Chapter 91
Tucker’s interest was piqued the moment he saw her, It was the first time he had witnessed a girl remain calm and collected when surrounded by a group of men.
“You are from the Irving family.”
“My family is very wealthy and has a high status in Cedarvale.”
“But, the Irvings have no say in our street matters. Tucker chuckled, speaking brazenly, the tattoos on his arms giving him a fierce look. “Ah Flora said casually. “You know Baker, right?”
Tucker was taken aback, not expecting to hear the name Baker from a student.
“Tucker, this girl knows our boss‘ name! One of the underlings couldn’t help but speak up.
A flicker of something crossed Flora’s eyes. So, they were under Baker’s command.
She twirled her wrist. “I seem to recall Baker mentioning that one of his rules is not to mistreat women. Seems like you guys don’t listen well.”
She didn’t mind teaching them a lesson on Baker’s behalf.
“You know Baker?” Tucker frowned, unsettled by Flora’s demeanor, but he also found it absurd that she would know him.
“He calls me ‘sister” Flora stated eamestly, but upon hearing this, Tucker and his crew couldn’t help but burst into laughter.
*Ha! Tucker, did you hear that? She said Baker calls her ‘sister!”
“Has she lost her mind because of fear?”
Tucker and his crew mocked openly. What Flora said sounded like a joke to therm
“Tucker, I think she just overheard Baker’s name somewhere and decided to play along”
Tucker smirked, his gaze mocking as he looked into Flora’s eyes. “Sweetheart, you must’ve had a hard time coming up with such a story. I’m all for chivalry, so as long as you play nice with us, we won’t hurt you”
Flora remained silent, pulling out her phone from her purse to call Baker
But before she could dial, the guy closest to her snatched the phone. Seeing the contact named Baker on the screen, he laughed loudly. “Tucker, look, she really does have a Baker in her contacts!”
Unfortunately, the number was not Baker’s.
“Typical Westbrook High School overachiever putting on a full show. Too bad you slipped up”
The men laughed unabashedly. They smashed the phone on the ground, the screen shattering instantly.
Flora’s expression turned ice–cold. Anger spread around her furiously. That was a phone Hennik had bought for her.
“You’ve crossed the line.”
She didn’t want to fight. She had promised Connor she wouldn’t start fights recklessly but they were asking for it!
“Ha! What can you do about it?”
They laughed heartily, not taking Flora seriously at all. One even dared to reach out to Flora.
Just as his hand was about to touch Flora’s chest, she moved. Her delicate arm shot up, grabbing his wrist and twisting it to an unbelievable angle.
The man broke out in a cold sweat from the pain, his lips trembling, unable to utter a word, not even a cry of pain.
The others‘ expressions changed drastically, rushing to help their companion,
Flora’s gaze turned icy.
They didn’t even notice her kick. They only saw her spinning silhouette, and then they were slammed to the ground one after another.
The sound of bones breaking echoed through the air.
It felt as though their ribs were shattered, and breathing became painful.”
“You!
They struggled to utter a few syllables, looking at Flora as if she were a demon!
Outside the alley, those on watch had no idea what was happening inside. They only heard some rustling noises, accompanied by men’s low groans and the faint sound of a girl’s breathing.
They all wore knowing smirks on their faces.

Aaron clenched his fists tightly, forcing himself not to think about what might be happening inside.
This was all Flora’s doing. She had no one to blame but herself!
