Chapter 315 The room went dead silent.
No one expected Flora to be so gutsy. Those two slaps had everyone wincing in sympathy.
"Ms. Flora, that was uncalled for!" Yara's fans finally snapped out of it, yelling angrily, "Yara's the head of the Medical Division and has done so much for the base. Who do you think you are to humiliate her like that?" "Yeah, you accuse her of firing those shots without any proof. For all we know, it could've been you! Yara's been here forever, giving her all, and what have you done since you got here, besides being the boss' fiancée?" "Can't handle me, huh?" Flora glanced over their furious faces, "Deal with it." Colton's lips twitched. Ms. Flora... she was definitely the most unique person he'd ever met.
"Considering your contributions to Empire Base, I'll let this slide. But there won't be a next time." With that, Flora finally lifted her foot off Yara's back.
Without another word, she strode out of the Enforcement office.
It took Jason a moment to cto his senses, and he quickly sent someone to help Yara.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtColton and Lance snuck out, following Flora.
"I can't believe Yara would do something like that! Just goes to show, you can't judge a book by its cover. I used to think Yara was pretty decent," Lance babbled beside Flora, his expression exaggerated.
Flora had been feeling a bit down, but Lance's words made her feel better.
"You don't think I'm making this up about Yara?" Flora had seen it with her own eyes, yet no one believed her. Most people thought she was just causing a scene.
09:20 She got it, though. Yara had been at the base for years, and she was the new girl. Of course, they'd side with Yara.
2 She didn't need their trust. But having someone believe in her unconditionally felt great.
"Ms. Flora, you wouldn't slander anyone!" Lance's slightly chubby face puffed up, "I've not been with you long, but I know you! You wouldn't have acted against Yara if you weren't absolutely sure." "Ms. Flora, the guys at Enforcement are good people. They were rude to you, but please don't be mad. We often cback from missions all banged up, and it's Yara who heals us. So, they're protective of her." Lance kept talking while watching Flora's face carefully, worried she'd be upset or start disliking the Enforcement folks.
Colton hadn't said a word, but it was clear he believed in Flora unconditionally and hoped she wouldn't hold it against the Enforcement team.
"For Lance's sake, I won't stay mad." Flora's lips curved into a smile, "I'm heading back to the mansion. You guys should go back to Enforcement." She didn't realize she was still wearing her Taoist robe until she reached the mansion door, having forgotten to change earlier.
She walked into the mansion, spotting Connor on the sofa. Surprised at her outfit, he asked, “Why are you dressed like that?" Flora waved it off casually, "Nothing much. Just had a fight. I'm going to change." After changing, she heard a commotion downstairs.
She went down to find Zack, Jason, and Pax in the living room, with Zack looking especially furious, "Boss, Ms. Flora really crossed the line this time! Yara's done so much for the base, and everyone respects her. But Ms. Flora humiliated her in front of everyone, and now Yara can't even move!" "The base disciples are really pissed at Ms. Flora. If you don't do something, how will you keep order?" Zack was a big fan of Yara and didn't like Flora at all.
09:20 He'd felt uneasy about her before, but now he downright loathed her.
He saw Flora as nothing more than a spoiled princess.
After Zack finished speaking and saw Connor still unresponsive, he added urgently, "Boss, you didn't see the state Ms. Kaylee was in! Jason was there; he saw it too!" Caught off guard, Jason coughed awkwardly, "Ahem... Well, it wasn't all Ms. Flora's fault. Yara challenged Ms. Flora to a duel." "Duel or not, did she have to hit so hard?" Zack was livid, Yara had been beaten beyond recognition! "I think there's been a misunderstanding. Ms. Flora is the easiest person to get along with. She wouldn't hurt someone without a reason," Pax chimed in.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmZack was baffled, wondering what kind of spell Flora had cast on them. They used to dislike her as much as he did, but now they were all defending her.
He couldn't understand it, really couldn't.
Flora was just a delicate lady, what kind of charm did she possess to make them treasure her so?
Connor listened to Zack's rant impassively, his expressionunchanged until he saw Flora coming downstairs. His gaze softened as he gestured her over, "Flora, chere." Flora walked over and sat beside him.
"Why did you hit Yara?" Connor asked softly, his arm around her shoulder.
"First, she provoked me. Second, I found out she was the one who had previously hurt Lance. (Third, she has e her eyes on my man." sa "h th FindNøvel. et website on Gøøgl" to access chapters of early and in the highest quality. Flora's response was straightforward and confident, "I've already been more than fair."
Seeing her list the reasons so earnestly, Connor's eyes sparkled with amusement. Especially at her last words, his lips curved into a smile. He affectionately stroked Flora's head, "Right, I know. If our Flora had been serious, she would've been out of commission." X
