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

"Got it. Send me the license plate number of the car they got into."

"Alright." With those words, Fiona left the hospital.

Erica wasn't waking up anytime soon, but Fiona had something more urgent to dig into. The license plate number the director shared was distinctly a Bryant family one. She found it hard to wrap her head around Jasmine being tangled up in all this.

Fiona had always thought it odd that Jasmine knew so much about what happened to Jackson's parents back then. Even with the Bryant family's major clout in the States, it seemed far-fetched they'd spill such secrets to Jasmine unless they were trying to throw people off the scent.

With mystery after mystery piling up, Fiona felt worn out. She couldn't help but think about the trials Jackson and Kimberly must have faced over the years.

She made her way swiftly to the Woods family estate. Her contacts back in the States had tipped her off that the Bryant family matriarch was seriously ill and might not last the year. Even Jasmine had been called back, hinting at a possible shake-up in the Bryant family.

When Fiona reached the Woods family estate, she found a body laid out in the family chapel-it was the fourth brother of the Woods family.

Fiona paused at the doorway, her brow furrowed. Not being a member of the Woods family, she knew she couldn't step inside.

Outside the chapel, the fourth brother's wife was crying her heart out, her lament echoing through the air.

"Our fourth brother passed away under strange circumstances, and yet you question his loyalty? He was devoted to the Woods family all these years. Can't you see that? How could he have plotted against us with outsiders? Now that he's gone, you tarnish his name. As long as I'm alive, I won't let that happen."

"Fourth sister-in-law, please, let's not say more," the fifth brother sighed deeply.noveldrama

With his own financial issues still unresolved, he kept his thoughts to himself.

"Sister-in-law, it's out of line to talk like this. Jackson and Junru have proof against the fourth brother, and your reckless words make it seem like you've lost your senses, Holden immediately frowned.

Now that the fourth brother was dead, it wouldn't help for his widow to fall into trouble too. Everyone in the Woods family knew Jackson's fiery nature. If this blew up, it could end badly for everyone. With the fourth brother gone, it was like settling a score.

"Death won't wipe away his wrongs."

For the first time, the second brother, who had stayed in the shadows, stepped into the chapel, his face full of disdain, showing no sorrow for the dead.

"Thinking death will clear him of his actions against the Woods family won't work." "What are you implying, second brother?" Vincent shot back instantly.

Through all this, Fiona kept quiet, her eyes on Kimberly. Kimberly was calm and composed, sitting at the top spot, not saying a word. Oddly, Jackson was nowhere to be seen in the chapel.

That was unusual.

Kimberly glanced up, noticed Fiona at the door, and walked over to her.

"What brings you here, Fiona?"

Fiona handed her the documents she had, detailing how Erica's

parents were last seen leaving in a

Bryant family car. Kimberly and

Jackson deserved to know

Even if

Fiona didn't tell them now, they'd find out sooner or later. Better to hand over the evidence herself.
