“Flory.” Georgia walked towards her with a kind look. Florence did not expect seeing her there and she quickly stood up, speaking courteously, “Hello granny, I didn’t expect to see you here.” Georgia looked at her and still thought she was likable as usual.

He was still dignified and charming as usual. Florence’s heart leapt when she saw him.
