Chapter 667: Farewell


    Florence felt a sense of guilt. She didn’t want to hide anything from Ernest. She also wanted to tell him


    everything. However, she didn’t feel it proper to tell him about the contraceptive pills.


    She walked to him, reached out to wrap her arms around Ernest’s waist, and pressed her face on his


    chest.


    She muffled, “It’s just a trifle. I won’t hide anything else from you.”


    She would try her best to be honest with him.


    Ernest reached out to rub her hair, looking quite affectionate and tender.


    He said in a deep, seductive, and charming tone, “Okay.”


    He cast a casual nce at Florence’s backpack. Then he moved his gaze.


    Everyone should have secrets.


    He was curious about Florence’s, but he would wait for her to tell him actively.


    Once they finished packing, the servants delivered the suitcases to their vehicles. Florence and Ernest


    were about to leave.


    Florence put on her backpack and walked to the vehicle.


    Alexander was standing aside, frowning at her worriedly.


    He reminded her in a deep tone, “Flory, you must be careful on the way. When facing life and death,


    anything else can be temporarily abandoned. Understand?”


    “I see.”


    Florence nodded. She couldn’t help but nce around.


    Her parents were always together, but right then, only Alexander showed up. Victoria didn’t.


    It seemed that she didn’t n to see Florence off.


    Alexander hesitated for a moment. He said with a smile, “Your mother is too reluctant to see you off.”


    That was why she didn’t show up.


    Besides this reason, probably Victoria didn’t agree with Florence to go with Ernest.


    Florence felt a bit upset. She didn’t know clearly how she would face Victoria on this matter.


    “Dad, please tell Mom -- I will definitelye back safe and sound.”


    “Okay. We’ll wait for you toe back.”

    Alexander looked at Florence reluctantly. He added, “Make sure to be with Stanford and Ernest all the


    time. You must be with them and don’t be alone.”


    Alexander wasn’t talkative, but today he kept nagging.


    Florence understood that it was because he worried about her.


    She felt a bit uneasy. She listened to her father obediently, nodding in agreement.


    After bidding her father farewell, Florence turned around to look at rence and Phoebe who were


    standing aside.


    rence looked at her with aplicated expression, and Florence couldn’t tell what he was thinking.


    Phoebe’s eyes were reddish, full of worry and reluctance. However, she tried her best to hold back her


    tears.


    Florence couldn’t help sighing.


    If it were in the past, Phoebe would have pounced at her and burst into tears.


    After experiencing so many things, she had be maturer and learned to suppress her emotion.


    Florence felt sorry for her because of her changes.


    Phoebe used to be a worry-free girl from a rich family, and she shouldn’t have experienced those


    things.


    Florence pressed her lips, walked to Phoebe, reached out, and hugged her.


    She said jokingly, “Wait for me in City N obediently. After my things are done, I’ll go back to visit you.


    You must take me to drink, hang out in clubs, and sing karaoke. You can’t refuse!”


    “Florence, you sticky girl! You haven’t left yet but you’ve already had a n to rob me!”


    Phoebe knocked on Florence''s back gently. Her voice was a bit low between sobs.


    “That’s a deal then. You muste back safe and sound. I’ll hang out with you. We won’t go home


    until the daybreak!”


    “All right!” Florence nodded solemnly.


    She used to be in this way with Phoebe. No matter if they were happy or sad, they would hang out.


    However, after leaving City N, they didn’t have such chances at all.


    They both had experienced quite a lot of things. They couldn’t remain as innocent and worry-free as


    they used to be.


    However, Florence believed that after all the difficulties were ovee, there would be a happy and


    peaceful life waiting for them ahead.


    That must be true for both Phoebe and her.


    They had talked for a long while before releasing each other. Phoebe’s eyes were quite reddened,


    almost burst into tears.


    After the departure today, she didn’t know when she would see Florence again.


    She wasn’t certain if Florence coulde back safely.


    Hence, all she could do was to wait for Florence with all her best wishes.


    After bidding Phoebe farewell, Florence raised her head and looked over at rence, who was next to


    them.


    When their eyes met, rence was taken aback a bit. A deep andplicated light shed through


    his eyes.


    It vanished pretty soon.


    Then, he put on a yful smile and opened his arms.


    “Shall I have a farewell hug as well?”


    Not far from them, Ernest was standing there and staring daggers at rence dangerously as if he


    would skin rence alive.


    The temperature around them seemed to have dropped as well.


    Florence’s mouth corners twitched. She felt quite speechless. rence was so good at pissing off


    Ernest. She wondered if he wanted to be beaten up by Ernest again so he could continue staying on


    the bed.


    “No way. In giving or receiving anything, a man should not touch the hand of a woman,” Florence


    refused half-jokingly.


    She swept on his body uneasily.


    With a frown, she reminded him, “You haven’tpletely recovered yet. After going back to City N, you


    need to be taken good care of. Otherwise, you might have sequ and scars left. By the way, before


    recovering, you shouldn’t smoke or drink. You’d better eat light dishes.”


    rence looked at Florence yfully.


    With a smile, he said jokingly, “You are nagging like an old woman. Aren’t you afraid Ernest would


    disdain you for this?”


    Florence choked up, feeling so annoyed.


    rence was truly a helplessly sharp-tongued man. She was reminding him out of kindness, but he


    made fun of her.


    He had gone too far.


    Florence snorted, directly turned around, and walked away.


    She wasn’t in the mood to talk to him anymore to avoid being pissed.


    rence looked at her receding figure, and his smile suddenly became a bit stiffened. His eyes were


    full of unconcealed bitterness and love.


    After parting this time, he wondered when they would meet again.


    Probably not for the whole life.


    He felt extremely worried, but he couldn’t vent it at all.


    “Don’t be greedy at someone who doesn’t belong to you. Keep your heart guarded.”


    Ernest’s voice ran out from a certain distance.


    His voice was quite low, so only rence had heard it.


    It was a piece of advice as well as a warning.


    rence was startled for a moment. Then he was in a panic, wondering if Ernest had seen through his


    mind.


    Meeting Ernest’s sharp and threatening gaze, while thinking about his words, rence suddenly


    calmed down. He put on a helpless and bitter smile.


    His secret crush that he didn’t dare to confess and had been hiding carefully was seen by Ernest with a


    single glimpse.


    Probably Ernest had a sharp eye, or probably he was wayme to pretend.


    However, he agreed with what Ernest said.


    He shouldn’t be greedy for someone that didn’t belong to him. Otherwise, he would hurt her as well as


    himself.


    Since he knew it, he shouldn’t keep his crush.


    However...


    He just wished to see Florence off and bid her farewell.


    Florence didn’t stay much longer. Waving at others, she sat in the car.


    No matter Alexander, Phoebe, or rence, they were all people that Florence cared about. Hence, the


    farewell was a sad thing for her.


    After she left here, it would take a long time, and she couldn’te back or meet them during the


    period.


    She decided to leave fast so that she wouldn’t be so upset.
