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

The young man was completely thrown off. Normally, even if he had a hundred lifetimes' worth of courage, he wouldn't dare say something like that.

Getting a perfect score at the University of Maple Grove? That was just ridiculous.

He couldn't keep his cool after watching the video Aisha had shown him. He was convinced that President Grant was playing favorites.

Everyone around exchanged confused glances, trying to make sense of what the young man had said.

Jules's eyes showed a brief flicker of surprise, but then he smiled and admitted straightforwardly, "Yes, I've known Flora for a long time. She is, indeed... the person I admire most." The room went silent for a beat, then erupted like a kettle on the boil.

Mr. Jurado chuckled, "No wonder President Grant made that unexpected trip to the lounge earlier."
