DRAMA NOVEL ONLINE Chapter CHAPTER 321
Chapter 321
Flora’s chest heaved with fury. She’d never been particularly fond of Yara, but she hadn’t expected her to be so ruthless.
As a doctor herself, Flora knew the stakes. If her hand had trembled or slipped for even a second. Adler could have died. Yet, Yara had chosen that moment to attack!
To frame her, Yara had been willing to risk Adler’s life!
Unable to contain her rage, Flora slapped Yara hard. Twice. Yara hit the ground, her cheeks swelling and bleeding.
“Ms. Flora, what are you doing?” Yara whimpered, tears streaming down her cheeks, playing the victim to perfection.
Her sneaky actions had gone unnoticed by everyone else.
The three leaders were stunned to see Flora suddenly slap Yara.
“Ms. Flora, could there be some misunderstanding?” Zack asked, defending Yara, though his tone was far from friendly.
But considering Flora had just saved Adler, he was being unusually polite. In the past, Zack would have quickly labeled Flora as capricious, but now he was willing to consider the possibility of a misunderstanding.
Pax and Jason stayed silent, having interacted with Flora more. They knew she wouldn’t act without reason.
“Yara, I always thought your issue with me was because of Connor. I believed you were at least loyal to our base, which is why I let things slide,” Flora’s anger grew as she spoke. She stomped on Yara’s chest, each word emphasized with force. “You’re a doctor. You knew what your kick could do. If I hadn’t held steady, if my hand had shaken, Adler would be dead.”
Yara, struggling to breathe under Flora’s foot, shot back, “Ms. Flora, you can’t accuse me without proof… When did I kick you? You can’t blame me for almost messing up your surgery.”
She was confident there was no evidence. Her actions had been covert, hidden from view. Even if Connor believed Flora, punishing Yara without proof could cause unrest among the base members.
The three leaders exchanged uneasy glances. It was hard to believe. Yara had been with the base for years, saving many lives, including Zack’s.
They couldn’t imagine Yara doing such a thing. But Flora lying seemed equally

Improbable…
“Ms. Flora, there must be some misunderstanding,” Zack said finally, his voice dry. Pax and Jason, though silent, seemed to agree.
There seemed to be no other explanation.
“Check the surveillance,” Connor ordered coldly
The leaders perked up. The operating room had surveillance. Reviewing it would clear things up.
Moss and Beck quickly fetched the footage but returned with grim faces. “Boss, the surveillance has been tampered with.”
Yara smirked, having anticipated this. She’d been bold because she knew the footage was compromised.
Pax volunteered to repair it, but the sabotage was sophisticated. Despite his efforts, he couldn’t fix it quickly.
“Boss, the surveillance can’t be fixed right away. I’ll take it back and work on it,” Pax said, looking serious.
“Let’s not bother,” Zack suggested. “We know Yara. There must be a misunderstanding…”
“Give me the computer,” Flora demanded, her face set in determination.
Pax, eager to see Flora’s skills, handed her the laptop. But before it reached her, a hand intercepted it.
Flora’s gaze followed the hand up to Connor’s face. Her eyes were slightly red from hours of staring at monitors.
“You’ve just finished surgery. You’re tired. Rest and leave this to me,” Connor said softly.
“Okay,” Flora nodded, sitting down with a tense expression.
If Yara tried to stand, Flora kicked her back down.
Yara’s frustration was palpable, her eyes blazing with anger.
Flora watched coldly, her eyes slightly reddened, exuding a chill.
With the laptop on his lap, Connor’s fingers flew over the keyboard. His long, sculpted fingers moved with precision, his focus on the screen, his lips pressed together, showing a hint of stoicism.
Watching him, Flora felt her mood lift. Her man was indeed handsome!
On the screen, codes whirled and danced, dazzling to the eye. Pax could barely keep up.
With a final keystroke, the code vanished, replaced by a video.

“We cracked it!” Pax shouted, his excitement a blow to. Yara’s confidence.
Yara trembled. She hadn’t anticipated Connor personally repairing the surveillance.
But she had one more trick up her sleeve. Even if the surveillance was restored, she believed it wouldn’t definitively prove her guilt.
