《The Wanted Wife: Daddy, Mommy Escapes Again!》C18. Come to Su’s House
Advertisement
Florence is hurt by his pull, her brows are tightly wrinkled, and her black eyes turn to Brian. Her tone is faint, "What is the point of saying or not saying?"
"Florence, God is watching your every move. My sister will always stare at you, she will not let you go." Tabitha goes out of the elevator with two hands clenched, stares at Florence and says with indignation.
Florence looks down and walks forward step by step. Antonia’s death will never be clear. Explanation will only make her more disgusted. Silence might be her best camouflage.
At the moment she set foot on the city, she was ready for everything.
But this time, she is not for him. She is just for the little kid she loves the most.
Brian looks towards the petite back, and suddenly surges up a feeling of strangeness in his chest, as if heavy stones were pressing on and suffocating him.
"Stand up, do you know how to go?" Brian steps forward and tightens her slender arm. His voice is cold and he takes her striding forward.
"Li, this time I won't let you run away so easily, you have to pay for the death of my sister!" Tabitha’s beautiful face is full of viciousness,and her narrow and long eyes are more fierce. Her mouth is slightly raised, and a plan is breeding in her mind.
Florence sits in a limousine and looks at the vehicle in front. Brian and Tabitha are there, which makes her quiet a lot.
B City has changed so much in the past four years. Many previous buildings have disappeared. Tall buildings stand undulating,and the roadsides are covered with green grass. This city looks so perfect against sunshine.
Florence puts one hand on the door handle and the other under her chin. She gazes at the scenery outside the window.Her eyes are bright for a moment,but the next second, they suddenly become dimmed. Her face becomes bad-looking.She slowly retracts her sight, bowing her head and playing with his fingers alone and sadly.

Even if B City is so prosperous now, everything has nothing to do with her. Among all cities in the world , it is the only city she dare not adore and miss for it is a city of sadness for her.
"Miss Li, the front is."
Florence’s thoughts are broken by Rodney’s voice. She reacts with much puzzlement and turns her head to look out of the window. The car slowly drives into a boulevard. The trees on both sides are tall and straight. Looking along th road,she sees a white building stands at the end like a castle.Bathed in the sunset, it looks so beautiful and solemn.
"There are many changes." Florence looks up and says unconsciously.
Four years ago, Su’shouse was just a small yard. It was already better than the average people’s. But it still had a far cry from the current magnificent manor.
"Yes, the business of Su Group has been related to the Si Group in recent years." Rodney's meaning is simple and clear, that is, Su's now is assisted by Brian.
"Oh." Florence responds briefly, and there is some sourness in her tone that she does not perceive.
A row of black limousines slowly stops in front of the manor.Brian gently reaches out and Tabitha takes his hand and gets off. Florence takes a glance at it and thanks Rodney,then she goes straight to Brian.
“Where is Nelson?”Florence anxiously asks Brian. Her mind is always on her baby.
"What’s the hurry,I will let you see." Seeing her anxious appearance, Brian deliberately raises his mouth slightly. A hint of haze flashes across his face.
"Let's go." Florence does not have much more scruple. She grabs his arm and turns to go inside.
However, as soon as she turns around, no matter how much strength she uses, the power behind her easily turns her over.He looks at her with his black eyes stunned. Brian’s voice is low and tyrannical, "I said that more haste leads to less speed. You will see Nelson when you are allowed to. Now you have something more important to do."

"..."Florence suddenly become nervous. She realizes that things will never be so simple.
"Tabitha, let's go to see your sister." Brian grabs her hand and walks into the manor.
Florence trots behind him. Her petite face looks blank. She can’t believe her ears.Is Antonia still alive?
Florence is taken to a beautifully carved yellow door puzzled, and the smell of incense is floating in the air.
"Go in,it has been four years.You should give her an apology."
Tabitha opens the door and pushes Florence in. Her voice is full of grievance.
Brian stands there, seeing her face turns pale at the moment of turning. Her brows are narrowed,and her thin lips are tightly closed,and says nothing.
She is responsible for Antonia’s death. All this is what she deserves. There is no need to feel sorry for her.
Brian secretly comforts himself in mind and turns away.
Tabitha simply says something to the servants and leaves with Brian.
Florence stands at the door, and she cannot move. She looks at the room in front of her. Her heart is haunted by a sense of fear .
"Snapped!"
The door behind her is tightly closed, and the sole light is confiscated. Her whole body is completely buried in darkness.
She stretches out her trembling hands and tries to stand against the wall, but in vain. She falls heavily on the ground.
"Hiss--"
Florence suddenly frowns nervously, and the sweat trickles down her forehead.
The night of Nelson’s birth was also very dark. In a small room, she was lying on the bed isolated. No one was around. Except for herself, there was only agitated yellings from doctors.
She couldn’t feel anything warm until Nelson was born. It’s his cry that gave her a comfort in the dark room.
After that, Florence had to turn on the lights every night to sleep. She tried to elude any dark place.
In fact, she is not so much afraid of darkness as her fear caused by her loneliness.
At this moment, the dark room makes her frightened again
"Nelson, Nelson..." Florence is on the ground with eyes closed. Her mouth keeps shouting the name of Nelson. After a long time, there is only her miserable voice.
"This woman..."
Outside the room, Brian stares at the video in the tablet seriously. The closed-circuit monitor shoots her figure very clearly.Looking at Florence lying on the ground without any move, Brian's face becomes more gloomy.
"Rodney, hand this video to Old Zhou." Brian says sharply, and he is curious about why this woman has such behavior in the dark.
"Yes." Rodney nods.
Florence has been on the ground for a while. She stands up difficultly leaning against the wall through the gleamy green sign of the safety exit. She dare neither walk nor shout, just looking at the surroundings with fear.
"Who is it!"
Suddenly a flash of red light appears and shoots a table straight.The surroundings are slowly illuminated.
Florence slowly takes her hands off and moves forward. Her body is still shaking; her hands are clenched tightly, and her mouth is muttering “Don’t be afraid. You can do that.”.
When she walks up, she finds there is a photo of Antonia under the red light on the table. In the black-and-white photo,her eyes smile like a crescent moon. Her dark eyes are really scared under the red light.
"..."
Florence suddenly understands what they meant.She looks helplessly at Antonia’s photo and sneers. You Go,but Leaving Nelson behind.
