Chapter 604: A Cunning Ernest
"Rubbish! Can''t even pick up a person at a critical time like this!"
Stanford threw a kick on Addison.
Addison clutched his calf, moaned in pain while stepping backwards, he looked at Stanford in surprise
and grief.
It wasn''t his fault that Florence refused to go.
Despite feeling unfair, he didn''t express but asked weakly, "Well, let me try then?"
Try meant no guarantee.
If Phoebe refused toe back, travelling back and forth like this wasted another day, meaning she
suffered one more day.
Stanford''s blood was boiling at this point.
He looked at the back of Ernest and Florence who were disappearing in annoyance.

"Dates before mates."
Since when did his sister turn into someone like that?
Stanford frowned. He wanted to walk away like Florence did and let Addison went to fetch her.
But he couldn''t walk away. He was worried.
Those three words kept repeating in his mind.
Addison was amazed by Stanford''s indecisive look. He had never seen him in hesitation before, he
was quick and decisive, it never took him more than three minutes for a decision.
But now…
Addison stood a few meters from Stanford, he looked at him and asked curiously. "Mr. Fraser, why
won''t you want to pick up Ms. Jenkins?"
"I need to go home and report something!" Stanford replied.
Addison doubted, he didn''t believe at all.
Stanford''s face turned dark, his anxiety shown through his eyes.
He was delighted knowing they located Phoebe and was eager to go fetch her, he wanted to make sure
she was safe and alright.
But his second reaction was, avoiding.
What he said the other day drove Phoebe away. He was the one saying that he didn''t want to see her
for the rest of his life, guessed Phoebe didn''t want to see him either now.
Phoebe might refuse toe home even if he went.
That was why he asked Florence to go, the best candidate to bring her back, but Florence… prioritized
dates before mates.
Stanford was annoyed and in dilemma.
He didn’t know how to face Phoebe if he went.
But he had no other choice now…
Although he wanted to avoid this, he was a responsible man, he promised to keep Phoebe safe, so he
couldn’t leave her alone there.
Stanford took a deep breath and strode towards the helicopter.
Addison followed immediately. He hesitated and asked, “Mr. Fraser, where are we heading to?”
Stanford boarded the helicopter, stared only in one direction and uttered, “Seaside City.”
He was worried still.
Addison let out a sigh of relief seeing Stanford had finally decided to go. He then ordered the captain,
“Depart now to Seaside City.”
The rotor des rotated, the helicopter was lifted from the ground and flew at high speed.
Florence and Ernest who was not far away stood on the ground and looked up at the helicopter.
Florence’s frown loosened and she was finally at ease.
Stanford had finally decided to go for Phoebe.
It was a good bet listening to Ernest.
Stanford picking up Phoebe was a good chance for them to settle their misunderstanding.
Phoebe would feel better seeing Stanford went to pick her up himself.
Florence looked at Ernest and asked. “It seems like you could predict every step of my brother’s.”
Ernest lifted his lips and said casually, “Your brother is too weak in this sense.”
He was a smart man, but his age when it came to a romantic rtionship was only a teenager.
Aplete white paper. One could easily saw through what he was thinking, dilemma and fear.
Florence was a little startled hearing Ernestment about her brother, she immediately looked
around to ensure no one heard him.
Stanford would be angry if he found out and would never agree on their rtionship.
Florence approached Ernest and whispered, “Do you think Phoebe will forgive my brother then?”
If they came back in good term or as a couple, Florence would be delighted.
Ernest’s smile widened, he looked mysterious.
“You will know when they are back.”
“Not telling? Or you don’t know?”
Florence smiled and teased Ernest.
Ernest squirted his eyes and pulled her into his arms suddenly.
His face was closed to hers and she felt his warm breath on her cheeks while he spoke.
“I’m not interested or patient in other people’s romantic rtionship, my only focus is you.”
He looked at her deeply, in a way of telling her that she was the only one he saw in the entire world.
Florence’s pulse was racing uncontrobly.
She stuttered while blushing. “Well, why did you put so much effort into matching Phoebe and my
brother?”
“You.” Ernest replied instantly.
He smiled and was so bold. “Your brother will only see me from the angle of benefits since he doesn’t
understand about loving rtionship. Judging from the benefits, even if be the master of the
Turner family or I was willing to die for you, but they will still weigh in the facts that I deceived and used
you, and pretending to be rence, and…”
Ernest’s sight darkened and continued, “Those are the thorns in his heart, he might treat me with
respect but will never ept me as his brother-inw.”
Florence looked at Ernest stunned, “So you want my brother to be with Phoebe?”
“Yes.” Ernest nodded. “Once Stanford fell in love, then only he realized love is powerful enough to
ovee profit and loss, in the end, chose to forgive Phoebe’s deception.
And if he does that, he has no right to stand between me and you.”
Empathy towards others. Not only Stanford won’t be able to object, but also understood Ernest''s
actions.
Florence dazed at Ernest, there was nothing but amazement.
That was why Ernest was so eager in locating Phoebe, and the first thing he did was telling Stanford
when he found her; and stopping her from fetching Phoebe, insisting Stanford do
so.
