Justin Battleson, who was processing documents, noticed someone come in without knocking. His brows, already tightly furrowed, didn't relax in the slightest.
But Justin thought it might be Charlotte Thompson.
However, when he looked up and saw it was Florienna Ellis, his expression instantly turned sour.
And yet, as Florienna caught Justin looking up at her, a flash of joy crossed her face.
"Mr. Battleson..."
"Don't you know to knock?" But before Florienna could finish, Justin interrupted her.
"Get out."
Justin's voice was cold and detached.
Florienna felt as though a bucket of cold water had been dumped over her, and Justin's attitude only made her more certain that something had transpired between him and Charlotte.
Now, Justin must despise Charlotte immensely—it was a golden opportunity for her to move up.
Seducing Justin was something Florienna had contemplated for a long time, but she had never found the right moment. Now it seemed fortune was on her side.
