?Chapter 212:


    Marissa’s sweet voice infused the Starlight Hall with a flirtatious air. Connor’s team squirmed with embarrassment for their boss, while Amiri’s followers buzzed with excitement, seeing him as a ma for admirers


    Amiri himself was ecstatic. He thrived on the adtion from his lovers, who proimed him the most handsome man alive—a belief that bolstered his self-assurance. Charred by Marissa’s advances, Amiri even considered himself more captivating than Connor, his joy evident in his constant smile


    Amid the blend of difort and fascination, Connor kept his expression unreadable, even as everyone’s attention shifted to him. Everyone was curious about his response to his wife’s flirtatious antics. Yet, he appeared unfazed, his gazending on Marissa’s feet every now and then. In fact, her feet were neatly hidden under her dress. But he sensed her feet disturbing the wire’s rubber surface


    She had opted for crystal high-heel shoes that day, and he suspected they concealed something more. Oblivious to the potential threat, Amiri continued to enjoy his tea, served by Marissa with a shy smile. After damaging the wire’s rubber surface, Marissamented, “Enjoy your tea, Mr. Amiri.” She gracefully made her way back to her original seat next to Connor


    Amiri took a leisurely sip of his tea and then warmly proposed, “Mr. Daniels, it seems your wife wishes for peace between us. For her sake, why not reconsider my peace offer?”

    “Ha,” Connor scoffed. “Oh? You think I’m that easily convinced?”


    In a swift motion, he grabbed the ashtray and hurled it at the fish tank next to Amiri. He moved so quickly that Amiri’s security didn’t have time to react. The tank burst with a loud crash, unleashing a torrent of water


    Amiri and his men stiffened, readying themselves for a potential fight to the death. Meanwhile, Connor stayed calm, giving nomands to his own team. The perplexed bodyguards tried to figure out if Connor’s action was just a spontaneous disy of anger. Domenic, Marc, and Terry shared puzzled looks, ncing at Connor for any hint of what to do next. Initially, they had mistaken the broken fish tank as a cue to attack, but it soon became clear that their boss wasn’t signaling anything


    Their attention shifted to ck Snake, who had been yful and flirtatious moments ago. Now, she matched Connor’s detached demeanor. As bewilderment permeated the room, Amiri began to convulse violently, his face twisting in pain as he fell to the floor. Water from the smashed tank spread across the floor, soaking Amiri as he writhed in agony, his cries muffled by the pain


    “Mr. Amiri, what’s going on?” someone close to him called, reaching out to help. Almost immediately, this person began to shudder in spasms, copsing as the water flowed around him.

    The exact origin of the electric shock remained unknown, but it was clear the current had spread. “Oh, my goodness, what do we do now?” Amiri’s bodyguards started to panic.

    The tension in the room peaked as the door to the Starlight Hall burst open, revealing a group d in ck. They brandished their guns, aiming at everyone present
