SWNOVELS Chapter 733
Connor: '
Jules: "......"
Jules never imagined Flora would say something like that. He glanced at Connor, then at Moss and Beck standing behind him. Hit him?
His old bones couldn't handle that.
"No hitting, I'm outta here."
With that, Flora turned and slipped into the car.
Connor quickly followed.
Moss floored the gas pedal, and the car zoomed away in no time.
Leaving behind a bunch of bewildered faces.
Just like that, they left?
...
Inside the car, Flora sat with a frosty expression, silent, fiddling with her phone.
"Talk to me." Connor turned to look at her, growing more anxious with every passing second of her silence.
He gently tugged at Flora's sleeve.
Flora didn't budge, still engrossed in her phone, typing something with one hand.
Connor couldn't sit still anymore. He grabbed her shoulder, turning her to face him. "Flora, please talk to me."
"It hurts."
Flora frowned, her face blank as she looked at him.
Connor immediately let go. Did he hurt her?
"Why are you so worked up?"
Flora finally spoke.
"You're ignoring me."
"Oh," Flora scoffed. "I don't want to talk to you."
Seeing Connor's eyes dim, Flora cursed internally. Wasn't she the one who was wronged? Why did it seem like she had to console him?
"I want a crispy pie from Terry's, chicken feet, pickled beef, spicy chicken! And a Coke!"
Connor was momentarily stunned, then quickly nodded. "Okay!"
Flora felt a knot in her chest, but she
el?
wasn't truly angry. The more Abbey tried, the clearer it was that Connor wasn't interested in her. With a man as outstanding as hers, it was normal for others to fancy him. If she got mad every time, she'd be furious all the time.
...
Back at the villa, Flora dashed into her room and locked the door.

I don't want to see you."
Man villa, Flora dashed into.
Connor: "......"
She was definitely still mad.
He turned and went downstairs, where Moss and Beck stood in the living room, eyes wide and staring at him.
They had seen the whole thing; the boss didn't even get through the door...
If the boss was this henpecked, what were they going to do?
Connor stood in front of them, his voice icy. "About Abbey, I need you to handle something for me."
That woman needed a lesson.
"Yes, sir!"
Moss and Beck nodded eagerly. After hearing Connor's plan, they both inhaled sharply.
True to form, the boss didn't hold back!
Just as they were about to leave, Moss's phone rang. It was from Empire Base.
"Boss, we have a problem! Our defense system was breached by that bastard Lando!"
"Boss, our supplies got hijacked by Club 257. We couldn't stop them!"
"Boss, our guys got beat up by Club 257! They didn't even say a word, just beat them black and blue!"
"Boss, did you do something to upset Ms. Flora?"
The four leaders on the phone yelled, each louder than the last!
...
Club 257's group chat was blowing up.
Flora sat on her bed, scrolling through message after message, her head pounding.
That big mouth Jules.
He'd spilled the beans so fast.
Crimson and Rafael, they were all ready to go on the warpath!
"Who does that woman think she
President, don't worry, we've a

sent people to deal with that wench!"
"We'll show her why the flower is so red!"
"President, men are no good! Look at us! We're all your fangirls, President!"
