Chapter 932: Twenty Four Hours
What should they do next? Florence was taken aback when she heard that, and she knew the
current situation would be difficult to deal with.
Though Theodore didn''t do anything to Ernest today, their animosity was clear, and Theodore would
never let Ernest off the hook so easily.
He was keeping Ernest safe and unharmed for the time being because he hadn''t obtained the
antidote and he was the sole heir of the Turner family, but once he had what he wanted, he would
strike and they might be killed.
"Let''s leave, Ernest, leave everything rted to the Turner family behind and stay away from them
forever, shall we?" Florence said nervously.
There was no family love between Ernest and Theodore, let alone the entire Turner family.
Everything would be different if Ernest was still the CEO of the Hawkins Group in City N; they would
be living a safe and stable life now.
In the human world, the Turner family''s existence was akin to hell.
Ernest''s eyes darkened slightly as he stroked Florence''s hair. "We can''t escape now," he said
gently.
“Why?” Florence was perplexed.
"Theodore let Stanford go because he knows if he goes against me now, it will be a lose-lose
situation for both sides. Furthermore, he could alwaysunch a second attack, pursuing Stanford
and even destroying the Fraser in the future, no matter the cost," Ernest exined.
Meaning, there was still hope for change, so Theodore freed Stanford for the time being after
weighing the pros and cons.
"If I leave and stay hidden, Theodore might not be able to find me," Ernest continued as Florence
nodded. "But without me, they can''t open the vault, so Theodore will lose his hope of increasing the
Turner family''s power. Hence, regardless of the cost, he will not let me go easily. If I''m not mistaken,
there are now guards all over the ce, making it difficult for us to leave."
After Stanford was freed, Theodore must have arranged for more guards to be stationed here at
Turner''s Mansion.
Even if they wanted to go out fully armed, it would be difficult.
Florence felt a shiver run down her spine as she listened to Ernest''s exnation.
In other words, both she and Ernest were now detained?
Ernest brushed Florence''s hair, regretting that he had failed to protect her and had put her in
danger. His eyes darkened as he reflected on this.
The next second, he smiled elegantly at Florence, saying, "It might be a good thing I stay here.
Theodore will not attack me, and I could be a spy to uncover his evil n while also assisting your
brother."
A massive storm was on its way to the Fraser''s, and this war would be the war of the century,
affecting and dragging countless powers into it.
Before the vault was opened with the ultimate fortune and information became easily essible to
Theodore, the Fraser and Turner could fight neck and neck. However, the situation has now taken a
dramatic turn to the Fraser''s disadvantage.
Using the information he obtained during this time, Theodore was already capable of destroying the
Fraser.
As the Fraser''s ability remained unchanged while the Turner''s leveled up, this was no longer a nip
and tuck battle. The Fraser was in the worst possible situation at the time.
Florence''s eyes widened as she tightened her grip on Ernest''s shirt.
"But you, too, are in danger..." She was hesitant to allow Ernest to act as a spy and assist the
Fraser. The Turner was no longer his family; it was now a ce where he could be killed at any
time.
"I am safe as long as Theodore fails to find the antidote," Ernest said softly, touching Florence''s
pale face. "More importantly, your beau is neither a victim nor a weak man, and I will never let my
guard down while I am here. Rest assured. I will make every effort to ensure our safe departure
from here at a proper time."
Florence felt better knowing Ernest had ns to leave the Turner because she knew he would only
be safe if he left this dangerous ce.
"I''ll stay with you," Florence said as she nodded and looked at him with her sparkling eyes.
Florence''s determination prevented him from sending her away quietly.
Despite the risk, she insisted on fighting alongside him. Ernest''s heart was touched by the
determined gleam in her eyes. He felt loved, and no matter where he was or what situation he was
in, as long as she was with him, he feared nothing and gave his all.
He drew her into his arms and said, "Okay," he didn''t reject her and won''t send her away because
the Fraser might be in danger as well given the current situation. He''d feel more at ease with
Florence by his side because he''d be able to protect the woman he adored.
"Promise me that you will be by my side 24 hours a day, seven days a week, including bathroom
breaks, okay?"
Florence blushed immediately when she heard the phrase bathroom break. She blushed even more
as she swept a nce at Kevin, who was smiling brightly.

It''s good to be young. He reckoned.
Ernest, on the other hand, remained silent; Florence''s presence at the Turner was far more
dangerouspared to his. Theodore would do everything he could to keep Florence under his
control and use her as leverage to threaten Ernest in order to win the battle between the two.
Furthermore, because Turner''s men were all over the ce, a minor distraction like going to the
bathroom alone could be Theodore''s opportunity to take Florence away. As a result, round-the-clock
security was inevitable.
…
In a forest far away from the Turner''s base.
"Darn it, all of our cars are destroyed," Collin cursed.
They arrived fully prepared, with a few cars and items hidden in the forest for emergency escape.
But now all that was left was shattered shards.
"The enemies are here," Timothy said quietly as he looked out into the woods, where there were
traces of people moving in their direction, their approaching footsteps indicating that they were
being pursued by arge group.
He immediately gave an order, saying, "A few of you stay and try to stop them. We need to get
going now, Stanford, we''re not far from the city; let''s go and catch a passing car."
Stanford''s face was as white as paper as if he was about to copse. Despite his severe injuries, he
straightened his back and demonstrated incredible fortitude.
He held Phoebe, who was half-conscious, by the hand and said, "Let''s move," as he moved in a
different direction.
