Flora’s Guide to a Second Chance at Love and Life
Chapter 366

The girl's voice had a playful lilt, almost cocky.

Cynthia scratched the back of her head, staring after Flora's retreating figure, bewildered. "Why do I feel like Flora was acting so ridiculous just now..."

Such a teenager thing!

Flora used to be so aloof, never like this.

Eilies bit her lip, sensing the change in Flora too. It was as if Flora had started to see them not just as roommates, but as friends.

Cynthia rubbed her hands together. "Maybe I should pick up Jillian's stuff..."

Before too many people notice!

Otherwise, if this gets out, it won't do Flora any good.

Eilies stopped her. "Haven't you figured out Flora's temperament by now?"

If they picked it up once, Flora could just toss it again.

Cynthia hesitated, and Eilies imitated Flora's earlier tone. "Sis, you can always trust Flora."

...

Flora made a beeline for the Fashion Design Institute.

Daria was surprised to see her.

"Professor, can I see Odelia?"

Flora asked bluntly.

Daria hadn't expected Flora to take the initiative to see Odelia and was even more astonished.

But of course, she agreed.

Between students, how big could their grudges be? If they could talk it out, that would be best. She immediately took Flora to replace Odelia.

Odelia was writing a reflection paper, her eyes burning with hatred when she saw Flora.

Having swapped the speech scripts, Daria had decided to give her a major demerit, which would be reported to the school first thing tomorrow.

Her family was just scraping by, and she needed a scholarship to barely make it at the University of Maple Grove.

Now, with a major demerit, she would lose any chance at scholarships for four years, and any hopes of being honored or recognized were gone too, let alone getting any good opportunities. Her entire college life, even her future, had changed because of Flora. How could she not hate Flora!

After Daria brought Flora in, she left.

With her there, the two girls definitely couldn't open up to each other.

"You don't have to look at me like that; I'm not the one who made you this way."

Flora stretched out her leg, hooked a chair over, and sat down.

"Ha." Odelia scoffed coldly. "What are you here for then? To gloat?"

Flora, resting her elbows on the back of the chair, looked at her leisurely. "No, I'm here to help you."

...

The video of Flora beating up Jillian was uploaded online, and in less than half a day, it was trending.

Terms like "top scholar hitting someone" and "Flora bullying classmates" filled the trending search list, casting Flora in a negative light.

Having just made a splash during the training assessment and the opening ceremony, Flora was at the peak of her popularity when the video thrust her into the eye of the storm.

Commenter: I told you Flora had a temper! Look at how scary she looks in the video, as if she's going to devour that girl.

Commenter: There's always been something off about Flora. In high school, she often couldn't control herself, beating up classmates and teachers. Not even a month into college, and she's already showing her true colors.

Commenter: Is this the quality of students from a top national university like University of Maple Grove? Students daring to fight in broad daylight at school, is this because of the leniency from the University of Maple Grove administration? Just because she's a top scholar, does that mean she can do whatever she wants at school?

Commenter: Don't play dead @University of Maple Grove. Flora bullying her classmate, you must give us an explanation!

Commenter: Sisters, I found an old photo of Flora, ugh, so ugly, totally looks like a tramp.

The netizens were thrilled by the video, not caring about the actual circumstances, simply convinced that Flora was attacking someone unprovoked.
