Flora’s Guide to a Second Chance at Love and Life novel Chapter 977

Candace getting nabbed by the law enforcement team—wasn't that all Connor's doing? Now he's got Moss sending word that Jaden can see her. What's Connor up to?

Jaden's head was spinning, but he couldn't focus on that now. He was too worried about Candace, and rushed off with the enforcement team to see her.

In the visitation room, Candace was dragged out by two officers in uniform. The second she spotted Jaden, she lunged at him, "Jaden, please! Get me out of here, please!"

Jaden was taken aback seeing her like this. She was covered in blood, crisscrossed with scars, and reeked of it. She wasn't the beautiful Candace he knew.

His heart twisted painfully.

"Candace, take a breath," Jaden said, not backing away as he pulled her into a hug. "I’m getting you out of here."

"Mr. Lin, you can’t take her," the officers said, blocking his way with stone-cold faces. "We're only letting you visit out of respect for Mr. Howard. Candace made a scene at the Falcone Estate, and by the book, she's got to be held for at least five days."

"I don’t want to! I can’t stay here!" Candace cried, panic-stricken.

She regretted going to Flora, regretted going to the Falcone Estate. But it was too late for regrets now!

"I’ll stand surety for her," Jaden insisted, placing a reassuring hand on her shoulder.

"The Falcones specifically requested her detention. We can't just release her," chuckled one of the officers. "Mr. Lin, take a look at this."

They handed him a phone. On it was a video of Candace shouting insults at the gates of the Falcone Estate. The words were harsh.

Jaden was stunned. Candace had always been so gentle, so vulnerable around him. He’d never seen this side of her.

"Jaden, I messed up, I messed up..." Candace sobbed, her voice full of despair. She couldn't bear to stay here another second—this place was hell to her!
