Lover

Half an hour later, Florence saw her niece Pamela in an upscale suite of the Oasis Hotel in Orange County.

In all fairness, Pamela was indeed very beautiful. She had a pair of large eyes, a pointed chin, and fair, supple skin. Her appearance was typical of many Howards.

Moreover, she was in her prime at only 25 years old.

But Florence and Pamela didn't have many opportunities to meet in the past because Pamela had spent four years in college and a couple more years in graduate school abroad. She had only returned to the US a few months ago, so there had been barely any interaction between them.

"Aunt Florence."

The two met at the entrance of the hotel suite, and Pamela merely greeted Florence lightly before letting her in without saying anything further.

She also knew Florence's purpose for taking her to California, but the highly educated Pamela absolutely couldn't accept a marriage alliance.
