For so many years, she has never thought about seeing Brian. He lives in a northernmost city, so she moved to the south. She thought that China is so big that it would not be a big problem to avoid seeing each other again.
But it turns out that she has underestimated the extent of G.o.d"s jest.
Slowly turning around, pale-faced, she saw Brian. Four years have pa.s.sed. It seems nothing could change him, still good-looking with a glare that forbids direct view.
"Oh." He suddenly laughs, with a touch of murderous look in his dark and sharp eyes, "Florence, how difficult it is to find you."
The people in the box find it somewhat unintelligible. The guest who has just let Florence go to get the wine sees it and walks over, "Mr. Si, what"s up? You know her?"
Si Luoming stares at Florence coldly, without saying anything.
Florence stands with the wine-bottle in her tight grasp, slightly shaking. His gaze gives her a stifling despair.
Florence tries to go backwards subconsciously, only to be caught by the arm. There is no distance between Brian and her. Dumbfounded, Florence looks up into Brian"s extremely cold eyes, which are just like four years ago when he forced her to abort her child.
The accompanying great fear is like a net bondage which makes her hardly breathe. For a long time, she says with her trembling voice, "You... what do you want?"
At saying the words, she regrets. She doesn"t know why she would ask such a stupid question. In terms of physical strength and power, she is just a sheep on Brian"s block. Even if he wants her to die, it is absolutely possible and easy.
As expected, he ironically sneers and says indifferently, "Florence, you know what I mean. If it had been not my old man who intervened four years ago, you would never have had a chance to stand here and talk to me. In the past..."
A dramatic anger suddenly catches her, "Brian, enough! You are not qualified to blame me."
"Florence," He narrows his eyes, and the fingers around her arm gradually tighten, "What are you talking about?"
Looking at his aggressive eyes, Florence is somewhat guilty, but she feels more fear.
She mustn"t be entangled by him. She has to leave immediately, otherwise the existence of Nelson would inevitably be discovered, and its consequences she dares not to imagine.
In sheer despair, Florence grabs the red wine bottle and strikes Brian on his head, which has resulted in screaming of the people in the room. Staggering one or two steps, Brian subconsciously touches his head. The grip of his other hand is unconsciously weakened.
Florence takes the opportunity to break free from him, and rushes out crazily.
Brian looks at the red mixture blood and wine in his hands and gives out a freezing laugh. Four years later, the woman has become more courageous and more ferocious.
Florence does not know why she dared to do so. She only knows that she must leave here with Nelson, now!
Ruth is playing with her mobile phone, when suddenly the door of the lounge is pushed open. She sees Florence rushing in, fl.u.s.tered and ready to go out with Nelson asleep in her arms. Ruth hurriedly jumps off the chair and grabs Florence by her arm, "Florence, what happened? Where are you going in such a hurry?"
Florence does not think about where she is going yet. Looking at Nelson in her arms, she is somewhat lost, "I have to go..."
"Go?" Ruth is somewhat confused, but she notices the remaining red liquid on Florence"s face and the faint smell of blood, and she suddenly realizes something and asks with her brows knitted, "What happened? You have a conflict with the guests? Have you hurt someone?"
Florence doesn"t know how to explain to Ruth. She shakes her head and when she is about to talk, the door of the lounge is kicked open from the outside. Then some bodyguards come in. The small lounge suddenly becomes more breathless.
Ruth first reacts and frowns. She reviles: "Who are you? why are you so rude?"
Unexpectedly, the headman pays no attention to her, but looks at the pale face of Florence.
"Miss Li, Mr. Si wants to see you, please take the trouble to come with us."
Florence knows him. He is Rodney, Brian"s secretary. It was he who took her to the hospital to abort her child. History repeats itself. After all these years when she tries to escape from them, they finally come to encounter each other face to face again.
Feeling like a wet blanket thrown on her, Florence feels the coldness to the bone. She shakes her head, and backs several steps until her waist is against the table behind her, "I won"t, I don"t want to go with you!"
Nelson in her arms is finally woken up. The child opens his sleepy eyes and looks at all the vicious-looking people. Frightened, he suddenly cries out, "Mom..."
