However, Allen, Walt, and Stephen didn't take it as a good sign.

In fact, they panicked and screamed in their minds.

They glanced at Anthony first to see his reaction, before they worriedly turned their heads to Francis.

What was he thinking, speaking so seriously like this? Was he blatantly going to try and steal Maria?

Of course, it wouldn't sit well with Anthony. They could just silently pray that he wouldn't be too brutal with Francis.

While they were still worried about Francis' fate, Anthony spoke calmly.

“Director Francis Jackson, right? May I ask what your business with my fiancee is?"

The expression on Francis' face didn't change much. After all, he didn't care much about Maria's personal Life, let alone her engagement. He just wanted to talk with her about the script of the Legend of Anne.

Out of politeness, he looked at Anthony and greeted, “You are Mia's fiance? Nice to meet you. But if I may, I just have something important to discuss with her. I may need to steal some of her time."

Francis' tone sounded a bit anxious but tough. It was as if he wouldn't take no for an answer.

But even so, Lyndsey could swear that this was already the most approachable tone that she ever heard from Francis.

However, these people didn't know him as much as she did. She was worried that he might have offended a powerful man without realizing it.

Lyndsey also didn't know Anthony on a personal Level, but she was a very smart woman to gauge what type of person he was.

Judging from the attitude exhibited by Allen, Walt, and Stephen toward Anthony, this man, who was sitting in the wheelchair, was definitely not someone who should be provoked.

Anthony indeed had the capacity to make things difficult for Francis on the spot.

But while Lyndsey was also worried about what might happen to Francis, Anthony suddenly smiled.

Unexpectedly, it was as gentle as the spring breeze.

“My fiancee is an independent girl. You don't need to ask for my permission if you want to talk with her about something. Besides, I trust her enough that I don't meddle with her affairs. I just support whatever she does..."

Anthony seemed to be more polite than he was supposed to be. As a result, even Francis thought that he was a nice young man.

Allen, Lyndsey, and the others also noticed what was going on. They thought that Anthony was simply doting on Maria.
