[Superman] The villain brother is too stealthy
Chapter 24 The Inexplicable Robbery
It wasn't Gabriel's idea to see Mr. McCay once a month.Although she liked Mrs. McCay very much, she didn't have to see the results once a month.It's just that there are some things that even Lex can't say, and can only be done through Mr. McCay.
The McCay family wasn't very big--for a lawyer, their family was pretty average.A small two-story villa with a small garden—two huge phalanxes in the garden, which shaded the front of the house.
Mrs. McCay had been waiting at the door early.
She is an extremely kind old lady. Although her hair is gray, she is very energetic. She doesn't hire a nanny or servant, and she cleans the whole house by herself every time.
Seeing Gabriel's car drive in, she grinned, and naturally reached out to hug Gabriel who got off the car: "Are you alone?"
"What's the matter? You don't welcome me?" She pouted her mouth as a gesture, "You don't love me anymore."
"It hurts, it hurts, why doesn't it hurt?" Mrs. McCay let go of her arm funnyly, and took her hand, "David is waiting for you in the study, go and talk to him first, I will prepare for you Lemon tea to go."
"En, thank you, Grandma Mary~" She smiled and gave the other party a kiss on the cheek, and went upstairs as soon as she entered the room.
Mr. McCay's study was just like his, smelly and hard, as Mr. Luthor called it, without even a little decoration.The only two chairs didn't even have cushions, and I don't know how Mr. McCay endured it.
Mr. McCay, who knew Gabriel would arrive at this time early in the morning, was not surprised at all. He took the cash in her bag and piled it on the desk without even counting: "He is not much younger than you, and He's still a boy, so don't you worry about raising him if you keep giving him money like this?"
"Although he is not much younger than me." Gabriel sat on a chair beside him and put his bag aside helplessly, "but he is also my younger brother. You know, I only found out about this before my mother passed away. .What can I do? He is not a child of the Luther family, and even his name is taken by a child who does not know how to come here. All I can do is to give him a little help in life."
"You can choose to tell Lex." It's not that I haven't discussed this matter with Gabriel. In his opinion, as long as Mr. Luthor doesn't know, it's no big deal. Lex's character is a bit strange, but compared to Mr. Luther was much better.If Gabriel Ken told Lex about this, at least he wouldn't have such a great pressure in life.Even if she is a child of the Luther family, it is not easy to take money out of her own living expenses every month without a trace.
But Gabriel shook his head as usual: "Whether you say I'm selfish or partial, I can't let my father know about it at this time. That Lucas was originally a cover, if I obey The money to support him, his DNA is the best proof. But Mark is different, I am not unwilling to give him things, in fact, I would rather give him all my share as long as he is willing to help Lex. But you know his character better than I do, and he thinks binary codes are more important. So I'd rather let Lex get over the current difficulties first, and then talk about other things."
"Then you take the money back, Gabriel. Is it true that no one will notice that you took the money out without permission for so many years? Although I don't fight lawsuits much anymore, it's not a problem to support your brother, at most It’s just that you return the money after Lex solves the current crisis.” It was the first time he made such an opinion.
Gabriel looked at the other party unexpectedly: "I don't understand, what do you mean? Although I don't earn much money, I still do a lot of social practice and the like, and my father and Lex won't care about me How about the expenses. And now Lex has also handed over my portrait rights income to me, although it is not much but..."
"I'm here to thank you, Gabriel." Mr. McCay waved his hand, directly interrupting Gabriel's thoughts—he knew what Gabriel meant, and it was nothing more than that she could take out the cash— She never even dared to open an account or anything, because she was afraid that Mr. Luthor would check her account information.Raising a child is not a big problem for her, but it is really not easy to raise a child without a trace, not to mention that Lilian's inheritance is not in her hands yet.If it weren't for Ellen's trust in Lilian and her willingness to help her, how many Marks would have been found out by Mr. Luthor now.
But he really didn't expect what Gabriel is doing now: "You should have heard your mother say about my daughter."
"It has been mentioned, but not much." Gabriel made a gesture of "please tell me".
Mr. McCay smiled wryly—an expression rarely seen on his face.In Gabriel's view, Mr. McCay is simply a superman in another sense. Although he is neither invulnerable nor hot-sighted, he is a well-known justice lawyer, and he has never been so helpless even when threatened: "Her name is Martha McCay, now Martha Kent, and I think you know who I mean."
"Ms. Kent?" Even Gabriel, who knew a lot of things in advance, was surprised. After all, she had never heard of Claire having a grandfather. "But Mrs. Kent never mentioned it."
"I would like to ask you a favor, as the interest on the money I borrowed from you - Clare probably never heard that she has a grandfather, I heard you said about Claire, this is a good boy, by Ma Sha taught very well. So I thought, maybe you can have her as a guest. Isn't she going to apply for Princeton? I just can give her some advice."
"Of course, no problem, I mean... I'll pull Claire over." Gabriel hadn't recovered from the shock yet—it's true that Mrs. Kent had a higher education, but she didn't expect such a coincidence, No wonder Mrs. Kent never said anything to her mother even though she didn't like her father, and she easily accepted that she became Claire's good friend.
"But don't tell her I'm her grandfather." Mr. McCay seemed worried, and added.But it didn't take long for me to be serious anymore.
Compared with ordinary girls, probably because she lived in such a family from the beginning, Gabriel always feels like she doesn't understand anything, but she sees it better than many people.So she can understand without explaining why.Work is also quite reliable.
"In this case... my father just asked me to go to Gotham during the summer vacation. I originally said that I would go to Gotham with you, and you would be unhappy if I introduced Claire to you. But since this is the case, I just told Claire to prepare for her. A surprise——Princeton's senior. Although this senior is a bit old, he can still give her some help." Gabriel quickly proposed a suitable plan, and explained it in time when he saw the other party's disapproving eyes , "Although Gotham... the folk customs are simple, but I have an appointment at Wayne's house. According to my father, although Mr. Wayne is a little unreliable, the most basic etiquette is still in place."
"Is your father forcing your brother on this matter again?" Mr. McCay still couldn't hold back the words - at the beginning, when Lilian said he would marry Lionel Luthor, he disagreed In his opinion, although Lilian likes country life, she will definitely be a good lawyer in the future.But the character of that child is too similar to Martha, and he has to go all the way to the dark when encountering something.Years later, the first thing she asked her to do was that Luther had an illegitimate child.Lilian was still pregnant at the time, and the bastard over there was almost as big as Gabriel.At that time, both Mary and herself persuaded Lilian to divorce, but the child still didn't give up.In the end?The youngest son was not kept, so what happened to the good eldest son and daughter?Even the daughter's every move can become a bargaining chip to persecute the eldest son.
Such a father, if it wasn't because he still has the custody of Gabriel, and he has no blood relationship with Gabriel, he would have snatched Gabriel over and raised him himself.Fortunately, Lex and Lilian's personality is quite similar. Although he was pushed too far by his father and now always looks hypocritical, he is still kind in nature. He still remembers the photo that made Luthor fly into a rage .
"Speaking of..." He finally changed the subject before Gabriel could answer, "How are your nails growing now?"
"It's okay." She stretched out her left hand, and there was no problem with the nails painted in Roland purple. "Although they can't grow back, the surgery is still very useful. Lex asked someone to use my DNA to synthesize a new nail." Put your nails in it, and you can't see it if you don't look carefully after you wash off the nail polish."
"That's good. False nails still hurt?"
"It's not too painful, it's much better than Lex's false eyelashes. Every time I went to transplant eyelashes, I was worried that he would suddenly tell me that I couldn't see anything. In comparison, I just don't have nails. That's all." She smiled, as if it really didn't hurt at all.
In fact, the better way at that time was to ignore it and just take it easy.At that time, even if it was cured, the nails would not grow any more.While Mr. Luthor was operating on Lex, he was also operating on Gabriel's finger.Like a good father.
However, if he hadn't pushed Lex to that point, how could he have chosen to jump off the roof, and how could Gabriel have his nails taken off when he grabbed him?
Mr. McCay could only sigh: "Mary should be ready soon, let's go down to eat."
The author has something to say:
Martha didn't hate Gabriel at first because she had a good relationship with Gabriel's mother~
Grandpa worked really hard for his daughter.
The McCay family wasn't very big--for a lawyer, their family was pretty average.A small two-story villa with a small garden—two huge phalanxes in the garden, which shaded the front of the house.
