Hammond took off to his house. Jarvis started
bringing his luggage from the house and putting them on
Genos’s back.
Reynold saw him, came, and greeted him.
“Where are you going?” asked Reynold.
“I am going hunting with my brother,” replied
Jarvis.
He went inside the house to bring some of his
luggage.
Reynold followed him inside and said, firmly, “Do
not go, Jarvis.”
“Why not?” asked Jarvis, with amazement.
“Hammond must have learned of what happened,
and he must be up to something,” Reynold replied.
“Do not worry,” Jarvis laughed and said with
confidence. “He is my brother and he would never harm
me. What do you think he would do?”
“Let me go with you then,” said Reynold.
“No. You hate hunting and there is no need for you
to go,” replied Jarvis.
Reynold walked to the door, stood there, stretched
his arms to the left and right. “Do not go, Jarvis.”
That was his final attempt to deter Jarvis from
going.
But, Jarvis walked toward him. “I am going... Do
not worry for me.”
