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

Kruz hung up the phone and, with a cautious tone, asked Connor and Flora, "Hey, bro, Flora, mom's wondering if you guys want to head back to the Falcone family."

Connor didn't answer right away. Instead, he glanced at Flora, seeking her input with just a look.

Flora gave a slight nod, and only then did Connor respond with a soft, "Yeah."

Kruz relayed Connor's decision, then hung up and sat up excitedly, grinning at Connor. "Looks like we're heading in the same direction now, bro!"

Over at the Reyes household, just after Flora and Kruz left, Karter had stopped coughing up blood, and his color was looking a whole lot better.

Abbey tidied up her medical gear and casually announced, "Karter's good now. He'll be waking up soon."

"Ms. Abbey, you're the best doctor on Lone Island, no doubt about it!" Everyone chimed in, having seen the whole thing unfold. Abbey seemed to have done almost nothing, yet Karter was on the mend. Her skills were way beyond Flora's!

Flora was just a wannabe doctor, almost costing Karter his life!
