Chapter 467 Persuading Him
Florence felt a twinge of annoyance, deerning the encounter a waste of her time, With an eye roll, she declared, "I'm busy another day. No need for a chat."
Without bothering to gauge Spencer's reaction, she turned on her heel and departed without a second glance. A smile tugged at Spencer's lips as he watched her leave.
Meanwhile, Angela and Jonathan descended to the basement garage and boarded the car.
On the first floor, James encountered Florence's associates. Frustration was evident on his face, and he explained to Florence's bodyguard that she was in discussion with Jonathan.
After relaying this information, James attempted to depart but was once again intercepted by Florence's entourage.
James calmly explained, "Miss Shelton is in a discussion with Jonathan. They've been in contact before my arrival."
After conveying this, James attempted to depart but found himself halted once more by Florence's associates. His demeanor stiffened visibly.
"You're free to leave when she's ready," one of them stated firmly.
James suppressed his frustration and disappointment, though he felt a pang of heartache. Resigned, he chose not to cause a scene and silently took a seat beside them.
Although confined to waiting, James was permitted to use his phone. Frustratedly waiting for Florence's descent, he noticed a flurry of missed calls and messages from Hugh.
Having previously silenced his phone to avoid disruption during negotiations with Angela, he hadn't noticed until now. Upon glimpsing the messages, James' expression shifted abruptly.
He immediately called Hugh back. Although Hugh's text message had already explained the situation, there were some details he still needed to clarify.

or himself shortly after being discharged from the hospital. After a brief pause, Hugh inquired, "What's your strategy?"
James, still reeling from Angela's confrontation, felt a surge of frustration and confusion. Uncertain of his next move, he asked, "Does Fanny have any knowledge of this?"
Believing Zacharias' emotional state could be manipulated to disrupt the plan, James aimed to prevent the transplant by ensuring Fanny's lack of cooperation.
I'm not certain, but your brother has a meeting scheduled for tomorrow," Hugh informed, advising James to maintain composure until then.
Relieved that the meeting was not immediate, James saw a glimmer of hope to intervene. "Can you assist me tomorrow, Hugh?" James, reflecting on the day's events, sought support.
Hugh, always willing to lend a hand, readily agreed. "Of course. I'll meet you tomorrow." After concluding the call, James remained uneasy, unnoticed by Florence's bodyguards.

She hoped for an earlier pick-up time and for Christopher to provide reassurance. Christopher, sounding slightly impatient, continued their
conversation.
Fanny could hear other voices in the background, indicating Christopher was with friends, which made her uneasy. "Aren't you supposed to be back at school for
classes?"
Christopher, who had been joking around with friends before answering Fanny's call, lightly responded, "What can one learn at school? Fanny, have you learned
anything?"
Fanny was momentarily speechless, realizing she had no right to demand anything from Christopher. As the conversation continued, a voice teased, "Still chatting? Is it Fanny?" Christopher replied, "Yes. I'm chatting with her."
