Flora’s Guide to a Second Chance at Love and Life novel Chapter 915

But that thought vanished as quickly as it came. Joe shook it off. He'd only caught a glimpse of her once at the competition, and that was purely by chance, seeing her briefly without her mask in the lounge. Someone like her showing up here? No way. Must’ve been someone with a similar look. With a sigh, he set the registration form aside. The odds of him ever meeting her again in this lifetime were slim to none.

...

Connor first took Flora to the hospital to get her stitches out, and then they headed back to the villa. Amanda and Ethan were lounging on the couch in the living room.

"Hey, big bro, Flora!" Ethan greeted cheerfully.

"We're back," Amanda smiled warmly. "Flora, how's your hand doing?"

"All healed up," Flora replied, giving her hand a little wave. The stitches were out, and now all it needed was a bit of ointment—nothing major.

"That's great to hear." Amanda grinned before diving into another topic. "Flora, I've got a couple of friends who are dying for some of your perfume. They're willing to pay top dollar, but if you're swamped, don't worry about it."

"Your friends? I can't take money from them," Flora insisted. "I've been a bit tied up lately, but I'll carve out some time to make it for them."

"Wonderful, just don't overdo it. There's no rush," Amanda said, clearly pleased, before heading off to call her friends.

"Flora, do you know Féraphine?" Ethan asked, leaning in conspiratorially.

Flora paused, curious. "Why do you ask?"

"Well, I heard that Féraphine isn't just an amazing doctor but also a top-notch perfumer," Ethan said, pulling a face. "Today, some woman claimed she knows Féraphine really well and was throwing shade at Mom."

Flora blinked in surprise. What woman? Knows her well? This was news to her.

"Féraphine's perfumes are like gold dust—super rare. That lady bragged she was tight with Féraphine and could get loads, like a hundred grand a bottle."

Flora raised an eyebrow. "Seriously? A hundred grand? My perfumes are worth more than that, surely?"

"She must've bought a fake," Flora concluded with a knowing look.
