Florence wasn’t naive. She grasped Jonathan’s implication, and her expression soured instantly.

“Looks like Mr. Lawson and Miss Angela are quite cozy. Quite the envy- inducing pair,” she quipped, though her smile for him remained in place.

Jonathan, upon hearing her remark, simply cast her a cool glance.

Upon seeing his attention, Florence delighted in his focus and swiftly seized the opportunity to speak further.

To him, she was just another stranger.

The only thing that made her stand out was perhaps her connection to the Shelton Family.

It was because of his position that he didn’t order someone to throw her out despite her repeated appearances before him.

“What is it that you wish to discuss?” Florence Shelton rubbed her arms, ignoring the creeping fear in her heart, and put on a confident smile as she haughtily remarked, “Naturally, we should focus on matters of mutual interest.”
