Chapter 322
The three leaders quickly moved in to take a look.
Flora glanced at the screen and said, “Around one hour and seven minutes, give or take five.”
Connor scrolled the footage to the timestamp Flora mentioned.
“Stop! Right there!”
Connor hit the pause button as soon as Flora spoke. But the surveillance had blind spots. It only showed Yara moving slightly closer to Flora, but didn’t catch any evidence of Yara intentionally kicking her.
Flora watched, then licked the back of her teeth and smirked.
No wonder Yara was so confident she wouldn’t get in trouble. She knew about the blind spots in the surveillance, and even if it was fixed, it wouldn’t reveal much.
“Ms. Flora, what do you have to say now!” Yara stood up shakily, her voice filled with despair. “You’re the boss‘ fiancée, and I’m just a minor leader here. You can hit or scold me, and I’ve endured it all! But this time, you falsely accuse me of plotting against Mr. Chen, and I can’t accept that.”
She wiped away a tear, looked at Connor, and said, “Boss, since I can no longer stay here, there’s no point in me staying any longer. I voluntarily leave the club!”
“Yara, don’t say things out of anger. You’ve been wronged, but you can’t just leave like that!” Zack anxiously tried to stop Yara, worried she really would leave.
Yara and Pax exchanged glances, feeling things were too coincidental.
Yara had spent years in the operation room; she was familiar with the surveillance, yet she stood right in the blind spot… Was it a coincidence or intentional?
Tears welled up in Yara’s eyes as she looked at Connor, her appearance pitifully delicate, enough to soften any man’s heart. But the man she wanted to win over had eyes and heart only for Flora.
Connor’s gaze swept towards Yara, and with just that look, Yara felt as if she’d fallen into
an ice cave.
“Hand over your club entry token to Enforcement, and then you can leave.”
His voice was devoid of any warmth, crushing the last bit of hope in Yara’s heart.
She felt like a joke. She had given her youth and everything to the club, only to be dismissed by Connor with such words. Even Zack tried to retain her, but what about Connor? To him, she was just like dealing with a small cat or dog.

Chapter 322
Yara was utterly heartbroken. She deeply sighed. Her years of love were all in vain. Her deep love and tenderness turned into nothing, replaced by intense hatred! When she loved Connor, he disregarded her. One day, they would beg her to return to the club!
Dragging her injured body, Yara left step by step. When she reached the door, she looked back. The man she had loved for six years was holding Flora, with a tenderness in his eyes she had never seen before.
A taste of iron surged to her throat, and Yara spat out a mouthful of fresh blood, dragging her battered body away step by step. From the operation room to the Enforcement Office, she had to cross the long training grounds. It was the club members‘ training time, and the ground was crowded. Seeing Yara’s grievous injuries, all the members were shocked.
“Yara, how did you get so seriously injured? Was It those bastards from The Red Scorpions who ambushed us?”
A few eager members quickly came over to support Yara. Disciples from the Medical Division, upon hearing the news, also rushed over with medical kits to treat Yara.
Yara refused, a bitter smile on her pale face. Under the scorching sun, her body swayed.
“In the years I’ve spent here, I’ve had the happiest moments of my life, but all good things must come to an end, and this is as far as I go, I have asked the boss to let me leave the club, and from now on, I have no ties with the Empire Club.”
Her words stirred up a storm. All the members were shocked.
“Yara, what happened? Why are you suddenly leaving the club?”
“Did something happen? Tell us, and we can solve it together!”
Tears welled up in Yara’s eyes, and she couldn’t help but cry. “Thank you, everyone, but I’m really leaving this time.”
“For the club, I’ve been through thick and thin, but I can’t accept being humiliated and wrongfully accused. Ms. Flora, she…”
Yara choked up towards the end, leaving much to the imagination. She had always been the strongest; it was the first time they saw her cry like this, she must have suffered a great injustice.
“Was it that Flora who did this to you again?” The disciples from the Medical Division were furious. “She’s gone too far! Last time you were in bed for half a month because of her! And now, as soon as you recover, she does it again!”
“Let’s
go to the boss and demand that Flora be severely punished!”
All the members were enraged. Flora had crossed their line.
“No need to go.” Yara closed her eyes, feeling powerless and hopeless. “You don’t have to offend Ms. Flora for me, or you’ll end up like me.”

Chapter 322
“From now on, I won’t be here to protect you. You must be careful and try not to provoke her. I, as a club leader, have failed to protect you.”
After saying this, Yara boldly walked into the Enforcement Office, handed over her token, and left the club without looking back.
Her phone vibrated in her pocket, and Yara took it out to see a message from Jules. A small smile formed on her lips. She was leaving in disgrace now, but soon, they would be asking her to come back!
In the hospital room, Adler’s condition had improved, and he would wake up in no more than two hours.
He was finally out of danger, and the three club leaders should have been happy, but the thought of Yara’s situation dampened their spirits.
“After such a long surgery, you must be exhausted. Go rest,” Connor said softly.
Flora lazily responded, indeed tired after hours of surgery.
“Call me as soon as Adler wakes
up.”
She hadn’t been gone long when Moss and Beck rushed in, their expressions somber and anxious.
