Flora’s Guide to a Second Chance at Love and Life novel Chapter 125

Chapter 125 

Flora woke up to find the sky outside was already darkening. She’d slept too long, and her head throbbed with a slight headache. 

Throwing off the light blanket, she propped herself up to see Connor. He was still in the same position as when she had fallen asleep. When he noticed she’s awake, he put down his book and handed her a glass of water from the coffee table. “Here, drink some water.” 

The water was sweetened with honey, and the temperature was just right. 

“I’m going to the restroom.” After downing the glass, she got up and headed to the bathroom. 

Her phone on the coffee table vibrated. Connor glanced at it casually, but paused when he saw the name Aaron on the screen. 

A few minutes later, Flora came out. 

Connor looked at her, “Someone sent you a message while you were in the bathroom.”

Monday, at Westbrook High School. 

Kaylee’s arrival caused a sensation throughout the school. 

The incident at the fashion design contest had become well–known; Rafael had modeled for a newcomer designer.

Luckily, she ran into Dane and some familiar faces at the school entrance, which gave her a bit more courage to enter Class Z somewhat composedly. 

As soon as she sat down, people from Class Z swarmed around her. 

“Kaylee, you’re so amazing! You even know how to design clothes!” 

“We all watched the live stream, and you looked so good on stage. You were literally shining!” 

Kaylee, overwhelmed by the praise, could only offer an awkward laugh. 

“The highlight should be her ability to get Rafael as her model, right?” May came over, her tone laced with sarcasm, “Kaylee, you truly surprise us all. So quiet in class, yet behind the scenes, you’re up to no end of dirty tricks.” 

“What do you mean?” Kaylee’s face paled as she looked up at May. Kaylee was always timid and didn’t even dare to speak loudly. 

courage. Saying this one sentence took all her 

May was unfazed, “You know exactly what I mean. How could Rafael possibly agree to be your model if there wasn’t some special deal between you two?”
