Flora’s Guide to a Second Chance at Love and Life novel Chapter 1181

"Mr. Connor, word has already reached the gentleman about what's gone down here, and he is absolutely livid." The old man was painfully thin, his skin hanging loosely over bones, giving him an unsettling appearance. "Master Connor, the gentleman raised you like his own son from a young age. Are you really willing to risk everything for one woman, to the point of cutting ties with him?"

"Master Connor, if it's women you want, I can bring you plenty. But her—" The old man glanced at Flora. "The gentleman has laid his claim on her."

"I only want her, my sister," Connor's hands balled into fists, his face showing a fierce determination. "I know what my adoptive father intends for her. I can promise to find him other talented people, but Flora is off-limits."

"Are you really going to defy the gentleman like this?"

Connor's right hand was in his pocket, gripping the candy Flora had given him.

He held it tightly: "Anything but Flora, I'll give him anything."

Even his own life.

He had sworn, once Flora was in his world, he'd protect her no matter what.

The old man raised his hand, and his men immediately aimed their guns.

The dark barrels pointed straight at Connor.

But Connor stood firm, shielding Flora. "Just this once, I can't follow my adoptive father's orders."

With that, he let out a sharp whistle, and a wave of bodyguards stormed in!

They formed a protective circle, completely surrounding the old man's crew!

Suddenly, the old man didn't dare make any sudden moves.

Connor's gaze softened as he looked at the young man.

No matter what, at that moment, he genuinely protected Flora.

Yet, he still couldn't forgive.

Flora bit her lip and stepped out from behind Connor: "I'll go with you."
