A Red Dead Redemption Story

Chapter 160 Ms. Grimshaw’s Visit

Arthur has just arranged for Vera and Lenny to take Hosea back to Valentine first, and then Arthur is going to ask Pralis to help contact some doctors and experts. After all, he is pretending to be sick. Over the years, a lot of medical resources have indeed been accumulated.

"Who's Preliss?" Lenny asked.

Arthur smiled and replied:
"A magical man who has been suffering from diarrhea for nine years. You will know when you go there. I asked Vera to bring a message to Marybeth. She will help you arrange it."

Not long after Arthur sent them off, several people came to the office that surprised Arthur.

I saw Sean walking in front, followed by Susan, Tilly, Karen, Abigail and little Jack.

Arthur looked at them and asked with a smile:

"What's going on? There are so many people here today, and even you, Ms. Grimshaw, are here."

When Ms. Grimshaw heard Arthur's words, she asked:

"What do you mean, even I'm here? Arthur, can't I come?"

"No, no, that's not what I meant, Ms. Grimshaw, nice to meet you." Arthur quickly denied.

Although Arthur didn't know why all the girls in the camp came, he still had to entertain them first. Arthur quickly asked them to sit down, and then prepared to bring them some nuts and tea himself.

Originally, these things were done by Marybeth or Vera, but now they are gone, and even Charlie was sent to pick them up by Arthur, so only Arthur can do these things.

However, in the end, it was not so much that Arthur brought it to them, but that Susan and the girls did it on their own.

Because Arthur didn't find these things for a long time and put them there.

After Arthur also sat down on the chair on the side, Susan, who was sitting on the sofa nearby, directly explained her purpose to Arthur straight to the point:

"Arthur, the reason why I brought the girls to you today is actually because I feel that the current camp is no longer suitable for the girls to stay."

Hearing what Susan said, Arthur suddenly felt a little confused.

What is today’s camp?

What happened in the camp?

Looking at Arthur's confused expression, Susan continued to explain:
"Daqi, he brought a group of people back to the camp. At the banquet a few days ago, we stopped them from groping the girls. But Daqi's attitude was very chilling. He forgot his promise. He also gave up his bottom line and did not choose to stand on his own side..."

"..."

Arthur didn't know what to say for a while. It seemed like Dutch had found new helpers, and then after weighing their use value, he finally chose to give up on these girls. This was very Dutch, and I still listen to it today. Arthur didn't know why he wasn't surprised at all when he saw something like this.

After listening to Susan's complete story.

After Arthur understood the ins and outs of the whole thing, he said seriously:
"Don't worry, Ms. Grimshaw, I will arrange it for you..."

"No, you may have misunderstood, Arthur, I just arranged for them, I am not ready to leave yet" Susan interrupted Arthur.

Although both Arthur and Hosea have left Dutch, Susan still doesn't plan to leave.

Not to mention that she spent most of her life wandering around with gangs. When she thought about leaving this life one day, to be honest, she was not ready. Moreover, in Susan's view, Even the stinky men in the camp couldn't do without her care, at least that's what she thought.

Susan couldn't imagine what Dutch's camp would look like without her.

Listening to Susan's words that she didn't intend to leave, Arthur frowned. He was seriously considering how to persuade Susan to stay with him when he heard Susan continue: "I know, leave all the girls to you to take care of." , may cause you some difficulties, but Arthur, they can only rely on you now."

Arthur said quickly:

"No, Ms. Grimshaw, this matter does not make me feel embarrassed. You are family to me. And this is what I have mentioned to Tilly, Karen and Abigail before. I have already persuaded them to give up their current life, but they did not agree at the time."

As he was talking, Arthur suddenly realized a problem, no, why are there only Abigail and little Jack here?
Now that they have decided to leave the gang, what about John?

Is it possible that John still decided to follow Dutch?
Arthur looked at Abigail and asked:

"Where's John? He..."

Abigail was sad and upset when Arthur mentioned John, and she said:

"Arthur, please don't mention him. John and I have already had a quarrel, and he didn't listen to me. If it's still like before, with all of you in the camp, I think I might be able to persevere, but What is the camp like now? Dutch is still thinking about his new plan, and the new group of people... I can't stand it anymore, I can no longer hold on with little Jack. "

Arthur didn't know how to comfort Abigail. Seeing her collapse at the end, Arthur could understand her current mood.

It can only be said that this is indeed a strong woman, but she is still a mother. No matter how much she loves John, she has given enough, and as a mother, little Jack is something she has to consider.

Especially when bastard John still looks like he doesn't care.

Arthur really didn't know how long it would take John to grow up.

Looking at Tilly and Karen who were comforting Abigail, Arthur said to Susan seriously:

"Ms. Grimshaw, think about it again. I hope you can stay together. Today's camp is not just the hidden dangers you see. It also has other unsafe factors. I didn't tell you before. , but I’m sure that the Pinkertons will raid the camp soon.”

Arthur was not talking nonsense. From the time Molly was captured until now, although Arthur has not seen anyone from Milton again, it is obvious that this is not because they gave up on Dutch, but more likely because Because they had already found clues about Dutch and the camp, otherwise Milton would have come to Arthur again and asked Dutch about the location of their new camp.

It was this lack of movement that made Arthur guess that Pinkerton might take action soon.

Susan had no doubts. She believed what Arthur said directly, but she still said to Arthur very calmly:
"If that's what you said, then I have to stay in the camp even more. Arthur, you are a good boy. I understand that you care about me, but I think I am already too old to adapt to the new environment. life.”

Seeing that Susan was not ready to leave the camp, Tilly said:
"Ms. Grimshaw, if you insist, then I won't leave either. I will stay with you in the camp."

"What nonsense, Miss Jackson, don't let your temper take over. I don't remember how I taught you this." Susan said sternly.

But Tilly did not obey this time, she still said firmly:
"Ms. Grimm, please tell me, why do you insist on staying? I know you very well, and you can clearly face various new environments with ease, so I don't believe your claim that you can no longer adapt. The reason for a new life.”

Looking at Tilly with a serious face in front of her, Susan did not choose to educate her with a rough slap this time. Obviously, the education she received from her parents was not applicable at this time. She understood that she had successfully taught her Tilly has become a better person than herself.

Susan smiled. This smile contained a lot of meaning. She answered Tilly's question seriously and said:
"I think the reason I'm staying with the gang is probably because I consider it my home and I take care of everyone and I'm glad I can help you guys."

Arthur listened to what Susan said and couldn't help but trembled in his heart. Who among everyone in the gang didn't regard it as their home?

"Ms. Grimshaw, but everyone you love has left there one by one, leaving the place that we all regard as home. Is there anything more important than being with the one you love?" Is it something? We treat the gang as a family not because of the gang, but because of everyone living together in this gang. We help each other and support each other. This is family." Tilly seemed a little excited at the end. , she really didn’t want to leave Susan alone.

Tilly's words silenced everyone present. In Arthur's opinion, Tilly's words were very convincing. Looking at Susan who was already a little shaken, Arthur also spoke to persuade her. road:
"I understand you, Ms. Grimshaw. The me before and you now are actually the same. If possible, I would not want to leave, but I think you can all feel it, Dutch, and this Gangs, they're getting more and more dangerous, and if you stay there, you're just going to get sucked into something even worse and more dangerous."

Susan opened her mouth, and after a while she spoke again:
"I...I hope that all of you can live a better life. Although, now we are just working hard for survival. Arthur, you have really given us hope for a better life, but I……"

Arthur interrupted her and said:
"There's nothing wrong with it, Ms. Grimshaw. Open your eyes and look at the road ahead. Will the road that Dutch is determined to go down now, can it really bring us all long-term, true happiness? You stay there but you can only watch Dach and them go to a darker future, girls, I, all of us hope you can be with us, I promise you, I will definitely give everyone a new Yes, a stable life!"
