Annie Anne saw Justin Battleson talking to Charlotte Thompson with his head lowered.
Immediately, Annie's eyes widened in sudden realization.
No wonder she felt as if a cold gaze had just landed on her.
Didn't Riley Thompson say those things just to stir up trouble between Justin Battleson and Charlotte Thompson?
If she agreed to Charlotte Thompson's request at this critical moment, wouldn't Justin Battleson hold a grudge against her?
When Annie Anne looked at Campbell Prickly again, her eyes were full of gratitude.
"But it seems like Miss Thompson and Mr. Battleson have a good relationship," Campbell Prickly said softly to Annie Anne as he withdrew his gaze.
"Yeah, their relationship is very good," Annie Anne said, curving her lips, though unaware that a hint of melancholy flashed in her eyes.
Coincidentally, this emotion was caught by Campbell Prickly.
"Doesn't Miss Anne have an enviable partner herself?"
