Chapter 1202
"Flora! How dare you talk to me like that!"
Lillian was absolutely livid. She was used to being pampered and never faced any real pushback in the Schuler family. And now, being insulted by someone she saw as just an ordinary woman? Unthinkable! "Are you hard of hearing, or should I say it again?" Flora glanced up, her eyes steady and unbothered.
Flora had no time for people with no manners.
Mike and the others were taken aback by Flora's audacity. He hurried over to her, whispering, "Flora, chill out a bit. These folks are from the Martial World; they've got serious skills and power."
Even though Mike tried to keep his voice low, Lillian, with her trained senses, picked up on it. That just fed her ego-this was exactly how regular folks should react around Martial World people.
"Flora, you're lucky the Schuler family is even considering you. Don't be ungrateful. You've just ticked me off. Now, kneel, apologize, and maybe I'll think about forgiving you and letting you join the Schuler family." "Lillian!" Zavier's eyes narrowed.
But Lillian wasn't backing down. She'd disliked Flora ever since their time in the Martial World.
How could an ordinary person be so sought after by all the major families? When she and Zavier got to the Medical Base, her dad even told her to be polite to Flora. She'd spent years in the Martial World without such treatment, so why should Flora get it? "Kneel to you?" Flora let out a light laugh, her gaze drifting over Lillian. "You're not worth it."
She wasn't going to waste more time; she'd rather be napping with Connor. "Mike, I'm out."
With that, Flora turned on her heel and walked away, dismissing the so-called Martial World nonsense.
Lillian couldn't believe Flora was ignoring her. Watching Flora walk off, she covertly unleashed her abilities, trying to press down on Flora!
"Flora!"
As a Martialist, she could make an ordinary person's life miserable with just her presence.
Mike and the others were oblivious, but Zavier, also a Martialist, sensed it. The FUND's rules were clear: Martialists weren't allowed to use their powers against ordinary people, or else the FUND's

Enforcement Division would step in.
However, Zavier thought Flora's stubborn streak needed addressing. Her rebellious attitude needed to be checked, or she'd never fall inline in the Schuler family.
So, he didn't stop it.
Lillian, with a smug and malicious look, waited for Flora to falter and bleed.
But.
Flora kept walking, her steps calm and unaffected by the pressure!
How was this even possible?
Lillian's face was a picture of disbelief. She'd used almost her full strength, yet Flora wasn't even fazed? Any regular person would be writhing in pain by now! Unless Flora was a Martialist herself, shielded by her own powers!
But that couldn't be!
"Don't you walk away!"
Seeing Flora nearly at the door, Lillian dashed forward, her hand claw-like, reaching for Flora's shoulder!
She needed to know why her power had no effect on Flora.
What was Flora's secret trick?
"Lillian, stop!"
vels
Zavier, mulling over Flora's apparent invulnerability, reacted a bit late. As he watched Lillian charge, his expression changed, and he quickly sprang into action!
