"What's wrong? Don't cry, I was bad last time, why are you saying I'm sorry? Lance asked in a panic.

Flora wiped her tears: "Lance, I'm going to confess something to you, even if it's to lighten my guilt a little." ”

"What's the matter?" Lance had a bad premonition.

"I'm not really from the Osbornes, I'm just an illegitimate daughter of my father."

Lance froze, staring at Flora in shock, his eyes full of disbelief.

Flora continued: "I also have a younger brother, he has abnormal attrition, I didn't come to Dongyang Island of my own volition, but was forced by my family, the reason why I participated in the Ability League, the reason why I came to Dongyang Island, and the reason why I have not rejected you is because of ......"

"Because you're insecure." Lance said softly.

Flora glanced at the other party and said coldly, "No...... Because I'm an illegitimate daughter. ”

"If I want to make my family better, I have to rely on external forces, and you are my first external force.

Lance, didn't you notice that you were in the Osborne's backyard all the time when you saw me? That's because I'm not qualified to go into the main house, I've never been in the main house, you should have seen the little house at the very edge of the backyard, right? That's where my mom and I live, and Milo.

If you don't have a disease, I'll be glad you can marry me, but Milo is sick, and just being a puppet of marriage can't make up the money for treatment.

Treatment for aberrant attrition is very expensive, especially in the later stages, and if I don't have my own independent power, I can't convince the family to come up with the money for Milo's treatment.

For the sake of Milo, I have to be a truly useful person to the family, and I have to be irreplaceable!

I came here, half of it was my family's intention, and half of it was my own thoughts, Dongyang Island was the origin of spiritual salt after all, if Milo's condition worsened, then it would be the best choice for him to come here for treatment.

Reims...... The person I'm ashamed of in the world, besides Milo, is you...... Every time I see you, I think I'm a very mean and shameless woman...... I'm sorry. ”

"It's okay! Why didn't you say it earlier! We can figure it out together! I'll help you! I'm on your side, and I love your people, not the Osbornes! ”

Lance expressed his affection emotionally.

Flora's tears had broken down, and she bowed her head, clenched her teeth, and tried to hold back her crying.

"Lance, you don't understand at all, I don't understand at all, I lost my freedom when I married you! Become your vassal! The Osbornes don't value me anymore, and I'm not even a threat to them.

What will happen to Milo then? Will they still throw a lot of money at a person who doesn't know how long they can live and is of no use at all?

I can't be attached to anyone, I have to be strong enough to be like those old nobles on this island to be qualified to talk to my family on an equal footing! ”

"I understand, I understand."

Lance's eyes were also teary-eyed, he didn't expect that the person he loved so much had such a difficult past, he felt that he knew too late.

Flora wiped away her tears and glanced at Lance.

She knew that the other party still didn't understand, and that Lance's mind might not be able to understand this political struggle.

Sometimes, it was the other party who made her feel ashamed, and every time Lance couldn't understand her, it made her realize that she was taking advantage of such a naïve idiot, and this idiot actually really liked her!

If only Lance didn't really like her, if he just approached her with the idea of playing with her, then she would have killed the other without hesitation.

"You don't understand, I can't refuse the family's arrangement, and I must obey them before I become strong enough. But Lance ...... I can't marry you, and I must not become your vassal. ”

Flora shook her head, her hands trembling as she tried to make up her mind.

"I understand! I told my dad right away that I didn't want to marry you! Don't worry, Flora, it's okay. Lance assured.

Flora shook her head: "That's useless...... I'm sorry Lance, for Milo's sake you have to die. ”

She held out her hand to Lance.

She had to do this, and since she couldn't refuse the Osborne's arrangement, there were only other elements to ruin the marriage.

Come to think of it, there is only Lance, and if Lance disappears into this world, then this marriage will naturally not be possible.

No one would have thought that she had killed Lance, because her relationship with Lance had been superficially close over the years, and almost everyone else thought she had a crush on Lance except for her father and mother, as well as Milo.

On this basis, with a little operation, the suspicion of killing Lance can be blamed on the local gangsters, and no one will find evidence, because she will completely vaporize Lance!

"Wait a minute! Wait a minute, Flora! ”

Struggling violently, Lance knocked over his chair, staring at Flora in horror, puzzled.

"Why...... Why are you killing me! ”

Flora pursed her lips and continued to reach out to Lance, she didn't want to hesitate any longer, if she continued to hesitate, she didn't know if her determination to kill would waver.

"Why did you kill me? I love you so much...... I'm willing to do anything for you! ”

Lance closed his eyes in pain, tears streaming down his face and his expression twisted.

"It doesn't matter if it's your brother or your family...... I've always been on your side, you know...... I entered Dongyang Island for you, I have loved you for so many years, why...... Why are you still killing me? Don't you believe me? Lance cried and cried.

Flora was about to touch Lance's hand and stopped, she took a few deep breaths, her hand hanging in the air.

Then, her hand was lowered.

Sure enough, she still couldn't do it, it was too evil to do that, and it had violated the bottom line of morality.

Flora walked behind Lance, grabbed the chair and helped him back up, and said:

"Lance, can you disappear for a while? Find a place to hide, live incognito for a few years, and when everything is settled in me, will you show up again? ”

Lance was stunned for a moment, and then nodded heavily: "For you and I can disappear in the eyes of the family, I will hide in Dongyang Island!" They'll kill me! ”

"Lance, I believe in you, I don't really want to kill you, but for Milo's sake, I'm ...... I ......"

"I understand, I understand you!" Lance also cried and nodded vigorously, "Don't cry, I'll help you...... I'll hide it and never let anyone find out! ”

"Thank you! Thank you so much! ”

Flora wiped away her tears and untied the rope for Lance.

Lance got up and gazed affectionately at Flora, who hesitated for a moment and said, "I'll hide tonight." ”

"I'm sorry."

"It's okay, I can do anything for you." Lance smiled.

Flora nodded, turned and walked towards the door, where she was stopped by Lance.

"Flora!"

Flora turned her head.

Lance had tears in his eyes:

"You said it before...... You're with me and just want to take advantage of me. I want to ask, have you ever loved me after all these years? ”
