Chapter 291
The man held the check worth two hundred million, licking his chapped lips. “That’s quite a haul.”
The boss of Enforcement chuckled dryly.
“You all can go now,” the man said, slipping the check into his jeans pocket.
“Alright, alright,” the boss of Enforcement quickly instructed his team to move the goods and leave.
Colton and Lance, well aware of the man’s nature, immediately positioned themselves to shield Flora as the mercenaries emerged.
But then Yara suddenly spoke up, “Ms. Flora, be careful.”
It was only then that the man noticed the young woman in the crowd.
“Hold on!” he shouted, his eyes narrowing wickedly as they landed on Flora, protected by Colton and Lance. “You all can leave, but this pretty lady stays.”
The mercenaries behind him grinned evilly.
The boss of Enforcement cursed inwardly. He knew it–being too pretty was a curse in their line of work.
Forcing a smile, he said, “Gentlemen, she’s our boss‘ fiancée. If we don’t bring her back, our boss will kill us.”
The man licked his teeth, his eyes never leaving Flora. “A fiancée’s not a wife. If she’s gone, you can always
The boss of Enforcement cursed silently again but kept smiling. He pulled out another check from his pocket. “Brother, how about this…”
find another.”
This time, the man refused, his patience wearing thin. “I don’t want money. Do you think we’re short on cash? We’ve been out here for months without a woman’s touch. Either the pretty lady stays, or none of you leave.”
The mercenaries behind him jeered, “Don’t be scared, beauty, we’ll treat you real nice!”
Flora’s sunhat was tilted down, hiding her eyes, only her tightly pursed lips visible. A chill seemed to spread over her.
“Gentlemen, let us go today, and I personally bring some women over tomorrow. Deal?” The boss of Enforcement’s face was turning sour with frustration.
“Who do you think you’re fooling? I was being nice because I respected you. I want that woman; she looks feisty enough. I don’t want anyone else!”
The man’s temper flared, and he swiftly drew a gun, pointing it at the boss of Enforcement’s head.
“Boss!” The Empire Base team quickly pulled out their pistols.
Seeing this, the mercenaries did the same.
Both sides were on edge, ready to erupt.
The boss of Enforcement’s face darkened. A head–on clash would mean casualties, something he wanted to avoid. But giving Flora up wasn’t an option.
Even though he didn’t like Flora, she was his boss‘ fiancée, and he had to take her back safely.
Just as the boss of Enforcement prepared for a fight, Flora stepped out from behind Colton and Lance.
-Her stunning beauty was exposed under the scorching sun. The mercenaries felt a tightening in their stomachs, their throats dry as they
instinctively licked their lips, eyes burning with desire.
“Ms. Floral Colton and Lance’s expressions changed, shocked by Flora’s bold move.
Under the blazing sun, Flora’s face remained calm, her clear eyes fixed on the man, her voice cool. “I’ll go with you, just let them go.” The man paused, then laughed, his facial scar twisting grotesquely.
The girl had spirit, and he liked that:

“Come over here, then I let him go, the man said, licking his teeth.
He was wary of the Empire Base folks. Both sides had guns, and if things went south, no one was coming out unscathed
Hearing this, Flora started walking towards him.
“Ms. Flora!” Colton and Lance quickly grabbed her hand.
Flora turned slightly, a small, confident smile playing on her lips. “Don’t worry”
With that, she skillfully broke free from their grasp Colton was taken aback, vividly recalling how Florn had taken down the Red Scorpions in their last underground fight. She was a force to be reckoned with…
His hand hung in mid–air, frozen.
“Ms. Flora! Don’t come over here!” The Enforcement leader, eyes wide with disbelief, couldn’t fathom Flora risking herself for him. She absolutely couldn’t get hurt!
