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

Just as Connor had left, Jennifer received a call from Christopher

At the sight of the caller ID, Jennifer’s scalp tingled. Why was her father calling at this time? Could it be that he already knew she had offended Connor?

No, no, no… That couldn’t be possible!

Bracing herself, she answered the call. “Hello…”

Before she could say more, she was met with a barnage of scolding from the other end. “Get yourself backstage now!”

Jennifer tumed pale from the scolding. It seemed he really did know.

“Devin, you have to help me… Jennifer pleaded, clutching Devin’s hond.

Her father knew she had angered Connor and was sure to be furious with her. This text is © NôvelDrama/.Org.

“Miss, there’s nothing I can do about this. You better think about how you’re going to explain this to Mr. Christopher.”

If this situation wasn’t handled properly, the Haines family’s years of foundation could be destroyed.

With a heavy heart, Jennifer made her way backstage, only to find Christopher pacing back and forth in the main seat.

“Dad…” Jennifer approached him reluctantly and called out.

“How do you even have the nerve to call me that? Tell me, what have you done!” Christopher was livid

During the intermission earlier. Christopher had tried to discuss a partnership with Rafael, but to his surprise, Rafael had flatly refused and coldly reminded him that he had a wonderful daughter.

Christopher immediately realized this had something to do with Jennifer.

“Dad, I’m sorry!” Jennifer trembled with fear. “I really didn’t know that was Connor Stonnell, so I ended up speaking to him rudely. I’ll find a way to make him forgive our family!”

Christopher nearly stumbled and fell.

Connor returned to the inner lounge, seemingly unchanged but now holding several bottles of water.

Dane thought Connor was incredibly thoughtful. They were all thirsty, and here he was, bringing water.

After opening a bottle, Connor handed it to Flora. She took it and drank several big gulps. Then, Connor screwed the cap back on and put it back in his bag.

The concert was nearing its end. Rafael was taking his final bow on stage.

“I want to thank all my fans who traveled miles to see my concert. It’s your support that makes me who I am today”

Rafael took a deep, ninety–degree bow, under the warm yellow stage lights that highlighted his slightly bent back. He straightened up, half his face illuminated by the warm yellow light, his earring sparkling brilliantly.

He seemed less wild than usual, more gentle.

“Besides, I want to thank someone special here, who pulled me from the darkness and redeemed my life. In this murky world, she was the light that illuminated my path”

Flora rested her chin in her hand, her eyes slightly moist and touched.

As the concert ended, all the fans left with swollen eyes. Kaylee was sobbing uncontrollably, and Dane, not knowing how to comfort her, stood by awkwardly with a pack of tissues,

Outside the grand theater, the crowd was enormous. Everyone was waiting for a ride

“Let’s try to hail a cab and see who can get one first!”

“Holy cow! How are there that many people? The queue has over five hundred people. Will we even get home?

Dane and Alex lamented.

Just then, Connor said calmly, “it’s late, and it’s not safe for you to go home. I’ve already called for rides. They will get you home safely.”

“That’s really kind of you…

Dane and the others scratched their heads and sheepishly smiled, feeling a bit embarrassed.

The more they thought about Connor, the more they liked him. Just now, they had all seen it. Connor only had eyes for Flora!

He’s so devoted and considerate!

“You’re all Flora’s classmates. Of course I have to look after you” Connor nodded

About five minutes later, three cars anived, parked neatly at the theater entrance

It was hard to tell the make of the cars, but Dane and the others knew Connor didn’t come from a wealthy background

They had assumed Connor had called for taxis, but these were private cars. Perhaps they were rented? They appreciated the thoughtful gesture

Connor had already asked for Dane and the others‘ addresses and ordered the rides based on the directions to their homes.

Dane, Alex, and another boy lived along the same route, so they shared one car

Kaylee’s home wasn’t on the way for anyone, so she had a car to herself.

Four boys who lived in the same direction shared another car

Kaylee was a bit scared to be in a car by herself, especially with the driver looking so grumpy….

“Don’t worry, hell get you home safely” Flora reassured her that anyone Connor arranged was the safest option

Kaylee was still a bit frightened, so Flora suggested, “If you want, you can ride with us. We can drop you off first and then head back.”

“No thank you”

Kaylee shook her head. She didn’t want to be a third wheel,

“She’s alone in the car Let’s do this she comes with us, we drop her off first, then turn back. It’s not a big deal.” Dane rolled down the window and shouted out loud

Flora nodded. That could work

After sending them off, Flora and Connor got into their car.

The window rolled down, and the person inside took off their

They had only driven a short distance when a car blocked their path. T sunglasses and mask.

It was Rafael
