Proofread by Peter Gong


Brian gets up and slowly walks to the French window. His heart is empty, and the delicate and aggrieved face and that little boy calling father in his sleep keep flashing in his mind. For a while, he really feels that it is a beautiful thing the three of them to live like this, but he is not that lucky. He can feel that Florence hates him, for he clearly remembers the scene that she stabbed him in his chest with a dinner knife that day. Unconsciously, he thinks a lot about her, picks up the phone and intends to call her, but as soon as he opens the phone, he immediately throws the phone back to the table. Compelling himself not to think about her, he goes to the table, pulls out the drawer, and takes out a cigarette, and lighting it. The smoke curls up, making his vision slightly blurred. Brian blows out one smoke ring after another, puts his legs together elegantly, and leans on the table, repeating the same action.


……


Florence is half asleep for the whole night. Early in the morning, she receives a call, which is from a college student who hasn’t connected her for a long time. She is a little surprised at the time. After all, they have unconnected for many years, and even the purest emotions could not withstand the test of time. In addition, she has experienced so many changes, and she feels even more strange about it. Angelia grins, “Florence, I have a job here. The job is very easy, but I don’t know if you would like to try it?” Florence is very surprised. She clenches the phone at the moment. “Of course, Angelia, I am very grateful. I really need a job at this time, but I don’t know what the job is, and whether I can do it.” “You can rest assured for this job is very easy. Don’t you still feed a child? This is perfect for you. Recently, a client goes abroad and entrusts me with a real estate, and lets me employ a nanny to clean it regularly. Florence, I don’t know if you want to do it. ”


Florence has just moved out with Nelson, and her savings are also meager now. If she keeps doing nothing, everything will be used up and it’s hard for them to live, so at this time work is extremely important to her. “Of course I am willing to do. Angelia, I really don’t know how to thank you.” “It is totally unnecessary for you to stand on ceremony. We are old friends, aren’t we?. Oh, you can live in it before the villa owner returns, as long as you take care of the accounts in the villa.” This job seems to be tailor-made for her, so that she can stay with Nelson all the times, which satisfies both sides. So she does not hesitate and immediately agrees.


After solving the problem of work, Florence is very happy, and she is about to prepare to take everything to the villa immediately. In the evening, she goes to the supermarket to buy some clothes for Nelson and other articles of daily use. However, she never expected that she would meet Tabitha here. Originally, Florence intended to pretend that she didn’t see her, and turned to avoid her. She doesn’t want to fight with her endlessly. But the reality is not as good as she wishes. Tabitha calls her name behind her and she has to stop. The hand holding the shopping cart tightens, and she braces herself up and turns to face her. Tabitha purses and walks towards her slowly with high-heeled shoes.


“It’s really a narrow road. How can I meet you everywhere?” Florence doesn’t say anything, but Tabitha keeps saying. “How do you feel about grabbing a boyfriend from someone else?” She bends her fingers and knocks on the temple as if to recall, “Oh, but you are still dumped by Brian, aren’t you? The wedding was also not completed, and you have become a famous person here now. ” In the face of Tabitha’s sarcasm, Florence doesn’t care. Instead, she feels that she is a bit lamentable, so she just says lightly, “Do you finish? Then I’ll go.” She pushes the shopping cart to turn around, but Tabitha takes a step faster than her. She suddenly grabs her cart while several hidden men are about to step out.


Tabitha suddenly says, “Florence, you and your bastard had better leave here, if you want to use that bastard to tie Brian, then you are too naive!” Florence releases the shopping cart and stares at Tabitha sharply. ” Nelson is Brian’s child. If you say he is a bastard, what is Brian?” Tabitha is taken aback by her sudden momentum. “Tabitha, because some people are already dead, I don’t want to haggle over some things anymore. Do you want me to publicize how your Su family calculated Brian step by step?”


Tabitha is shocked by what Florence said, and her face suddenly turns pale. She subconsciously takes a step backward, and her pupils dim, “What nonsense are you talking about ?!” “What I’m talking about, you must be quite clear about. In those days, your Su family waned. You even let Antonia get close to Brian step by step to play up to Si family, thereby your family relied on them. Don’t tell me you don’t know about these things.” Tabitha grits her teeth, staring at Florence, “Neuropathy!” After that, she intends to escape from here, returning to the Su family to discuss strategies, but she never expects that Brian would come unexpectedly.


Tabitha’s face pales at once, but she reacts quickly with a fluke mentality that maybe he doesn’t hear what they just said. So her face immediately returns to normal, and she walks over with a smile, “Brian, why are you here?” Before she could hold his hand, Brian passes her straight, walking to Florence. His face looks frosty, “What did you mean?” When Florence notices the men who appeared just now, she suddenly understands that these people are his men, and the conversation between Tabitha and her was heard by them.


But it is too cruel for Brian to know the truth now. So she just lies, “Nothing. I, I’ll go back first.” After lying, she stammers subconsciously, and Brian looks at her with his ice-cold eyes, giving her a sense of oppression. Florence lowers her head, closes her eyes, and then tries to escape, but Brian is a step ahead of her and grabs her hand, leaving her no way to take another step forward. And his voice is glum, “Since you are not willing to say, there will be someone to say. ”


Several men in black suits immediately bring Tabitha, and they soon come to the Su family. Tabitha’s face is rather pale, and she has been feeling frightened since she was in the car. Those people have been staring at her, and she even dares not to use her cell phone to send a message to her parents. Her temples jump badly, knowing that she is about to face a storm. A group of people comes to the Su family and Su parents don’t know what happened, so they warmly greet Brian in the manor.
