Francine Howards toyed with the smartphone in her hand; it was an identical model to the one Mabel Quinn had, while on the table lay another phone just like the one Kyle Kinston had.
These phones could be paired as a couple set, and they had many interesting features.
She was sowhat surprised; she didn’t expect Kyle to use sothing labeled as a "couple" item. If she hadn’t seen Mabel Quinn’s phone, she might not have thought much about it.
But the mont she picked up Mabel Quinn’s phone, she understood why he suddenly changed phones.
"You asked here just to watch you play with your phone?" The man sitting opposite Francine Howards spoke up, his face handso yet with a slightly sinister edge. Dressed in a suit, he looked like a top executive at a corporation. How many people would have guessed this was Gu Fengtian, the president of the East Bamboo Assembly?
"Is the phone nice?" Francine Howards asked, her red lips slightly parted.
"What, did you fall in love with this phone and buy two?" Gu Fengtian raised his eyebrows.
"I do quite like this phone; maybe it can help out," she said, stretching her open palm towards Gu Fengtian, "Where is the thing I asked for?"
Gu Fengtian directly grasped Francine Howards’ hand, "If I give it to you, what’s in it for ?"
"How much money do you want?" she retorted.
"Last ti I helped you, money was enough, but money isn’t always the solution."
"Then what do you want?" she frowned slightly.
"Isn’t my intention clear enough?" he said, his thumb rubbing the back of her hand, suggestively.
Francine Howards sharply pulled her hand back, stood up, and looked down coldly at the man in front of her, "Gu Fengtian, do you think you deserve it?"
Her expression revealed clear disdain.
Gu Fengtian rely smiled, appearing indifferent. This was the eldest daughter of the Howards Family, seemingly aloof and looking down on the lowly. However, he truly wanted to see what would happen if this lady one day fell into the dust.
"Consider this information my apology for offending you this ti; there’s no need for you to give anything," Gu Fengtian said, placing a docunt folder on the table, then stood up and left.
This ti, he asked for nothing, but next ti, it might not be so easy.
Francine Howards pursed her red lips, and after a mont, she opened the folder, took out a stack of docunts, and began to examine them carefully.
If Mabel Quinn were present, she would surely be shocked, as the docunts in Francine Howards’ hand contained personal information about her mother, her older brother, her friends, and colleagues...
Ultimately, Francine Howards’ gaze settled on the recent information about Mabel Quinn’s mother, Evelina. The data showed that Evelina was in severe financial trouble, frequently borrowing money and taking out loans on multiple online platforms, with many already overdue. Currently, Evelina was in a dire situation, and it wouldn’t be long before debt collection agencies ca knocking at her door.
Francine Howards quietly put the docunts back into the folder, a certain idea already forming in her mind.

Because Mabel Quinn and Alice Conley were locals, they stayed at the studio on New Year’s Eve.
