Flora’s Guide to a Second Chance at Love and Life

She could barely contain her excitement at the thought of Flora's downfall!

By lunchtime, the list of participants for the competition was ready. Shawn, in his usual efficient manner, quickly printed all the review materials and handed them out to everyone involved.

They all knew that taking on the medical organization was a tall order, and despite their best efforts, defeat seemed inevitable. But that didn't matter.

What counted was giving it their all and staying true to themselves. They shared Mr. Richard's sentiment: even if they lost, they wanted to lose with dignity, without shame, and uphold the honor of their institution.

Dr. Ray sent the participant list to the medical school and the external relations department. Seeing "Flora, Medical Department, Freshman" on the list made him sigh deeply. This list was sure to stir the pot. Everyone was so caught up in their work that they couldn't spare a moment, not even for lunch, so they opted for delivery instead.

"Is Miss Flora here?"

The doorbell rang, and initially, everyone thought it was the food. But when they looked up, they saw a man in a sharp suit standing outside the sliding glass door.

They recognized him-Hudson's personal assistant.

What's he doing here? And why is he asking for Flora specifically?

Was this another one of Hudson's schemes to get back at Flora?

The senior students immediately went on high alert, instinctively shielding Flora. Shawn stepped outside, maintaining his calm: "Is there something you need with Flora?"

"I am Mr. Otto's assistant. Mr. Otto would like to see Miss Flora. His car is parked just outside the lab, and he would appreciate it if Miss Flora could join him."

Alexa's eyes widened with excitement the moment she saw the assistant.

Finally!

Flora had been too cocky, and it seemed Hudson had finally had enough. Was he planning to confront Flora?

But why was the assistant being so polite? Shouldn't he have just brought some bodyguards and taken Flora away?

Shawn kept his composure, his tone

gentle: "The lab is quite busy at the moment, and Flora can't come down. If Mr. Otto needs something, maybe we can assist."

But the assistant shook his head firmly.

"Mr. Otto insists on seeing Miss Flora personally."NôvelDrama.Org: owner of this content.

Flora, propping her chin on her hand, had anticipated Hudson would come for her, but not this soon.

Things must be getting desperate for him.

The assistant was unyielding, and Shawn and the others were wary of making Hudson angry, which could spell trouble for Flora. But letting Flora go alone wasn't an option; they didn't trust Hudson's intentions.

"If Flora has to go, can I accompany her?" Shawn offered. With him there, at least Flora wouldn't be alone, reducing the chances of any foul play.

The assistant shook his head again. If anyone saw Mr. Otto in his current state, his job would be at risk.

"Mr. Otto said only Miss Flora is to come down."

"This..."

Shawn frowned, even more concerned about letting Flora go alone.

The assistant turned to Flora, almost pleading: "Please don't make this difficult for me, Miss. Just come down with me. I'm just doing my job."

"I'm not going down,” Flora said, a sly smile playing on her lips and a twinkle of mischief in her eyes.If Mr. Otto wants to see me, he can come up himself."
