Flora’s Guide to a Second Chance at Love and Life novel Chapter 525

Flora's plan had backfired spectacularly, and now she was the one nursing injuries. She stormed out, her face a mix of anger and embarrassment, not bothering to say a word. Flora watched her struggle to her feet and head for the door, maintaining her silence until Alexa reached for the doorknob.

Flora swiftly moved to block her, standing firmly in the doorway. "Leaving just like that?"

Alexa shot her a fierce look. "What else do you want? My head's spinning; I might even have a concussion. If something serious happens to me, I won't let you off the hook."

Flora couldn't help but chuckle at the absurdity of Alexa's reasoning. Narrowing her eyes, she said, "We have no real beef, yet you keep coming after me. I'm giving you a chance to apologize, and we can call it even."

"Apologize to you? Not a chance!" Alexa sneered. So what if she had locked Flora in the bathroom? No one saw it happen. And now, she was the one injured. Flora had some nerve to demand an apology.

"Do you think just because you're pretty, everyone should revolve around you?" Alexa's jealousy of Flora's nearly perfect face fueled her venomous words.

"Get real, Flora. If anyone should be begging for forgiveness, it's you. I'll tell everyone you pushed me on purpose. Trust me, they'll believe me over you."

Alexa met Flora's icy, unyielding gaze and spat out, "Haven't you noticed? Everyone in the lab dislikes you. What makes you think you belong here?"

"Move! I'm leaving!" Alexa shoved towards Flora with all her might, hoping to see her fall as disgracefully as she had, maybe even marring that flawless face.

But before her hand could reach Flora, it was caught. Flora's pale hand gripped Alexa's arm through her sleeve, making Alexa's naturally darker skin look even darker by contrast.
