Chapter 1002: Chapter 1002: Miss Thompson Sent Me
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.
"Mr. Battleson, I am here to deliver documents." Saying this, Florienna stepped forward and placed the documents beside Justin.
Justin, in the office, was simply dressed in a white shirt with sleeves slightly rolled up, revealing a portion of his strong forearms.
His expression was serious, his slender fingers held a black and gold pen of considerable value. For Florienna, just a glance was enough to set her heart racing.
There was an article that had boldly stated that Justin’s entry into the business world was a loss for the entertainment industry.
With a face like Justin’s, had he actually joined the entertainment industry to act, he might well have become a top-tier celebrity by now.
Compared to the middle-aged executives in other companies, someone as dominant and handsome as Justin was truly one of a kind.
In Ainsworth City, even across the entire Druarus, how many people would want to marry Justin Battleson.
Every year, those vying and fighting to get into the Riley Group were mostly there because of Justin.
So, when Justin announced his reconciliation with Charlotte, social media crashed for hours, silently breaking countless hearts.
While Florienna was staring at Justin absent-mindedly, he had already noticed her gaze.
He looked up at Florienna, and the word "leave" that was on the tip of his tongue was hesitantly reconsidered.
After all, she was still an employee of his company.
"Once you’ve handed over the documents, leave."
His icy voice brought Florienna back to her senses, and she touched her slightly warm cheek with her hand.
Seeing that Justin’s attitude towards her wasn’t altogether dismissive, she boldly took a step closer.
But if Justin knew what Florienna was thinking, he would immediately throw out the word "leave."
"Mr. Battleson, this document needs some explanation." Florienna leaned in a bit closer to Justin, deliberately pulling down her jacket to expose her round, fair shoulders.
The strong scent of her perfume spread with her movements, and Justin smelled it, his face darkened.
Indeed, it was Charlotte’s faint scent that Justin found enchanting.
"No need. This is the last time I’m telling you, leave."
Justin had to hold his breath; he didn’t look up, and naturally, he missed Florienna’s seductive maneuver.
Florienna’s face soured, and just as Justin was about to reach for the call button on his desk, she blurted out inadvertently.
"This is exactly what Miss Thompson asked me to bring to you."
At that moment, Florienna wished she could slap herself.
How could she mention Charlotte in front of Justin, knowing that there might be some conflict between him and Charlotte?
However, after Florienna spoke, Justin’s expression actually softened a bit.
"Charlotte... Miss Thompson sent you?" Justin raised an eyebrow at Florienna.
It was just an insignificant gesture, but it caused Florienna’s heart to race.
