Chapter 226


    In Jordan’s eyes, no matter how good Séraphine’s medical skills were, she was just a frence


    doctor–no power, no prestigious family background, hardly a threat.


    “Séraphine took this deal solely for Queen Algria’s sake, with Club 257 vouching for her in the


    middle. Did you ever consider what would happen if you turned on us? Could you withstand Club


    257’s wrath?”


    Mentioning Club 257 made Jordan hesitate for a moment, but he quickly regained his lofty


    demeanor. He didn’t believe Club 257 would go against the Bryant family over someone like


    Séraphine. As for Queen Algria, a few sweet words would smooth things over. Besides, they could


    detain Séraphine without a trace, unbeknownst to anyone.


    “Séraphine, I don’t want things to get ugly. Just agree to join us, work for us, and I’ll let you go,”


    Jordan smiled. “In turn, I’ll use the Bryant family’s resources to elevate your status.”


    “Get lost.”


    Crimson’s fiery temper red, and she grabbed Flora’s hand, striding towards the door. The


    bodyguards, upon receiving a signal from Jordan, suddenly drew their guns from their belts!


    Jordan’s deep voice followed them, “Séraphine, we truly don’t want to harm you, but if you take


    another step, I can’t guarantee what will happen to yourpanion.”


    Flora stopped in her tracks, her eyes reddening and a terrifying intent to kill emerged.


    “Damn it.” Crimson cursed under his breath. The Bryant family had always had a notorious


    reputation, but considering he had once saved her cousin’s daughter, they owed him a favor, which


    was why Flora was here for treatment in the first ce. But this time, the Bryant family was going


    too far!


    Flora stopped, and Jenny approached them gleefully.


    “Weren’t you so proud a moment ago? It seems you knew fear after all.” Jenny mocked, “So what if


    you’re a miraculous healer? You’re still at our mercy now!”


    Her hand still ached, fueling her rage against Flora.


    “Thinking you’re so tough? Let’s see if you dare to keep that attitude now!” Jenny raised her hand to


    p Flora.


    “Jenny!” Jordan’s expression changed dramatically. Jenny was no match for Flora!


    Flora remained still, watching Jenny’s descending hand, her pupils shrinking with a burst of chilling


    intent. Her slender arm rose, catching the woman’s wrist precisely. This time, Flora showed no


    mercy, kicking Jenny’s knee, causing her to half–kneel in agony. Flora’s grip tightened, and the next


    second, the sound of bones breaking mixed with the woman’s screams filled the room.

    The bodyguards were stunned, and Crimson seized the opportunity. He moved behind the nearest


    bodyguard, striking him in the neck with his elbow, then taking his gun as the guard was


    incapacitated.


    “Don’t move!” Before the other bodyguards could react, Crimson aimed the gun at Jenny’s head.


    “Anyonees closer, and I’ll blow her brains out!”


    Jenny was so nervous her pores seemed to explode. “You can’t touch me! If anything happens to


    me, you won’t make it out either!” Crimson smirked, his finger casually on the trigger, “Why don’t


    we see if we can make it out after I shoot you.”


    Jenny was terrified, every hair on end. The woman’s voice was cold, filled with deadly intent; she


    had no doubt that Crimson would pull the trigger.


    “Séraphine, if you so much as touch my daughter, you won’t be able to leave.”
