“Wwwake?”
“Mmm, I only had a ss of milk this moming, and now I’m really hungry Flora’s voice carried a hint
of coquetry, “I finished the puff pastries you bought
Connor frowned, “Have the housekeeper prepare something for you to eat. You have a stomach
condition. Going hungry will only make it worse.”
“Get L Flora replied with augh, Tve got something else on. Talkter”
Flora ended the call happily, paid the driver and entered the restaurant.
On the other end, after hanging up. Connor changed his clothes and went out to Thompson’s
Bakery to buy puff pastries.
Flora was picky with food, but she really liked the puff pastries, especially since they were
individually packed and couldst a long time. He always bought extra so she could carry them
around as snacks.
In the private room.
e saw her entering.
Rafael was already waiting and almost rushed up to give Flora a bear hug when he
Flora dodged to the side gracefully and sat down on a chair with a cool demeanor
Rafael nearly hit the wall and red at her imitably, “Ice–cold. I miss you so much, and you don’t
even care.”
“Stop that” Flora said, resting her chin in her hand with a look of disdain, but her eyes were soft.
Rafael was a public figure and wore a mask and sunsses to cover himselfpletely, afraid of
being recognized. “Here, your tickets, all in the best spots.”
Flora took them and put them in her bag, “You could’ve just had your assistant give them to me.
Aren’t you afraid of being snapped by paparazzi?”
“Don’t you know why I came in person?” Rafael replied imitably, “It’s because you had been blinded
by love recently.”
Flora fell silent. She and Rafael had known each other since childhood, introduced by her family
during a trip to their ancestral home.
They spent a few months in the countryside. Back then, Rafael disliked her, thinking she was too
pretentious as a city girl, even throwing her into a dog kennel once.
However, over time, their bickering turned into friendship.
She had a crush on Aaron, and when Rafael found out, he berated her for her poor judgment and
warned that Aaron was no good.
Back then, she was indeed blinded by love, refusing to hear anything bad about Aaron, leading to a
fallout with Rafael.
In her previous life, before she died, Rafael dropped everything toe to Cedarvale for her, only
to be a step toote,
She wondered what his expression would be like if he knew she ended up in a tragic fire.
Flora slowly smiled, somewhat self mockingly, “Yeah, blinded by love.”
“Alright, alright, my bad for bringing it up” Rafael felt ufortable and quickly changed the
subject.
“Tve practiced the dance moves you revised a few times and sent the video to your email. Check it
out when you have time,”
“Sure”
Outside.
On the street.
A ck Maybach was parked in the middle of the road. The window was slightly rolled down, and
the person inside, with dark.
10:30
brooding eyes, watched Flomughing and talking with Rafael
A cold, almost insane atmosphere spread in the confined space of the car.
Beck and Moss were too scared to even breathe too loudly. Who would have thought they’d run
into Flora with another man?
“Bring her over.”
Connor’s expression was témifying, his voice hoarse. His eyes were bloodshot.
“Yes.”
Beck got out of the car, but then Connor’s voice came again. “Forget it…”
His voice sounded weak, even a bit aggrieved, “Let’s go home.”
Flora had been so different these days, as if she were someone else. He didn’t want to break this
fragile understanding between them.
Moreover, he wanted to trust her.
