Flora’s Guide to a Second Chance at Love and Life novel Chapter 18

Chapter 18 

Flora’s expression didn’t change as she quickly picked up a pen and wrote down the meanings beneath the words. 

Watching her skillfully write out the meanings of all the words, Jade’s eyes widened in disbelief. These words would challenge even a college student, yet Flora seemed to handle them effortlessly. 

“Ms. Jade, how did I do? Did I get them all right?” Flora glanced at Jade, a smile playing on her lips, though her smile had a mischievous glint. 

Jade’s face turned sour, and gritting her teeth, she wrote down a long string of words. She hadn’t been able to define it during her graduate studies and had been penalized by copying it numerous times. 

Flora was still a high school student. She definitely couldn’t recognize it. 

Everyone saw the word she wrote, and their expression turned uneasy. Jade was clearly trying to make things difficult for Flora with an overly challenging word. 

Cold sparks flew from Raul and Henrik’s eyes. 

Flora watched Jade playfully and leisurely picked up her pen, writing down one word after another. 

Jade’s face turned ashen at what she wrote. How could it be? How could she know the answer? 

“Ms. Jade.” At that moment, Flora spoke. “You’ve tested me so much, I’d like to give you a little test. Can you tell me what this term means?” 

Flora wrote down a whopping twenty–eight–letter word. 

Jade, breaking out in a cold sweat, looked at it and, after a moment, said through gritted teeth, “it’s xenotransplantation!” Flora laughed, and the teachers who were present laughed as well. 

It’s normal to not know such a long word, but the awkward part was Ms. Jade’s previous attempt to stump Flora with a long word As a student, Flora had answered correctly, but as a teacher, Jade had gotten it wrong, which was quite embarrassing Hearing their laughter, Jade knew she had misspoken and, in a panic, corrected herself, “I was wrong. It should be vasoconstriction!” Henrik coldly said, “Mr. Trevor, it seems the teachers at your school don’t have a very strong knowledge base. With her level, I’m quite skeptical if she’s truly qualified for this job.” 

Jade’s face turned even paler, and she saw Flora smiling at her, saying word for word, “The actual meaning of this term is anti disestablishmentarianism.” 

No one doubted Flora’s grades were falsified anymore. She recognized so many advanced words, so getting a perfect score in Spanish was not surprising. 

The next test was on humanities. 

Geography, political science, and history teachers each gave her a few questions. Flora merely glanced at them before beginning to speak, her answers complete and fluent, almost identical to the correct ones but even more concise.
