A row of limousines stops at the door of the manor. Rodney opens the car door, and Brian steps out.

“Dear Brian, you’re here. In the morning, I heard Rodney said that you would come here, so I have prepared some kinds of breakfast that you like.” Tabitha walks on hurriedly and holds his arm with a charming voice as soon as she notices that Brian has already stepped out of the car.

“Thank you, but I’ve eaten it.” The indifference on Brian’s face does not vanish despite the presence of Tabitha. His voice is cold and he gives one a sense of distance.

“Really? Well I’ll prepare your favorite fruit.”

Tabitha makes an eye gesture to one of the maids and turns to look at Brian, smiling.

Florence shakes her head speechlessly in the car. Tabitha deliberately curries favor with him and she can even feel it in the car, not to mention Brian.

Sure enough, Brian gently takes her hand away, and his eyes become severe, “I am not here to eat today, tell me why did you hit her by car.”

Hearing that, Tabitha’s face becomes pale and her throat tightens suddenly, and she prevaricates, “Brian, let’s go into the room first, into the room.”

Brian nods, and is about to raise his foot, but turns to the other side of the car. Tabitha looks at him doubtfully.

“Get off, and how long are you going to stay in the car?”

Brian opens the door and bends down to look at Florence in the car with a low voice.

“You come here today for…”

Florence also heard what he said jus now, and she looks shocked for she did not expect that he would come to Su Family for accountability.

“Get off.”

Florence knows what he is going to say and ignores him.

She lowers her head and walks out of the car. At the moment she holds his hand, she is more like a princess who is taken care of elaborately.

Tabitha, who is standing aside, looks at the two people in front of her, and her eyes are full of jealousy. When she sees that Brian stretches out to let Florence take his hand, the anger immediately breaks out in her heart, and the hands hanging on her side are clenched tightly. The desire to go up and tear Florence into pieces becomes stronger and stronger.

“Brian, why do you bring her here?” Tabitha steps forward with an indifferent tone, “Do you bring her here without thinking what my sister would think about?”

Tabitha knows that Antonia is Brian’s Achilles’ heel, and there is nothing wrong with using her as an excuse.

“It has nothing to do with your sister, the parties must be on the spot.”

Brian takes Florence’s hand and skips Tabitha, leaving this sentence indifferently.

“…” Tabitha is so angry that she says nothing, and turns away, her black eyes staring at Florence.

A group of people enter the house, and Florence is led into the house by him, and his hand is not released until he reaches the sofa.

The feelings are mixed in her heart, which seems that something has disturbed her mind, and it is difficult for her to calm down.

“Ah, Brian! You come so early! Sit down, please …”

The parents of the Su family, who were pleasing and flattering at first, suddenly change their faces and their tone becomes surly when they see Florence. “Why do you bring her here, we don’t welcome her!”

“Do you still think my daughter Antonia is not pitiful enough?” The father stands there with his hands folded behind his back, pretending to be sad.

“My poor Antonia, she is no longer in the world, but the one who hurt her is coming here to torture her family.” The mother stands there with her hands covering her chest, looking even sadder.

Tabitha quickly steps forward to help her mother, and also laments, “Brian, do you bring her to stimulate us?”

“I think you should tell me why Tabitha knocked her down with car that night.”

Brian goes straight to the subject without paying much attention to Su family’s response.

Hearing that, the three of the Su family are trembling. Tabitha steps forward first, and suddenly twitches her mouth, saying with a weeping cry, “Brian, are you asking me for accountability for her now?”

Florence gives a cold glance at Tabitha, and then turns to look at Brian. She also wants to know the answer.

“I’m just talking about the incident. What I want to know is just the truth.”

Brian’s face is cold and he frowns. Su Family’s delay in giving a reply makes him irritable.

“But you’re scolding me for her.” Tabitha is further angered and even starts crying, covering her face.

“Brian, you know Tabitha’s character and she can’t do this kind of thing. You see …”

“Yeah, there are really some reasons why Tabitha did it that night. You can’t reprove us for someone who killed my daughter.”

Su family complain one after another and the whole living room becomes very noisy.

Florence doesn’t say a word from the beginning to the end. She just wants to see what Brian will do next.

The next second, Brian yells, “I say what I want is the truth, not to hear you cry here!”

Although Brian has done a lot for them because of Antonia, they are still afraid of him after all. Hearing the voice is so loud, they immediately hold back their emotions, sitting together and daring to say nothing.

“Tabitha, you say, why did you do that that night?” Brian sits down again, one leg crossed and his hands spread out on the sofa. From Tabitha’s point of view, he is hugging Florence.

“Florence, you are amazing!” Tabitha whispers secretly in her heart, turning her head and showing an aggrieved face, sobbing, “She suddenly broke into my house that night, and it was very dark and I thought it was a thief. I didn’t know whether I lost any valuables so that I drove to chase her, but I didn’t know that I would hit her.”

After saying, she doesn’t forget to take out a tissue to wipe the few tears on her face.

“Ah.”

Florence, who is sitting opposite, hears the whole story, and can’t help sneering. It is a pity for Tabitha not enter the entertainment industry for her development.

Brian is close to her, so it is naturally that he hears her sneer and turns to look at her without asking.

“The security system of your Su family is so poor? That even you, the princess of Su family, has to chase thieves in person?” Brian’s eyes glance darkly at them, showing a complex look.

Locked by Brian’s eyes, the three people can do nothing but move their eyes, and begin to complain about Florence as a new topic.

“Brian, it is true that Tabitha accidentally bumped her that night. But you know how good the relationship between Antonia and Tabitha is from a young age. If Tabitha really wanted to hurt her, she would have hurt already. How could she be safe now and sit there!” Some words from Father Su immediately target Florence for attack.

The implication is that “we are still soft-hearted for she killed our daughter and we haven’t hurt her yet.”

And who will argue against such a rhetoric? No one.

Florence is just sitting there and lowering her head to play with her fingers, for she knows clearly that as long as Antonia’s death is mentioned, the man next to her would directly believe them without any reason.

Sure enough, Brian gets up and stands next to the window, puts his hands in his pants pockets, and his voice becomes dumb. “Well, this is the end of it, and there is no need to continue querying.”

Although Florence knows that he will be definitely partial to Su Family, at the moment when she heard him say that there is no need, she still feels upset for a second. After all she cannot compare with Antonia.

Time is slowly approaching noon. The sunlight outside the window becomes dazzling, and the living room becomes brighter.

“Brian, I also did something wrong. It was too dark that night, so that I hit her. If my sister were here, she would definitely blame me.”

Tabitha steps forward and hands the coffee to Brian, and the remorse on her face looks real.

“Antonia.” Brian hears the words, and a picture occurs to his mind in which she got her hair wet because of helping him look for the jade abroad. The emotions inside are very complex.

His tone becomes gloomy, and his cold eyes suddenly darken, as if some one hit the nail on the head.
