Flora’s Guide to a Second Chance at Love and Life novel Chapter 1007

He could tell Flora was fuming. He turned to Lydia, eyes cold as ice. “Miss, you need to leave Rose's Studio immediately. From this moment on, you're banned. And forget about entering any fashion design competitions we sponsor.”

“Mr. Howell!” Lydia's voice shook with panic.

“Get her out of here!” Howell cut her off, too busy worrying about calming Flora.

“Not just her,” said Flora, her voice calm as she glanced at the two who'd backed Lydia earlier. They froze, fear etched on their faces.

“They bad-mouthed me too.”

“Escort them out as well,” Howell ordered the security team without hesitation.

“Mr. Howell, we messed up! We didn’t mean it! Miss, please, forgive us!” The two women were pale, practically pleading. Crossing Rose's Studio meant their careers were toast.

They’d underestimated Flora, thinking she was a nobody. Who knew she had Howell on her side?

Flora didn’t even bother to look their way. “We only said one thing about you! Do you really have to be so harsh?”

Security moved in, and the women were frantic, terrified of being blackballed from all Rose's Studio events. That would be the end of the road for them.

Lydia couldn’t find the words to beg, but her eyes were full of venom as she glared at Flora.

The other designers stood back, too scared to speak, though they thought the punishment might be over the top. But then again, Lydia and her pals had really run their mouths.

“Yeah, I’m bullying you. Got a problem with that?” Flora said with a sly smile.
