Outside the Dungeon.

The sun was shining just right today, warm and inviting, but Flora couldn't shake the chill that ran through her veins.

"Connor, I need to head over to the Roth estate," she said, her voice rough and determined.

Those fools were asking for trouble, and she was ready to handle them all in one go. Anyone who posed a threat to her family would be dealt with swiftly and completely. If it weren't for Connor's quick thinking, she couldn't bear to imagine the outcome. "I'll go with you," Connor replied gently, his fingers softly squeezing her cold ones.

"Alright," she nodded.

Flora closed her eyes, replaying the moment when Connor had shown her the paternity test results just thirty minutes ago. The Roth family... It was time to put an end to this.

...

The Roth Family Estate.

Nestled in the heart of the Martial World's most luxurious district, the estate was a grand spectacle. Old-world mansions stretched for miles, like a miniature fortress.

Outside the Roth gates, a line of guards stood at attention, their uniforms crisp, their expressions severe, and their imposing stature warning off any would-be intruders. This was the Roth family, the top dogs. Nobody in their right mind would dare mess with them. But now, a throng of people was moving steadily towards the estate.

Tara paced in her garden, nerves frayed.

Why hadn't there been any news from Sydney? By now, surely something should've come through. She had even stationed someone at the Enforcement Division to keep tabs, but they hadn't reported back.

The thought of Flora mourning her father and brothers brought a twisted smile to Tara's lips. She squinted with satisfaction, waiting for the good news, until the commotion outside caught her attention. Frowning, she called for a servant and snapped, "What's all that racket outside?"

"Miss, it's the Enforcement Division! There are loads of them!" the servant blurted out nervously. "It's a madhouse out there!"

Tara's face went pale. Why on earth would the Enforcement Division be here? Unless-

"Bang!"

A deafening crash.

The door flew open with a forceful kick!

Tara's heart nearly stopped as she looked up to see two towering men at the entrance, smirking darkly at her.

"Miss Tara, you're coming with us."

"Moss, why bother with pleasantries? Just haul this idiot out!"

...

Outside the Roth estate, chaos was in full swing.

Connor and his crew had the place sealed tight.

"What is the Enforcement Division trying to pull Are they declaring war on us?" With Sammuel and Brodie away, the butler was left in charge. His eyes, clouded with anger, bore into Connor and his entourage.

The Enforcement Division and the Roth family had always maintained a truce What on earth had gotten into the Enforcement Division today to bring such a crowd? Did they plan to wipe out the Roth family?

"I'm not interested in the Roth family. I just want Tara," Flora said, standing next to Connor in a crisp white shirt and black pants, her demeanor as icy as ever. "Hand over Tara."

"Our lady, why would we give her to you?" the butler sneered. "The Enforcement Division might be tough, but the Roth family isn't a pushover! If you want our lady, you'll have to get past us first." "Ma'am, Tara's right here!"

Before the butler could finish, a voice rang out as Beck strolled in, dragging Tara along and tossing her at Flora's feet. Butler: "Miss!"

The butler was stunned and rushed to help Tara, only to be held back by Jonathan's men.

"Flora... it's you," Tara groaned, her whole body aching as she struggled to her feet, eyes narrowing at Flora.

Then, seeing Connor by her side, his hand on her waist, Tara felt her blood freeze and her mind explode. They-

So, Flora was Connor's fiancée!

Flora wasted no time and kicked Tara hard, "Tara, you're asking for it!"

A sleek black pistol rested in Flora's pale hand, its barrel slowly aligning with Tara's head. "You know what you've done. You deserve what's coming. Your life is mine today!"

Desperate the butler watched as

Flora prepared to pull the trigger With nothing left to lose, he gritted his teeth and pulled a silver needle from his coat, flinging it at Flora with lightning speed.

"Stop!"

A frantic, piercing voice rang out from the entrance!
