Chapter 146
The sight of so many bodyguards made the parents back down instantly.

The parent who had been saved by Flora just moments ago was filled with grailtude and guilt. Yet, she found herself unable to voice her
thanks
“You all spoke so harshly about my sister earlier, but when you were in danger, she didn’t hesitate to come to your rescue. Could such a kind–hearted girl really be the disgraceful person you’ve made her out to be?”
Henrik’s chest was trembling, and his voice quivered as he spoke. He was both angry and heartbroken.
The parents were at a loss for words.
They had seen it with their own eyes. In that moment of crisis, Flora had rushed to help without a second thought, almost as if it was an instinctive reaction.
They simply couldn’t reconcile the Flora they had condemned based on online rumors with the young girl standing before them now.
Perhaps there had been some misunderstanding after all.
Sensing their attitudes softening, Mr. Garcia quickly spoke up, “Dear parents, please trust the school. We will provide a satisfactory solution as soon as possible. Blocking the school entrance like this prevents the students from focusing on their classes.” “Then well leave for now, but we’re only giving you three days. You must give us an answer within these three days!”
Aside from their newfound belief in Flora, the mass departure of the parents was also due to Connor and the group of bodyguards behind him.
Their anxiety was palpable. There was even a premonition among them that if they continued to make a fuss, the bodyguards might just physically remove them from the premises.
Mr. Garcia hastily assured them that everything would be resolved within three days. Then, the parents left, and the drama finally came to an end.
“Mr. Connor, what brings you here?”
Facing Connor, Mr. Garcia’s tone was exceedingly humble, even fearful.
“My fiancée was comered in your school, nearly getting hurt. Mr. Garcia, you’re doing a great job,” he said, his voice deep and resonant, like a cello slowly coming to life, incredibly pleasing to the ear.
Mr. Garcia’s face turned pale with fear.
Flora was curious. Mr. Garcia seemed to be quite afraid of Connor
Even though Stonnell International held a significant position in Cedarvale, there was no need for Mr. Garcia to be so scared, right? “This incident was my oversight. I will handle it.”

Mr. Garcia was so frightened that his heart nearly leapt out of his throat. Flora was actually engaged to this influential figure!
Putting his hands under Flora’s chest and legs, Connor carried her up and walked towards the school gate.
Raul and Henrik were both filled with worry now, and they couldn’t be bothered to deal with Connor’s shameless taking advantage of Flora.
In a corner, Carina witnessed everything, her long nails digging into her flesh. She couldn’t stand that Flora seemed to have gotten away from this huge scandal so easily.
She was far from willing to let it go.
After returning. Mr. Garcia ordered a thorough investigation of the incident, especially targeting the individual who had claimed to be a Westbrook High School teacher online.
The IT department quickly traced the source based on the ID. It was Jade.
Furious, Mr. Garcia demanded Jade’s presence. “As a teacher, how could you stoop to posting such disgraceful comments about their own student online? Where have your professional ethics gone?”
