Honorable Hubby Behind Me

Chapter 93

"When you have a little brother, I'll protect him like Big Brother protected me," Asher raised his fist and said.

Although his mind worked differently from that o f his peers, his pure heart understood the meaning of

gratefulness. Since Samuel protected him, he knew how to repay Samuel.

Samuel glanced at Asher in surprise, then asked Florinda, "Asher's mind is quite clear huh?"

Florinda nodded and explained, "His intelligence is lower compared to his peers. He couldn't speak before this,

but during the past two years, I've been telling him stories every day and he slowly learned sethics."

Samuel nodded. Florinda had to take care of the household and make sure Asher was knowledgeable. It was no

wonder that her life was that hard-she could not squeeze in more tto earn a living.

"Once you're recovered, I'll arrange for you to get a job and give Asher a change of living environment. The

ghetto is much too chaotic a place and Asher gets bullied after you go to work," Samuel said.

Florinda knew about all that because she would often see Asher with scars when she went home. However, she

did not dare to think much about it because her current abilities precluded her from changing the situation.

Thinking about it would only hurt her heart.

"No, you've helpeda lot. | just suffered sminor injuries and | can't rely on you for the rest of my life,"

Florinda said.

"Maybe it's fate and God wants us to get to know each other. In any case, I'll be upfront with you before the

pleasantries. You'd still be let go if you don't do your job well," Samuel said solemnly.

Florinda nodded. Her gratitude was beyond words.

After the two of them left the hospital, Yvonne asked Samuel, "Where are you going to arrange for Aunt Zandt to

work at? She probably only knows how to do laborious jobs. You should know that it's not necessarily a good

thing for her to force herself into a different circle."

The meaning of Yvonne's words was obvious. Changing the people around Florinda might sometimes prove to be

counterproductive because she might not be able to adapt to the new life.

"There are people who have their back against a huge abyss, where retreating by even one step was not an

option. For them, no matter how thorny their path ahead lies and no matter how scarred they are, they will

continue moving forward without hesitation. She's that kind of person," Samuel said. He remembered how an

abyss appeared behind him at the age of twelve two years ago. From that point onward, Samuel understood that

principle. He did not want to be crushed to pieces, so the only thing he could do was move forward. 4

"Why do you look like you're getting emotional?" Yvonne questioned.

"Because we don't have a little brother," Samuel jested with a teasing smile. 1

Yvonne punched Samuel in the chest and got into the car without saying a word. Her ears were flushed and her

face was as red as a monkey's bottom.

Samuel got into the car but did not start it. He looked as though he did not intend to leave.

Yvonne did not want to talk to Samuel but she had no idea what he was doing and could not help but ask

curiously, "Why aren't we leaving?"

"I suddenly thought of a very serious problem and | have to think about it properly." Samuel's face was so

solemn and it reached peak seriousness.

"What's wrong? What happened?" Yvonne asked worriedly.

Samuel nodded and said in a deep voice. "Say, what should our little brother's nbe?"

"SAMUEL...!" Yvonne shouted violently and startled Samuel into starting the engine at once.

The two of them did not go has Yvonne was afraid that there would be more animosity between them when

they returned hand met Lydia. She therefore planned to go back after dinner and avoid seeing her

altogether. It should be fine once the matter faded a little in the morning.

They then found a restaurant to have dinner. In the past three years, the number of times they had a candlelight

dinner could be counted on one hand. However, the harmonious atmosphere brought an unexpected guest-

Drake Turner.

Drake was also having a meal in that restaurant, accompanied by someone with a good figure.

Although she was not as beautiful as Yvonne, she was a solid seven out of ten. "Such a coincidence, Yvonne. |

didn't expect to meet you." Although Drake had a girlfriend, he looked at Yvonne's with lustful eyes, since she

was one of Cloud City's most beautiful women after all. She might be married, but it did prevent Drake from

lusting over her. i

"So, you're Yvonne. Thanks for not being with Drake. Otherwise, where would | find such an excellent boyfriend?"

The woman next to Drake nestled in his arms as if she had no backbone.

Drake smiled triumphantly and said, "Don't say that, I'm not an excellent boyfriend. My annual salary is just one

million. I'm still far away."

Through his explicitly haughty tone, Yvonne knew that he was deliberately showing off. There was nothing for

her to refute though, because Drake was indeed a very capable man, and someone with an annual salary of one

million was truly admirable.

"This... Isn't this the famous Samuel?" Drake asked with a mocking smile.
