Arthur saw that Rita did not take it, so he put the envelope directly on the tea table and pushed it in the direction of Rita. He said in a calm tone, "Baird hopes you can keep a distance from Nelson."

Heh.

To let her keep a distance from Nelson?

He even asked his assistant to tell her? It's very similar to the time when Emma sent Laurel away.

Therefore, even if she didn't open the envelope now, Rita probably knew what was in it.

"Take it back!"

"Miss Esther."

"I agree!" She would keep a distance from Nelson, but she would not take anything from him now.

Why?...
