On Sunday, the entire sky was covered in dark clouds and the air was dry and hot, as if it would rain at
any time.
Robert Hood waited at the entrance of the laboratory for a long time before he saw a black Maybach
driving towards him.
After the car stopped, Sharon Allyson's gaze stopped at the laboratory not far away.
Soon, Jameson Proctor's voice was heard.
"Let's take his car and go over."
Sharon Allyson collected his thoughts and opened the car door with an "oh".
When Robert Hood saw them, he reached out to greet them.He did not feel like he was being forced at
all.
Seeing that Sharon Allyson was looking at the laboratory, he said, "Don't worry, I have arranged it
before I leave."
Sharon Allyson nodded slightly and did not say anything.She knew very well that even if she came
here, she would not be able to enter.
On the way, Robert Hood drove.
Through the rearview mirror, he looked at Sharon Allyson and Jameson Proctor.He seemed to want to
say something but hesitated.
Jameson Proctor said lightly, "If you have something to say, say it."
Robert Hood coughed and looked forward again.
"In fact, it's not an important matter.It's just that the Hood family's requirements are quite strict.After you
go in later, don't run around.Just stay by my side.Don't talk nonsense when we worship our
ancestors.Otherwise, if those old seniors hear it, you will be in trouble."
"Tell me the details."
"If you cause trouble, we'll probably have to kneel in the ancestral hall for ten days and half a
month.Not only that, but you will also eat bitter melon every day.In the name of it, it's to let you
remember this lesson the hard way."
Tsk, that feeling was indescribably uncomfortable.
"Got it," Jameson Proctor said.
Robert Hood turned his head in surprise.He probably didn't expect Jameson Proctor to become so
easy to talk to at this time.
Faced with his puzzled eyes, Jameson Proctor said unhurriedly, "It seems that you have experienced
this many times.I don't need to cause trouble for myself."
"....” Robert Hood.
If he had known earlier, he wouldn't have said anything.
After a while, Robert Hood said, "Also, no matter what questions you want to ask, wait until the
ancestral worship is over.Harry Hood isn't as bad as you think.If you have anything to say, you can Say
it in private.Don't say it in front of so many Hood family members."
Jameson Proctor looked at him expressionlessly.
Robert Hood immediately fell silent and focused on driving.
But then again, if it wasn't for Harry Hood always avoiding him, Jameson Proctor wouldn't have gone to
the Hood family.He was just reminding them out of good intentions to prevent the two of them from
kneeling down together.
Along the way, Sharon Allyson kept looking out of the window and didn't listen to them.
After an unknown period of time, she felt someone gently hold her hand.
Sharon Allyson turned her head and looked at him in confusion.
"?"
Jameson Proctor whispered, "I don't know what will happen after I enter.Stay by my side and don't
leave."
Sharon Allyson nodded.
Robert Hood looked out the window.
"We're here."
Outside, the house could be vaguely seen.
The car drove into two carved doors.
After a few minutes, an antique courtyard appeared in front of them.
There were two words written on the plaque, "Hood family".
At this time, many cars had stopped outside the door.It seemed that Robert Hood had arrived late.
As soon as he got out of the car, a voice immediately said, "What time is it? Why are you back so late?"
Robert Hood turned his head and smiled.
"Second Uncle, there's still time.Besides, haven't you just arrived?"
The middle-aged man was obviously unhappy when he heard that.
He put on airs, "I have serious matters to attend to.Do you?"
"Of course I can't compete with Second Uncole."
At this time, the middle-aged man saw Jameson Proctor and frowned.
When he saw Sharon Allyson behind Jameson Proctor, his frown deepened.
With his hands behind his back, he said in a tone of voice, "Robert Hood, these two are?"
"Oh, I forgot to introduce you.These two are my friends."
The man lowered his voice.
"Friends? Since when can you bring friends to the Hood family? Do you know what day it is today?
You..."
Robert Hood said, "I asked cousin, and he agreed."
The implication was to ask him to find Harry Hood if he had any questions.
The middle-aged man snorted coldly, his face full of bad luck.He ignored him and directly entered the
Hood family.
It was not until his figure disappeared that Robert Hood walked to Jameson Proctor and Sharon
Allyson.
"Sorry to let the two of you see this.This person...is just one of the many rat feces of the Hood family."
After a pause, Robert Hood continued, "Let's go too."
In fact, from the short conversation he had with Harry Hood before, it was not hard for Sharon Allyson
to guess that although the Hood family was large and rich, it was also because of this that they had a
more complicated relationship than the Proctor family.
Among these people, there were good and bad.
Moreover, according to what Harry Hood said, he was not the one who did the things on the South
City’s side, but it was obvious that River City's people were cooperating, and they had not found any
clues until now.
It was very likely that it was related to these people from the Hood family.
Thinking of this, Sharon Allyson’s hands could not help but clench tightly.
After entering the gate, there was an even wider courtyard.
Compared to the Proctor family, it was even more vast.
In the ancestral hall, almost everyone had arrived.
The elders were sitting inside, while the middle-generation ones were standing beside them.
Because there were too many people, a junior like Robert Hood could only stand by the wall of the
ancestral hall.
He whispered, "The ancestral worship ceremony has not begun yet, and everyone has not arrived
yet.We can just stay here.After the beginning, they will have to talk for a few hours.It is not easy to be
discovered when we doze off here."
",...”
Jameson Proctor.
Sharon Allyson, "..."
Robert Hood met their gazes and rubbed his head.
"What...what's wrong?"
This was how he got through every year.
How could he not be sleepy listening to these old men speaking? Jameson Proctor looked away
expressionlessly and looked inside the ancestral hall.
The old man sitting at the top had gray hair and was wearing a Tang suit.He should be Olivia Hood's
great-grandfather.He was also the oldest person in the Hood family.
Even the head of the Hood family, Harry Hood, had to respect him a little.
After a while, the rest of the people also arrived one after another.
Robert Hood had nothing to do, and actually began to introduce them to each other.
Looking at the middle-aged man who walked in, Robert Hood yawned.
"That is Ethan Hood.He is also a very powerful person.The one following him, Olivia Hood, her
daughter.She is..."
Halfway through his words, Robert Hood suddenly remembered a gossip he had heard in the past few
days.He turned his head and looked at Jameson Proctor, his eyes filled with schadenfreude.
Now it was interesting.
Jameson Proctor's expression did not change.
"Are you mute?"
"Oh, then I'll continue.Olivia Hood has just turned twenty.She might be Harry Hood's future wife, but I'm
not sure yet."
