She didn't bother arguing with Flora. Instead, she looked at Connor with eyes brimming with unshed tears, her
voice edged with hurt. "Connor, | swear, | didn't..." "Shut up!"
Connor's demeanor turned icy, like a frigid wind that seemed to freeze the very air. The people around felt a
heavy tension settle over them, making it hard to breathe. "Are you deaf?" His voice sliced through the room like
a knife, causing Rory to flinch in alarm.
"The lady told you to throw them out. Didn't you hear?"
"I heard, | heard..." Rory, sweating and terrified, quickly barked, "Get Sydney and Kenneth out of here, now."
"But not just them," Connor added.
Rory tensed, and then Connor's voice cut through again, "Her too."
Following Connor's steely gaze, Rory saw Tara.
"Get her out too. She's an eyesore, absolutely revolting."

His voice was as cold as a winter's chill, piercing Tara's heart like a dagger. She shook with the pain of it.
Connor called her an eyesore, revolting? After all these years of loving him, this is how he repaid her!
How could he be so heartless?
The room was so silent you could hear a pin drop. No one dared to breathe too loudly.
On one side was the cherished daughter of the Roth family, and on the other, the most powerful figure in the
Martial World. Neither was someone you wanted to cross. Rory didn't have tto worry about Tara's status. The
boss was furious, and they needed to move fast!
"Miss Tara, I'm sorry for this!"
He grabbed her by the collar, hoisted her up, and tossed her out.
Sydney and Kenneth followed, thrown out with equal force.
The sound of their bodies hitting the ground echoed loudly, leaving them in utter disgrace.
Tara didn't feel the physical pain; the ache in her heart was far more excruciating. How could Connor be so cold
to her...
Flora glanced at Connor with a satisfied nod. Well, Connor was playing along nicely.
Ah, having such a handsman was a double-edged sword; there was always someone eyeing him.
The room remained in dead silence.
Everyone kept their heads down, too scared to even whisper.
Worried that if Connor got annoyed, they'd be the next ones thrown out.
"That was sick, damn!"
In the middle of the silence, an unexpected voice burst out.
Jacob couldn't hold it in any longer!
He was buzzing with excitement, every part of him alive with thrill, missing the shocked stares from everyone

Connor and Flora turned their attention to him. Nearby, Joey and Gerald tensed up.
"Sir, my son's been spoiled, don't take it to heart," Gerald said nervously, stepping forward. They didn't know
Connor's real name; in the Martial World, he was just "Sir."
Connor and Flora stayed silent.
As Gerald and Joey fretted, they saw Flora slowly making her way over.
His heart skipped a beat!
Was she going to do something to Jacob?
Just moments ago, she'd been fiercely defiant, tossing Tara out like it was nothing. It seemed that coming from
the Mortal World, Flora knew how to be more obedient and sensible.
