Flora’s Guide to a Second Chance at Love and Life novel Chapter 842

Mr. Tanner and Felene were both floored by Flora's declaration.

One hand?

She said she’d compete using just one hand! It was downright outrageous! Had anyone else uttered those words, Mr. Tanner might've launched into a rant about their sheer audacity. In the fast-paced chaos of an operating room, where even the most seasoned surgeons struggled with both hands, how could she possibly pull it off with just one?

It seemed absurd. Yet with Flora, it might just be possible. The very thought sent a shiver down Mr. Tanner's spine.

Felene was just as taken aback. Had Flora really become so adept? Could she actually perform surgery with a single hand? It was wild to think about, but Felene knew if Flora said it, she could back it up. Felene realized she might never catch up to Flora, no matter what.

Mr. Tanner didn’t quite know what came over him, but somehow, he found himself agreeing to Flora's bold challenge. Once back, he called a meeting with the Austenberg team to break the news about Flora’s plan to compete in the final round.

The whole crew was in shock; none of them thought Flora would make it to the finals. And with one hand, no less.

“Seriously? One hand? She’s got some nerve. Isn’t she worried she’ll end up the laughingstock of the whole event?” Debra scoffed, feeling daring enough to mock Flora in her absence, though she kept her voice low.

Joy, usually the first to jump on the Flora-bashing bandwagon, stayed unusually quiet. Debra, picking up on this, turned to her with a puzzled look.

Thinking about the two hundred billion price tag, Tommy felt a pang in his chest but still approached with courtesy. “Féraphine,” he greeted.

“Save the pleasantries, just take me to the patient,” Crimson snapped, lifting her sunglasses with a flick of her hand. She was still fuming and knew any more small talk with Tommy would push her over the edge.

Tommy was taken aback by ‘Féraphine’s’ bluntness. He was older than her by several years; how could she talk to him like that? Such disrespect. Still, he remembered Abbey and swallowed his pride, leading Crimson and Jules to the hospital room.

Inside, upon seeing Abbey battered and bruised on the hospital bed, Crimson couldn’t help but sneer, “Wow, those are some serious injuries. What did you get yourself into to end up like this?”
