Angela, who would assist in retrieving it, remembered the expression in Florence’s eyes while Jonathan was completely focused on Angela.
He closely monitored Angela’s demeanor, wanting to ensure her safety at every moment.
Even when Angela went to the restroom, he waited nearby,
He was slightly concerned that Florence might take action, but fortunately, until the two departed from Mo’s villa halfway up the mountain, Florence did not intervene..
It wasn’t that Florence didn’t intend to act, but rather she couldn’t find the right opportunity.
Furthermore, she was preoccupied after their conversation, feeling overwhelmed.
By the time she had a moment of respite, Jonathan and Angela had already departed..
Upon learning from the staff that the two had left, Florence’s mood soured. She only felt a bit relieved when she thought she might have a chance later.

Meanwhile, Angela and Jonathan were already on their way home. Recalling the way Florence had looked at Jonathan, Angela felt a heaviness in her heart.
How could she possibly conceal her emotions from Jonathan?
Once they were in the car, Jonathan sat beside her and noticed that something was amiss. He gently inquired, “What’s wrong? Are you feeling unwell?”
Angela shook her head without responding.
Jonathan paused and asked again, “Is something troubling you?”
Angela had been fine before their arrival, but now she appeared downcast at something had occurred.
distracted, indicating that
Given that they were almost always together, and he had been vigilant throughout, Angela shouldn’t have encountered any issues.
Apart from that, it must have been something on Angela’s mind that was causing her discomfort.
Angela bit her lip, hesitated for a moment, then asked, “What do you think of Miss Shelton?”
Upon hearing Florence’s name, Jonathan furrowed his brow.
“Not very positively. His assessment was firm, surprising Angela as she looked up at him.
Observing Angela’s surprised expression, Jonathan suddenly realized the misunderstanding and sighed.
“I only have eyes for you.”
With just that statement, Angela was completely taken aback.

Believing Oliver was still in the front seat, Angela blushed, even her ears turning red.
Seeing her blushing. Oliver turned back in surprise.
Her face flushed, and Angela felt even more embarrassed. Jonathan quickly embraced her, shielding her from further embarrassment.
Angela nestled in his arms, her cheeks and ears still burning.
Inside the car, no one spoke.
Angela could hear the intense beating of their hearts as if they were playing a drum.
After a while, her emotions had yet to scul
She had thought she would feel better once they arrived home, but upon returning, Jonathan was even more unrestrained, picking her up and heading to their room.
Angela felt both bashful and flustered, yet deep down, she also felt a sense of anticipation.
However, she soon found herself unable to resist.
Upon waking up the next morning, Angela blushed once more,
Jonathan had purposely stayed home that day instead of going to the office.
Upon her awakening, he embraced her and asked, “Where would you like to go today? I’ll accompany you.”
He asked because he had learned the previous day that Angela would have a few days off after the exam. He didn’t want to miss the opportunity to spend time with her.
As for the matters at the company, he could entrust them to Spencer. If they couldn’t be delegated to him, he would address them later.
Upon hearing Jonathan’s words, Angela pondered for a moment before saying, “I don’t feel like going out. Let’s just stay at home.”
With Jonathan by her side, she had no desire to go out. It was pleasant for the two of them to stay at home together.
Jonathan didn’t push her to go out when he heard her words. Understanding Angela’s temperament, he opted to spend a peaceful day at home with her.
They spent their days warmly and happily.
On the other hand, upon waking up. Fanny only grasped Joseph’s intentions after he explained the situation to Scarlet multiple times.
Joseph intended to use her illness to calm the situation at Scarlet and prevent her from causing trouble in Riverdon.
Despite feeling uncomfortable, Fanny agreed to try to calm down and persuade Scarlet.
It wouldn’t be beneficial for her if Scarlet stirred up trouble in Riverdon.

Both Jonathan and her father were assisting her in finding a kidney donor. If Scarlet caused trouble, it would only hinder the process.
Upon entering the ward, Fanny saw Zacharias attempting to calm down Scarlet.
However, Scarlet was clearly unreceptive and even scolded Zacharias.
Seeing Zacharias’s complexion grow paler, Fanny became genuinely concerned that he might faint, so she quickly urged. “Zacharias, you should go rest. I’ll stay here with Mom.”
Zacharias was indeed exhausted. He understood that Fanny was likely there to appease Scarlet on behalf of Joseph. After giving a few instructions, he left the ward.
He was still a patient and couldn’t endure much longer.
Scarlet had recently woken up and knew that Fanny was unwell, but Joseph and Zacharias had not informed her about the need for a kidney transplant to avoid worrying her.
Now, they had no choice but to let Fanny inform Scarlet and prevent her from returning to Riverdon.
Once Zacharias left, Scarlet’s attention shifted entirely to Fanny.
At a glance, she noticed that Fanny’s face was very pale, even more so than when she had just woken up, and Fanny’s eyes were slightly red.
“Fanny, why is your face so pale? Has Joseph had a doctor properly assess your illness?” Scarlet, who had been persuaded by Zacharias earlier, was holding back her emotions. Seeing Fanny’s pale face, she became more agitated and demanded an explanation from Joseph..
Her agitation caused her to start coughing.
“Joseph had me checked by a doctor. It needs to be treated gradually.” Fanny quickly moved forward to pat her back gently, then explained softly.
Seeing Scarlet calm down a bit, she sat beside Scarlet’s bed and said slowly, “Mom, you just woke up. It’s not good to get too worked up.”
Scarlet acknowledged her condition and accepted Fanny’s words.
She softened her tone before speaking, “Fanny, I’m going back to Riverdon. You should come with me.”
Upon hearing that she still wanted to return to Riverdon, Fanny furrowed her brows and whispered, “Mom, I can’t go back to Riverdon.”
Seeing her hesitant expression, Scarlet inquired, “Why can’t you go back to Riverdon? Fanny, don’t worry. I will take you back and ensure you receive proper treatment.”
Fanny shook her head, biting her lip as she explained, “Mom, my reputation in Riverdon was tarnished because I was deceived before.
She had previously confided in Scarlet about this while she was ill, but at that time, Scarlet was disoriented and didn’t recall anything upon waking up.
Now, as Fanny brought it up again, Scarlet suddenly remembered all the things Fanny had shared while

she was ill.
Was it Angela who harmed you?” Her face twisted in disgust. “She must have taken advantage of me not being there to mistreat you!”
Fanny timidly remained silent, seemingly agreeing with her words.
“Fanny, don’t worry. I will help you seek justice,” Scarlet’s emotions surged, and she continued. “I will
urn to Riverdon first, settle matters there, and then accompany you for treatment.”
Upon hearing this, Fanny quickly advised, “Mom, you just woke up. You shouldn’t go back to Riverdon.”
“Why not?” Scarlet exclaimed, her agitation evident,
She was taken aback by Fanny’s attempt to discourage her from going back to Riverdon.
Scarlet had always treated Fammy better than George. How could Fanny side with George at a time like this?
