Before Polly could take a step forward, Hal reacted quickly to stop her. "Stop, please! Even if she
wanted to settle accounts with him, it was not now! Don't delay our work! Don't forget the main purpose
of my bringing you here is to worship grandfather! "
At the sight of Simon, the pictures of how he treated Avril on the JC Island flashed through Polly's mind
like a movie. She was so dizzy that she almost forgot her original intention to come here.
"Don't worry. Wait a moment. Let me figure out a way!"
Polly's mood was a little stable, so they looked over together. He only saw that Simon put a bunch of
chrysanthemums in front of his grandfather's tombstone, "don't worry, please let me take care of Avril. I
will treat her well and won't let her suffer. "
His voice was so soft that both of them heard it. From where they stood, they could only see a small
part of his face, not the expression on it.
In front of him was the lofty mountain. The tombstone was surrounded by green cedar grasses. The
sun in the west gradually moved to the side of a tall tree, and the intertwining branches and leaves cast
a large shadow. It was quiet all around, like a pool of water that was bruised for thousands of years. In
such a dull and serious atmosphere, Simon's soft tone showed a bit of solemnness of promise.
"What are you doing?". If it was someone else who heard such words like vows, she must be moved,
but she would not. She only had one feeling that he was too shameless.
He not only deceived people, but also dead people! This man was a liar and subconsciously lied.
Poor Avril!
Noticing that there was a change in Polly's mood, Hal pulled her backwards for about three or four
meters and persuaded her sincerely, "Dear Polly, leave here, but you're in front of grandfather's
tombstone! She went there in peace. Let's not argue with Simon here. It would disgust him. "
"Are you satisfied with what I just said?" Simon, who was respectfully bowing to the tomb a moment
ago, suddenly turned around at the place where Polly and Hal were hiding. His eyes were as sharp as
eagle's.
When they came out from the bushes, he had already noticed them. It was no longer necessary to hide
anymore.
"You are such a hypocrite, Simon! How can you lie in front of Grandpa's grave! Do you still have any
humanity? " Polly spoke out. She hurriedly walked a few steps forward, but was pulled back by Hal.
"What's there to be satisfied? It's just a lie!" Hearing that, Hal pulled Polly behind him. The skinny boy
with a tall and thin chest fearlessly looked at the sharp eyes of Simon.
"Human heart, it's so complicated!" Simon calmed himself down and suddenly laughed. "I have
destroyed Avril's life, so it's impossible for you to make her happy. If you two hear what I said to
Grandpa, you'll think I'm a vicious and inhuman man! "
"In a word, no matter what I say, I can't escape the bad words."
"You do have a clear estimation of yourself. You know what kind of person you are!" Polly got rid of the
grip of Hal and walked up to him. She stared at the tall man opposite her and said, "Simon, you are
such a loser!"
The rays of the setting sun shone down on Simon's face through beams of trees. The sun was bright
and bright like gold-plated white jade, so pretty and gorgeous. Only the faint smile on his lips revealed
his gloomy and unpredictable nature.
Why did Avril fall in love with such a man?
There was a saying that if you were destined, you would meet the man at that moment. What about the
tragedy? It was not late to meet that person exactly at that moment, was it?
Why was Avril so unlucky?
"That sounds great," The evil smile on Simon's lips liked ripples spread with his moving. "Everyone
should know himself well. So, do you know what kind of person you are? "
"No matter what kind of person I am, at least I won't be as cold-blooded and heartless as you!"
"Really? So, in what position did you say that? "
Simon was still walking forward. His eyes were full of anxiety and pressure which made Polly step back
subconsciously.
"Avril's good friend? A good classmate? Or anything else?" "Or is Bruce's girlfriend?"
The last sentence made Polly understand the sarcasm and disdain of Simon. As the best friend of Avril,
she could do nothing but watch her being bullied by others. And as the girlfriend of Bruce, Bruce chose
to pick up Jean at the critical moment.
He wanted to say that she was a more failed person.
"Simon, please don't change the topic!" Hearing this, Polly gasped. She remembered the most
important thing. The person could not be angry at all. When all the blood rushed to the brain, her
sensitivity would be greatly weakened. She would forget what to do.
"Today, I don't want to beat around the bush with you! I just want to ask you, where is Avril now? "
Simon didn't reply. He walked towards Polly with sarcasm and disgust. Hal thought he was going to
hurt Polly, so he dragged her away before he could get close to her. But Simon just passed them
without glancing at them.
That guy just wanted to leave while the two of them blocked his way. The anger rose in her heart again.
She caught up with Simon in a few steps. "You just said in front of Grandpa that you would treat Avril
well! Why don't you let her go? Do you want her to suffer? "
Even though she knew that what he said was not true, she still thought it was a fluke. So she stretched
out her hands and stopped him. "Since you don't like her and don't love her anymore, please let her
come back."
"What a joke!" The smile on Simon's face disappeared. He turned around and looked at Polly with a
faint smile. "Why do you think that Avril will live a good life when she goes back? Staying with me will
be definitely worse than death? I think you'd better pay more attention to Bruce as long as you have
time. Maybe now he is the one who is struggling in distress. "
Hearing what he said, Polly got angry. "What did you say? Didn't Bruce come back with Jean? Didn't
they go on vacation a few days ago? "
"Go on a holiday in South Seaside?" It sounded like he had heard a big joke. "I really have to feel sorry
for him. You've always said that it's a misfortune for me to get together with Avril. But what about
Bruce? Is he lucky to be with you? Do you feel wronged that day when he chose to be with Jean? So
aggrieved that you decided to leave him, but never contacted him? The love you think you love is
nothing more than the house chores between little girls and boys! "
"You think you love him all the time? Tell me, do you know what kind of person Bruce is? If you knew
his past, I'm afraid that as soon as he contacted you, you would refuse him without hesitation! "
Simon passed by her when she was in a daze.
"Hold on, Simon!" "What do you mean? Please make it clear! "
Simon didn't turn back. He strode forward as fast as flying. The mountain road was rugged. Polly only
thought about what Simon said and didn't care about the condition on the road. When she was running
in a hurry, she suddenly felt a resistance from her knees. Her center of gravity lost balance and her
body fell forward.
"Polly! Watch out!" Hal, who had been following her, immediately reached out and held her. "Don't go
after him! Let me see. " He squatted down and removed the vines wrapped around her legs.
"Oh my God! There are thorns on the grass. Your leg is bleeding." Whispered Hal.
Polly was enveloped in a layer of thick green trees and didn't hear what Hal said. "Hal, have you heard
what he said just now? What did he mean? Bruce he! "
She suddenly remembered. She looked down at Hal who was checking her injury and asked, "by the
way, Hal, I asked you to investigate the condition of Bruce. Haven't you gotten any news till now?"
Hal didn't answer. He stood up, pulled her arm and said, "let's get out of here. I have disinfectant in my
car. Your wound must be treated immediately. "
"What kind of wound?" It was not until then that Polly saw her right leg was covered with blood from the
ankle to the back of the knee. Only two or three of the most severe injuries were the bruises.
The condition of her left leg was better than that of her right leg, only with one or two wounds.
Polly insisted on worshiping in front of the tomb of Avril's grandfather. After that, she followed Hal down
the mountain. After getting in the car, he took out the first aid kit. He was so skilled when he carefully
treated her wound with a serious look. He asked in a soft voice from time to time, "does it hurt? If it
hurts, just tell me. I'll be gentle. "
In fact, he was already gentle enough.
Looking at his good-looking face, Polly frowned slightly with his black eyebrows knitted. His expression
was serious and his action was tender and refined, which was totally different from his usual image. At
this moment, he was not the lively guy who always tried to make people laugh, but a gentle and
approachable big brother who was worthy of relying on next door.
Men were always attractive when they concentrated and focused, and even Hal was no exception.
'what a pity! He is such a good man, but God gives him a weak body.
Although there were many such beautiful scenes in life, throughout people's whole life, these beautiful
moments were just a little episode of adding color. The problem that had been neglected was now on
the table again.
Under the investigation of Polly, Hal couldn't keep silent anymore. A hint of sadness flashed through his
clear eyes.
The sun had not yet set, but there was no light on the road in front of the tomb, a row of thick darkness
blocking the sunlight. It was so quiet down the mountain. There was no wind at all. The car seemed dull
and suffocated.
"Dear Polly. Bruce hasn't come back to A City yet." His face, which was enveloped in the shadow of the
trees, looked kind of morbid pale. "As far as I know, he hasn't been to South Seaside."
Hearing that, Polly's heart skipped a beat. The sense of being in air made her words tremble. "So,
where is he now?" she asked
Hal shook his head. In his eyes, there was a motionless, thick tree and a few dim lights reflected. "I
don't know. This man seems to disappear. "
