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

The staff led Connor and his crew to the suite on the ninth floor with a respectful nod. "This is your room. Feel free to relax. There's a dance and cocktail party downstairs this evening. If you need anything, just press the red button on the table, and someone will come right away."

With that, the staff exited the room.

Flora's phone buzzed. She glanced at it and saw a message from Miss Crimson.

"Connor, I need to step out for a bit. Miss Crimson wants to see me," she said, handing him her phone.

"Hold on a sec, I'll get ready and come with you."

"No need, I can handle it. I know my way around here." Flora shook her head. She didn't want those old-timers checking out Connor.

"Then let Lance and Colton go with you. Call me if you need anything."

Connor knew Flora had ties with Club 257 and a special bond with the vice-president, Miss Crimson. Given her skills, he wasn't worried she'd get bullied.

Still, he worried she might run into more guys like the ones they met earlier.

"Don't worry, I can take care of myself. Hardly anyone here can take me down."

The Intelligence and Enforcement Division leaders silently agreed. Indeed, few could outmatch Ms. Flora.
