Chapter 450 You Talk Too Much

Fanny observed the man’s stoic expression and hoped to glean some insight into what he had discovered, but her efforts were in vain.

Considering his swift return, she surmised he hadn’t uncovered anything significant. However, the sight of the document he handed to Florence left her uneasy.

The man paid no heed to Fanny’s inquiries.

Even Florence seemed indifferent to her presence.

Instead, Florence’s eyebrows raised in surprise after listening to the man’s whisper, but she quickly composed herself and focused on the document.

Fanny grew anxious that her previous inquiry had been too quiet, so she asked again, “Miss Shelton, did you find anything?”

Florence lifted her gaze and glared at her Fanny before instructing the person beside her, “Teach her a lesson, but don’t leave any marks on her face.”

The remark left Fanny puzzled momentarily, but it wasn’t until she saw a person who had been standing near Florence suddenly approaching her with fists clenched and looking ready to strike. It was then did she comprehend the gravity of the situation.

Fanny stood there, dazed and bewildered, only feeling the force of the fist striking her body before letting out a cry of pain. “Miss Shelton? Why did you hit me?”

“You’re too chatty,” Florence replied calmly, observing as she endured a few more blows before casually remarking, “Okay, don’t go overboard.”

Initially, Fanny didn’t appear to be in the best of health, so Florence hadn’t instructed her men to treat her as roughly as they did Christopher. But Fanny’s incessant chatter demanded.
