Chapter 868
How did they end up here too... Things were really blowing up now!
"Karter, don't worry, we've got your back!" A bunch of family heads declared confidently. Their expressions turned icy as they glanced at Flora and her crew, with Ben, the lead, barking, "This is Lone Island territory, and we won't let you run riot here!" Club 257 and the Hacker Alliance, guns at the ready, had the Reyes family surrounded. Such a spectacle naturally caught the attention of other families on Lone Island.
Karter, usually a friendly guy with good relationships across many families, was in trouble, and that had everyone on edge. So, a bunch of family heads rushed over.
They weren't sure how Club 257 and the Hacker Alliance had slipped onto Lone Island unnoticed by airport security, but now that the threat was at their doorstep, they had to act, or they'd look like pushovers!
"No, they..." Karter tried to explain, clearly anxious.
"That's enough, no need to explain. We get it!" Ben cut him off, shooting a serious look at Crimson and the others, "Lone Island, Club 257, and the Hacker Alliance have always lived peacefully together. I don't know why you suddenly attacked the Reyes family, but if you want to leave here alive, you'd better leave now!"
Even though they had the numbers, they were cautious of Crimson and her crew. Nobody wanted a fight that would leave both sides in ruins unless it was unavoidable.
"We should be saying that to you. If you want to live, leave now. If you're thinking of standing up for the Reyes family, you'd better check if you have what it takes," Crimson said coolly, not a flicker of fear in her eyes.
"Arrogant!" a family head shouted angrily. "We have the numbers on our side now. Do you really think you can take us on with just your little group?"
Crimson just sneered. They had come all this way; did they think she'd back down?
She was about to speak when suddenly, a cold female voice rang out from behind her, "Get lost!"
Flora stood up, her dark eyes scanning the crowd at the door, her presence commanding.
"Today, unless you're part of the Reyes family, I have no interest in dealing with you. Don't go looking for trouble."
"Let's see who's really looking for trouble!"
Since talking wasn't getting them anywhere, there was no point in continuing. Ben waved his hand, and his crew, guns ready, charged at Flora and the others.Original content from NôvelDrama.Org.
Crimson and her crew immediately shielded Flora, with Club 257 and the Hacker Alliance gearing up for a fight.
However—
Before Ben and his crew could get close, they crumpled to the ground like puppets with their strings cut.
They couldn't move a muscle.
"We...why are we so weak..."
"I'm weak too..."
What on earth was happening?
This was too strange, way beyond anything they could fathom, and terror gripped them.
"What did you do to us?"
"We warned you not to pick a fight, why didn't you listen?" Crimson smirked, her eyes darting to Flora. Flora's skills with scents were getting sharper and sharper en

laughed heartily.
Ben and the others lay sprawled on the ground, too weak to even stand up, their fear and despair growing by the second!
They couldn't bear the thought of dying here!
Who would save them?
Maybe their desperate prayers were answered because just then-
The roar of car engines grew louder, echoing through the sky!
"It's the Falcone family's car!"
"The Falcone family is here!"
"It's Connor!"
The group, who had been drowning in despair, suddenly lit up with excitement, shouting with relief, like people who had been throwma lifeline in a storm!
