Chapter 481 Stars in Your Eyes

Tiny matters often carry unexpected weight, especially in the intricate dance of the Tuckson Family’s affairs. Their impulse to aid James only tangled their web further, a knot Florence found herself unraveling.

“Miss Shelton, what should we do?” queried one of her subordinates.

Florence’s eyes rolled heavenward before she replied, “Get someone to welcome them.”

This simple directive meant deploying a representative to the police station, beseeching for James‘ release on behalf of the Shelton Family. But just as Florence prepared to retreat into contemplation, a nagging thought arrested her.

A disquiet settled upon her as she pondered how James could have accessed her contact details without consent. “It must have been Fanny who disclosed it.”

“Fanny, hmm?” Florence mused, her amusement fading into suspicion. “Go and contact her. Wait. Contact James first.”

Intentions to prank Fanny morphed at the eleventh hour, redirected by thoughts of her complicity in tricking Christopher into coming to Northland. If sibling love bound them, their actions should mirror, or so Florence reasoned.

Meanwhile, Angela, having just finished her training, found Yoanna
