The relationship between the three most important men in my life at the moment isn't great. My father doesn't understand Fatty, and my grandfather knows this rascal too well. Fatty's current attitude of erupting and hitting is a kind of test; he wants to see to what extent grandfather will back him!
This guy can never escape his small-town shrewdness!
When the doctor confirmed that Adolf was not seriously hurt, Hastings, amidst everyone's disappointed gazes, calmly said, "Dinner's getting cold. Let's go inside."
He expressed no opinion on this conflict and had no response to Fatty's complaints. Yet, for the Hastings family's people, this was still a clear signal.
No outsider can hit someone in the Hastings house, and certainly, no one can leave unscathed after doing so.
And this Fatty is the first, and the only one!!!
