Standing at the doorway was a tall man with an imposing presence–it was Gaston.Â
Behind him stood several people who looked like assistants, each wearing an unfriendly expression.Â
Gaston’s gaze was like a blade forged in ice, shooting straight at Sandria, his eyes filled with undisguised contempt and loathing.Â
He had ordered a thorough investigation.Â
Naturally, he had also found out that Sandria would be here today to discuss a partnership.Â
In his eyes, this woman was relentlessly entangling herself with Florentino for revenge, even resorting to despicable means to get him arrested, and making Courty cry herself to sleep every night.Â
A woman this vicious didn’t deserve such a good opportunity.Â
Sandria frowned slightly, feeling rather baffled.Â
She didn’t know this man at all, nor did she have any idea where his sudden hostility was coming from.Â
Before she could say anything, Gaston strode over to her, looking down from above, his tone even more mocking.Â
“Ms. Farley, quite the tactics you have. Clinging to your ex–husband on one hand, and seducing a new sponsor here on the other. What, Florentino can’t satisfy you anymore?”Â
At these words, Zackary’s expression changed instantly.Â
He was about to speak up in rebuke, but Sandria beat him to it.Â
“Excuse me, sir, do we know each other?”Â
Her voice was soft and alluring, with a hook in it, making Gaston’s body involuntarily stiffen for a moment.Â
Sandria took half a step back, giving him a once–over from head to toe, her gaze as if appraising a commodity waiting to be sold.Â
“But, you do look decent enough, and your figure isn’t bad. If you want to pursue me, it’s not out of the question.”Â
She folded her arms and deliberately stepped closer.Â
“But you’ll have to get in line. The men who want to be my sponsor could form a queue from here all the way to Lotroenia.”Â
Since someone was insulting her for no reason, why should she be polite?Â
Gaston was completely stunned by her sudden move and those blatant, humiliating words.Â

In his thirty years of life, it was the first time a woman had ever flirted with him so brazenly in public!Â
288 VoudÂ
For the first time, a crack appeared on his perpetually icy face, and his cars flushed with a faint red he couldn’t con-Â
trol.Â
Looking at the aggressive beauty of the face so close to his, his heart actually skipped a beat.Â
“Who wants to pursue you!! I’m here to settle accounts with you, Sandria. Courty is now married to Florentino, and I hope you’ll stay away from him.”Â
Seeing his reaction, the curve of Sandria’s lips deepened.Â
Oh, so he was here to stand up for those two scumbags? Her smile grew even colder.Â
“Sir, I suggest you go back and investigate properly what kind of man your sister has set her sights on.”Â
“Tell him to mind his own business and stop pestering me. And tell her to keep her petty tricks to herself.”Â
Gaston’s face darkened completely.Â
This woman actually dared to speak to him in such a lecturing tone.Â
He was about to explode, but Zackary quickly stepped in front of him, wearing a professional but insincere smile, his words carrying an unmistakable warning.Â
“Mr. Mosley, our partnership between Skyline Technologies and Ms. Farley is none of your concern. If you have any objections to our company’s decisions, you can take it up with our boss directly.”Â
“Now please leave and do not disturb our contract signing.”Â
Skyline Technologies?Â
Gaston’s brows furrowed even tighter.Â
Of course he knew Skyline Technologies, the rising dark horse of the business world.Â
Rumor had it the boss behind the scenes was extremely mysterious, with a background so powerful it was frightening. Now was definitely not the time to provoke them.Â
In the end, he shot Sandria a cold glare, said nothing more, and turned to leave.Â
