Chapter 1199: Kill them!
"Kill me... and all my men, including the other families, will disintegrate the entire Oxley Family to smithereens. However, take my side and I will reassure you the Oxley Family will secure the number one spot. I think our brief exchange here is enough for you to see who better fits the title. Now, take your pick."
Florence couldn’t help but laugh out loud at everything Hera spewed. It was ridiculous!
"Hera Cruel, you called me foolish just because I let you in?" she repeated in between her laughter. "Don’t you think there’s a reason for me why I let you in in the presence of my people?"
Florence slowly turned and faced her lovely niece squarely. "Oh, goodness. You truly remind me of Felice. All you do is talk big, but when it comes to this family, you are nothing but a selfish little coward who thinks they could do everything they want."
"Hera Cruel, if you think using mere words is enough to sway my people, then you have underestimated us!" she added with a sneer. "Say everything you want to say, but they are my people. They might agree with you on some things, but they’ll never fight for you."
Hera’s eyes glossed over at everyone, only to see the displeasure in their eyes. "It seems you are right," she said. "The Oxley Family looks like a loyal bunch. I guess I insulted them when I asked them to choose me?"
"You are young, my lovely niece," Florence smirked. "So don’t feel bad for making mistakes here and there."
"I never felt bad making mistakes." Hera smacked her lips. "Oh, my god. My brother’s gonna kill me if I die here."
"My men are already searching for your brother. So, do not fret. He might die before you." Florence raised her chin as she shrugged mildly. "Unlike you, there’s nothing I’d like to hear from him."
