Chapter 465 Get To Know Me Again

Author: Jenny Drake
Faye came out of the room and saw Cedric working on his tablet.

He looked up at her in concern. "You must be exhausted."

She shook her head. "I'm fine."

"Go rest." He took her hand and rubbed the back of her neck endearingly.

She leaned against his embrace and requested, "Carry me upstairs."

He smiled and planted a kiss on her forehead. "Okay. I'll carry you."

He picked her up and strode upstairs.

She wrapped her arms around his neck and leaned against his chest, feeling extremely safe.

When did she start relying on Cedric so much?

It almost felt like she had nothing to fear as long as she was with him, even though she was independent and strong when she was alone.

She always thought that relying on other people was too risky an endeavor because one could grow lazy. However, trusting Cedric didn't seem like a bad choice after all.

She was carried upstairs and Cedric ran her a bath.

Just as she was about to get into the bathtub, she noticed that Cedric wasn't leaving.

    To start anew?The room fell into a prolonged silence. Flora sat quietly on the bed and studied the familiar face before her. For a moment, she didn't know how to respond. At the time, she had said, "Considering how sincere you are in admitting your mistake, I'll give you another chance. I hope you'll behave in the future and not disappoint me." After saying this, she arrogantly turned and left. She may have appeared proud, but she was smiling the entire way back. She was in such a great mood that she felt like flying. The skip in her footsteps and the cheerful tune unconsciously escaping her lips indicated her good mood. When she turned around after leaving, Victor saw her flowing hair and exuberant smile under the setting sun. His heart raced at the sight. For many years afterward, when people questioned Victor about why he was so infatuated with Flora, his mind would always replay that scene. Her lively appearance from that time continued to save him later in life

    At noon, Faye was woken up by the sound of loud chattering outside.She planned to sleep through the night and covered her head with the blanket in annoyance. Still, Jesse's loud voice penetrated the door and could be heard clearly. "Chief, that woman keeps shouting and asking to meet with the ma'am. This started yesterday night. Our men ignored her and she started bashing her head against the cage. If this carries on, she will die.""Let her die. That saves us the time," Cedric said coldly. Jesse's lips twitched. "But ma'am seems quite interested in that woman. If she dies, the ma'am won't get to have fun with her."Cedric raised an eyebrow and glanced at Jesse. "I guess you're right. Give her an injection to calm her down. Let's wait until my wife wakes up."Jesse was rendered speechless.He recalled that Cedric was never one to get anywhere near women. There were a few female soldiers back when they were training and they fawned over Cedric. Still, Cedric didn't even sp

    "W-what did you just say?" Daniella's voice trembled as she spoke.If she could move, she would have climbed up, slammed against the cage, and screamed at Faye. But she couldn't. She could only widen her eyes and mumble at Faye while glaring at her with all the fury inside of her. "It's impossible, absolutely impossible! How could you have replicated my drug?" She had spent so much manpower, resources, and money on developing poisons that could trigger various effects. She needed so many years to develop it and took great pride in the results. How could a little girl recreate it in half a day? What kind of a joke was this?Even if she didn't understand anything, the experts she invited were all highly skilled. They were all medical maniacs with a crazy obsession in research. There was no reason for them to deceive her on how rare the poison was.Hence, Faye had to be lying. "Do you think I'm clueless? Although I don't know much about medicine, I have many advanced res

    In the car, Faye looked at Cedric and asked, "Has Mr. Anderson been giving you a hard time?"Cedric raised an eyebrow. "Do I look like the kind of man that people can bully?"Her lips twitched. "So you've been giving him a hard time?""The Anderson family crossed the line, so I obviously had to teach them a lesson," he said calmly. His confidence made her feel safe and she said, "Dismiss the army. The Anderson family will probably stay quiet for a while after this."After all, Daniella had truly lost everything this time and the Anderson family would likely lay low to recover their losses. As for the relatives of the Garcia family …Faye didn't understand what gave them the confidence to go against Victor, but now, she finally realized that they were supported by the Anderson family. Cedric would take care of the Anderson family and she decided to leave the Garcia family to Victor. She hoped that he could handle it well, or he would have no right to stay by Flora's side.

    "I don't know how everything turned out this way."Flora didn't go into as much detail as Victor did. She briefly mentioned her encounter with Victor. Then, closing her eyes, she took a deep breath. "At that time, I was about your age now. My extraordinary talent was discovered at a young age, so I stayed with the Reed family from the age of two until 15. "When I was 15, I passed the test at Yale Pharmacy. I gained fame after solving a significant medical problem and became the pride of the Reed family."Despite her young age, her reputation spread far and wide. She didn't understand how dangerous fame could be at the time. Having received the best education from her family since childhood, she believed that it was only natural for her to contribute her abilities to the Reed family and Jorn City.She was young but experienced due to what she learned from Yale Pharmacy. She had achieved success in pharmaceutical research and won numerous awards. In a few years, she became t

    The Lovers' Herb that Selena handed to Flora had just started budding. "Flora, I plan to grow this plant and give it to my crush. Rumors are saying that giving this plant to one's crush would convey your feelings and get them to accept you. I've been keeping this for a few days, but it's starting to brown. I'm worried that it won't survive. "Your family specializes in growing herbs, right? I heard that you have a talent for it."Selena asked with pleading eyes, "Can you help me out? I won't blame you even if you fail. I'm just running out of options. If this plant dies, I'll be really upset. You're my best friend, so just try your best for me." Flora couldn't say no. After all, it was just a plant. The Reeds were a family of doctors and Flora practically grew up in the herb garden. As Selena mentioned, Flora had a talent that allowed her to easily grow herbs that others struggled to raise, including herbs that were close to being extinct. For decades, the Reed family hel

Their heated exchange escalated to the point where they decided to settle the matter with a bet.Selena insisted that Flora could develop the drug and allow the herbs to thrive better than others if given the opportunity. The person in charge mocked her claims and didn't believe what the young girl said. In the end, they made a bet: If Flora failed, Selena would take responsibility for all the losses, but if she succeeded, Flora would take charge of the place.The person in charge readily agreed. However, after finalizing their agreement, they realized they hadn't given Flora a chance to speak. Flora wasn't interested in these things at all. Sandra reacted badly when she saw the plant.

She didn't have to wait for long because she received a phone call from Tracy later that afternoon. "Faye, you could've come at me if you were upset. Why did you target Grandma? She treated you well, yet you killed her over such trivial matters. Are you even human?"Faye smirked. "Since when do you care about her, Tracy?""What are you talking about? That's our grandmother. You did this, didn't you?""Would you believe me if I said I didn't do it?" Faye sneered. "Don't think that you can do anything you want just because you married someone rich.

She even allowed Lizzie to go into their home to poison Faye while Flora was at work. Faye suffered through so much hardship at the time and came close to dying. She was already poisoned when she was pregnant with Faye, which meant Faye was born with poison in her body. Though Flora tried her best to counter the poison, Faye was still more frail than ordinary children. Eleanor knew that Faye wasn't Clint's child, so she had always been displeased with her. "Had I known that she's the kind of person who can harm a child, I would never leave Faye with her." Rage filled Flora's eyes. Just as she was about to leave, Eleanor started coughing on the bed. Clark shouted and ran outside to get the doctor. Until the doctor arrived, there were two minutes when Flora was alone with Eleanor.

He said that Grandma passed away and we need to go home."Clint jolted and collapsed onto the ground. "What?"Tracy smirked. "They can't reach you or Mom, so he called me instead. We need to go home right now.""Ha! So what if she's dead? She doesn't see us as family, so why should we go back?" Lizzie scoffed in contempt. Eleanor disliked her right from the start. If Eleanor didn't stop her from marrying Clint at the very beginning, Flora would have never gotten married to Clint. Though Eleanor helped get rid of Flora in the end, she continued to mistreat Lizzie when she finally married Clint. Eleanor resented Flora for being too strong-willed and disrespectful. However, she looked down on Lizzie for not being as talented as Flora and incapable of bringing more profit to the Brown family. She kept comparing Lizzie to Flora and bossed her around.
