Chapter 87 His Warning
Seraphina, the fourth Miss of the Friedan family, went missing.
Ervin’s words were both a reminder and a warning.
udia was not only his ex-wife but also a member of the Friedan family,
“I knew she was Seraphina, but it seems like you all didn’t treat her as family,” Edmond said in a low,
slow tone, seemingly casual but hitting the nail on the head.
Ervin squinted his eyes and remembered his younger brother, Derrick
He restrained his smile, and his voice suddenly became colder and deeper: “I don’t care about anyone
else, as long as I’m here, she will never be mistreated.”
“Mr. Lamont, I asked you back when we were at the hospital, and you had already given up at that
time.”
“You have a bad memory, and I don’t mind reminding you again. It was you who gave up on her first!”
Edmond’s pitch-ck pupils contracted suddenly, resembling a deep
Vortex.
He slowly lowered his eyes, his Adam’s apple moved, and in his h oa rse voice, it seemed like a fierce
beast was imprisoned, saying, “I regret it.”
Ervin was taken aback.
Regretted?
In his impression, Edmond was always a person with a strong self- esteem, whether in the past or now,
otherwise he wouldn’t have ended up in such a situation with his sister.
But now I regret this, could it be that I made a mistake?
Ervin smiled and said helplessly, “It’s not that I don’t want to let you see her, it’s that she doesn’t want
to see you.”
Edmond nodded, and just when Ervin thought he had given up, Edmond by passed him and strode
toward the gate,
Ervin didn’t react for a moment.
“Hello… Edmond!” Ervin eximed anxiously. Just then, udia and he collided head-on.
There was also a man standing beside udia.
The man was wearing a ck sweater with casual pants, and a long coat covered his knees. He was
also wearing a painter’s hat, which was both casual and artistic.
When Horace saw Edmond, a faint smile appeared on his face. “Edmond, long time no see.
Thest time he saw Edmond was at the national mathpetition, where he lost to Edmond and
came in second ce.
Edmond was supposed to represent Adron in thepetition, but he gave up for some unknown
reason.
This matter left a deep impression on Horace.
Losing to a y boy is his shame.
Later, it was said that Edmond changed his character after taking over
the Lamont Group. However, his true attention to Edmond began when his rtionship with udia
was exposed.
Edmond nced at him and didn’t respond. Instead, he said to udia, “Are you free now? I want to
talk to you about something.”
Chat, about what?
Talking about Rosalie?
udia’s heart sank, and she shook her head nkly, “I didn’t have time.”
I had time and I didn’t have time.
Rosalie was his fiancée.
He probably wouldn’t forgive her.
She never thought she would receive his forgiveness.
Edmond’s expression remained unchanged as he stared at her intently, “Are you avoiding me?”
udia: “…
“Mr. Lamont, although you are Miss Seraphina’s ex-husband, you should still be mindful of your ownN?velDrama.Org owns ? this.
status. Being persistent and annoying will only make people dislike you.” Horace’s beautiful almond-
shaped eyes narrowed into a crescent moon shape. It seemed like he couldn’t understand the warning
in Edmond’s eyes as he turned to udia and said, “Miss Seraphina, you mentioned earlier about
showing me the tourist attractions in Wyvernport. Let’s go now.”
udia nodded, without looking at Edmond, and said to Ervin, “I’m going out first, I won’t be back for
lunch.”
After saying these words, he quickly walked to the side, as if in a hurry to shake off someone, taking
fast strides.
This time, Edmond did not persistently pursue.
Ervin patted his shoulder knowingly and said, “Once some people are missed, it bes difficult to
catch up.”
Difficult to chase, but not impossible to chase.
Edmond’s pupils deepened slightly as he watched udia walk away.
No one knew what he was thinking.
After they had walked a distance, udia finally breathed a sigh of relief. She looked at Horace and
apologized, “Thank you, I’m sorry for using you just now.”
Horace waved his hand, a hint of a smile appearing on his handsome face. “This is not taking
advantage, it is me willingly helping out. I stayed overnight at the Friedan family’s ce yesterday after
drinking too much. It’s my turn to say thank you.”
udia was very impressed by Horace’s response.
The mission in Enigma mentioned Horace, although she was already in charge and could choose not
to take on any more tasks, there were still some missions she wanted to ept.
If one always stays in the position of management without going down to the grassroots level, it is easy
to lose control over the content and the grassroots.
At work, she preferred to take control.
Since there was a task to approach Horace, she took the initiative to approach him and give it a try.
“Miss Seraphinà,.. Can I call you Seraphina from now on?” Horace asked.
udia fell silent and whispered, “Call me udia.”
She was used to this name and suddenly changing it, she still couldn’t fully get used to it.
Horace nodded, “udia, did you still like him?”
When udia heard the words “udia,” she paused for a moment.
As for liking Edmond…
She lowered her eyshes and curled her lips into a slight smile, saying, “I don’t like it anymore.”
I didn’t like it anymore, I didn’t like it as much as before.
Beloved ones, are like a tree rooted in a ce, she cannot be moved, but she will never water this tree
again.
Over time, that tree would gradually wither.
udia didn’t see it, but there was a hint of surprise in Horace’s eyes after she finished saying she
didn’t like it.
He didn’t like fighting for love. If she still liked Edmond, he would withdraw.
But if she didn’t like it…
Then he had to bravely pursue.
“udia, I can…” he was about to confess, when suddenly a female voice interrupted him.
“udia.”
udia looked at the neer in astonishment and said, “Mom!”
After she finished speaking, she immediately stopped talking and nced at Cicely’s expression.
Seeing that she was not angry, a vague idea had already formed in her mind.
Did my mother-inw regain her memory?
“I have something to tell you,” Cicely said with a serious expression, smiling at Horace. “Sorry to
interrupt you, but I have something important to discuss with my daughter-inw. Can you give us
some time?”
Horace nced at udia and saw her nod. He then smiled and said, “No problem, you can chat with
udia.”
Cicely nced at Horace again and immediately recognized him.
As the heir of the Ferguson family, Horace often made headlines. Although she rarely got involved in
Vencumfield’s affairs, she also spent some time there when she was young.
Seeing Horace at this moment, it seemed like memories from the past came flooding back, and his
gaze appeared somewhat distant.
After Horace walked over, she remembered the purpose of her visit today.
“udia, my memory has been restored.”
Getting confirmation, udia smiled with relief and said, “That’s good.”
Cicely hesitated to speak and then said, “Before, when I was mean to you, ah! I was really confused in
my mind. Don’t take those things to heart…”
“It’s okay, Mom. I knew it all along,” udia always respected her mother-inw.
In the Lamont family, Edmond was her guiding light, while her mother-inw was her protective armor,
and also the rare warmth she had in these years.
She knew Cicely wouldn’te to her for no reason.
“Mom, did youe to see me this time for something?”
