Flora’s Guide to a Second Chance at Love and Life novel Chapter 96

Chapter 96 

In the rest area, Ray leaned against a column, watching the girl sitting in the gazebo with an emotionless expression. His charming. mesmerizing eyes squinted, adding a touch of irritability to his handsome features. 

The girl didn’t speak, and neither did he. The standoff between them persisted. 

He was frustrated. He had humbled himself, pleading with her to join him at the horse racing event, yet she still seemed unsatisfied 

Ray was already in a foul mood, and his imitation only grew when he saw Connor arriving with Flora. “Why did you bring her here?” he asked, barely containing his annoyance. 

“If it weren’t for Connor, I wouldn’t have bothered coming at all Flore retorted not one to back down. 

Ray scoffed. “Do you even know how to ride? I’d hate to see you end up looking like a mess after a fall 

Flora lifted her chin defiantly. “I might not be sure about other things, but when it comes to riding, I’m a pro 

The girl sitting in the gazebo couldn’t help but glance over at Flor. It was the first time she had seen someone talk back to Ray like 

that. 

Flora, noticing her gaze, looked back. 

It was Aisha, the girl who had come to her for treatment. 

Her condition had improved significantly. Although her complexion was still pale, at least it looked normal now. 

“What an arrogant claim! To think you could tell Ray that riding is your fortel Yvonne approached with a sharp voice, looking disdainfully at Flora 

Despite her dislike for Ray, she knew his equestrian skills were top–notch, unmatched except by Connor, Yvonne’s disdain for Flora, initially due to her engagement to Connor deepened upon hearing her boast. “Look at you boasting so boldly. Aren’t you afraid of biting your tongue?” 

The rivalry was evident. Even when Flora was disguised as Séraphine, Yvonne had shown deep hostility towards her. Even now, as Flora, the hostility remained. 

Flora couldn’t help but laugh. “What are you, a fighting cock?” 

Yvonne was momentarily confused by the remark. 

“I think your red riding outfit matches your style perfectly, Flora said sincerely. 

It dawned on Yvonne then, fueling her mage. Flora was insinuating she was a brash fighting cock, arogant and aggressive! 

“Words are cheap. Why not prove yourself with a challenge? Yvonne sneered. 

“Im not interested.” 

Flora saw no challenge in competing. Her opponents wem too weak to spark her interest 

“s it a lack of interest, or are you 

scared?” 

r you used to be scared just at the sight of horses… 

Carina chimed in, “Since when did you learn to ride, Flora? I remember 

This only confirmed Yvonne’s suspicion that Flora was all talk, likely incapable of riding at all. 

Flora ignored them. “Connor, it’s too noisy here. Let’s go over there.” 

“Sure.” 

Connor took her hand and led her to a quieter part of the racetrack. He whistled, and a horse charged towards him. Thunderbolt was Connor’s prized horse, reportedly purchased for a seven–figure sum. He was cherished beyond measure. 

Flora rubbed her hands in anticipation. “May take him for a ride?” 

“Of course. 

Flora eagerly reached out to pet Thunderbolt, but the horse, clearly displeased, shook its head and snorted aggressively. 

Taking a step back, Flora avoided any harm. 

“Thunderbolt” Connor’s voice was sterp, his expression chilling. 

Sensing his master’s displeasure, the horse calmed down, allowing Flora to touch it. 

However, as Flora attempted to mount, Thunderbolt reared up. Thankfully, Connor was quick to steady her, preventing a fall. 

Flora, shaken, reflected on the true nature of such a spirited horse. “Let’s not A spirited horse like this doesn’t take kindly to strangers. Il switch to a different one.”

Connor, angered and concerned for Flora’s safety, declared, “No matter how spirited, it’s just a horse. If it doesn’t behave, it’s gone 

Thunderbolt shivered, whining softly, and knelt down, allowing Flora to mount 

Connor climbed onto it, securing the reins and holding her close. He feared the horse might hurt her. 

The couple leisurely rode around the racetrack, their affectionate display making Ray avert his gaze. 

He had invited them to help console Aisha, not to flaunt their romance!
