Flora’s Guide to a Second Chance at Love and Life novel Chapter 476

Imperial Tech's computer science department has always been top-notch, whereas the University of Maple Grove is renowned for its medical school. So, at the annual intercollegiate computer competition, Imperial Tech almost always clinches the top spot, with Maple Grove typically finishing second.

But this year...

Mr. Jurado couldn't help but steal a glance at Flora. Maybe her presence would shake things up. He had a gut feeling that with Flora on the team, they might just take home the gold!

Mr. Jurado drew an early number, third in line, so it wasn't long before the University of Maple Grove's team took the stage. Brianna, Ivan, Maddox, and the others settled in front of their computers. Below each computer were tablets with styluses for writing their answers. Their responses would be projected for the audience to see.

“You might as well sit this one out,” Brianna told Flora. Given the difficulty of the questions, it seemed impossible that Flora could solve them. If she wrote something ridiculous, it would only embarrass the University of Maple Grove.

“Are you sure?” Flora raised an eyebrow at Brianna.

“You know your own level, right?” Brianna was getting impatient. Jules had just praised her, and she wanted to shine, not be dragged down by Flora. After all, they were teammates now, and Flora's poor performance would reflect badly on her too.

“Fine.” Flora stopped talking, hooked her foot around the chair leg, and slouched down, looking utterly uninterested.

Brianna thought she was speaking quietly but forgot she was still mic’d up. Their conversation was clearly heard by everyone.

“That Ivan is indeed promising, quite impressive,” remarked the judges, nodding in approval as they watched his answers appear on the big screen. Clear-headed and logical, a promising candidate indeed.

“That Brianna isn’t bad either, logical and meticulous in her approach.”

“The University of Maple Grove’s team members are quite impressive, except for that Flora…” a female judge laughed helplessly. She didn’t even know what words to use to describe the situation.

Aisha blinked, “Looking at it this way... Flora might just be the dead weight for the University of Maple Grove.”
