every day."
When Jason heard that, it felt like something was about to spill from his eyes, but he managed to close them in time and said, "Francis, it's already too late! We have to accept the fact that she's Uncle Matthew's wife and our Aunt!"
"So what?" Francis said coldly
he was. After being imprisoned in the tower for so long, Hoffman looked so despondent.
"It seems that you are enjoying your stay here, Hoffman." Jason poked fun at him. "Why do you want to meet Francis?"
Hoffman stood in front of the threshold on the other side, while Jason stood at the entrance of the tower. The two of them were staring at each other from afar. Then, Hoffman asked, "Can you make a decision for him?"
"It depends. I can't tell whether I can make the decision or not unless you tell me what it is about," Jason said, walking forward and moving toward the yard. Even the midday sunshine couldn't dispel the coldness of the tower.
"I want to make a deal with you two." Hoffman cleared his throat. The environment in the tower was just too harsh. Had he not been living in the south domain in the past, he wouldn't have been able to hold on for so long. "I'm sure that Francis would also like to know the secret of the Heavenly Book."
"No!" Jason exclaimed in a cold tone, hiding his emotions deep in his eyes.
Francis coughed, his hands tightly clutching his chest. "When your master accepted a junior disciple, you couldn't stop talking about your junior brother.
