Flora’s Guide to a Second Chance at Love and Life novel Chapter 816

Hehehe...

Amanda thought to herself, "I've gotta spoil Flora from now on, like, big time!"

Kruz watched Amanda's goofy grin and couldn't help but roll his eyes. Seriously, his mom was going overboard!

Just then, his phone buzzed on the table. It was Adrian calling.

"Adrian, what's up? Flora? Yeah, she's here with me. What's going on... Hello?!"

The call ended suddenly, leaving Kruz scratching his head in confusion.

"What was that about?" Amanda asked.

"No clue," Kruz said, still puzzled. "Adrian just called, asked where Flora was like it was urgent, and then hung up."

Flora raised an eyebrow slightly. She had a pretty good idea of what was happening. But she didn't expect Karter to get into trouble so soon. It was supposed to be later tonight.

...

Fifteen minutes later, Adrian came bursting into the Falcone house, first words out of his mouth were a plea.

"Flora, please, you gotta help my dad!"

Just half an hour earlier, Karter had suddenly fallen into a coma, and even Abbey was at a loss.

Adrian immediately recalled Flora's warning before she left, saying his dad would be in for it tonight. It clicked.

Flora must have known his dad was going to have more issues. His gut told him that if anyone could save his dad now, it was Flora.

He even suspected that his dad's earlier recovery was all thanks to Flora. Abbey had been taking credit unfairly!

"Karter's in trouble again?" Kruz was utterly confused. Was Flora really that amazing? She called it—said Karter would have trouble tonight, and here it was, not even night yet.

"Flora, please, help my dad..." Adrian begged, his eyes shimmering with tears, a grown man on the verge of breaking down.

"Let me finish my dinner first," Flora said coolly, taking another bite of her food. She knew Karter's condition wasn't life-threatening—he just needed to endure some hardship.

"Flora!" Adrian was on edge. At a time like this, she was still eating. Guess he really did tick her off earlier.

Flora stayed unfazed, and Connor even handed her a glass of water, "Take your time, don't choke."

Karter lay on the bed, coughing up blood without pause. His face was swollen and purple, his breaths shallow...

Breathing in less than he was breathing out.

It seemed like he could stop breathing at any moment.

"Ms. Abbey, what's happening with our brother?" a group of anxious relatives asked.

"I..." Abbey was at a loss too. She couldn't figure out what went wrong. Everything had been fine, and then...

"Karter might not pull through, you should... brace yourselves," she finally said, struggling to get the words out. She had done everything she could, but it wasn't enough.

"Ms. Abbey, didn't you say he was out of danger? How could..." Ryan's face went pale.

Abbey decided to shift the blame onto Flora: "It's all Flora's fault. She did too much damage to Mr. Jiang, so..."

"Oh."

Before she could finish, a laid-back yet cool voice came from behind.
