《The Wanted Wife: Daddy, Mommy Escapes Again!》C38. Sadness and Indignation
Advertisement
These words seem to stab at Florence’s heart, and she feels suffocated. All the painful memories of that year rush into her mind. To retrieve the jade pendant, she had a serious fever and suffered all the pain alone in a foreign country. She thought that the jade pendant was important to Brian, so she helped him get it back even at the risk of her own life, but he gave it to another woman right away.
All the emotions of the past suddenly come to her mind. Her mood changing from grievance to anger is just an instant. Suddenly, she seizes the jade pendant from Tabitha’s hand and throws it on the ground angrily. When the jade falls to the ground, it seems that she cuts off all her thoughts of Brian, as well as abandons her memories of the past. She would no longer have any expectations of that man!
Florence's sudden behavior frightens Tabitha. The moment she looks up, she sees Brian standing behind Florence. The handsome face is now gloomy, as if a storm were coming. Even though this is her original plan, she is still frightened by his complexion. However, she responds quickly and turns her attention to Florence rapidly. She promptly moves to pick up the broken jade on the ground, and looks at her with red eyes, “Florence! Are you crazy? Do you know how important it is for Brian?! Isn’t it enough that you killed my sister, or what else do you want to do now?”
The acting is so mature that it leaves no trace of doubt. Florence looks at the debris on the ground dazedly. She takes a step back with a smile, but tears surging up out of her eyes unconsciously. She raises her hands to wipe the tears hurriedly, to hide her real emotions from others. When a person is so angry that he already loses all his intellect and thinking ability, he can say everything. She points to Tabitha, "What else do I want to do? Antonia was damned! Everyone should die! If I knew the result, I should have broken the jade pendant instead of returning to Brian ..."

"Dare say it again!" A force seizes her neck suddenly and then comes the cold voice of Brian, “Florence, you don't deserve to mention her name!” He had an idea of strangling her just now. Florence slaps his arms with her hands. At this moment, although her desire to survive is very strong, her eyes stare at him without fear.
Tabitha is stunned for a second because of Florence's last sentence that she was the person who sent the jade pendant to Antonia's dormitory that year! In a short moment, she has already thought of the consequences of Florence’ telling the truth. So she reacts quickly, watching Brian's hands pinching Florence tightly, steps forward and pretends to dissuade him, crying and letting Brian loosen his grip, "Brian, it's my mistake, I shouldn't mention my sister in front of her, otherwise, she would not be so angry and broke the jade pendant... " She wipes her tears, while secretly noticing Brian's reaction.
Sure enough, the seemingly unintentional remark increases Brian's anger even more. He tightens his grip rather than loosen it. The veins in his arm are exposed and he stares angrily at the little red face in front of him, "Antonia has already died! Why are you still so intolerant of her ?!
Florence had a chance to explain, but she is already able to predict the result. Are there any differences from five years ago? Brian will never let her go, so she just looks at him stubbornly, without any words. The monstrous anger in his eyes is not overlooked, but there is still a smile on his face. Sarcastic, sad, desperate. These three emotions are intertwined, and Florence also feels that her heart is dying bit by bit.
She can't breathe already, and her flapping hands are just like a fish that is dying on the chopping board, gradually losing its vitality. Her hands are dropping slowly, as if wandering on the verge of death. "Stop!" Austin's voice suddenly appears in the air, and he frowns and looks at the scene in front of him, and everyone can see that he is very angry.

Brian certainly does not comply with him, and his strength remains undiminished.
"Brian, if you don't let her go, she will die. I will immediately sue you for intentional homicide. This should not be the result you want, should it?" He says with a little more threat and oppression. Hearing this, Brian curls up his lips. He lets go of Florence little by little, not because he is afraid. He just wants to see what the woman is capable of, and how many men are willing to work for her.
Florence nearly died in his hands just now. She coughs violently, but her eyes are still staring at him tightly. She suddenly laughs while looking at him. All the people present, including Brian, are stunned, for her smile is a bit inexplicable.
"What are you laughing at?" The playfulness in Brian's eyes grows deeper. Florence leans on the sofa to stabilize her body. She stares at him coldly, sneering, "Brian, don't you just want the equity in my hand? In this case, I will marry you. "
Her words shock everyone. Brian is a little surprised and immediately regains his composure. He looks at her with a smirk and an unclear emotion. "Florence, since you want to play, I will play with you." Tabitha and Austin both look at him in surprise at the same time. Brian turns his hand, gets the mobile phone and dials Rodney's phone, "Prepare a wedding for me in the shortest time." While he speaks, his eyes are still staring at Florence, as if to examine her look and to wonder when she will give in.
Unexpectedly, Florence is calm from the beginning to the end and she only returns him a sneer and the firmness in her eyes. Since reuniting with her, she has constantly updated his knowledge of her and has done a lot of things that made him fly into a rage. Although knowing that it is his minefield, she still steps on it. This woman has changed a lot, good.
Florence's body is weak, and with Brian’s pinch, she has no more energy now and she even feels a little fainted, but she doesn't want to lose in momentum, so she has been trying her utmost to support herself. Fortunately, Austin notices the details and knows that she can not hold on anymore, so he insists on sending her to hospital forcibly, and Brian does not stop him. Just the viciousness in his eyes increases and a playful smile appears on his lips. He expects to see what a storm the woman is about to raise.
