The Wanted Wife: Daddy, Mommy Escapes again!

Chapter 56: Pampering

Proofread by Peter Gong

This problem is actually a bit tough for her, but it is different than before, and she does not escape. Sometimes, when people hide something in their hearts for long enough, they will want someone to talk to. She has no friends and has to keep many things to herself. Her real thought is about to come to her lips, fortunately, she has controlled her emotion in time. She almost lets them out. “I was just asking.” Florence chuckles. Rodney sighs inwardly, but he can do nothing for their various disputes.

One of them is his boss, and the other one, Florence even may not treat him as a friend. He realizes that he has exceeded the boundary, so he keeps silent. Nelson still has a high fever in the evening. Florence is so worried that she wants to send him to the hospital at once. Fortunately, Brian asks Charles Song to come to her aid. He is the family doctor of Si’s Family. When the old man was not in good condition, Charles almost lived in this family. So the friendship between them is natural, and he is also a special member in Si’s Family. He also watches Florence and Brian grow up, and knows clear about their disputes.

After Nelson take the medicine, his fever subsides as expected. She then sighs with relief. Seeing his face comes back to norm, she leaves the room and gets another towel for him. “Is he your child with Brian?” Charles slowly sits down, looks at the child on the bed and says significantly. Florence doesn’t know how to respond to him for a while. In Charles’ opinion, her silence is a kind of tacit admission. “You two used to be so intimate, how excellent! When I was abroad, I couldn’t come back in time to see the old man, although he had an accident…”

“You are the one he cared about most during his lifetime. However, no one could find you when I came back. Where have you been these years?” She lowers her head, “Uncle Song, I’m sorry. I have troubles.” She doesn’t want to mention anything about the past. Once those dark days in her heart are touched, she will put herself on guard. She doesn’t like the “Florence Li” in that period of time, just like a hedgehog without thorns. What is ridiculous is she even wanted to protect herself, but finally found that she could do nothing. During those days when she tried to elude the man, she thought of killing herself countless times.

She might have died without Nelson. Charles stares at her for a long while, with kind of pity in his heart. Now she is no longer the sunny girl as she used to. Although her smile seems still so familiar, there are more lowliness and caution in her eyes. He watches Florence grow up. She used to be gentle, but her confidence is gone now. With a helpless sigh, he says, “Florence, I just hope I can make up for the mistakes I made in the past.”

The heavy words makes her suddenly look up. She is a little flurried, “Uncle Song, that is not what I mean. In fact, it’s just causality. If I didn’t have to fall in love with a man I could never marry, there would not be other things, but after all what had happened is true, it is just destiny. ” “What are you going to do now? Do you still love Brian as before? ” It makes her fail to answer the question. As usual, her fingers have overlapped furtively. It seems that once she gets entangled with Brian, she has nowhere to hide.

Florence sits beside the bed and stares at Nelson. She strokes his delicate face by her fair fingers and a smile slowly blooms on her lips. “It is not important anymore.” Obviously, Charles doesn’t intend to end this topic, because something about Florence has always been a knot in his heart. He was the old man’s only friend that they could talk heart-to-heart to each other, so the friendship between the two men is very deep. It was a pity that he could not come back when the old man died. However, he knows that her future is his only wish. In the last phone call that the old man made to him before his death, there was also something related to her. The old man wanted him to help Florence. Because at that time, Brian would get her in trouble. Charles Song then came back in a hurry, but he still missed her. That’s why later people didn’t know whether she was still alive.

Now she has come back, and it is sudden. What Charles hopes to know most is her and Brian’s circumstances, anyway, whether they are still loving each other or not. Is it possible? “Florence, I watch you grow up. I know your character. Can you tell me the truth? If you were given another chance to manage your life, would you go on loving Brian?” The implication is clear enough. But when Florence hears the question, she just frowns, and gives the answer in no more than two seconds. “No.” There is no hesitation, because she knows that she is not able to withstand those pains again. The man seems to be beside her, but it’s indeed a long distance. He is like a star in the sky, but how about herself?

Seeing her pale face, Charles knows that if he asks more, her old wounds will be reopened. With a gentle smile, he turns to talk about Nelson. Both of them don’t notice Brian is standing at the door. Just now, he heard all their words. Then as she turned around he quickly dodged to the other side of the door. Those words prick his heart like needles, and he even feels stifled for a while. She doesn’t love him any more, and she may also be disappointed and hate him. When he recollects what he did to her in those years, he even starts to hate himself. He can’t overcome it, either, how can he ask Florence to give up everything and accept him again?

Florence stays at Nelson’s bedside all night, just lying by the bed. When she wakes up the next day, the child on the bed is missing. “Honey!” She runs downstairs in a hurry. Rodney comes in with a pile of documents in his hands. Seeing she is restless, he immediately asks her what happened. “I can’t find my son!” She is really in a hurry. Rodney can’t help laughing and he glances at the garden. “Come with me.” Nelson is playing football on the ground in the garden. The little boy is giggling and running happily there. It seems that he has never had a fever. On the other side, Brian wears a casual suit, which perfectly highlights his slim figure. He shows a rare smile on his cold face. He stares at Nelson and his eyes are full of love. A man and a boy are playing happily at the moment.
