Flora was completely unfazed when Crimson kicked Mr. Atticus and his medical crew out. The medical organization was notorious for getting into trouble. But to rile Crimson up this much? They must’ve really stepped in it.
That night, the island was hit by a torrential downpour. Mr. Atticus and his team had flown in, but now, with the weather grounding all flights, they were stuck. Crimson wouldn’t let them into the main hall, so they had to huddle under the eaves, barely shielded from the relentless rain.
It was winter, and the night air was frigid. The biting wind, mixed with rain, cut to the bone. Mr. Atticus shivered uncontrollably. Inside, the hall was alive with music and dancing, a stark contrast to their cold, hungry misery outside.
The more Mr. Atticus thought about it, the more his anger flared.
When Flora, Connor, and Howell arrived, they saw Selene and her group shivering under the eaves.
"Is that her?" Howell raised an eyebrow, surprised to see Selene.
She was part of the medical organization? Flora didn’t care about the organization; her focus was on Selene. She pursed her lips and told Howell, "Go, bring Selene in."
With that, Flora strode into the main hall, Connor following closely.
Howell grabbed an umbrella from a staff member and headed towards the corridor.
"Mr. Atticus, the folks at Club 257 have gone too far!" Susan was stomping her feet to keep warm. "They’re completely ignoring us, ignoring the medical organization! If we let this slide, how can we maintain our standing among the major powers?"
"Soon..." Mr. Atticus replied, his voice barely audible. Soon, they’d be the ones begging.
"We can’t let S off the hook. Crimson wouldn’t have acted without his approval!" Susan continued.
Selene, who had been quiet, frowned at the mention of S. "Sister, this might not have anything to do with him. Although he’s the president of Club 257, he hardly gets involved."
