“Chris?” she cautiously called out.
“Fanny, I’m here,” Christopher replied. However, as if he hadn’t heard her previous request, he continued, “I’m a little busy at the moment. I'll get in touch with you later.”
Before Fanny could utter another word, he abruptly ended the call. “Huh?” Fanny was left baffled. She wasn’t the only one-even Jane was frozen in shock.
Florence let out a mocking laugh, her eyes scanning Jane as she remarked, “Is this what you meant when you said that he would definitely come back for her?”
At her words, Jane felt her knees going weak.
Fortunately, she managed to compose herself in time and stammered, “I-I don’t understand why Christopher is behaving like this...”
“Ha. Are you that cowardly?” Upon saying that, Florence waved her hand dismissively.

After some time, Florence grew disinterested and was about to speak when her subordinate handed her a document.
“Miss Florence, Ms. Coolidge left this behind before she departed. She mentioned she forgot to give it to you.” The man spoke solemnly, placing the document before Florence without averting his gaze.

Hmm?
And there it was, Angela’s husband was Jonathan.
Well, what a small world...
Florence couldn't help but smirk, finding it quite amusing.

Florence’s words hit Fanny like a thunderbolt, shocking her to the core. She gazed at Florence with a conflicted expression, unsure of what to say. In fact, she was completely clueless.
