Chapter 231

Jordan’s change in attitude toward Flora didn’t catch her off guard.

Rubbing her delicate, pale wrists, she leaned against the wall, her head tilted slightly as she looked at him, speaking in a casual tone, “I think it’s pretty nice here. I don’t plan on leaving yet.”

“No, no, no!” Jordan’s face went pale with fear. “Séraphine, please, have mercy on me…”

If she stayed, the folks from Club 257 and Ruby Path would definitely come down hard on the Bryant family!

Crimson felt a wave of satisfaction at his reaction. “Ever heard the saying, ‘It’s easy to invite the devil in but hard to send him away? You wouldn’t let us leave before, and now we’re not going anywhere.”

“It’s all my fault. Please, I beg you, just give me a break… I’ll personally see you out of the Bryant family. How about that?”

Now, Jordan had lost all his pride. Though he still felt a burning resentment, the thought of Flora’s powerful backers made him desperate to get rid of this hot potato as soon as possible.

Leaving just like this? That’d be letting him off too easily.

Crimson’s eyes flicked to a corner where a whip lay, her eyelids lowering slightly. It was with that whip that he’d almost hurt Flora.

“Bring me that whip.”
