Chapter 369 Go Hunting With Hiram (1/2)
”Let's go hunting now,” Hiram replied.
”Hunting? I thought that hunting has long been forbidden!” Rachel mumbled as she sipped her milk. Most of the wild animals were now government protected, and game hunting had become almost obsolete.
Hiram shook his head and said,”No, there are animals raised solely for hunting. It's totally legal.”
Rachel grunted. She knew that Hiram was a good shooter. He must really love this game even though not many people still engaged in this sport nowadays.
He glanced at his wife, who was sitting beside him. He was trying his best to stay with her because of what she was going through.
She had been trying to be normal in front of him, but he could see the misery in her eyes. She was always absentminded or forgetting what she was doing.
Popping the last piece of bread into her mouth, Rachel sipped the rest of the milk and then took a piece of tissue to wipe her lips. ”My mom told me that Luke visited her the other day,” she said.
Fannie looked better when she visited her and it was apparent that Luke had already talked to her.
”He's been working on a bail for Fannie, and I believe that she'll be out in a couple of days. So, don't worry, honey! Things are getting better.” Hiram grabbed her hands to comfort her.
”Thank you, honey! All I want is for her to stay with me and live a peaceful life together. She's getting old and I want to spend more time with her as much as I can. I promise that I won't blame Dad for what happened. As long as he stops, I'll move on as if nothing happened.” Rachel said as she lowered her head.
If Gavin could get rid of his stubbornness, it would be possible for her to accept him as her father-in-law like before.
”Honey, don't think about it too much. I really don't care about what my father is thinking now.” Hiram said softly in his attractive voice.
”I know that he can't understand it even if I try to talk to him. But do you know what's on my mind? I think that it's our family that owes your family a lot. And Aunt Landy's death could have been a punishment from God.
This is what I believe. Although my father may be unable to think as I do, he will someday.”
