Flora’s Guide to a Second Chance at Love and Life novel Chapter 1275

It looks like the Gilbert family has indeed made a secret connection with the Enforcement Division. And who is that woman who's suddenly become the most prestigious lady in the Martial World?

"What nonsense are you spouting!" Gerald snapped at Jacob, giving him a swift kick. What made them think they'd rank in the top five? Where did they get such confidence?

"Uncle, Dad, haven't you noticed? That woman, she's—" Jacob tried to keep his voice down, hinting that the woman was clearly Flora.

"Don't mention that woman to me!" Joey fumed. "I've figured her out; she's just a petty little thing. Our dear Flora, on the other hand, she's in a league of her own!"

He acted like he was all buddy-buddy with her, stirring up suspicion among the big families. If he actually knew her, he'd be thrilled to ride her coattails, but they don't know each other at all!

Jacob and Carly exchanged a glance, opting to stay quiet. Joey would figure it out eventually.

Feeling a bit irritated, Joey glanced at Jacob and Carly before heading back to the Gilbert estate. Mae also went back reluctantly.

Jacob and Carly were sent back to the training ground, but after this incident, nobody dared to mess with them. Instead, they were treated like royalty.

...

"Really?" Flora teased, clearly not convinced. "In my heart, there's only you. No one else matters," Connor said softly, wrapping his arm around her waist. Flora was the only one who caught his attention, the only one in his heart.

Flora smiled, though she couldn't quite shake the natural hostility she felt toward Tara. Maybe it was because of the shared last name. She couldn't help but be a bit more curious about her.

"Connor, you mentioned my mom's last name was Moore, and so is Tara's. Do you think there's any connection?" Flora asked casually, not giving it much thought. Connor didn't respond, but his eyes deepened, as dark and mysterious as ink.

As they continued their conversation, Joey and the others returned. From a distance, they could see two figures standing at the estate's entrance. There was something familiar about them.
