Flora’s Guide to a Second Chance at Love and Life novel Chapter 1494

Seeing Fiona spring into action, everyone was naturally eager to learn a thing or two from her. Picking up a few skills from her demonstration would be a real bonus.

Fiona nodded, placed her pen down, and made her way toward Allen. The crowd parted like the Red Sea, letting her through. When she reached Allen, she noticed the dark crimson blood pooling beneath him.

The pad beneath him was soaked, and the sight of the ominous dark blood made Fiona squint slightly; clearly, Allen's situation was more dire than she'd thought.

She glanced over at Christina, a cocktail of emotions in her eyes. "Christina, who usually looks after Allen's day-to-day needs?" Fiona asked.

A simple question, yet it sent a chill down Christina's spine. All eyes were on her, and she felt a wave of panic.

Christina wasn't sure if Fiona knew anything, but after a moment's hesitation, she forced a smile and said, "We've got a housekeeper who cooks for him."

Admitting to slipping hallucinogens into Allen's nightly milk wasn't an option; getting caught would spell disaster for her.

"Is the housekeeper reliable?" Fiona asked, a playful glint in her eyes. "Relax, I'm just curious."

After a pause, Christina nodded. "Yeah, she's reliable. She's been with Allen since he started his career, for many years now."

Every word Christina uttered was measured, hoping Fiona wouldn't catch on to anything. But no matter how well she played her part, eyes never lie.
