Flora’s Guide to a Second Chance at Love and Life novel Chapter 1716

Seeing Jasmine leave, Shelly wasn't about to let Tyler off the hook that easily. She immediately turned all her fury towards him.

"Who do you think you are, sticking your nose in my business?" she snapped.

Tyler didn't even give her a second glance. Once Jasmine was out of sight, he pivoted and headed back to his dorm room.

Shelly, fuming, let loose a string of choice words. With a steely gaze, she turned to the person standing next to her. "Find out who this guy is. I want him to pay."

"Yes, Miss," the man beside her replied, trying to stay calm. "But Miss, your father is waiting for you at home. Shouldn't we head back..."

"I know," Shelly cut him off with a wave.

Back at his dorm, Tyler found an email from Fiona. She needed him to dig up proof of the Woods and Stonnell families' shady dealings and track down Gerald.

Fiona had plans to head to Center College in a week. The Woods and Stonnell families got wind of it and had already planned an ambush for her and Jackson. But they were out of luck—Fiona set off three days after Tyler got the heads-up.

The next morning, Shelly got her hands on Tyler's dossier. It was nearly empty, which made her chuckle.

"A genius but an orphan. No wonder he's got such a fiery streak, even daring to stand up to me," she thought aloud.

As she leafed through the pages, her eyes locked onto the last one. It detailed how Tyler had been taken back to the Reynolds family in the Capital. She understood the harsh hand life had dealt him—abandonment, being found, forced marriage, and even causing a death the Reynolds family shrugged off. Despite such a tragic life, Tyler had grown into someone impressive.

Shelly wondered if she could have come out as strong in his position.
