Chapter 475: He Is Gone
Chapter 475: He Is Gone
Florence frowned in disgust and was thoroughly irritated.
Benjamin was really just disgusting a cockroach that couldn’t be killed.
“Huh! Since Mr. Turner doesn’t believe it, then okay. If you want to forge relationships with me and call me Uncle Ernest , then I won’t object.”
Clarence took two steps forward, his tall body standing impartially in front of Florence protecting her behind him.
He looked straight at Benjamin, with a playful arc at the corner of his mouth, “My dear Nephew.”
Benjamin’s face turned dark in an instant!
When Clarence called him like that, he was simply insulting him.
He was annoyed and wanted to refute, but before he kept calling him Ernest and saying that he was his Uncle Ernest , if he didn’t admit this way of addressing now, that would mean a slap in his face.
Benjamin pursed his lips tightly, his heart suffocating. When the Fraser family saw this scene, they couldn’t help but shake their heads inwardly and their gazes on Clarence became much more kind.
Clarence’s behavior was natural and unruly and even more disdainful towards the Turner family. He didn’t even care a little bit about Ernest’s identity.
If he was Ernest himself, he would have never done anything to damage his reputation like this.
Wouldn’t it have been embarrassing for him to squeeze Benjamin like this? NôvelDrama.Org owns this.
From this point of view, Clarence really had nothing to do with Ernest.
The previous rumors were all false.
The uncle looked at Clarence and nodded. Then he looked at Victoria and said in a kind voice, “Since this matter has been clarified and was just a misunderstanding, let’s stop here.”
Other uncles and aunts also nodded to express their opinions.
Benjamin’s face was really dark. He clenched his fists unwillingly, gritted his teeth and suppressed his anger deep in his stomach.
This time, he had really lost.
No matter what he said now, nothing could make the storm pick up again.
However, letting Clarence go made his heart hurt unwillingly.
Florence saw the uncles and aunts letting this matter go and the huge stone was finally lifted off her chest.
Although, she didn’t know how Ernest concealed it, the result was the best and he was able to conceal the truth smoothly.
She and Ernest still had a chance to make a comeback.
Victoria nodded, raised her eyes and looked at Clarence in a gentle and apologetic way.
“Clarence, sorry, we misunderstood you and made you suffer such grievances.”
Victoria was satisfied with the result. After all, she was very optimistic about Clarence and hoped that Clarence could give Florence a lifetime of happiness.
Clarence smiled like a gentleman and said indifferently, “It doesn’t matter. The recent rumors also bothered me a bit. Now that they have been clarified, I have way less to worry about.”
Stanford heard this, stepped forward and said with a serious expression, “Don’t worry, the grievances you have suffered at the hands of my family today will not be in vain. I promise that I will catch the person behind these rumors and won’t let him off lightly!”
The chilling voice that came through the gritted teeth was fierce and brutal.
Benjamin couldn’t help but stiffen and fine drops of sweat appeared on his forehead.
He had arranged for someone to spread this rumor!
If Stanford found out what he was doing behind his back, he was afraid that he wouldn’t be able to stay in the Fraser family.
He was afraid that he didn’t have much time left.
As the rumor got cleared up, the people of the Fraser family also dispersed. Florence went back to her wing with Clarence.
As soon as he walked through the door, Florence grabbed Clarence by his wrist and dragged him anxiously to the side corridor.
She looked around to make sure no one else was there and then quickly asked, “You scared me to death. How did you pass Collin’s examination just now?”
Florence had also thought about if Ernest privately used some method to settle it with Collin. But the words of the Fraser family’s uncle reminded her that Collin had grown up in the Fraser family. Even if he wasn’t related by blood to the family, he was still close to them like family.
Otherwise, he wouldn’t have been wandering around outside for so many years just to bring her back.
Collin’s loyalty to the Fraser family made it definitely impossible for him to collude with Ernest and deceive Victoria.
Clarence lowered his head and looked at Florence’s small hand holding his wrist with a deep gaze. A teasing smile evoked at the corners of his mouth.
He said with a playful and casual tone, “Flory, you are so smart, why don’t you guess?”
Florence was stunned for a while.
She was about to say that she couldn’t think of anything that was why she asked him. However, looking at his smiling playful face, her heart jumped suddenly.
The man in front of him had not changed in appearance in any way in the past few days. However, his overall temperament and that playful gaze were completely different from the person she knew!
Florence was struck by lightning and suddenly let him go.
“You… You… You…”
Clarence put his hands in his trouser pockets at random and leaned back against the wall comfortably.
He smiled, “Flory, what is wrong with me?”
Florence thought it was unfathomable but the facts were too obvious before her eyes.
The man in front of her had a completely different temperament from Ernest and Ernest always called her Florence, never Flory.
She trembled and gritted her teeth, “You are not Ernest!”
Clarence leaned back on the wall lazily, with a smile. There was no panic of being found on his face.
He praised lightly, “You are really smart.”
Florence couldn’t feel happy at all. Her heart suddenly felt very cold.
She hadn’t been able to recognize it until now. What was smart about her, she was simply stupid!
It was no wonder that Collin couldn’t find any trace when he examined Clarence. Of course, there was no change. The person in front of her was actually Clarence!
That was why he was so unscrupulous and unburdened when he said such words to scorn the Turner family.
Because he was not from the Turner family at all.
Florence was too flustered and scared when she was in the hall. Clarence deliberately played Ernest’s style of behaving and didn’t give her time to doubt it.
Florence gritted her teeth in annoyance and hurriedly asked, “Where is Ernest? Where did he go?”
“Flory, as soon as you found out my identity, you immediately stopped looking at me. Do you know such a gap in your behavior makes my sensitive heart break?”
Clarence said playfully and deliberately stretched out his hand to touch his chest.
The corners of Florence’s mouth twitched. She was holding that arm just now.
It was really embarrassing to think about how she acted with him just now.
Florence’s cheeks flushed and she said stiffly, “I am not familiar with you. I am meeting you for the first time, why are you heartbroken? Stop talking nonsense and tell me where is Ernest?”
She was flustered and wanted to see him right away.
Clarence lowered his head and said in a low and dangerous voice, “Flory, since I am here now, Ernest does not need to stay here anymore.”
