Flora’s Guide to a Second Chance at Love and Life novel Chapter 1506

"Doesn't matter? How can you say that?" The woman huffed, her hand twitching as if she might hit something.

But she caught herself, realizing now wasn't the time to lash out. She glanced over at Keaton, then at Fiona, and begrudgingly lowered her hand, easing her tone a bit.

"Tyler, like it or not, we're family. We're doing this for you, honestly. Wouldn't it be nice to come with us and find out about your real parents? Aren't you curious?"

She tried to play the logic-and-heart card, but Tyler wasn't one to be easily swayed.

He was well aware that these two called themselves his aunt and uncle, and he knew just how tough life was for him at the orphanage, yet they never considered bringing him back. Until now, that is.

Funny how a newspaper article could change everything, turning him into a potential goldmine in their eyes.

Without the promise of money, they probably wouldn't have bothered finding him, let alone taking three days off work to do it.

"I don't care," Tyler said flatly.

The couple was stunned by Tyler's defiance, their faces a mix of shock and anger.

"You're really an ungrateful brat!" The man, seething, lunged to grab Tyler, determined to drag him away.

If sweet talk didn’t work, he'd try brute force—after all, he was Tyler's uncle, right?

Keaton jumped in to protect Tyler, with the woman grabbing onto Keaton, and everything quickly descended into chaos. Fiona stood her ground, holding onto Tyler's hand firmly, showing no signs of letting go.

The man sensed something was off and angrily shoved Fiona. "What are you doing? Holding onto my nephew at your age?"

His tone was dripping with scorn, but the woman quickly nudged him. She'd noticed Fiona's designer clothes, the kind only the factory manager's daughter wore. If Tyler was close to Fiona, they'd have money worries no more.
