Such a remarkable person missing out on the opportunity to join the medical institute? That would be a real shame. Flora shook her head again. "Alright then," she said.
Kruiz didn''t push any further but spoke sincerely, "I really hope to see you at the medical institute."
They hade all this way to find out who had cracked those tough medical forms. Now that they''d seen Flora, they decided it was time to head out. With them gone, thepetition could carry on.
As they left, the host took the stage once more, and all eyes were glued to the giant electronic screen. The long-awaited results were finally rolling in. Nobody paid any mind to the other participants'' scores. All attention was on the name ''Flora'' at the top of the list. Team Austenberg, Flora, perfect score.
The bright red letters seemed to ze in everyone''s eyes.
"Are you telling me Kruiz personally invited Flora to be a tutor at the medical institute, and she turned him down?" Abbey asked in disbelief backstage, after hearing Elijah''s report.
She was stunned that Kruiz would extend the invitation to Flora, and even more shocked that Flora would refuse. If she wasn''t impressed by a tutor position at the medical institute, what could possibly catch her interest?
Abbey was also a tutor there, but just an assistant. Despite her talent, she had areas where she fell short. When she was on the verge of bing a full-time tutor, Kruiz was the first to oppose it.Content property of N?velDra/ma.Org.
The medical institute was jointly owned by the four prominent families of Lone Ind. The White family, known for their medical prowess, had a significant influence, but they couldn''t call all the shots. So, despite her frustration, Abbey had to settle for being an assistant tutor.
Now, Kruiz had just met Flora and immediately offered her a full-time tutor position, which made Abbey furious.
And to top it all off, Flora had the nerve to refuse.
Something Abbey had always coveted was dismissed by Flora as if it were nothing but trash.
After taking a quick phone call, Elijah rushed over and said, "Miss, the Reyes family just called! They said Mr. Reyes suddenly coughed up blood, and they''re asking for you toe over immediately." Abbey stood up, "Alright, let''s go have a look."
...
Back at thepetition venue.
As the final group of contestants
wrapped up, the eight-hour
marathon finally came to a close. Thanks to Flora''s perfect score, Team Austenberg made a stunningeback, clinching the

and outdistancing the second ce by almost twenty points
Team Austenberg had bagged first ce in two consecutivepetitions, and if nothing unexpected happened, they were set to be the champions this time.
"Flora, how about we grab a meal together?" Mr. Tanner asked, rubbing his hands together in excitement.
Team Austenberg hadpeted in numerous medical tournaments but had never snagged a championship before, so he was understandably thrilled.
"No, thanks," Flora replied casually, lifting her hand. "My fiancé is waiting for me outside. I''ll be dining with him."
Mr. Tanner: "..."
What was with this unexpected sprinkle of romance?
Flora grabbed her backpack, slinging
it over one shoulder, and made her way toward the exit of the venue. Just as she stepped out of the inner area, someone approached her.
Kruz ran up to her, shouting excitedly, "Flora, you finally came out!"
Seeing his urgency, Flora frowned, "What''s going on?"
"Please,e with me to the Reyes
family! Adrian''s dad is in bad
shape he coughed up blood and fainted, and he still hasn''te to.
Flora, you''re the best doctor e
know; we need your help!"
As soon as Kruz heard about Karter Reyes copsing, Flora was the first person who came to mind. His Flora was the best doctor around!
Before she could say anything else, Kruz had already hustled her into the car, hit the gas, and they sped off into the distance.
