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.

“But isn’t it too soon for you to say such things?”

It was evident to anyone that Florence Shelton was trying to downplay her intentions, with the emphasis clearly on her second statement.

“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?”

Florence had tried every trick in the book to arrange a meeting with him.

Whether it was about work, collaboration, business, or even academics, she had tried them all.
