Flora’s Guide to a Second Chance at Love and Life novel Chapter 244

Chapter 244 

At the auction house, it was unheard of to give away items for free. 

The crowd’s gaze towards the Irving father and son duo was a mix of curiosity and respect. To be so favored by the auction house, their status must be exceptional, likely influential figures. 

Raul and Henrik exchanged bewildered looks. They hadn’t anticipated the auction house would gift them spices. Raul, feeling triumphant at Wade’s envious glare, thanked the staff and took the spices. 

In a room on the third floor, Ray eyed Flora suspiciously. “Flora, did you set this up?” 

Flora just smiled, saying nothing. 

“Why would the auction house gift spices to the Irving family?” Yvonne furned, stomping her feet in frustration. The Irving family had stolen the spotlight again! 

Wade’s expression darkened, but soon, a sinister smile spread across his lips as an icy glint flashed in his eyes. The underground auction house was a place of mixed repute; trouble was expected. He swore the Irving family would pay! 

The final three bottles of spices sold for an astronomical sum, nearly one hundred million, marking the near end of the auction. Gradually, people started to leave. Raul and Henrik also got up to leave. 

Just outside the auction house, a group blocked their path. A man and woman slowly emerged from the crowd. Raul and Henrik tensed. at the sight of them. 

“Wade, what do you want?” Henrik stepped forward, positioning Raul behind him. Wade’s eyes under his mask gleamed coldly. Without a word, he just waved his hand. The thugs blocking Raul and Henrik’s path charged at them! 

Back in the third–floor suite, Crimson walked in and handed Flora a card. “Here, darling, the money from the spices sale after commission, all two hundred and sixty million of it.” 

Flora pocketed the card. 

Crimson winked, “But I heard Jules is back. With that kind of money, I’m afraid it won’t be enough to fend him off.” 

Jutes was always focused on medical research, requiring substantial funds. For the past two years, it had mostly been Flora sponsoring him. Every time an auction ended, and Jules knew she had money, he’d pester her relentlessly until he got some. 

Ray watched as Crimson handed Flora the card filled with a fortune, connecting it to her earlier call that had the auction house gift spices to the Irving family. His heart skipped a beat as he stared at Flora with newfound understanding. “Flora, are you Séraphine?!” Three pairs of eyes turned towards him, their looks almost mocking Ray’s realization.
