Chapter 311
Flora couldn’t help but laugh and cry at the situation before finally giving in and agreeing to mentor both the Intelligence and Enforcement divisions.
“Ms. Flora, are you heading to Enforcement now? All the apprentices are already gathered and started their training. It would be perfect timing for you to come over and offer some guidance,” Jason said, rubbing his hands together excitedly.
“Why should Ms. Flora go to Enforcement first?” Pax shot him a glare but turned to Flora with a smile, “Ms. Flora, the Intelligence apprentices have been eagerly waiting for you. We’ve even prepared a little welcome party!”
“You old geezer, always trying to one–up me,-aren’t you? Which is more important, Enforcement or Intelligence?”
“What do you mean ‘which is more important‘? You think Intelligence is beneath you? You Enforcement guys are just a bunch of brutes! If it weren’t for us in Intelligence helping you stay hidden and avoid trackers, you’d have been toast ages ago!”
“Keep arguing and you’ll both be out on your ears.”
A man’s icy voice cut through the argument like a cold shower, silencing Jason and Pax, who sulked and dared not speak further.
Connor stood at the dining table, his tall frame making the space feel cramped. He set the table and called out, “Flora, come have dinner.”
His voice was gentle and doting, a stark contrast to the icy tone he had used moments ago to scold Pax and Jason.
They obediently shut their mouths, not daring to speak further, quietly waiting for Flora to have her meal,
Moss and Beck came looking for Connor, needing him to handle some matters, so he left first.
Flora took her time finishing her meal, then headed to Enforcement.
Jason and Pax followed behind her.
Choosing Enforcement over Intelligence was a real blow to Pax, who looked at

Flora with mournful eyes the entire way.
Outside the Medical Division, two medical apprentices sat at the entrance, grinding herbs and quietly chatting.
“I heard Jason and Pax got into a heated argument over asking Ms. Flora to be their mentor. Looks like it’s true.”
“Say what you will, but Ms. Flora seems genuinely impressive. Lance passed the Enforcement assessment race in just half a month under her guidance. I wish she could teach me too,” one apprentice said, eyes full of admiration and longing.
The other apprentice scoffed, “You actually believe it was all her doing? It must have been the boss giving Lance special treatment. Otherwise, how could Flora have such influence?“.
“Shh, stop talking, the chief is right behind us,” the first apprentice gestured for silence, cautiously pointing to Yara behind the counter.
Yara was busy texting Jules on her phone. She had reached out to Jules several times, but each time, the response was the same.
Busy with experiments and couldn’t spare the time for these trivial matters. The issue with the special medication would have to wait until he was
finished.
But Yara couldn’t wait any longer. She needed to secure her position in Connor’s heart as soon as possible.
After sending a message and not receiving a quick reply from Jules, she grew impatient. Hearing the apprentices‘ conversation, she looked up to see Jason eagerly inviting Flora into Enforcement, her brows furrowing slightly.
She put down her phone and silently made her way out, heading into Enforcement.
Inside Enforcement, all the apprentices were training. Lance and Colton were there too.
As usual, they had been waiting at the estate early in the morning for Flora. But Jason had sent them back to train, saying he would accompany Flora
