Meanwhile, Florence was taken aback. This was the first time she had been refused so rudely.

“Why do | have such a disobedient son?” Florence murmured under her breath, her hands trembling in anger. But she could not refute what had just been said.

Take the necklace back immediately!” “Yes, madam.” The butler hurried forward to take the box from Grady, and Grady didn’t resist this time.
Since Loraine had refused him, he had no reason to give her the necklace.
But before the butler could leave, Florence stopped her. “Wait.
