Chapter 61: Chapter 61: Unaware of Catching Adultery
She went to her bedroom, pushed open the door of the walk-in closet, where a spacious array of clothes and jewelry were neatly displayed, and at the very front was a wall showcasing her watch collection.
She had kept Ethan Harper’s belongings that he hadn’t taken with him; he loved watches, and over the years, everything Florence Fuller fancied, she would buy for him.
She opened a small box in the center, inside was a red velvet box, and she opened it to reveal a diamond ring, identical to the one Ethan Harper wore on his finger.
She hadn’t taken it out to look at in a long time. The diamond ring had a sophisticated and extraordinary design; she didn’t know when Ethan Harper bought it, but it fit her ring finger perfectly. Ethan gave her the ring, asked if she was willing, she thought he was going to put it on her, but instead, he extended his hand in front of her, indicating her to take out the male version and put it on him.
Florence Fuller, surprised but cooperative, put it on him. He seemed very satisfied and then put the female version on her.
However, at that time, she didn’t dare to wear it. After trying it on, she kept it away, while he, once he put it on, was never seen taking it off.
Leaning against the cabinet, she cradled the ring in her hand, looking at the wall of watches, slowly closing her eyes.
——
Approaching a trip to Cloudsea City, Florence Fuller had been dealing with important company documents these past two days.
When Evelyn Shaw called, Florence Fuller had just finished a meeting.
"Florence, are you done with work?" Evelyn’s voice had a rare trace of freedom, "I’ve finally got a day off, and Christopher asked if the few of us want to have a meal together today."
Florence Fuller had nothing else planned: "Sure."
"Alright, I’ll go and... hey!" Evelyn’s voice halted suddenly, and Florence heard her fall silent, "What’s up?"
"Am I seeing things?" Evelyn seemed to murmur to herself, said ’wait a second’ over the phone, then there were footsteps, and soon, Florence heard Evelyn’s astonished voice, "Oh my, my brother is dating."
Florence Fuller was puzzled: "Huh?"
"I’ll send you a photo."
Evelyn sent the photo quickly, and Florence opened it, her eyes involuntarily widening.
The photo was clear; Chloe Quinn and Charles Shaw were sitting side by side, Charles appeared to be working on a laptop, while Chloe leaned on his arm with a smile.
"Where are you now?" Florence asked her.
Evelyn checked, "A café."
"Send me your location, I’ll come over, wait for me and don’t disturb them," Florence said, promptly hanging up and grabbing a jacket to head out.
Zomerton coincidently came to deliver something to Lily Lancaster, bumping into her: "President Fuller, are you going out?"
"Yeah, by the way, why haven’t I seen Chloe today."
"President Quinn is on a business trip."
"Oh." Florence gave him a meaningful look, "Alright."
Zomerton inexplicably felt a chill down his spine.
Florence arrived quickly, catching Evelyn still secretly observing when she suddenly tapped her on the shoulder, startling her.
Evelyn was caught off guard: "You got here so fast."
"I was just around here," Florence’s gaze turned towards the interior of the café, from this position, Chloe Quinn and Charles Shaw had their backs to them.
"Shall I treat you to coffee?" Florence looked at Evelyn.
Evelyn widened her eyes: "We are going in?"
"What else did I come over for?" Florence pulled her, ready to go in.
"But..." Evelyn tugged on her arm, "My brother said after that incident at the hospital, you haven’t been answering his calls or texts. Now you’re looking for him..."
"Who said I’m looking for him." Florence raised an eyebrow slightly, "I’m looking for that woman."
"Ah!" Evelyn was even more puzzled, "Florence, it’s hard for my brother to be dating anyone. Let’s just observe for a while?"
"Why can’t he date someone else?" Florence looked at the two inside the café, "Why does it have to be with Chloe Quinn?"
"You know that woman?"
"A friend." Florence said as she pushed open the door and walked in, Evelyn quickly followed her, glancing over at Charles Shaw...
And made eye contact...
Oh no...
Charles was stunned, and when Chloe Quinn saw Florence coming, she quickly stood up, coughing lightly, "Um... I still have work at the office..."
Charles Shaw held onto her hand, "It was fine just now but work now?"
Chloe Quinn laughed awkwardly, "I just remembered."
But Charles didn’t let go, "What are you nervous about?"
"I’m not." Chloe Quinn watched as Florence walked over, growing more uneasy.
Florence knew exactly what kind of person she was.
But she had barely managed to steady Charles Shaw, if Charles asked any questions, wouldn’t her efforts be wasted?
"Florence." Charles greeted first as she approached.
Florence glanced at him, her gaze settling on Chloe, "President Quinn, a business trip to a café, huh?"
Chloe Quinn: "..."
Sweating like a waterfall, sister.
"I don’t remember our company having any partnership with DN Dawn’s streamers, right?" Florence looked at her leisurely, "How did you two end up together?"
Chloe Quinn: "Just happened to meet..."
"It’s not just a coincidence." Charles Shaw clasped Chloe’s hand, intertwining their fingers without any hesitation, "We’re on a date here."
Evelyn secretly covered her face, her brother’s straightforwardness was just... seriously...
"A date~" Florence murmured, grabbing Chloe’s hand, "Come out with me."
"Not like this, sister..."
Although there weren’t many people in the café, their actions still drew attention from others inside: "To those who don’t know, they’d think you’re here to catch a cheater. Be friendlier."
"Sure." Florence sat down unabashedly, looking at Charles Shaw, "We can talk right here, about your..."
"Hey hey!" Chloe Quinn halted her with a look, quickly pulling at Florence’s hand, "Let’s talk outside."
Charles Shaw’s gaze shifted from Florence to Chloe, and he pursed his lips, his face turning grim.
"We’ll be back soon..." Chloe looked at Charles’s already unhappy expression but knew she had to resolve things with Florence first.
"Little sister." Chloe Patti patted Evelyn’s shoulder, "Keep your brother company, order whatever you want, put it on my tab."
Evelyn looked dumbfounded.
How did this woman know she was Charles’s sister? But thinking about it, she probably figured it out, knowing her brother, the honest straightforward guy would’ve said it.
The two of them found a secluded spot around the corner of the café, Chloe was puzzled, "How did you know we... were here?"
Florence snorted, "When did you two start seeing each other!"
Chloe was a bit embarrassed, "Just... later on..."
"I told you not to provoke Charles Shaw, right?" Florence said seriously.
"Why are you still doing this?"
