《The Wanted Wife: Daddy, Mommy Escapes Again!》C24. The Trustee Doesn’t Deserve
Advertisement
Florence lies on the bed, and a pair of bright black eyes are glimmering with gentleness. Nelson is sleeping sound in her arms.
Since she met Brian at the nightclub, it is the first time she has fallen asleep with her little boy, and her mood has become more pleasant, enjoying the rare happiness of this moment.
"Flor, you have changed a lot.The glory of the mother's love radiates from your body." Baron walks in with a tray and jokes.
"All girls will be like me when they become mothers." Florence gently lifts the quilt in front of her to Nelson's body, and her eyes are gentle,watery and less reluctant.
"If the old man is still alive, he will be very happy to see such a lovely boy." Baron smiles but not from the bottom of his eyes, and his voice is calm, in which there is nothing unusual.
"The old man..." Florence mutters slightly, and looks downcast. Sometimes, when she hears someone mentioning the old man, she really doesn't know whether she should love him or hate.
She is also very helpless to the old man, and he loves her very much. But it is the wrong way he protected her that has led to a series of things that happened later.
"Hey."
She sighs faintly, takes the water glass at hand and drinks. Her thoughts are mixed with many things immediately.
"Don't talk about the old man, your condition is still not good.It is
my fault to disturb you." Baron pretends to care her, walks over and pulls
the chair aside. He looks up at her seriously, says with a magnetic
voice, "you tell me what happened. Why did you suddenly come back and make
it so embarrassing?"
Florence’s thoughts are pulled back in an instant. She pauses, looks down at the water glass dully, and smiles helplessly. Her thin lips are slightly raised. “My intention is not to come back. I thought that as long as I don’t encounter Brian, my son and I would be safe. But we are still being teased by fate."

Her smile is bitter, which makes one feel a little bit painful.
"Don't worry, you and Nelson will be safe here." Baron pats her shoulder gently and says warmly.
Florence nods and suddenly thinks of something. She stares at Baron with back-and-white eyes. Her sound is mixed with a little anxiety, "Even so, I still want to beg you to do something for me."
Baron is curious and says quickly, "You say, I will do that if I can."
"I beg you to contact a person for me, and both you and I know Brian is very shrewd. I am afraid that this place will not be safe for too long." Florence points out sharply.
The power of Baron has penetrated many parties, and it is easy for him
to find someone if he wants.
“Austin?” Baron is not foolish. He knows that the only one who can do something for her now is Austin.
Originally, this matter has nothing to do with him, but now he has to pay attention to it once Austin is involved in. Si family knows that Austin has the will of his father. His whereabouts are also very uncertain,so it is hard to find him as usual.
"Yes, that is the place I told you yesterday."
Florence is still innocent, and after telling this to Baron, she also emphasizes the important points of finding Austin.
Suddenly, the phone placed on the bedside table bursts into vibration.
Afraid to wake up Nelson, Florence quickly picks it up. When she see that the caller ID is Brian, her hand shakes and the phone falls straight on the ground.
He must have known that she took the child away. They don't have much
time.
"Baron,it is too late. You have to tell Austin now, Brian has already known." Florence subconsciously rubs her hands back and forth to remit her tension.

She is hesitating as to whether she should answer it or not.
After Baron walks out of the room, she thinks about it, and finally puts the phone aside. No matter whether she answers it or not, there is only one result.It is also good to hold Nelson in her arms even for a while.
The phone on the bedside table keeps vibrating, and there is no sign that it will stop.
The breeze runs in from the window, blowing the face of Florence. She looks at Nelson in her arms with her brows narrowed.
Her heart is full of fear and unwillingness.
Fearing Brian's means, she is not resigned to let her be at his mercy.
.....
On the other side, in the study room downstairs.
"Mr.Si, is it right now to go to the No.13, Haibin Road that Miss Li said?" The assistant stands aside and asks.
Baron hears the words, and turns from the chair in front of the desk with a handsome face covered with haze at this time. His soft appearance has already faded, and the bottom of his eyes looks scarlet. "It is definite, but the person I want to contact is Brian."
"Brian? Hmmm..." The assistant aside is obviously confused.
“This woman wants Austin Zhou to save her. If I inform Brian in advance, the plan will be lost. Her shares are the most important. As for others, I have no interest in at all."
Si Hanming sits there with his hands crossed in front of his eyes, and his cheeky face is full of insidiousness.
From the moment Florence put the child in his car, she has already been the chip of Baron.
"Master, then I am going to contact Brian now." The assistant just turns around butis reproached by Si Hanming.
"I will deal with it in person. You go to the No.13 Haibin Road to keep a close eye on that person,and investigate the things in his hand as soon as possible." Baron's tone is full of coldness.
"Yes." The assistant nods and quits.
Baron gets up and stands in front of the huge bright floor-to-ceiling windows. The glass reflects a handsome face, but his brows are locked and his black eyes are tightened, giving people a sense of distance.
Time passes by little by little.
Florence doesn't know when she fell asleep, and there seems to be a small hand on her cheeks that moves back and forth, which is so soft that she wants to hold it dearly.
"Nel, you wake up Mom again."
Florence turns slowly and opens her eyes and says with a smile.
"Mom, my belly has been making noise." Nelson says with a finger pointing at his stomach.
He seems to be hungry.
Florence sits up with her teeth gritted and slowly turns with her right leg raised. Her voice is dumb. "Mom is now giving a cooking. You stay here, don't make trouble to your uncle Baron,Okay ?"
Nelson looks around the room with big eyes and says, “Mom, I am with you, I don’t want to be alone.”
"..."
Florence’s hands with which she is putting on her shoes shake suddenly and her eyes are soaked with tears in an instant. A strong sense of guilt arises from the inside.
During this time,it is her negligence as a mother that let him endure so much.
The child should have been cared for with love originally, and she cannot
