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

The cold heel of her shoe kept tapping against Hudson's face, over and over, making his pupils dilate in sheer terror as his scalp felt like it was about to burst! "What do you want from me?" he stammered.

Crimson waved her hand, signaling the two burly men holding Hudson, and pulled out a small, gleaming knife from her pocket.

At the same time, she pressed Hudson's right hand onto the ground.

The knife was aimed right at his hand.

Hudson suddenly realized what they intended to do, his eyes wide with rage and fear. "You wouldn't dare!!!"

As soon as the words left his mouth, the knife came down on his finger.

"Ah-"

His right thumb was severed ruthlessly. Hudson clutched his bleeding hand and collapsed to the ground, trembling in agony.

"You! You! Ah!"

Cold sweat broke out on Hudson as he trembled in pain, his eyes, bloodshot and wild, fixed on Crimson with a murderous glare. He wanted to tear her apart!
