Chapter 637: Not Necessary
Upon hearing Collin’s words, Theodore looked over at Ernest immediately.
His eyes were sharp.
He said in an ordering tone, “Ernest, you should know the power of our Turner family clearly. Pick up someone from the family to help you find the herb. We’ll fully support you no matter what you need.”
Hence, he didn’t want Ernest to reject.
Ernest looked the Theodore coldly, curling up his lips into an ironic sneer.
Theodore would definitely help him get recovered truly because of his gene with the genetic disease. However, Ernest knew that Theodore had his own intention behind his offer.
Once Theodore found the herb and controlled it, he would definitely use it to threaten Ernest with it to make Ernest obedient to him.
In that case, Theodore would catch on something of Ernest.
He would use it to threaten Ernest, making unreasonable demands.
Since Ernest had been confirmed as the heir of the Turner family and the Turners cared about his genes, he wouldn’t let Theodore have something on him under such a circumstance, even though Theodore was his biological grandfather.
Ernest parted his thin lips and said in an extremely casual tone, “With my capabilities, it wouldn’t be too difficult for me to find a few herbs. If I can’t find it in the end, I’ll ask the Turner family to help.”
After a pause, he looked over at Theodore with a faint smile.”Grandpa, you won’t turn me down by then, will you?”
Although he was asking Theodore, his words had refused him.
Theodore was rendered speechless and he couldn’t insist.
His face became more and more darkened. He glared at Ernest unhappily, but Ernest wasn’t impacted by his anger at all.
He wouldn’t change his mind either. NôvelDrama.Org holds text © rights.
Fury surged in Theodore’s heart. He felt quite annoyed and regretful. Although Theodore was the master of the Turner family, Ernest had the right to decide on this matter.
Theodore had to admit that he couldn’t convince Ernest at all.
“Ernest, you must know - you are the heir of the Turner family. Your life and death don’t belong to yourself only. It has an impact on the prosperity and development of the whole Turner family.”
Theodore suppressed his anger and looked at Ernest with a solemn look.
Ernest curled up his thin lips slightly into a quite sarcastic smile.
Right now, the more Theodore cared about Ernest, the more hilarious and disgusting he looked.
Just a few hours ago, Theodore was the person who wanted to abolish him and punish him.
Now Benjamin had lost, and Theodore knew that he got the family’s genes, he suddenly treated Ernest so well.
No matter how much family affection was offered by Theodore, It was still up to Ernest if he wanted to accept it or not.
Ernest had run out of his patience to watch Theodore fake his love and care. He stood up directly and said in a cold tone, “Since we’ve done discussion, it’s time to leave now.”
He looked cold and careless as if he didn’t want to stay in the Turner’s house for one more second.
The reason that he came back was making Benjamin expose the confidential information, and also making the Turner family stop abolishing him, killing him, and troubling him. He had no interest to stay in the Turner’s house at all.
All the Turners noticed his attitude, their hearts sinking. Most of them started to regret it.
If they hadn’t been so against and troubled Ernest earlier, he wouldn’t disgust them so much.
Finally, they got an heir that had the genetic disease of the family. They wondered if the heir would be against the family from now on.
Theodore frowned deeply, quite unhappy with Ernest’s attitude.
However, he was still afraid of other things. He still kept patience on his face.
He said, “All right. You should go meet Florence’s parents. Our Turner family fully supports you guys to be together. It would be wonderful if you could get engaged first.”
‘Get engaged?’ Florence was taken aback when these words were reechoed in her mind.
She was way too familiar with the sense of the ceremony represented by those two words. Ernest and she started from an engagement.
When they were in City N, they were couple-to-be.
Would they get engaged again now?
With a slightly blushed face, Florence looked at Ernest with her twinkling eyes. As if a small stone was tossed into her heart, making it fluctuated.
Ernest turned to look into Florence’s eyes.
Her blushed cheeks looked so adorable. He saw himself in her eyes, making him touched.
Probably, “get engaged” were the least disgusting words that were said by Theodore.
Stanford looked at the love birds who were staring at each other affectionately, his temples popping violently.
With a darkened face, he immediately stopped them from imagining.
“Let’s go back to the Fraser family and explain everything first. Then we’ll talk about other things,” he said coldly.
What was the use no matter how much the Turner family supported them?
The matters that Ernest had disguised himself as Clarence and Florence was in danger hadn’t passed yet.
All the romantic imagination that Florence had was broken by Stanford’s words.
She looked at Ernest and smiled helplessly.
Ernest looked at her tenderly. Pulling her into his arms, he whispered in her ears, “It’ll be troublesome to get engaged. We engaged once already. In fact, we can skip this step directly.”
After the engagement, they would get married.
Florence widened her eyes in surprise, blushing instantly.
Her heart hammered as if there was a rabbit in her chest.
She looked forward to it so much.
Ernest refused to get any help from the Turners, so he didn’t have anything to do if he stayed in the Turner’s house.
After staying with the Turners for several hours, the group was about to leave.
Before leaving Turner’s house, Stanford took Florence to the place where Benjamin was imprisoned.
Florence had roughly thought that Benjamin might not in a good shape now. However, she didn’t expect that he would look so miserable.
He was lying on the cold floor, blood from his wounds covering everywhere. There was a bloody hole on each of all fours of him, blood oozing from them continuously.
However, Benjamin seemed to feel no pain at all. He was lying on the floor with his eyes widened. He stared at the ceiling excitedly.
He kept speaking in a hoarse tone.
He was giving orders most of the time as if he was talking to others...
“He was still in the hypnosis dream, believe that he’s in his base and planning how to deal with us,” Addison, who was guarding Benjamin, explained to Florence.
He had been here watching Benjamin, and it was he who pulled the nails from Benjamin’s wrists. He misled Benjamin at proper times so that Benjamin thought he was on the way to his base.
Florence frowned and asked, “Has he told you where Clarence is?”
She wasn’t interested in Benjamin’s force or plan. She only wanted to know if Clarence was safe or not.
Ernest was standing next to her. He noticed how eager she looked when asking about Clarence, and an unhappy light flashed through his eyes.
Florence indeed cared about Clarence.
Suddenly, he felt that it wasn’t worth it to spend so much effort to rescue Clarence.
Feeling jealous and unhappy, Ernest started to wonder if he should kill Clarence mercifully when there would be a chance.
Florence completely had no idea that Ernest was thinking about such a bloody and brutal matter. She was still waiting for Addison to answer nervously.
