Flora’s Guide to a Second Chance at Love and Life novel Chapter 1788

The car rolled up to the Woods estate, its grand entrance looming before them. Tyler knocked on the massive wooden doors a few times, but no one answered. It was Nash who, seizing the moment when no one was around, managed to get them inside.

“What took you so long?” Nash asked, his voice tinged with anxiety. At the main branch of the Woods family, he didn't exactly call the shots.
