“You and your child still have 20% of the group’s shares, which is your chip.”
Austin’s words suddenly occur to her. She slowly comes to calm down impatience and thinks about that.
If she is not timid to him, neither she nor Nelson will have any benefit. If Nelson stays here,Tabitha would not easily bully him because of Brian. As for herself, she cares little about staying with Brian.
As long as the will in Austin’s hands is still there, she and her child will have nothing to be afraid of.
Florence takes a moment of meditation, then she coughs softly and looks up at Brian, “Well, I promise you.”
“It should be like this.”
Brian beckons Tabitha to take Nelson away.
“Mom…you let me go, I hate you.” Tabitha picks up Nelson and turns to go upstairs.
Nelson in her arms cries and asks for Florence.
“Nelly, be good. I will came to pick you up in a few days. Believe me …” Florence’s eyes fix on Nelson’s small figure, shouting screamingly until his back disappears on the stairs.
The night in the north is chilly, but the heart of Florence is even colder.
When she goes back to the Si’s villa, it is already late at night. Florence sits in the bay window, staring at the white moon outside the window. She looks at the moon, and her eyes dim and her mind is on the crying Nelson a few hours ago.
She is saddened by her guilty heart. What an unsuccessful mother she is.
He was almost taken away when he was unborn. Now the little one is forced to experience this, but she can’t do anything, but just watch her child stay in such a dangerous place.
“Nelly, I am useless. I can’t protect you.”
Florence huddles in the corner, burying her head in front of her knees, says with her choked voice.
The night is so tranquil that it frightens her, and the wind outside is sweeping. In this big room, her loneliness makes her look very miserable.
“The little one refuses to eat and you don’t go to bed, you really have the same temper!”
Brian’s voice suddenly breaks the silence, which makes Florence subconsciously alert.
“What are you doing here?”
Florence secretly wipes the tears in her eyes. She closes her thin lips tightly, stares straight at him and asks.
“I have to inform you when I come to my place?”
Brian seems to hear something ridiculous, and he sneers slightly.
Florence is silent and turns to look out of the window. He is right. Here is his place. What right does she have to ask him?
She is now like a bird in a cage. No matter how hard she flies, she can’t escape this cage forever.
“Brian, you can torture me as you like. But if Nelson is hurt, I will take you down the hell if I die.”
The air is frozen for a few seconds. Florence suddenly breaks the silence. Her tone is so strong that it is more like a warning.
“You don’t have the right to make a decision yet.”
Brian clearly feels her firmness, but he pretends not to care about it. His voice is still cold, “Nelson may be all to you, but he is not to me.”
“…”
Hearing that, Florence’s body trembles. The sentence pulls her out from fantasy. She turns to look at the slender and straight figure, and the fear bursts into her heart.
Yes, Nelson is just an accident for him. Why does he care?
However, Su family have an itch to smash her corpse. Now she should actually leave Nelson there.
When Florence thinks of this, she wants to stand up, but her legs fall feebly and straight to the ground.
Not thinking too much, she immediately lifts herself up and runs
staggering to the door, holding the wall.
“Li, what are you doing again!” Brian feel her anomaly. So he steps forward and grasps her faint wrists. His eyes seem to be a knife penetrating into her heart.
“If Nelson has an accident, you will cut off all my hopes of living, then you accomplish your goal,right?”
Florence almost exhausts his whole body and shakes his hand off, shouting hysterically, with her eyes full of despair.
At this moment she really realizes what a foolish decision she made.
How could she think that Tabitha would not hurt Nelson for Brian’s sake!
Nelson has no feelings for him, how can he take care of Nelson !
“If he has an accident, what of it? Antonia was killed by you four years ago. Now Nelson has just returned to Su family in the same way!”
Brian reaches out and makes his collar. It seems that he does not mind his vicious words.
As if life were a barter business.
He just wants to use the life of Nelson to repay the one she owes to Antonia.
“…”
Florence stands there with her eyes red. She is quivering to disfigurement. Under the faint light is her desperate look.
The whole body is like being watered by a bowl of cold and irritating water poured down from the head, which is cold to her bones, as if she were soaked by ice. Her whole body is chilly.
It turns out that Nelson, as for him, is nothing but the one who compensates for the death of Antonia.
“You carried my lover off four years ago. Now how about letting you experience this feeling?” Brian does not notice her desperate look actually, and his tone is still cruel.
He hasn’t discovered that every word he said just now is like sharp arrows shooting straight into her heart, and every word hurts and stifles her.
“It turns out that you want to retaliate against me by that.”
Abnormally, Florence does not cry. Her voice sounds chilly and horrible, and he stares straight at him and says.
There is no temperature in her heart. So there is nothing to fear.
“So what!”
Brian lifts her chin and his tone is still arrogant and unbridled.
