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

Chapter 1471

Jackson sat there, a quiet observer, eyes slightly narrowed as he took in the scene. The dishes arrived promptly, most of them tailored to Fiona's tastes. Among them was butter-garlic shrimp-a dish she particularly loved. Jackson was about to help Fiona peel the shrimp, slipping on a pair of gloves, but Tyler beat him to it.

Tyler deftly peeled a shrimp and placed it in Fiona's bowl. She flashed him a warm smile before savoring it. Tyler continued peeling, and Fiona continued eating, creating a seamless, synchronized rhythm. Meanwhile, Jackson and Nash faded into the background.

Nash acted on impulse and realized too late what he'd done. His face froze. He was allergic to seafood and never touched shrimp. What was he thinking? Just to get under Fiona's skin, he had piled his plate high. But he couldn't admit his allergy-Fiona would never let him live it down. So he retorted with a smirk, "Yeah, I love butter-garlic shrimp. Got a problem with that?"
