Chapter 1292 I was truly moved.
Da Bao has always been kind to these people from the bottom of society. No one is born wanting to live this kind of life. If they were not forced by life, no one would take this path.
He said softly,
“I blew up all the buildings in the neighborhood for the Albanians. There were absolutely no survivors. I beheaded their leader in the Black Widow’s casino. If you have a grudge against them, then that grudge has been settled.”
Da Bao waved to Uncle Qing, who went into the bedroom and brought out two suitcases. He placed them in front of Da Bao, opened them, and found them full of banknotes.
The prostitute was stunned by the amount of money in front of her; she had never seen so much money in a bank, because she had never been to a bank.
Da Bao pushed the banknotes over.
"Thank you for your help. It was because of you that I was able to rescue my sister. Here are two million francs, all of them are yours. Now, where are you and your daughter going? My friend will help you start a new life."
Arthur smiled and nodded; this meant nothing to him.
Upon seeing the money, the woman couldn't help but kneel down, clutching her child. Zuo Mingyue helped her up, and Arthur pressed the call button. His two men pushed open the door and came in. Arthur whispered a few words to them, and the two men bowed respectfully before leading the woman and child out.
Sophia stared in astonishment at everything before her. She hadn't expected Da Bao to be so kind and approachable to a lowly prostitute. Little did she know that in Da Bao's heart, these people at the bottom of society were only dirty in body, but their hearts were far cleaner than those of nobles like Sophia.
Just then, Arthur's subordinate knocked and entered. He whispered a few words to Arthur, who nodded. The subordinate then left.
Arthur hesitated for a moment before speaking.
"Charlotte, Notre Dame Cathedral was mostly destroyed by fire, and nearly a hundred believers and priests were buried underneath. The Vatican has discovered the fire and ordered a serious investigation; it seems impossible to keep it a secret any longer."
Why don't we go back to London now? The Catholic Church doesn't have that much influence there; the Pope's reach doesn't extend that far.
According to my men's investigation, the Knights of St. John have already set off with the Iron Crusade. It should take them three days to arrive by ship. Perhaps we should avoid a direct confrontation for now.”
Da Bao smiled dismissively, his eyes looking down on everyone, and turned to Zuo Mingyue to speak.
"They've got quite a prestigious title, like they can intimidate people. The Iron-Blooded Crusade, I'll make sure they can't leave."
After spending these past few days together, Sophia realized that her son-in-law was no ordinary man; he was wealthy, exceptionally intelligent, and now, it seemed, equally skilled in martial arts.
She made up her mind, and when she woke up the next morning, Athena ran to the suite where Zuo Mingyue was staying and cried as she spoke.
"Sister, brother-in-law, something terrible has happened! Mom and Dad have left a letter and gone."
Zuo Mingyue quickly snatched the letter from Athena's hand. After reading only a few lines, she couldn't help but burst into tears.
The letter was written by Sofia. Several lines of the letter were blurred with tears. Zuo Mingyue didn't recognize a few words and hurriedly asked Da Bao for help.
Da Bao then learned that Sophia and Zuo Wenbin had gone to the Vatican. They would plead guilty to the Pope and await his judgment. In the letter, they instructed Zuo Mingyue to take good care of her younger siblings.
This time, Da Bao was truly moved. He had always held a lot of disapproval of Sophia and Zuo Wenbin, believing them to be too weak, especially Zuo Wenbin. If he had just stood up to the country even a little, Zuo Mingyue wouldn't be living such a miserable life.
Da Bao didn't believe that the relevant domestic departments didn't have information on Zuo Mingyue; otherwise, the operation against Da Bao wouldn't have been so meticulously planned.
The reason why Da Bao went into exile overseas was because he was heartbroken by some people in the country. He had done so many practical things for the country and the people, and the central government must have known about this. However, for the benefit of some people, they did not hesitate to harm these meritorious officials, especially people like Zuo Wenbin, who was alone overseas and faced countless risks, but never complained to the country.
This comrade actually distorted the facts and used his daughter to persecute others. Da Bao really couldn't stay any longer. If he stayed any longer, he was afraid he would kill someone, and then he would never be able to turn back.
He didn't believe it either, not even about Sofia. Sofia's mother hadn't left behind any way to subdue Orleans, but Sofia preferred to go to Austria and live in that godforsaken town rather than deal with Orleans.
This time, Da Bao couldn't stand her weakness, so he took down Orleans with overwhelming force, killed Gary, and left Sofia with no room for maneuver. But even so, Sofia only drove Orleans back to her fiefdom.
In truth, Da Bao didn't understand. As a reincarnated individual with the cheat-like ability of a spatial dimension, he considered himself a god in this world. He figured if he couldn't win, he could simply hide in his spatial dimension, and nobody could do anything about it.
Having thus secured his invincibility, Da Bao's personality underwent a complete transformation. He no longer considered things from other people's perspectives; to him, no matter the power, including nations, they were all just objects.
Therefore, he chooses to conquer by force no matter what. For Da Bao, he will not compromise with anyone except his family.
However, Sofia was different from Zuo Wenbin. Zuo Wenbin was an older generation of revolutionaries, one of the people who truly had faith. For him, the meaning of the country far outweighed his own life, and he would not hesitate to sacrifice his life for the country.
This is why many veteran cadres, despite being persecuted, oppressed, and attacked, have never uttered a bad word about the country, nor have they ever opposed it.
Such people might seem a bit old-fashioned to Da Bao, but it is precisely because of people like them that the country exists.
As for Sofia, she was not weak. What she cared about was not Orleans and others, but her reputation in European aristocratic circles, which was of paramount importance to her.
But this time, she and Zuo Wenbin went to the Vatican to take the blame for their son-in-law, hoping that the Vatican would stop sending people to hunt down Da Bao and their daughter.
Da Bao'er stood up and went to the French windows, gazing at the lingering smoke in the distance. A gust of wind blew in from Notre Dame Cathedral, carrying with it the smell of burning. For the first time, he examined himself: had his methods been too ruthless?
This was the first time Da Bao had doubted himself since his rebirth. His brows were furrowed, and his heart was as turbulent as the waves of the sea.
Zuo Mingyue walked gently behind him and wrapped her arms around her husband's waist. She couldn't press her face against his back now, but she could let him feel the three little ones kicking and punching inside him.
