BXBX NOVEL Chapter 49 - Marry Her
Proofread by Peter Gong
Florence also feels very anxious, and the person that she has been missing is the mastermind who deceives her. She watches Brian looking at Antonia sharply, as if to pierce her, and at the same time, he frowns tightly, making her eager to reach out to smooth his tightened eyebrows. Antonia suddenly cries out loudly, and she goes to grab Brian, “Brian, actually I love you, not as he said, and you will believe me, right?” She cries with a trembling voice as if she has been greatly wronged. Brian takes away her hand gently, and his face is full of disgust. He turns his eyes to watch Su family members, who are all looking at him fearfully.
Su parents suddenly kneel down in front of him on the ground. “Brian, please let us go. Anyway, you loved Antonia so much before. We know we are wrong, and we shouldn’t have lied to you … ” “What else you haven’t told me?” Their begging is interrupted indifferently by Brian. Antonia is frightened by the sharpness in his eyes, and her face suddenly turns pale. She looks at Florence beside him and knows that the things about the jade pendant could not be concealed. She musters up courage, clenching her teeth: “Actually the jade pendant was not found by me. Florence sent it to my door so that I returned it to you.” Brian, who was in peace just now, looks monstrously angry. The things that Baron said are nothing for him, but the importance of jade pendant to him is clear to Florence, and she watches the coldness in Brian’s eyes turn into a sharp knife flashing across Antonia’s face. Antonia takes a step back and looks at Brian in horror. She cries hysterically and keeps apologizing to Brian.
Seeing Brian approaching Antonia, Florence remembers her mistake that year, and she doesn’t want to repeat it. So she steps forward and pulls Antonia behind her to protect her, facing Brian’s cold eyes. “Step aside.” “What’s the use of strangling her now? I sent her to the plane and caused her death. Over the past years, I have been haunted by guilt. Do you want to repeat it now?” She tries to calm him down. Brian doesn’t know how to answer her. It turns out that from the beginning to the end, he misjudged both Antonia and Florence.
Several people are still in confrontation, and a group of people carrying cameras and microphones appears in the manor. They rush over and surround them in the center. “Mr. Si, now Miss Su is back. When are you going to have a wedding with her?” All the reporters ask this question, and there is also a feeling of aggression. Florence feels that someone pushes her, and then she is pushed out of the crowd. With a stumble, she falls to the ground, but Brian looks at her quietly through the crowd. That look puzzles her. She stands up. She looks rather anxious, hoping to do something for him but there is no way. Everyone is waiting for Brian’s answer.
Baron stands beside Brian and smiles, “Is this gift a surprise today?” “These reporters are also arranged by you.” Baron doesn’t deny it. What he just wants to do is disgusting Brian! Everyone has known that Brian loves Antonia, and now Antonia is back, so naturally they are going to get married. He just aims at making a big deal of it. That is, Brian can do nothing against Su family, but he has to marry Antonia happily.
Brian winks at Rodney, who arrives hurriedly and now is not far from him. Rodney instantly understands, but at the same time, Brian’s look is also noticed by Baron. He smiles unhurriedly, “What? Do you want to deal with me? Brian, I’m not a fool. I not only told the reporters about Antonia, but also about Florence and her son. If you make me unhappy, Florence will make headlines the next day, and everyone will know that Florence has already slept with you. Not only that, but your child will also be exposed. In this way, Florence will become the third party between you and Antonia, and Nelson will become the illegitimate child of Si family. ”
These words hit Brian’s weakest point. His face becomes cold, and the air around him seems to be frozen. When the reporters see the change in his complexion, they are still somewhat frightened, and their momentum diminishes a lot. Florence’s fingers clasp tightly, and her beautiful eyebrows tighten. All her attention is focused on Brian. “Of course, I will fulfill my promise and wait for your presence.” Speaking, he fixes his eyes on Antonia’s body, and his sharp eyes seem to be cutting her off.
Antonia suddenly becomes paralyzed, and she understands the meaning of his eyes. She knows she can’t escape this time anyway. She also knows the means of Brian very well. If he wants to make someone’s life a living hell, this person will have no ability to resist at all. But Florence is stunned. She looks at Brian dully. She never thought that after all the scams are revealed, he still wants to marry Antonia. He … Does he really love Antonia so much? The questions in her heart make her a little lost. In the confused noise, Florence takes Nelson away. Nothing is more lamentable than a dead heart. He loves Antonia so much, and she should have let him go. She shouldn’t be so stubborn. He loves Antonia so much that nothing can stop his love, which makes her feel so self-abased.
When she walks out of the manor, Florence’s tears roll down her cheeks, and she wipes away her tears hurriedly as if nothing has happened. But Nelson suddenly shakes her hand, and his small face is full of worry, “Mom, why are you crying?” Florence stiffly smiles but it’s worse than crying. She never shows Nelson her weak side, but now she can’t hold back anymore, and her tears are flowing down like a broken kite. She cannot stop her tears, which keep coming out again soon, though she keeps wiping them away. She holds Nelson in her arms and her voice trembles. “Mommy doesn’t cry, Mommy is just very happy.”
Children are all sensitive. Nelson knows that she is sad, so he comforts her with a baby-like voice, “Mommy does not look beautiful at all when you are crying, but your smile looks pretty. Mom said that if people lied, their noses would get longer. You cried just now but lied to me.” Florence is amused by him, and she feels somewhat consoled in her heart. If Antonia is the happiness pursued by Brian, why she is so sad? Hasn’t she already decided to draw a clear distinction between them? Everything is destined, and no one can escape. She believes in fate and also believes that God will not treat her unfairly. She stands up again, takes Nelson, and go forward, “Come on, Nelson. We will never look back.”
