Flora’s Guide to a Second Chance at Love and Life
Chapter 329

"How should we handle Yara?" Lando asked, his tone icy.

That woman had schemed against Flora countless times. Letting her off easily just wouldn't cut it.

"Let Uncle Sean deal with her," Flora replied, mindful of the relationship between Jules and Yara as uncle and niece.

Jules gave Flora a grateful look. Even though Yara was a distant relative and they shared no real bond, she was still his niece. He couldn't just stand by and watch her lose her life.

"Don't worry, I'll take care of it. Yara won't trouble you again," Jules reassured.

Flora nodded lazily. With Yara under Jules' watch, her days were numbered.

"Master, why don't you stay at The Red Scorpions for a while?" Lando asked eagerly, rubbing his hands together.

It was rare for Flora to visit Ruby Path, and he had tons of technical questions to ask her.

"I can't. School's starting soon, and I need to head back," Flora said, thinking of the upcoming semester.

"Alright then," Lando replied, feeling a bit bitter. He accused Flora of prioritizing love over friendship in his mind.

The news of The Red Scorpions and Empire Base forming an alliance spread quickly through Ruby Path, shocking everyone. The two had been notorious rivals since forever, and now they were joining forces? Curious minds soon discovered it was all because of a woman named Flora. Her name echoed throughout Ruby Path, and many wanted to see her in person.

Jules took Yara away, and those who had betrayed Empire Base were expelled from The Red Scorpions. Once cast out by both major forces, no one else dared to take them in. In the ruthless world of Ruby Path, survival without protection was impossible.

Empire Base's disciples were thrilled with the outcome and held Flora in high regard. They had heard it was Flora who secured the miracle drugs for them.

Master Jules, a highly respected figure, treated Flora like his own daughter. Even the boss of The Red Scorpions was her disciple. They were ready to worship Flora as a deity.

When Flora was about to leave, every disciple came to see her off, their reluctance evident. The three hall masters wished she could stay forever. When Flora first arrived, everyone had looked down on her. But within just over a month, she had won them over with her skills.

The plane left Ruby Path and landed in Cedarvale. Raul and Henrik knew Flora was returning and didn't go to work that day. Instead, they went to the supermarket early in the morning to buy lots of ingredients. At eleven in the morning, Connor and Flora arrived at the Irving family home.

"Oh my darling daughter, you're finally back! Let me take a look at you!" Raul exclaimed, opening the door with excitement.

He looked Flora up and down, his face full of concern. "Living away from home must have been tough, right? Look at you, you've lost weight."

Flora couldn't help but laugh. She hadn't lost any weight. Connor had been cooking delicious meals for her every day; she had actually gained a bit.

"Uncle Sean, these are some local specialties Flora and I picked up. Hope you like them," Connor said, holding a variety of items.

Raul was overjoyed, beaming from ear to ear. It wasn't about the gifts themselves, but the thought behind them.

"Great, come on in, dinner will be ready soon," he said.

While waiting, Henrik brought out two plates of chilled watermelon.

"Bro, you're the best!" Flora laughed, spearing a piece with a fork and savoring it.

Connor went to help in the kitchen, while Flora, without a care, sprawled on the sofa, eating watermelon and scrolling through her phone. She had posted a status update when she landed, and her phone was buzzing with messages.

"Connor, I want some water!" Flora called out, feeling the need for something less sweet after all the watermelon.

Connor quickly brought out a glass of water from the kitchen. Flora took it, drinking deeply, and smacked her lips in satisfaction. She replied to a few important messages, holding her phone in one hand. Soon, the meal was served, filled with Flora's favorite dishes. Raul and Henrik kept piling food onto her plate, worried she wouldn't eat enough.

"Dad, Flora was only gone for a month. Is all this fuss necessary?" Henrik asked, amused.

Raul, hardly eating himself, just watched Flora with misty eyes, making Henrik both laugh and cry.

"It is necessary! My daughter is worth it!" Raul huffed. "As if you weren't the one constantly asking when Flora would be back."

Flora laughed, "If you miss me this much now, what will you do when I start school?"

New students at the University of Maple Grove were required to live on campus, meaning Flora would only come home during long holidays.

Raul straightened up. "Your brother and I have talked it over. We're planning to move to Maple Grove. That way, you can come home more often. We've already picked out a house near your school and are preparing to move the company there."

This past month, they had been busy with this plan. The Irving family had worked hard to establish themselves in Cedarvale, and now they were leaving it all for Flora. She was too talented to be confined to Cedarvale; they needed to keep up with her pace.

Flora was deeply moved by their decision.

...

In the blink of an eye, it was time for the new academic year to start at the University of Maple Grove. Raul, Henrik, and Connor all accompanied Flora to the university.
