Flora’s Guide to a Second Chance at Love and Life novel Chapter 1048

They couldn't help but glance over at the scene just a little way off. There was Flora, stepping into the Maybach, surrounded by admirers. She looked every bit like a cherished little princess, basking in their attention. Meanwhile, they glanced back at themselves, feeling utterly disheveled.

At the Golden Hotel, Ray had snagged the biggest private room for Flora and the gang. Mr. Valerio, Mr. Colin, Kate, and a few of Cynthia's cousins had all made it. With Connor, Jules, and Mr. Richard in tow, the room was almost bursting at the seams.

“That kid's as quiet as a clam,” she added with a sigh.

Flora chuckled softly, “Aunt Kate, you're too sweet. Just call me Flora.”

Kate couldn't help but be charmed by Flora. The young woman was not only stunning and kind-hearted, but she also possessed a grace that outshone many high society women. Kate secretly wished Flora could join the Haines family through marriage. After all, there were still a few eligible bachelors in the clan.

Several of Cynthia's brothers were still unattached. But Flora was already spoken for! Kate cast a slightly envious glance at Connor, seated next to Flora.

Connor, with his mere presence and silent demeanor, commanded attention. His gaze was typically cool and detached, but when he looked at Flora, his deep, dark eyes were filled with unmistakable warmth and love. Even though her nephews were impressive, they didn’t quite measure up.

Cynthia's brothers couldn't help but be captivated by Flora, but alas, she was already taken.

Connor, ever the perceptive man, sensed their admiration and narrowed his eyes slightly. “Flora,” he called out.
