Chapter 383 He’s Not As Handsome As You
He couldn’t bear to watch Christopher stuttering and hesitating, so he bluntly stated, “Your brother has offended our Miss Hurry over here, apologize to our Miss, and take this useless brother of yours away.”
Jonathan inquired, “Offended your Miss? Who is she?”
The man glanced at Florence, who was listening in on speakerphone, and handed her the phone as Jonathan repeated his question. Florence casually replied, “It’s me, Miss Florence Shelton,” and then abruptly ended the call, tossing the phone onto Christopher.
Christopher, hit by the phone, realized the conversation had ended abruptly and worriedly asked, “Why did you hang up? What if my brother
“Are you worried he won’t come?” Florence mocked. “If he doesn’t show up today, he’ll have to deal with your dead body tomorrow.”
Christopher shuddered in fear. She dismissively assured, “If your brother is smart, he’ll come once he hears the Mo family name.”
Christopher wanted to say more but stopped upon seeing her growing impatience.
The man, sensing Florence’s annoyance, kicked Christopher and snapped, “Enough talk. If we beat you badly enough, won’t he have to come?”
Christopher felt helpless. He had intended to seek help from his brother, but the man’s threatening words had potentially jeopardized that. What if Jonathan thought he was complicit with these people?
His fear intensified, but he remained silent, relieved when Jonathan finally arrived.
When Jonathan entered, Christopher was as pitiful as a beaten dog, trying to make himself as small as possible.

They didn’t appear to be there for a rescue mission, but rather to stir up trouble.
Christopher, seeing Jonathan, scrambled up, seeking refuge.
“Jonathan… you finally arrived.”
Despite his battered appearance, he seemed much more spirited than before.
Florence clicked her tongue, ready to mock Christopher, but then she caught sight of the man he referred to as Jonathan.
For a moment, she was taken aback.
This man was undeniably handsome, she thought to herself, unable to resist commenting. “So you’re Christopher’s brother? You two don’t look alike at all; he’s not as handsome as you.”

dragged him back first, unceremoniously dropping him at her feet.
“What did he do to warrant such treatment. Miss Shelton?” Jonathan inquired, not sympathizing with Christopher but needing to clarify the situation.
Florence, lounging confidently, replied. “Your brother offended me, and my men took offense. I’m still angry, if you apologize for him. maybe I’ll feel better, and my men will stop”
Her gaze lingered on Jonathan, appreciating his calm, imposing presence.
Jonathan, uncomfortable under her scrutiny, pressed, “How exactly did he offend you?”
She chuckled and shook her head slightly, glancing at Christopher. “Let him explain himself.” Terrified by her. Christopher began to panic, “I was wrong, I was wrong!”
Jonathan looked at Christopher with a furrowed brow.
“If Miss Shelton insists on an apology, I’ll leave my brother in your hands.”
