Upon hearing Jonathan suggest changing locations, Florence knew that he had made his decision. Even so, she hesitated to hand Christopher over immediately.

“Mr. Lawson, why don’t I keep him with me for now?” she suggested, casting a glance at Christopher, who was being held to the side by her men. She went on with a smile. “My men will make sure that Mr. Sanders is well taken care of.”

Christopher, who was nearby, overheard her words and was once again startled by her address to him. However, no one paid any heed to his reaction at that moment, and not even Jonathan spared him a second glance.

He refrained from speaking, afraid he might upset Florence or Jonathan and ruin his chances of being rescued.

As she watched Christopher tremble, Angela found the sight quite amusing. Even with Florence’s attempts to anger her, she had handled the situation with Jonathan satisfactorily.

When Florence spoke and Jonathan continued to remain silent, she began to worry. “Mr. Lawson? What do you think?”

Jonathan frowned and looked at Florence before casting a brief glance at Christopher behind her. He asked, “What did you want to discuss?”

Thinking she had an opportunity, she plastered a sincere smile onto her face and looked at him gleefully. She replied innocently, “We can talk about anything. I just wanted to meet you. I’ll hand him over to you after our conversation, so you don’t have to worry.”

Disregarding Florence’s phony act, Jonathan continued to frown.

Angela knew what he was hesitating about and proposed, “Jon, how about we replace a place to eat?

Turning to look at her, Jonathan saw that her eyes were clear and void of any other emotion, so he agreed, “All right. It’s time to eat anyway.”

Florence glanced at Angela with a foul look. She greatly desired Angela’s position as Jonathan’s wife and was unhappy with her because of this. Even so, she was willing to comply and flatter him when Jonathan spoke, even if it wasn’t directed at her.

“Mr. Lawson, you’re right. This isn’t the appropriate place for a chat. Let’s look for a restaurant to grab a bite and talk. You can choose the venue, Mr. Lawson.”

No one made any objections now that Florence had spoken.

Despite her attempts to flatter him, Jonathan was still detached. He ordered his men to enter the car and drive in the direction of their home.

Florence vented her anger upon being disregarded by Jonathan by kicking Christopher, who was being hoisted up, as she got into the car. “Put him in the other car. What a sore sight!”

“Ah!” Christopher yelled at the unexpected kick in the same spot, unable to control his pain.

“Yes, Miss Florence.” At her orders, the bodyguard promptly dragged Christopher into the car behind them.

Upon entering her own car, Florence glanced at Jonathan’s vehicle. Since he had arranged several bodyguards around Angela, they left in two cars

as well..

After shooting a glare at the car where Angela and Jonathan were seated, Florence quickly got into the car and threw herself onto the seat.

“That Angela is so bothersome.”

Although she had gotten the chance to talk to Jonathan on the surface, Angela was still present, which made her unhappy with the outcome,

The bodyguard accompanying her overheard her complaints and hurriedly comforted her, “Don’t worry, Miss Florence. We’ll replace a way to arrange some private time between you two.”

Florence looked up at him. “Go on. What do you have in mind?

At her question, the bodyguard hurriedly replied, “Miss Florence, since we’re going to have a meal now, should we reveal your identity and send someone to tamper with the food?”

Florence rolled her eyes and shot him a glare. “Are you trying to end someone’s life?”

This was a crucial time in the Shelton Family’s process of repairing their reputation, and if she dared to start any trouble, she could kiss her status as the heir goodbye! That was also why, despite having someone beat up Christopher, she spared his life.

The bodyguard quivered under her glare and hurriedly clarified, “No, Miss. Florence, that’s not what I meant! I was thinking we could give her some medicine to make her sick, or make something happen between her and someone else…”

At his words, Florence’s eyes instantly lit up.

“Quick, send someone to get some medication, the strongest you can replace!”

She doubted that Jonathan would still treat Angela the same way after she had gotten into a relationship with someone else. How dare she act all lovey–dovey with Jonathan in front of her? She wanted to see how long

Angela could keep up the act!

Meanwhile, Angela was completely clueless that Florence had begun plotting against her as she was currently telling Jonathan about her training that was about to end next week.

Jonathan gazed at her lovingly as he listened to her talk about her training subjects.

While she spoke, she grew aware of his intense stare and blinked awkwardly, feeling her face heat up.

“Jonathan, what are you looking at?” She hesitantly reached up to place a hand on her face, worried that it had gotten dirty.

“I’m looking at you. You’re gorgeous,” Jonathan replied gently.

Angela felt her ears burn at his reply and hurriedly ducked her head down. bashfully. She didn’t have to look into a mirror to know that her face was completely red.

“I–I…” She raised a hand to touch her burning ears and peeked at him, mumbling under her breath, “Not really…”

She was quite familiar with her appearance, and while many people praised her refreshing beauty, she was aware that she wasn’t particularly stunning as they said.

“You are,” Jonathan said firmly.

Feeling that her face might catch fire if he went on, Angela hastily cut him off, “You’re handsome too. Very handsome.”

“Yeah, that’s why we make a perfect match,” Jonathan agreed with a smile, his laughter causing her heart to skip a beat.

Confidently, she replied, “Right!”

Immediately after her reply, Angela felt her face burn. Their conversation must seem self–absorbed no matter when it occurred.

However, Oliver wasn’t able to grasp that they were only teasing each other lovingly, and upon hearing them talking about how compatible they were, he enthusiastically agreed.

“Exactly, Master Jonathan and Mrs. Lawson are a perfect match!”

Angela’s face was nearly buried into her chest, and Jonathan naturally noticed her actions as he was next to her. He knew that if he continued to praise her, his wife might be too embarrassed to even leave the car, so he hastily changed the subject.

“There’s one more week of training left. How are you preparing for the final exam?” he asked, trying his best to sound casual so that he would not pressure her any further.

Upon hearing Jonathan bring up their previous conversation, Angela relaxed.

“I’m pretty much prepared,” she nodded profusely.

A week later, after the training ended, their group would face the final exam, and they had to pass to gain the qualifications to advance to the next round.

“Do you feel confident?” Jonathan asked softly, reaching out to grasp her hand.

Angela nodded. However, she couldn’t suppress her worry deep down in her heart.

When she felt herself calm down, she looked up to Jonathan and said,

“After I pass the exam, the training camp will be next, and I’ll probably have to go overseas.”

She didn’t want to leave Jonathan, but she wanted to pursue her dreams, which left her conflicted.
