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

Henrik and Flora were deep in conversation, chatting about the booming success of their live-streaming sales. The results were phenomenal; now, big-name brands were lining up to partner with Florik Entertainment, offering six-figure sums just to get a spot in their streams.

Florik Entertainment had suddenly become the talk of the industry, and those who once turned up their noses were now scrambling to adopt their live-streaming sales model.

As usual, Flora listened quietly, knowing Henrik had a knack for business deals. The siblings shared an easy rapport, while Connor, wearing gloves, peeled shrimp for Flora without saying a word. Cecelia occasionally snuck a piece of steak when Henrik wasn't looking, but she limited herself to three pieces, mindful of her figure if she wanted to pursue a career in entertainment.

After the meal, Henrik headed to pay the bill, only for the waiter to inform him with a smile that it had already been taken care of. Connor chuckled, "Big brother doesn't pay when we're dining together." His frequent and affectionate use of "big brother" was a bit too much for Henrik, who wasn't quite used to it.

Once dinner was over, Henrik and Cecelia went back to the office, and Flora returned to her lab. Connor also drove back to Shallow Bay to deal with urgent matters.

Connor dropped Flora off at her lab and was about to leave when a black sedan scraped by his car. He caught a glimpse of the passenger, and his usually relaxed eyes narrowed slightly. What was he doing at the lab?

"Everyone, can I have your attention for a moment?" Dr. Ray announced, his excitement palpable. "Our investor is visiting today. Let's be on our best behavior and give them a warm welcome!"

The lab was on the cusp of a major breakthrough but needed a substantial amount of funding. Just a few days ago, someone had stepped up with a whopping fifty-million-dollar investment! Fifty million!
