Where Petals of Vengeance Bloom

Chapter 209

Everyone in the room stared at Sean in disbelief.

They all knew what had happened behind the scenes, though no one had witnessed it firsthand, nor did they have any evidence to accuse Sean of his actions.

Rumors had circulated about Sean's ruthless methods, but seeing him in action today, they realized the whispers didn't even come close to the reality.

Each person mentally noted to steer clear of this formidable figure, knowing full well he was not someone to be trifled with.

Sean lifted his head slightly, his icy gaze sweeping across the banquet hall, touching everyone with a chilling indifference.

Instantly, the crowd averted their eyes, fearing that meeting his cold stare might bring unforeseen calamities upon them.

In that moment, they understood profoundly that Sean, standing at the pinnacle of the Foster family's power, was utterly untouchable.

With an impassive expression, Sean waved his hand lightly, his voice calm but carrying an undeniable authority, "Take them away, send them back to Northcrest City."

Several bodyguards stepped forward immediately, dragging Yvonne and Lucas out of the banquet hall as if they were nothing more than cargo.
