“Not too soon.” As Jonathan spoke, Florence couldn’t help but shiver, sensing a sudden chill in the air.

“Heh heh…” Florence smiled nervously and attempted to speak again. “Mr. Lawson, you really are…”

“Don’t bother with pleasantries.” He cut her off and gave a piercing and warning gaze. “What do you want to discuss?”
