Chapter 157 Nordmare's Underground Queen

Connor had no idea that he was in grave danger.

He believed that Daphne was simply confused by Robin's deceitful words.

With a self-righteous demeanor, he pointed at Robin and continued, "This guy is a fraud! Do you know how many women have fallen for his tricks?

"A few days ago, he went out with several women, flirting and having fun!

"If I don't warn you today, you'd only be getting deeper into trouble!"

Daphne's brows furrowed slightly as she shot Connor a cold glare. She warned. "It seems you really are sick of living! I don't feel like killing anyone today, so get out!" Connor found her words amusing

These wealthy girls often made threats of violence, but their words were empty.

He didn't take it to heart.

However, Connor began to feel a bit irritated by Daphne's lack of gratitude.

fun

He puffed out his chest, feigning anger. "Miss, I'm trying to help you here! How rude of you to tell me to leave and wish me dead!

"Do you even know who he really is?

"He's nothing but a scoundrel out to cheat you of your money and affection!"

Robin raised an eyebrow and glanced at Connor, choosing to remain silent

He wanted to see just how Connor planned to meet his end today.

Daphine was a name well known in Harmonfield, yet few had seen her in person, especially at such close quarters.

A person of Connor's standing could hardly claim that privilege.

He would have likely been kneeling before Daphne in terror if he had recognized her identity.

"Miss, you should speak to me with a bit more respect Connor insisted, still in his condescending tone.

"Otherwise, I might get angry!

"What we lack in today's society are people like me, willing to stand up for what's right!

"Tin helping you right now; you need to understand that! Without me, you might fall right into this fraud's

trap!"

At Connor's words, Daphne's icy demeanor momentarily melted into a captivating smile.

Those who knew Daphne understood that her smile could be far more dangerous than her frown. If she smiled at you, your death might not be far behind

"Very well, you dare to claim I have upset you? Show me your anger then Dapline purred, her playful grin almost sending Commor into a fit of laughter.

Taking a deep breath, Connor faked calmness. "You truly don't know how to distinguish good from bad, do you! I've been trying to help you this entire time, yet you think I'm deceiving yout You're so disappointing."

Connor had barged into the private room with unwavering confidence, determined to expose Robin's facade before Daphine,

Connor was momentarily stunned.
