The doctor uses pliers to clamp out the glass debris in her calves little by little. It even gives Brian the willies, making his face look gloomy. The doctor sees his face inadvertently, only complaining about it furtively. He says to Florence, “I will do it gently, hang in there.” No matter how gentle his movements are, it is still stinging. Florence bites her teeth tightly, and thin sweats ooze out on her forehead. Just now, she paid her attention to Nelson, so she didn’t know the pain. Now she feels it and almost faints because of the pain. Brian walks over to her, using his hand to hold her tightly. His voice is placid, “If it hurts,hold my hand.”

Florence will show her weakness to something about Nelson, in fact, she is very stubborn. She never hopes to show her white feather in front of anyone, especially Brian. She is so painful that she cannot speak anything. She just shakes her head. The pliers in the doctor’s hand are suddenly embedded in her wound. She can’t help crying out in a low voice and her hand grabs Brain’s hand with all her strength. Brian is also frowned by the sudden pain, but he does not make any noise. The doctor whispers, “Miss, actually, we should have used anesthetics at the beginning. After all you’re in such a pain now!”

Hearing this, Brian glares at the doctor, and a low-pitched voice booms out from his throat, “What did you say?” Seeing his frightening face, the doctor has a bad premonition. However, he has to toughen his scalp to answer honestly with hesitation in his voice, “This young lady thinks it’s too expensive to take anesthetics, so she insists on not taking it.” After saying that, he feels a bit cold in his back. Florence is a little embarrassed. She doesn’t want to show her predicament in front of him, so she lowers her head and says weakly, “Actually it’s all right. It’ll be fine after a while. We don’t need to spend money. ”

Brian’s eyes become pale, and he suddenly remembers that she gave birth to a child in the black clinic in order to elude him, and the pain at that time must have been thousands of times more than the pain now. He feels a great pang of pain at the moment, and he even cannot imagine how she survived. After dressing the wound, she goes back to the ward at once. Nelson finally wakes up. The boy is reasonable and has a bright smile on his face, “Mum, I’m OK. Don’t worry about me. It is not painful at all.” Florence, who wants to control her emotions, can’t hold back for a while, and her tears burst out from her eyes uncontrollably. She lies on the bed, holding her son, pressing her face to his, and her voice is hoarse. “Honey, I’m sorry. I should take the blame, I didn’t take good care of you… I am sorry for your torment and pain.”

Rodney has just arrived. Seeing this, he also feels a bit sore. At the same time, he notices Brian’s face, which seems to be really guilty. Brian secretly asks Rodney to settle all the expenses and transfer Nelson to a VIP ward. Florence is unwilling but has to accept it. “I’ll replace a great nurse to take care of Nelson. Don’t worry.” “Thank you.” Seeing her obedience, Brian feels ultimately uncomfortable. Nelson is their own child, but what he has done is far inferior to what a father should do for his kid. However, only in such a way, she would also like to thank him.

A strange emotion fills Brian’s heart, and he is a little upset. “You two must move to my house and live there for a while. The doctor says he is malnourished. If you still look after him in your own way, he will be hurt but not be loved.” “Malnutrition?” Florence is kind of shocked. Nelson is only three years old. She has tried to give him the best of everything, how could it be like this now? Seeing her solemn face, Brian also realizes that his words are too serious. He wants to say something, but she opens her mouth before him, “Mr. Si, you are going to marry someone else, so I don’t think there’s any relationship between us now. I will pay back for the operation cost as soon as possible, and thank you for other things.”

Brian grabs her hand, gnashes his teeth and calls her name, “Do you have to torture me like this? Florence Li?” Hearing this, she looks at him in confusion. “Torture?” Then her frown quickly spreads out. She purses her lips, saying with amusement, “How dare I torture President Si? It is you who always want to torture me, isn’t it? You hope to see me suffer pain, don’t you? ” These words make him speechless. In business, he can be responsible for any decision and take the consequences. However, he has misunderstood Florence for so many years. Antonia’s death has nothing to do with her, even the jade pendant was found by her. As a result, Antonia is still alive, and only that jade pendant is broken.

It is hard for them to be on good terms again as before. The debts between them are almost impossible for Brian to compensate for. Florence at first thinks he will be furious because of her words, instead, he only stares at her calmly and his eyes are full of complexity. Brian slowly releases her hand, turning back to her, “you can have a good rest, later I will ask Rodney to pick you up.” In order to elude the confrontation or her resistance, Brian leaves directly.

Rodney doesn’t follow him. He smiles at her and hands her a card, “Miss Li, take the card.” She is about to push it away immediately, but he pushes back her hand and just puts the card in her hand. Then he leaves with nodding gently. The ward is in silence, and Florence knows that it’s Brian’s command. In fact, she found changes in Brian’s eyes just now, but she doesn’t know why it would be so hard to thank him, and it’s not her style.

The tree is still while the wind blows. In the afternoon, a group of people rush into the ward. Before Florence asks, a woman cries out loud here and ask Florence for her husband’s life. Florence still does not figure out what’s going on, but at the moment the rest of the men and women have surrounded her, and the medical staff who come here are pushed out. “How could my husband have died if he hadn’t protected you? Why are you two still alive!” Florence suddenly realizes that this woman is the driver’s wife. She can understand her mood, so when faced with complaints, she just keeps silent and doesn’t defend herself.
