《The Wanted Wife: Daddy, Mommy Escapes Again!》C34. Query again
Advertisement
It rains heavier and heavier outside the window. The rain comes crashing down the window, drowning the sound in the clinic.
Doctor Tian and the nurse stand aside. They take a peek at the woman in front of them, and it seems that the dialogue between the president and her is unusual, which is unlike the dialogue between the boss and a female employee. Who on earth is this woman?
Li's dodging eyes are caught by Brian. He knows everything clearly. He stands in front of the huge bright french sash with his hands in the pockets, looking at the heavy traffic downstairs. He remains silent with a cold face.
The more Florence Li attempts to hide something, the more Brian wants to know why she helped Tabitha to conceal everything.
Brian has already asked Rodney to search privately what happened that night, and just now he watched that night’s surveillance video.
"It seems that the old man didn't teach you anything else, but he taught you how to tell lies." Brian turns and stares at her. He takes his hands out of the pockets. His face looks cold.
Rodney, who stands beside, is quick-witted, and he secretly signals doctors and nurses to leave.
The doctors and nurses bow their heads and hurry out.
"I didn't lie. Su’s family didn't hurt me that night."
Florence Li insists.
"Did those people force you to take the drug?" Brian turns around and looks at her contemptuously, sarcastically asking, "How can you explain this ankle injury?"
"The injury... It has nothing to do with Su's family, and it was caused by my own careless tumble. "
Li looks down at her ankle and falters.
Tabitha's words still reverberate in her ears. She has to keep it in mind.
"Did Su’s family chase you that night?" Brian raises his voice decibel and asks her again.

Hearing that, Li’s eyes begin to become erratic and her body shakes. She sits there and thinks for a moment, slowly opening her mouth, "No."
Brian frowns, looking at the woman in bed. His eyes are full of inexorability, "Give that to me."
He cannot endure the mendacious woman in front of his eyes any longer.
He asks Rodney to bring something and reaches out his hand.
Seeing this, Rodney quickly puts a document pouch in his hand and steps a few steps back.
"Look, is this you? Or is there another woman in the world that looks exactly like you?" Brian takes out the pictures from the document pouch, throws them on her bed, and stands there with his hands around his chest, looking at her.
Li picks up the pictures on the bed. Her face suddenly becomes blue and she covers her thin lips with her hand.
Her lie is debunked, and she even doesn't know how to reply. She just sits there, looking at the pictures, which show how she fell down in front of Tabitha's car that night. In the pictures she looked so embarrassed, her hair scattered all over her face and her clothes were covered with mud.
"What else do you want to explain now?" Brian stands there in a commanding manner, as if interrogating her.
"Say what? Why are you questioning me like this? Shouldn't you be happy that Su’s family did this? "
Florence Li arranges the photos one by one slowly, and says coldly. What is revealed in her eyes is a kind of darkness that has never existed. It seems that her whole being has been exhausted by something. Her voice becomes weak, as if she lacked the ability to tell her sadness and loss.
"Why am I happy? If Tabitha did do this, how could I explain to Antonia?" Brian glares at her, his eyes suggesting disgust and boredom.

"Now you can relax, and Tabitha didn’t make it as she expected. Besides, I wasn’t hurt." Li looks up and hands the photos to him, her eyes looking dim.
Brian takes the pictures with one hand. His face turns gloomy and says coldly, "I don't want Tabitha to be imprisoned because of you."
Hearing this, Li says lightly, "You can be at ease because Tabitha will not be that stupid."
Antonia's death makes him feel guilty, therefore, Brian spoils Tabitha more.
"Now that you have investigated it clearly, why did you ask me again?" Florence Li says, and the pain under her foot makes her frown tightly when she stands up. "If Tabitha made it that night, yo must be very happy."
"..."
Brian stands there while looking down at Li, who is kneading her ankle on the bed. He looks very gloomy at the moment.
"Take my life for Antonia's, and everything will come to an end!"
Florence Li pulls back her pillow, leans back and looks up slowly at Brian. Her eyes are dim, and a few tears linger in her eyes.
"Li , your life is not worth exchanging for the one who I care about most!"
All of a sudden, Brian holds her hand tightly, and his cold but handsome face approaches her bit by bit, with his august eyes.
“...”
Li's ankle is already in much pain, and her wrist is tightly clenched by him at the moment. The double pain makes her close her eyes and bite her teeth.
"If I want to take your life for Antonia, would you be still alive?" Brian stares at her and continues, "what I want is that you have to live in guilt throughout your life and repent forever for what you have done!"
Guilt and repentance...
Florence Li's tears have been lingering in her eyes for a long while, but when she hears this, the tears fail her and flow down her face and neck!
How much he loves Antonia, and how much he hates Florence.
It is more painful for one to live in guilt and repentance all his/her life than to die.
It is ridiculous that the man whom she used to love heart and soul wants her to live in this living hell!
Looking at his clear face with empty eyes, she cannot prevent her tears from flowing down from the corners of her eyes constantly.
Grievance, disappointment, sadness, pain, and despair...All these are contained in her eyes and then released with her tears.
"If I could, I would rather I didn't know you."
For long, Florence Li slightly opens her thin lips, saying in a hoarse voice, which implies a kind of completely emotional death.
"..."
Hearing that, Brian’s black eyes tighten slightly. He feels his heart has been thumped by someone. However, the pain vanishes quickly, and soon his reason
She said she would rather not know him.
How could he hope to know her?
"Florence Li, I don't want to know you, do I? If you had not appeared, Antonia would not have died!" Brian pulls her forward and looks at her slightly swollen eyes. There is no emotional change on his face at all.
