Flora sat on the sofa, her eyes staring at the phone on the coffee table, and the conversation with her parents and brother just now flashed back in her mind.

She realized that the call was unusual, and from the middle of the call, she felt that something was wrong.

All along, her contact with her mother has been strictly controlled, why did her father suddenly give them a mobile phone number?

Was the phone really given to her by her father? Would he risk being scolded by his father and secretly buy a mobile phone for his mother?

In Flora's memory, it was impossible for the cowardly man to disobey the orders of his father and brother, he had no use, and the only thing he did for Milo and his mother was to kneel in front of the old immortal and beg the Osborne family to take them in.

Other than that, the man would only say useless comforting words to them, which was of no avail.

Flora dared to conclude that her father would never dare to disobey the family's orders, and that the phone was definitely in the hands of her mother with the permission of the family.

So...... Why did the gang suddenly change their minds and relax their grip on her?

Flora closed her eyes and pondered quietly in the dark living room, the cool night breeze blowing in through the open window calmed her mind.

She had to be calm.

She couldn't keep that collar on.

If you want Milo to live, if you want your mother to live a good life, you can't do it without power.

Flora, Flora, think about it, what should you do next?

The family's intentions are already obvious, they want you to marry Lance and become the link between the Mitchell family and the Osborne family.

It's not enough for these people to put you in this natural "cage", they don't want you to gain your own power.

They hope that Lance will become her husband, and the Osborne family will definitely use the "chain" of Lance Mitchell to slowly tighten the "collar" around her neck.

She can't let them succeed, she must be free, now she can't get out, only in Dongyang Island can she get complete freedom in exchange for bargaining chips with the Osborne family on an equal footing, if you want Milo to live, you have to do it.

Mother and brother spoke in a strange way just now, they usually don't talk about aristocratic things, but this time they specifically mentioned Lance and emphasized happiness.

Someone in the family must have told them to say that...... The people in the family have now begun to hint at her through her mother and brother.

There is not much time left for her, and it is estimated that it will not be long before the family will tear off the last mask and order her to marry Lance.

She had expected that the Osborne family would at least give her a little time to play freely, and if she could build a network on the island that would benefit the Osborne, the family would loosen their rules on her.

But now it seems that she overestimated the conscience of the Osbornes.

These people have never given her the slightest trust, and Lance's entry into Dongyang Island is the opportunity for them to attack.

If Lance hadn't made it to the island, they would have given her a little time, but for now, the family wasn't going to indulge her.

Flora now has no choice but to hurry up and find a backer in a short period of time.

She had to be free, she had to find someone stronger and more trustworthy than Lance, someone strong enough to make the family re-evaluate her worth.

Flora has been looking for such a person, although there are many eligible targets, but people with power and money will not simply look at her as a person, and people who can ignore the Osborne family behind her often do not have enough capital.

Or fate made her meet Su Ming, when Su Ming walked out of the subway, she realized that she had met an extraordinary person, and she believed that it was not a coincidence.

Su Ming himself possessed terrifying strength enough to kill the subway stalker, and now he has joined the most dominant investigation bureau on Dongyang Island.

Although he has just joined the Bureau of Investigation and his position is not high, his record is there.

Flora dared to conclude that none of the nobles on Dongyang Island would reject him because of his low position, but would desperately slap him up.

Those old nobles are all human spirits, and they all know that the icing on the cake is not as good as charcoal in the snow, and befriending a strong person before he grows up, giving the least and gaining the most.

Dongyang Island is a forbidden island, which was just liberated ten years ago, and the nobles of the outside world have no influence here, but the local area has an extremely rare specialty spirit salt, which is coveted by the outside world.

The Osborne family must also covet the spiritual salt of Dongyang Island, and for them, becoming "friends" with the investigation bureau of Dongyang Island is more important than consolidating the relationship with the Mitchell family.

And Su Ming will definitely have a place in the investigation of the Seventh Bureau in the future, and the old nobles and new nobles of Dongyang Island will win him over.

Flora's mind has always been very clear, and the only thing that is not sober is that her head is hot at that time and she proposed to Su Ming.

"Ugh—why would I do that?" Flora sighed.

Thinking back to her actions at that time, she was so stupid that she felt that she could rely on her beauty to tempt Su Ming.

And rightfully so...... She lost badly, and now Su Ming is probably very wary of her.

But now she can't give up, if she gives up now, then the family will end the treatment of Milo, with Milo's current physical condition, he will definitely not survive.

"Flora...... You can't give up yet...... It's not yet cornered, you still have a chance. Flora muttered to herself.
