Flora’s Guide to a Second Chance at Love and Life novel Chapter 226

Chapter 226 

In Jordan’s eyes, no matter how good Séraphine’s medical skills were, she was just a freelance 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 flared, 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 your companion.” 

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 place. 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 slap 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.
