Chapter 272 The Final Victor
“Be cool,” Byron said, glancing mysteriously at Cora.
“Not kicking their asses? Then what is it? A group fight?”
She noticed that many rich young men were trying to get close to Jane, and she also saw Jane chatting happily with them, completely ignoring Byron’s presence. It confirmed her
suspicions.
In the past, whenever Jane saw Byron, she would immediately
come over to him and would never flirt with other men in his
presence.
But now, she acted as if she didn’t see him and continued
chatting with those young men.
Those young men seemed to be provoking Byron even more, engaging in lively conversations with Jane after seeing Byron.
The Hansen family once wanted Jane to become Byron’s wife, yet now she was getting cozy with others…
“While I understand your inexplicable suffering after being cheated on, I suggest you keep calm,” Cora consoled him.

But Byron suddenly pinched her waist. “As long as you haven’t
cheated on me, I won’t be suffering anything. And besides…”
Cora raised her head and saw Byron looking at her attentively. “No need to intentionally cheer me up. I’m not that
fragile. And I do have a purpose of coming here today.”
Cora was taken aback, realizing that he was already aware…
However, she was still curious about what his actual purpose
was.
Since they entered the banquet venue, she had heard people
frequently mention that the event was to celebrate the signing
ceremony between the Hansen Group and the Sunda Group.
But now, the Hansen family wasn’t under his control, so it
wasn’t him representing the signing of the agreement.
Byron had inexplicably become an outsider, and it saddened
her.
Indeed. Byron was clearly being ignored today.
Even though his every move still exuded an unmatched nobility, and his appearance still stood out in the crowd, those
who used to come up and tried to get to know him were now
nowhere to be seen.
Chapter 272 The Final Victor
Even those rich young men who were once friendly with him, like Harry, didn’t come up to greet him.
It seemed like everyone was afraid that continuing their friendship with Byron would offend the current people in charge of the Hansen family, making Cora realize for the first time that thriving in the world of fame and fortune required a strong heart.
Cora considered herself lacking such toughness, so she
excused herself to go to the restroom to relieve her pressure.
Unexpectedly, she bumped into Sara and Jane, who were both
touching up their makeup in the restroom.
“Oh, isn’t this the hero who performed surgery on Old Mr.
Hansen?”
Sara jeered at Cora upon seeing her enter the restroom, not intending to let her off easily after making her daughter cry.
Cora planned to wash her hands and leave, but since Sara
was mocking her and Byron, she decided to join in and took
out a lipstick, casually applying it in front of the mirror.
“Well, at least I’m known as the lead surgeon, much better than those assistants whose names are rarely mentioned, right?”
Chapter 272 The Final Victor
Cora retorted, causing both Sara and Jane’s faces to darken
instantly.
But Jane had always been patient and only glared at Cora in
anger.
On the contrary, Sara seemed ferocious, and her voice became sharper.
“You tried so hard to sleep with Byron and were desperate
to save his father’s life through surgery, all because you want to marry into the Hansen family, right? But who would have thought that in the end, Byron lost control of the family
and became the most useless one. How does it feel to lose
everything after exhausting all your efforts?”
“The final victor is yet to be determined,” Cora applied her
dark red lipstick, which instantly made her seem domineering.
Thus, Sara and Jane couldn’t help but wonder if Cora knew
something they didn’t.
“Do you know something?” Jane finally couldn’t hold back and
asked.
“Make a wild guess,”
Cora replied. She actually didn’t know anything, but she enjoyed keeping them guessing, leaving Sara and Jane

extremely curious.
But just as Cora felt satisfied after perturbing Sara and Jane, someone dragged her into a dark corner as soon as she
stepped out of the restroom…
