Flora’s Guide to a Second Chance at Love and Life novel Chapter 599

"Just say it already, what do we need to do to get your help?"

Everyone was on the brink of losing it, eyes burning with frustration as they stared at Flora, begging her to be clear and straightforward.

Flora lounged back in her chair, lazily lifting her gaze to meet theirs. She didn't utter a word, just absently tapped a knife on the table.

Her silence only ramped up their anxiety.

"Are you really going to just watch us die?"

A young man, holding his brother tightly, glared at Flora, his eyes bloodshot with anger. Sure, they'd messed up before, but his brother was dying now!

She had the power to save them, but she was choosing not to!

"Let's get real here. Who almost got you killed? It wasn't Ms. Flora. Whoever wronged you, go chase them down," Lance chimed in, hands on his hips. "So what if Ms. Flora is powerful? Who says she owes you a rescue?"

His frustration grew as he spoke, "When Crimson's Vice President was on the verge of death, what did you do? Nothing. And now, you have the nerve to guilt-trip Ms. Flora?"

Realizing their own mistakes, the representatives from the various factions fell silent. They had indeed wronged Crimson badly.

Unable to argue back, they turned their furious eyes toward Mr. Atticus.

Now, they were blaming Mr. Atticus in their hearts!

"I don't care! If anything happens to my brother, I'll make sure you pay, even if it costs me my life!"

Seeing his brother in pain, the young man broke into tears.

"I might consider saving him, but..."

Just then, Flora finally spoke.

All eyes turned to her, hope flickering in their desperation.

"But I have conditions," Flora said, leaning back, lazily lifting her eyelids. "First, everyone must sign an agreement. What happens on this island stays on this island. Not a word about it outside."
