Chapter 495 What a Fool, What a Waste
Florence watched the man sweating profusely, his face as pale as if he were about to faint. Then, she glared at him. “If you want to die,” she snapped, “then do so on your own time. Don’t parade your incompetence before me.”
The man quivered under her glare, struggling to maintain his composure.
He trembled as he asked, “Miss Shelton,” he stammered, “Kaydron has botched the job. Should we still proceed with sabotaging Angela’s results?”
He had previously mentioned tampering with Angela’s results but had yet to receive a clear reply from Florence. Now, he mustered the courage to ask again.
He couldn’t think of a solution besides directly tampering with the results.
When Florence learned that Angela was training and aiming to advance to the next round, she ordered them to ensure Angela couldn’t achieve her goal.
So today, Kaydron led the group to intercept Angela. He had initially planned for Kaydron to go and capture Angela, then keep her detained for half a day to make her miss the exam. But Kaydron had managed to mess it

Kaydron is simply incompetent, a waste.
He now wished he could deal with Kaydron and teach him a harsh lesson.
The man became angrier as he thought about it, especially after hearing Florence’s words. He felt even more humiliated because of Kaydron’s fault.
“It’s just a score,” Florence retorted dismissively. “Do I need to personally intervene to manipulate it?”
As the future heir of the Shelton Family, she naturally had the power to influence many things with just a word. However, she had not intended to leave any traces of her involvement in Angela’s downfall.
The man’s desperation verged on humiliation. “Miss Shelton,” he pleaded, “this failure lies with me. I misjudged Kaydron’s abilities-”
Florence cut him off with a scathing look. “Spit it out, then. What excuse do your incompetence?“. NôvelDrama.Org exclusive content.

The man’s voice grew quieter as he spoke, realizing his error. Suddenly, he mentioned, “Miss Shelton, although Kaydron messed up this time, Angela was also prepared. That’s why he couldn’t stop them.”

Angela not only did not miss the exam but also entered the exam room early. Kaydron’s failure was extraordinary.
“Are they prepared?” Florence’s cold eyes narrowed. “Are you suggesting that someone leaked information, and the other party knew in advance?”
The man considered it and nodded slightly in agreement.
Florence snorted. “Do you have evidence, or are you merely speculating?”
Though her subordinates hailed from the Shelton Family, Florence harbored suspicions of betrayal even though they wouldn’t do anything that could harm her interests.
She treated them with disdain, caring only for their usefulness, and didn’t care much about their opinions.
Now, she was a bit displeased with this person, both in her words and heart.
The man quickly denied in a trembling voice, “Miss Shelton, it’s not just my guess. It’s likely the truth.”
After saying this, he hesitated to speak further and glanced at Florence several times.
Florence impatiently kicked him with her toe. “Speak up if you have something to say.”
The man then spoke with a sense of impending doom, “Miss Shelton, Angela’s exam this time in WindMill City is different from last time. She has Jonathan accompanying her. They also had more bodyguards, so Kaydron couldn’t even delay her arrival.
Otherwise, with the dozen or so people he sent with Kaydron, they could have easily dealt with the bodyguards following Angela all the time.
“Jonathan? Has he gone to WindMill City, too?”
Upon learning that Jonathan had also gone to WindMill City with Angela, Florence’s unpleasant expression darkened even further.
The man didn’t dare to say anything, just nodded silently.
Florence’s current state frightened him. He was afraid that if he said something wrong, he would be called over by someone else to be beaten up by her.
They had basically figured out Florence’s temper from the time she returned to the country.
When she was annoyed, they should act dumb and blind.
Florence fiercely put down her leg and kicked over a small stool beside her when she saw his

nod.
The stool rolled on the ground before stopping, and Florence spoke again.

“Forget it. Go greet them in my name. Once the results are out, you hurry up and have them changed. Don’t let Angela be smug.”
As long as she thought that Angela was just going to WindMill City to take an exam, just for two days, and Jonathan went with her, she felt a surge of anger.
After all, she had specifically asked for a project from the elders of the Shelton Family to collaborate with Jonathan’s company. And the time for negotiation and cooperation was today and tomorrow.
She also made a requirement for cooperation, that Jonathan must be present during the negotiation and cooperation.
But now Jonathan accompanied Angela to WindMill City. This simply made her feel extremely resentful.
Is Jonathan giving up on our collaboration?
She had offered benefits to Jonathan, but he seemed uninterested. Florence couldn’t comprehend the hold Angela had over him.
Does Angela know that Jonathan has forsaken a beneficial project just to be with her?
If she knew, wouldn’t she be overjoyed?
Florence felt extremely depressed when thinking about how Angela would be of this.
“Why are you still standing there? Go and do it. Don’t let Angela be smug.”

After hearing Florence’s urging, the man got up from the ground. “Yes, Miss Shelton. I’ll personally keep an eye on it, and change it as soon as the results are out.”
“Change it to zero.” Florence was exasperated.
The man’s face stiffened for a moment, his steps pausing, and his lips murmuring as if he wanted to say something but dared not.
Florence didn’t pay any attention to the man’s expression at all. Seeing that he hadn’t left yet, she asked impatiently, “Why are you still standing there staring blankly?!”
Finally, the man lowered his head and said, “Miss Shelton, their results don’t have numerical values, only different grades. How about… changing Angela’s to unsatisfactory?”

Upon hearing this, she felt that this person under her command was just as foolish as Kaydron.

She gave him a fierce glare and rolled her eyes. “Stop talking nonsense. Just make sure she can’t be smug about advancing to the next round. Now hurry up and leave.”
