Chapter 541: Escape
Florence bawled and whirled the knife in her hand, putting it straight on her neck. Her strength was not
little and the sharp de instantly pierced her skin. Fresh blood droplets appeared. Benjamin’s
expression changed drastically and he chastised, “Florence, what are you doing? Put that knife down!”
rence who was floating in the water was also dumbfounded and he looked at Florence with extreme
shock. He never thought that she would threaten to kill herself just to let him escape…rence had
unspeakable mixed feelings and contrary to his usual cheerful look, he looked exceptionally serious
and somber. “Florence, you don’t have to do this. Don’t hurt yourself, I won’t run away anymore, it’s fine
to stay here.” As he spoke, he was going to swim to the shore.
Yet Florence yelled assertively with her eyes red, “If you don’t want to see me die, then go! It’s not far
fromnd, hurry up and run away, and find someone to save me afterwards.” rence’s movement
stopped in the water. Although he could get help, he had no idea how long he would reach shore and
get saved. Florence obviously wanted to save him only. How could a man like him abandon her and left
by himself?
Benjamin looked gloomy and his voice was cold. “Save your energy, Florence. It’s still far from shore.
Plus, even if rence’s saved, he won’t be able to keep track of our location, and he can’t save you
even he does get help.”
“There’s always chance! Are you scared to make even such a little bet, Benjamin?” Florence sneered
and looked determined. “Instead of both of us being taken away by you, I’ll at least have some hope to
be saved if rence escapes. If you’re unwilling to release him, I won’t have reason to live anymore. I
dare you to marry a corpse!”
Benjamin looked awful. He hated rence to death and never wanted to set him free. He was going to
torture him and kill him in the end. Yet now…He pulled down his face and stared at Florence with evil
eyes, he sounded determined, “You knew I won’t dare to kill you, if you’re brave enough to kill yourself,
go ahead!”

rence’s expression changed. Benjamin knew Florence was only threatening him and he had no fear.
He actually threatened Florence in return. Florence was only an ordinary girl and putting that knife on
her neck was already her most courageous act, how would she be brave enough to cut her neck?
Florence did not expect Benjamin to counter-attack her in such a way. So he was confident that she
would not do it? Florence gritted her teeth and a cruel look shed across her face. “My life’s nothing.
After I die, you won’t get to take charge of the Turner family, and the Fraser’s won’t let you off too. You
will be doomed, Benjamin Turner. Let’s go to hell together then!”
Florence grasped the knife and waved it straight to her neck. Her skin was pierced open and blood
gushed out. It was terrifying on the eyes. rence widened his eyes in horror and his mouth was left
agape. He could not let out a voice.
Benjamin’s face was twitching vigorously. He was on the pathway and he could certainly see how
determined Florence was. She could really lose her life by doing that. That woman had gone crazy. He
did not dare to hesitate anymore and he quickly yelled, “I’ll let him go!”
Florence’s movement stopped unnaturally. The excruciating pain from her neck made her fingers
shivered uncontrobly. She was scared, but she still wanted to gamble with her life. Luckily she had
won. She did not dare to put that knife down. “Would you do as you said? Or else, I still have tons of
ways to kill myself before we get married.” She was threatening him tantly. Benjamin had not been
threatened like that after living for so many years, especially when someone threatened him with her
own life. He did not care about her life at all, what he cared were all the benefits she would bring him
when she was alive. She could not die yet.
Benjamin nodded with a gloomy look. “I’ll set him free, and I won’t send men to chase after him. But I
have to remind you, there’s still a veryrge distance away fromnd, and there’re sharks too. He could
die halfway.” Florence did not think of that and she thought their location was already not so far away
fromnd. She instantly became a little worried.
rence spoke with assertion, “I’m a lucky guy, and I can certainly make it to shore! Wait for me,
Florence, I’ll definitelye back to save you!” He was confident in his words. Florence’s face slightly
trembled yet she still made her decision after hesitating for a while.
rence would definitely be tortured by Benjamin to death if he stayed. Although his fate was unknown
if he escaped now, at least he still had some hope. That was the only thing she could do for him. She
gritted her teeth and said clearly while looking at him, “Alright, I’ll wait for you to save me here!”
“I will return!” rence sounded exceptionally serious. He had not given anyone promise until now, but
he would fulfill his promise to Florence. Without further adieu, he immediately swam to another
direction. Watching him swimming further and further away, and Benjamin did not send men to get him,
she was finally relieved. Even though she was in a harsh situation, at least rence had hopes to be
saved.
Benjamin did not look good. He was threatened and was even defeated. That was indeed the blot in his
whole life. rence, I hope you could make it to shore. After this ended, I would definitely get you and
chop you into pieces, and let you die the cruelest death to vent my hatred. Benjamin looked at Florence
with unhappy face and said coldly with contempt, “There’s one more thing that I think you’ll be
interested to know.”
Florence’s heart leapt when she saw his malicious smile and she felt greatly uneasy. As expected,
Benjamin continued, “Ernest Hawkins was caught red-handed by Stanford Fraser when he took
rence Jenkins’ mask and went to the Fraser housest night. His identity was instantly exposed at
the scene.”
Florence’s face went cadaverous at once. She had been worried and panicking of that sincest night.
That was why she kept on cutting the rope to distract herself. She knew Ernest was smart but she still
prayed secretly, hoping Ernest could notice something and reverse the situation. Yet her only hope was
gone too. Ernest was exposed! And it was even because of that stubborn guy!
Stanford would definitely not forgive Ernest, so as her parents. They would hate him to death. It would
no longer be possible for her to be with Ernest openly. Florence felt depressed and awful. Benjamin’s
mood was only lightened up a little when he saw her disappointed look. He then continued evilly, “Plus,
the Turner’s already know that Ernest has been staying with the Fraser’s as rence Jenkins. What
consequence do you think he would have afterwards?”
