Flora’s Guide to a Second Chance at Love and Life novel Chapter 1420

Fiona strolled out of school, following the location Mikey had sent her. She found his car tucked away in a quiet alley. She hopped into the car, immediately meeting his eyes, which were dripping with sorrow.

"Boss..." he murmured, sounding like he was channeling some ghostly spirit.

Fiona glanced at him with a poker face. "Speak clearly."

"Boss, you told me to park far from the school gate so I wouldn't embarrass you. I think I parked far enough, didn't I?"

Mikey wore an expression that seemed to say, "Is nothing sacred anymore?"

He'd gone out of his way to pick up his boss, and she still wasn't satisfied. Where was the justice in that?

"It’s alright," Fiona chuckled, a grin spreading wider than usual, showing off a cute little canine tooth. "Next time, find somewhere even more out of sight."

Mikey: "..."

That stung a bit.

Was he really that embarrassing?

Mikey decided to drop the subject, afraid Fiona might actually drive him nuts. He handed her a hefty bag of snacks, set it on her lap, and started the car, heading towards the nursing home.

Fiona, just like her friend Flora, loved her sweets, so their friends always made sure to stock up on treats for her during drives. The twist? While Flora craved candies, Fiona was all about those spicy snacks.

"Boss, ever since Big Brother Zhang got locked up, his kid brother's been stuck in a nursing home, and it sounds like he's had a tough go of it there," Mikey chatted casually.

Sawyer, one of Fiona's crew, had ended up in jail after taking down a rapist and injuring a few others, labeled as a dangerous criminal. Back then, Fiona was off on Lone Island, oblivious to what was happening back home. By the time she returned, Sawyer had been executed.

Feeling a heavy weight of guilt, Fiona had people dig into the whereabouts of Sawyer’s only younger brother. Coming back to Cedarvale was partly because of him.
