Flora’s Guide to a Second Chance at Love and Life novel Chapter 486

Everyone's eyes were glued to the girl lounging on stage, their hearts pounding with amazement.

Brianna tilted her head slightly, her gaze fixed on Flora, a whirlwind of emotions swirling inside her.

In this competition, the University of Maple Grove clinched the championship effortlessly.

The Imperial College of Technology, however, only landed third place after Flora's stunning performance in the third round.

Not even second.

During the award ceremony, the faces from Imperial College were a gloomy sight. After collecting their awards, they slinked off the stage, clearly downcast.

And with that, the intercollegiate championship drew to a close, and the colleges dispersed in an orderly fashion.

Raul, Henrik, and Cecelia made their way down from the stands.

"Ms. Flora! You were incredible!" Cecelia was practically ready to kneel in admiration after witnessing Flora's triumph.

"Our Flora is always the greatest," Henrik beamed, handing Flora a bouquet of flowers.

"Thanks, big bro!"

Flora's face softened, her tough exterior melting away into a tender, sweet smile among her loved ones.

"Flora!"

Kaylee and Louie rushed over, having just wrapped up their fashion design competition on the third floor. They couldn't wait to congratulate Flora.

"Champion?" Flora's eyes landed on Kaylee, her tone questioning yet certain.

Kaylee nodded excitedly, "Yes! Champion!"

Everyone gathered around Flora, showering her with congratulations. A pang of envy hit Brianna. No one was there to celebrate her...

As she wallowed in her thoughts, she caught sight of Ray entering the venue out of the corner of her eye.

Excitement sparkled in her eyes as she hurried over, thinking, "My brother still cares! He's here to celebrate with me!"

The words "my dearest princess" were laden with affection, sending tingles through Flora's ears. It was the first time Connor had called her that, and her cheeks turned a rosy hue.

*Cough*

Henrik cleared his throat awkwardly, while Raul looked away, silently lamenting, "The little cabbage has been nibbled by the pig."

Watching the couple's playful banter, Brianna felt dizzy. She took a few steps forward, leaning on Ray for support. "Bro, hold me up a bit," she mumbled. She felt like she was dreaming...

"Hi, I'm Jules, Flora's friend."

Jules approached, extending a hand towards Connor. Only after hearing "Flora's friend" did Connor shake his hand politely.

Jules put on his glasses, giving Connor a thorough once-over.

"So, Flora's fiancé, huh?" He removed his glasses and tucked them back into his pocket. "How about we grab a drink?"

"Count me in," Louie chimed in.
