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

Fiona!

What on earth was going through Tyler's mind about Fiona?

Nash snagged an eraser from his desk and flung it across the room, yelling, "Tyler, where do you think you're looking? Fiona's not someone you can just eye like that!"

His desk mate was bewildered: ???

"You're always so self-righteous, using my eraser to hit people, and it's always the same target."

Tyler shot a glance at Nash, completely unfazed, and then went back to his book.

Seeing Tyler brush him off, Nash was about to blow a gasket. How dare he just ignore him!

"If you give Fiona that look again, you'll have to deal with me!"

At that, Tyler suddenly looked up. "Is there a problem?"

That fiery temper of his!

Nash almost couldn't restrain himself.

Just then, Fiona strolled in, glanced over at Keaton, and then made her way to her seat.

She turned back to Tyler and flashed a light smile. "Congrats."

"Thanks." Tyler returned the smile, looking like a completely different person. Nash nearly lost it.

...

That afternoon, word got around that Tyler's test results were in, but they hadn't been announced.

Everyone assumed that Tyler's top score was a stroke of luck.

In the hallway of Class 19, they were talking loudly.

"Wow, who does he think he is, swaggering around after a retake, and now the results aren't even up. Must've bombed it."

"Hahaha, maybe the school's sparing him the shame. You're being a bit harsh, aren't you? Maybe he just wanted to give it another go."

"Why all the fuss? Doesn't Class 19 know their own standing? Or are they just scared people won't realize they're a bunch of slackers?"

Laughter echoed down the corridors.

The Class

already vouched for

he rightfully

first

The reason it wasn't public yet was that Mr. Garcia hadn't returned.

Plus, Keaton thought Tyler might be the next top student.

Given the significance, Keaton held off on making it official.

"What nonsense are you spewing! Can't Class 19 have someone with good grades?"

Just as the Class 19 students were about to clash with the others, a girl suddenly shouted to them.

"Tyler, the teacher wants to see you in the office."

The Class 19 students were puzzled, and the other classes just amped up their mocking.

"See, must be cheating; why else would they call him in?"

Laughter burst out immediately.

Tyler headed to the office in a hurry Not long after he left, Fiona gripped her phone tightly and followed, with Nash right behind her.

...

In the office, Tyler stood before a few teachers, maintaining a sincere demeanor.

"Tyler, did you take the test papers without permission?" Keaton asked.

Tyler shook his head. What would he need the test papers for?

Megan sneered, "Maybe he thought he bombed and swiped the papers."

"Ms. Megan, I reviewed Tyler's test papers. His scores are legit, so no need for your input."

Megan was fuming at those words, like a cat with its tail stepped on.

"Keaton, Tyler was the only one who came by this morning. The cash in my drawer vanished. When I put it there this morning, other teachers saw it too. They even mentioned the office lock was busted and hadn't been fixed yet. This calls for expulsion."

Who would've thought the money would disappear so quickly?

Who else could it be but Tyler?

"I didn't steal the test papers, nor did I take any money," Tyler insisted.

Just then, Fiona walked in, hands in her pockets. "There's a security camera here."

Hearing this, a flicker of guilt flashed across Megan's face.noveldrama
