Flora’s Guide to a Second Chance at Love and Life novel Chapter 878

Darn those Smiths, of all the times to pop up, they had to choose now.

"You folks keep chatting, I'll go sort this out," Karter grumbled, storming out with a face like thunder.

"I'm coming too!" Adrian piped in, quickly following behind.

"Who exactly are the Smiths?" Flora asked, her brow furrowed in curiosity.

Kruz, well-versed in the ongoing drama, explained, "The Smiths are another racing dynasty, much like the Browns. They're actually stronger than the Browns, which bugs them to no end that the Browns are among the top four families. So, they love stirring the pot whenever they can."

Upon hearing this, Flora's eyes narrowed slightly.

...

"What do the Browns want this time? If you're here to cause trouble, you'd better clear off!" Karter barked the moment he stepped outside, unable to hold back his frustration at the sight of the Smiths crowding his doorstep.

Normally, Karter was pretty easy-going, but that didn't mean he wouldn't blow his top when provoked, as he'd shown when he tore into Tommy during that infamous meeting. Truth be told, he had a bit of a short fuse.

He was enjoying a nice chat with Flora, and now these intruders were ruining his mood!

Adrian rarely saw his dad lose it on anyone other than himself, and while he was surprised, he also found it a bit thrilling.

The head honcho of the Smith family, Zachary, was fifty-five, like Karter, but looked a good deal older, with hair more salt than pepper.

"Why all the fuss?" Zachary chuckled, "I heard the Browns had a little hiccup the other day, thought I'd drop by to offer my sympathies."

"Yeah, right! Like a fox in the henhouse, you're up to no good!" Adrian shot back.

Zachary chuckled again, not even bothering to deny it, "Word is, you've got a stash of miracle drugs."
