Chapter 317 The Flower Messenger

• Seeing Landon look like that, Celia Jeane couldn’t help it—she burst out laughing. But to smooth over his little mood, she told both Justin Howard and Landon what she’d learned that afternoon about Yvonne Shaw and her husband.
• “That home‑wrecker’s got to be a gold‑digger. She stole Yvonne’s husband because he’s loaded, so now she won’t let go. Landon’s handsome and rich—of course she’ll look his way. He’s perfect for this job.” Celia laid out why Landon should be the one to handle it.
• Hearing that, Landon did enjoy the part where his sister‑in‑law called him handsome, but he still pushed back: “Sis, my good looks are universally acknowledged, sure. But I’m not going. Nope, not going.” As he spoke, he tilted his face up toward the chandelier like, I don’t know anything. I saw nothing. Playing dumb, full send.
