Flora’s Guide to a Second Chance at Love and Life novel Chapter 1056

In no time, a bunch of cops barged in. The scene in the rental was enough to make anyone's hair stand on end, especially with Liam sprawled out on the floor, bloodied up. It was a real shocker.

What kind of beef leads to this kind of mess?

"Officers, it's them! They're the ones who did this to me! You gotta arrest them!" Liam shouted, his voice cracking with desperation.

The officer in charge, a guy barely out of his twenties with a face that meant business, turned to Henrik after hearing Liam's claims. As soon as he laid eyes on Henrik, he froze.

Why does this guy look so familiar?

After a quick scroll through his phone, it clicked. "Wait, you're Henrik? Flora's brother?" he asked, sounding a bit unsure.

Henrik blinked, taken aback. How did they know Flora? "What happened to my sister?" he blurted out without thinking.

Whoa! So he really is Flora's brother! The young officer's face broke into a grin, giving Henrik a friendly pat on the shoulder like they were old pals. "No worries, mate. Since you're Flora's brother, it's like we're family. Flora's been a real hero to the Haines clan!"

Turns out, this young officer was Cynthia's cousin. The Haines family had already made sure to remember Henrik and Raul's names and faces, all to thank Flora. And now, here they were, face to face.

The Haines family... Cynthia, huh?

Henrik caught on quickly. He'd heard about what went down at school with his sister earlier. Now that he knew Flora was okay, he was here to deal with Cecelia's situation.

Liam was gobsmacked. Why were the cops chitchatting with Henrik instead of cuffing him? "Officer, you gotta be fair! Look what they did to me! Arrest him!" Liam fumed, his voice shaking with pain and anger.

"What's all the yelling for?" the young officer shot back, clearly annoyed. Henrik was Flora’s brother—could he really be a bad guy? And if a big shot like him was at this rundown rental, there had to be a story.

"So, what's the deal, brother?" the officer asked Henrik, dropping the formalities.
