Chapter 1201
The Schuler Foundation grants a coveted spot to just one family every two years, and this time, it's the Schuler family's lucky break, leaving the other families green with envy. Lillian's mood soured even more upon hearing this.
"For regular folks, getting into the Elite Circle is like hitting the jackpot of a lifetime. Why would they even deserve a 'thank you'? And Zavier, you're sticking up for her?" Zavier just chuckled, staying silent.
Even among the average, there are levels of distinction.
Flora, with her extraordinary talent, would be considered a rare find even in the Elite Circle.
Most importantly, Brandon's mom was dealing with a chronic illness causing her severe pain. Despite consulting numerous traditional healers, nothing helped. She hoped Flora could work her magic. "Ms. Flora."
The announcement came from outside.
A figure then confidently walked in.
Everyone turned instinctively to look.
Zavier and Lillian glanced up too.
The young woman was dressed casually, in a grey hoodie and matching loose pants, topped with a long white coat. Her hair was down, cascading freely, with a cool gaze slightly lifted. Her effortless and relaxed vibe made it impossible to look away. Zavier's eyes lit up with admiration!
This woman.
She was stunning!
Even after seeing many gorgeous women in the Elite Circle, none compared to her!
"Zavier!" Lillian pouted, seeing Zavier almost mesmerized.
Zavier snapped back to reality, stood up, and approached Flora: "You...are Flora?"
Flora nodded.
Zavier cleared his throat: "I'm Zavier, from the Schuler family in the Elite Circle. I'm not sure if you're familiar with it."
Mike quickly stood up to fill Flora in: "Flora, the Elite Circle is..."
"I know."
She had already gathered plenty of information.
Mike was surprised.
Regular folks usually hadn't even heard of the Elite Circle, let alone know as much as she did.
But Flora's calm demeanor upon hearing about the Elite Circle was unexpected.
Well...
It was his own lack of awareness.NôvelD(ram)a.ôrg owns this content.
People like her always knew more.
Seeing how composed Flora was, Zavier was even more pleased, "The Elite Circle lets each family choose someone every two years to join, and this time, it's the Schuler family's turn. Would you be

interested in joining me, Ms Flora?"
"As a young woman, you might have some concerns, but rest assured, once you're in the Elite Circle, I'll look after you."
"Zavier, why are you being so polite
to her?" Zavier was the Schuler family's brightest talent. Lillian usually bent over backward to impress him, and today, he was being so accommodating toca regular woman?
People in the Elite Circle had a strong sense of hierarchy, even the women. They believed common folks entering the Elite Circle were only suited for menial tasks, so naturally, Lillian couldn't stand Zavier's attentiveness to Flora.
"Flora, don't let being a world champ and the center of attention here go to your head. In the Elite Circle, you're nothing. Anyone there could squash you with a single slap!" "Lillian!" Zavier snapped back, then turned to Flora with an apologetic tone: "Ms. Flora, Lillian's been spoiled by her family. Please don't take it to heart."
"If you know she's spoiled, then you should straighten her out. Once she's totally rotten, it'll be too late."
Zavier was taken aback. Flora seemed so pleasant and approachable at first glance; he had pegged her as a reserved and elegant lady. He hadn't expected her to be so straightforward.
