Chapter 578
"He's totally lost it!" The woman cried out in despair, "If you don't come soon, that man will kill me!"
She hadn't even managed to get close to him and already almost got killed.
The door swung open, and Flora stepped inside, spotting Connor slumped against the wall. His shirt was drenched in sweat.
A pang of pain hit Flora's heart.
The discomfort radiating from his very bones was driving Connor to the brink of madness, desperate for an outlet. But he knew he had to hold back.
The woman's presence loomed closer, her slender, fair legs beneath her skirt catching Connor's eye. He clenched his hand against the floor.
"Get out!"
"Connor, it's me..."
Hearing the familiar voice, the last thread of Connor's restraint snapped! He yanked her into his arms, his hot breath engulfing Flora, pinning her to the ground.
Rafael and the others quietly backed out of the room, closing the door behind them.
...
Rafael and his crew had caused the trouble, but it was Flora who had to clean up the mess.
Connor rarely touched Flora, feeling protective over her youth. Even though she drove him crazy with desire, he always controlled himself. This was the first time he had lost control so completely. Seeing the bruises on Flora's body made him feel awful.
"Let me see."
Flora was so embarrassed she could hardly look at him. "Don't look..."
But he didn't listen and frowned deeply at the sight of her injuries.
She needed ointment.
He called Moss to buy some medicine.
Ten minutes later, Moss showed up, face flushed, handing Connor the medicine and some clothes.
For someone who'd never been in a relationship, buying these items was deeply embarrassing.
The island's pharmacy had all the basics, including some items for intimate situations. When Moss bought the medicine, the clerk even gave him a knowing look and advised him to take it easy. Connor was embarrassed too, but Flora's injuries were the priority.
He accepted the items with a straight face and closed the door.
Seeing the clothes and medicine in his hand, Flora's mind went blank.
"You made Moss buy this?!"
She had vaguely heard Moss's voice earlier.
Connor hummed in confirmation and gently applied the ointment.
No matter how thick-skinned Flora was, her face turned as red as an apple. She grabbed a pillow to cover her face, plotting revenge on Rafael and his crew.
Flora lay in bed all night and the next morning, barely able to walk.
Crimson came to see her and, noticing her awkward walk, let out a teasing sound.
"Where are Rafael and the others?"
Flora gritted her teeth. "They've already left."
Hmph...
Think you can run away? Not a chance!
Rafael and Louie, having made it to shore, felt a chill down their spines as they touched their necks.
They had really gone too far this time.
...
Connor made a ton of delicious food for Flora. The poor girl had been through quite an ordeal and needed to be properly taken care of.
Flora lay half-reclined on the bed, browsing her phone while snacking from a small table. Suddenly, she noticed a piece of lemon drizzle cake missing.
She was taken aback at first, but then she smiled slightly and said, "Alright, which little rascal is stealing snacks again?"
