Flora’s Guide to a Second Chance at Love and Life
Chapter 699

"Really?" The man looked skeptical. "I've met Flora before. Yeah, she might come off as a bit cold, but she's always polite. I can't imagine her saying something like that." "Let's just drop it and get back to work."

Mr. Tanner said, setting aside the application form with 'Flora' written on it, losing the enthusiasm he had earlier.

The man still couldn't shake the feeling that Flora wouldn't say those things, but seeing Mr. Tanner's disinterest, he wisely chose to stay silent.

"Why him?"

Mr. Tanner looked at Shawn's application form, surprised.

Dr. Ray had brought Shawn to him, asking for a favor. He had made it clear to them that it would take at least three months for Shawn's hand to fully recover, yet the medical competition was in two months. Why would he sign up?

He knew Dr. Ray well enough to know that even if Shawn was being reckless, he wouldn't indulge him by submitting an application when his injury hadn't healed.

Moreover, there would be a comprehensive check during the interview, and with his injured hand, he wouldn't pass.

Could it be... that Shawn's hand was healed?

Mr. Tanner frowned, thinking there was no one in Austenberg currently capable of that.

"Sir!"

Just as he was puzzling over this, his assistant knocked and entered, his face alight with excitement.

"What's up?" Mr. Tanner asked, frowning.

"News from Lone Island, Miss Abbey has boarded her flight! She lands at 5 PM, and they've asked us to pick her up!"

The assistant's words stirred up excitement in the entire office!

That was Abbey White from Lone Island!

In Austenberg, no, in the whole world, she was revered like a deity!

No woman could compare to her.

Just her name could excite them for days!

Hearing this, Mr. Tanner also quickly stood up, every cell in his body buzzing with excitement.

The White family from Lone Island was a height they could never reach in their lifetimes.

Her coming over this time was for the medical competition's training.

It was strange, indeed. Every year before the competition, Lone Island would send someone for training since the content of Lone Island's exams was diverse and chaotic mostly consisting of questions unique to Lone Island not found in textbooks.

Without training, even the most brilliant medical prodigies might not score well.

But Abbey, being an elder of the White family, had a revered status. Her personal visit to Austenberg was indeed surprising.

Regardless of the reason for Abbey's

visit, her arrival was a feather in Austenberg's cap, especially since other countries only received visits from lesser branches of the White family. Only Austenberg had

honor of hosting a direct

descendant of the White family!

The assistant had said Abbey's plane lands at 5 PM, which was less than two hours from now. "Let's get ready to pick her up."

Mr. Tanner said solemnly.

We must not be late!

Meanwhile, at the University of Maple Grove's medical lab.

In the study room, Flora was idly playing with her phone, with Darcy and Shawn opposite her.

They were deeply engrossed in solving practice questions.

Darcy hadn't received an application

form, knowing it was due to her own lack of skill, but she wasn't

discouraged. She had also obtained some materials from Dr. Ray,

planning to prepare for two years later.

"Flora, Flora, check this out." Shawn, after wracking his brain and still unable to replace the answer, turned to Flora in desperation.

Darcy didn't know the answer either; in fact, she couldn't even understand the question. Seeing Shawn asking, she also eagerly leaned in to listen. Flora, who had been texting Connor, glanced at the question and without a second thought, gave the answer.
