Margie and Oscar had been traveling for almost half a month. In such a short period of time, they had gone to many places. Whenever they went to a place, the two of them would smile and take pictures, as if they wanted to leave something to others.
So when Georgia and others were celebrating the New Year at domestic, they two came to this small island.
They just arrived this afternoon. After sleeping and resting for a few hours in the afternoon, the two of them came out to have supper.
They didn't go to that kind of luxurious restaurants, but just ordered some barbecue, like these people in the street.
"Your daughter didn't call you, did she? Before, she would go home on the New Year's Day, and you would go home, too. She was always looking forward to your coming back, but now, she doesn't give you a call."
Margie said with a smile. Oscar just put the pork in front of Margie.
"She has grown up and known all the truth. It will be abnormal that she gets close to me."
Oscar said these words faintly. Margie suddenly smiled.
"Then why do you believe me? I know all the truth. But now I am so happy with you now. Isn't it abnormal?"
Oscar just continued to roast those meat seriously.
"You can do whatever you want. I don't need to believe you. I just need to be with you. This is your wish. Of course, I will help you realize it."
Margie suddenly felt a little sad. Except for the time when they were just married, the half a month was the calmest and seemingly warm time for them.
She stood up and laughed.
"I'm going to get some wine. Today is the new year at domestic after all. Let's drink some wine to celebrate it. Now, only the two of us can celebrate."
Margie stood up and went straight inside to get the wine. Oscar suddenly received a call from his father.
"Are you crazy enough? You and your wife have been messing around for so many years. Now, you two are traveling all over the world happily regardless of the company affairs. Are you insane?"
On the New Year's Eve, Oscar's father only had his eldest son's family to company him. Oscar's family didn't come back.
He was really angry and couldn't help but called Oscar to question.
Oscar spoke softly.
"Dad, you are getting older. Don't be so stubborn anymore. I'm in my 40s and I've been self-willed for a lifetime. I'm still going to be self-willed. Every decision I made follows my heart. You just leave me alone."
"If you don't come back within three days, I won't let you inherit this company. Don't think I can't kick you out of the company. You don't want the company. There are so many people wanting this company."
"Dad, do you know why I am so rebellious and do whatever I want? Because you have been a stubborn and scrappy person since you were a child. Everyone in the family must obey your instructions. You are the military regulations. You are the commands, and you are the rules. We all have to obey. If we don't obey, we will be punished. Logically speaking, when I grew up in this environment, I should become a habitually obedient person, but I'm rebellious and only like freedom."
"So when I grew up, as long as I want to do something, I will do it. As long as they are what I identify, I will pursue them. I don't care about anything. I live exactly what I want. I wanted to inherit the company. I wanted to prove myself, so I worked hard in the company. After seeing my good performance, you no longer care about my marriage life and private life. Then I have a very free life. I can do whatever I want."
"I probably ruined myself because of this."
"What do you mean?"
Oscar's father frowned and asked. He didn't understand what his son said. He was now discussing the issue of company inheritance with his son. Was his son crazy?
Oscar smiled bitterly.
"Dad, you probably will never understand my feelings. But who can I blame? The eldest brother also grew up in this environment, but he has such a good relationship with his wife. He also has a son. His family is so happy. He is filial to you and compromises with you. But when it comes to his own family, he will resist you. Even you can't help it. Because the eldest brother doesn't care if he can inherit this family. Even if you kick him out, he doesn't care. On the contrary, I will be the only one left in this family if you drive the eldest brother out."
"Even if I'm unscrupulous and never listen to your instructions again, I don't think I should blame you, because this is my natural personality defect. I'm doing what I want. Even if it is too late. But I want to live my last willful life. You can let anyone inherit the company. I don't care anymore."
Oscar's words drove his father mad.
"You really don't want this company anymore? Oscar, what happened to you and Margie? Are you both crazy? You didn't want her before. You didn't come back for so many years, letting your wife stay alone. But now, you are traveling with her all over the world. Are you going to blame me?"
"Dad, I am not a perfect person. I find that I can only blame myself. Don't think too much. Take good care of yourself. You must live a long life. I really won't go back to the company. Now, I would like to remind you one thing. Don't underestimate Georgia and Robert. Don't think about setting them up. They have a firm relationship. As long as you respect them, if the Powell family encounters difficulties in the future, maybe they will be willing to help you a little bit. If you really offend them, no one can save the Powell family."
"Stop talking nonsense! Since you don't want to come back, then never come back!"
Oscar's father was so angry that he hung up the phone. Oscar took a deep breath, and then smiled bitterly.
Having been a loser for a lifetime, in the end, he decided to take the most failed path.
Standing up, Oscar walked to the beach and made a call.
Before long, Carr answered the call.
"Brother, are you by Dad's side now?"
"Oscar, what happened to you and Dad? I heard you two were talking on the phone just now. Dad was so angry that he went to the bedroom. When we had dinner together, he was a little angry because you were not at home. Later, he called you. I couldn't hear what you two said, but Dad has gone to bed angrily."
"Dad has been like this all his life. He can't change it. Brother, you have to take good care of Dad. I have been willful in this life. So I intend to be willful to the end. Maybe I won't come back for a long, long time. Don't take long-distance tasks. Stay with Dad for a while."
Carr laughed.
"Got it. You aren't at home. If I'm not here, Dad will definitely be lonely. He is old and stubborn for a lifetime. He speaks arrogantly. Only I can bear his temper."
"Yeah, brother, you have a good temper. Sometimes I don't understand why we two grew up in the same environment but you can deal with Dad's various anger and requirements with ease, and even meet his requests so well. Only I seem to always want to break free from the shackles Dad gave us. I have been rebellious all my life, but I have never broken away from the Powell family. But Aston can pluck up the courage to leave this family easily. Am I too cowardly?"
"Why do you think that? Some personalities are innate. My personality is probably like Mom. Your personality is a bit like Dad. But we are all about 50 years old. Don't be stubborn about these things anymore. Now, since you and Margie got back together, just live happily. As long as you are willing to turn around, it's not too late. I used to worry that you would continue to be so lonely for the rest of your life. But fortunately, you two finally got back together."
When Carr said this, Oscar looked at the sky above his head. Suddenly, he felt a tear drop on his face.
