Chapter 197


    She took a step forward, moving towards them.


    Upon seeing her approach, the two girls were so frightened their legs trembled. They were unable


    to run away. It was as if their legs) were nailed to the ground.


    However, Flora was always one to show mercy. Since the two girls hadn’t caused her any real


    harm, she decided not to pursue the matter further. She walked up to them, her tone surprisingly


    amiable, almost negotiating. “Lend me that stick you’re holding.”


    The girls were already scared stiff, not daring to move an inch. Flora simply took the stick from their


    hands and turned around, leisurely watching the three drenched figures struggling in the water.


    Whenever one of the three was about toe out of the pool, she’d give a swing of the stick. She


    always controlled her strength, only intending to cause pain, not injury


    Flora squatted down, tapping the stick in her right hand against her left palm.

    Far from the haughty airs they held in the living room, Millie floundered in the water


    ke drowned rats.


    Flora watched her with a smile. “Honey, men are jerks, especially the ying types. They deserve a


    good kick.”


    “Look at you, pretty and from a good family. Why put all your eggs in one basket? That man is not


    worth your time.


    “Ladies, why do we make it hard for each other? We’re already at a disadvantage. When we’re


    faced with a jerk, we should band together, not turn on each other.”


    Still smiling, Flora continued, “Let’s call it even today. But if you bother me again, I won’t be so


    kind.”


    After saying this, Flora kindly helped Millie up before turning to leave.


    Millie couldn’t swallow her pride. She watched Flora’s retreating figure and charged at her, trying to


    catch her!


    Just as she was about to touch Flora, Flora deftly sidestepped, but unfortunately, Flora stepped on


    the stick on the ground and stumbled backward.


    Flora quickly steadied herself, trying not to look too bad even if she fell.


    But then, her back bumped into a wall of muscle.


    The man wrapped his arms tightly around her. The familiar scent of mint enveloped her, and Flora


    turned to see Connor’s tense jaw.


    “Connor!” Flora eximed joyfully.

    see themotion The doors burst open, and a crowd poured out. There were Raul, Henrik, and a


    bunch of guests eager The girls, dressed scantily for the sake of appearance, were now almost fully


    exposed after getting soaked. The colors of their undergarments were painfully apparent. Some of


    the younger men couldn’t help but swallow hard before gentlemanly averting their


    gazes.


    Millie’s father quickly took off his suit jacket and draped it over her


    “Daddy, it’s all Flora’s fault!” Millie sobbed, “She pushed me and my friends into the pool and hit us


    with a stick! Daddy, you must seek Justice for your daughter!”


    Her father always doted on her, so Millie thought she would surely persuade him to punish Flora


    with her tears. After all, the Irving family was of no significant standing and was unworthy of fear.


    However, after hearing her story, her father shouted, “Shut up!”


    Walker was beside himself with rage. Of all the people Millie could have provoked, she had to mess


    with Connor’s fiancée.
