Chapter 282
Moss and Beck brought up the rear stepping out last. Each person was lugging bags and packages, clearly filled with the girl’s belongings. The division heads exchanged puzzled looks, not expecting a girl to be part of the group. Curious glances flicked over Flora, but they quickly turned their respectful attention to Connor, and in unison, greeted, “Boss.”
The base was split into four divisions: Intelligence, Enforcement, Logistics, and Medical. The only one absent was the head of the Medical Division, who had other commitments
Connor nodded, his gaze softening as it landed on Flora “Tired? Want to rest for a bit?”
Flora adjusted her sun hat lower “Yeah, a bit”
Connor took her hand and led her into the base.
“Beck, what’s the deal? Why did the boss bring a woman here?” asked Chad, the head of the Enforcement Division, frowning deeply.
Beck, with a sour expression, didn’t bother to respond. Moss, standing nearby, said indifferently, “That’s the boss‘ fiancée.
“Her?” Zack, the head of the Logistics Division, scowled, visibly disdainful. He thought the boss‘ fiancée should be someone noble. elegant and powerful

Flora paused mid–bite upon hearing Red Scorpions, raising an eyebrow and picking up her phone to connect to the internet. Raul and Henrik were asking if she had arrived and whether she was having fun. Flora responded to each.
