Flora’s Guide to a Second Chance at Love and Life novel Chapter 718

It wasn't impossible for her to score perfectly. But why Flora? Why should *she* get a perfect score!

What really floored her was Flora's problem-solving approach—it was even more concise and clearer than hers, using a broader range of knowledge! There were parts she had to stare at for ages before she could make sense of them.

"Ms. Abbey, it's already five past two. We really need to release the scores now," Joy said, looking a bit worried.

As soon as the scores came in, Abbey had snatched Flora's paper and had been poring over it ever since. She was responsible for tallying and releasing the scores, and they were already overdue.

Honestly, she was both stunned and envious. She hadn't expected Flora to do so well. Abbey had scored 96 back in the day, which was enough for Mr. Tanner to take her on as his protégé.

But now, Flora had nailed a perfect score, and even Mr. Tanner had personally called to ask about Flora's results. His tone was so urgent and hopeful. Flora hadn't even joined the National Medical Department yet, and Mr. Tanner was already so keen on her. If Flora did join, wouldn't she steal all the spotlight meant for Abbey!

At that thought, she wished Flora would just vanish!

But the scores had to be released, no matter what.

"Let's announce it, let her feel what it's like to fall from grace," Abbey said, regaining her usual haughty demeanor. Flora might be more capable than she had imagined, but so what? Abbey was the medical prodigy Lone Island had invested decades of effort and resources in; Flora couldn't even compare to a single strand of her hair. And… she had a big surprise waiting for her.

...

Outside, everyone was getting anxious. It was already ten past two, why hadn't the scores been released yet? Was there some kind of problem?

"Oh my God, why aren't they out yet? I've almost finished my box of emergency heart pills!"

"They should be out any minute now…”

"The scores are out! They’re out!"

His cousin teased loudly, enjoying the man's face turning as dark as a storm cloud, laughing inside.

Shawn, not as lively as his cousin and not one to mince words, still shot the man a look of disdain and provocation. Comparing scores with Flora? He must be out of his mind.

"Flora, I think you’ve got this. Maybe you could even hit 70!"

Since Flora had mentioned 70 points would be challenging, they guessed she would score around sixty to seventy, so they watched the screen even more intently, afraid of missing it.

But…

Among them, some had seen their own names, but not Flora's! And then, moving up, they were nearing eighty points…
