Chapter 281
At the University of Maple Grove’s social media feed, a startling post cought Mr. Garcia’s eye, leaving him in shock.
Like many others, he had expected Flors to join a prestigious medical program. Now, it seemed she’d somehow ruffled some feathers Instead.
Though Mr. Garcia only met Flora just once, he knew better. Flora wasn’t at all like the medical board described. She was polite, though a bit reserved, which was understandable for someone meeting new people.
Convinced that Flora belonged at the University of Maple Grove, Mr. Garcia decided it was their duty to stand by her. He quickly responded to the medical board’s post using the University’s official account.
University of Maple Grove Official, You, sit, are an antiquated fool, devoid of any real understanding! If you were gone, the grass over your grave would grow tall!
His response quickly shot to the top of the trending comments.
One user laughed. Haha, I’m dying! This is how cultured folks throw shade–no swearing needed.]
Another admitted. I’m lost. I’ve read too little to get this burn. Can someone explain?]
A helpful translator chimed in. (Mr. Garcia basically said: ‘Old man, you know nothing. If you were dead, weeds would be overgrowing your grave by now!]
This comment went viral. The admissions officer was furious enough to nearly break his phone. But deleting it would only make him
look worse.
Meanwhile, Flora’s name was displayed prominently in Cedarvale Square.
It had been a decade since Cedarvale had seen a national top scorer, and Flora had certainly made her hometown proud.
With media and reporters flocking to her Flora felt overwhelmed and longed for a break.
Inside the executive office of Stonnell International, Connor watched Flora slumped on a small sofa and offered. “How about we visit my base for a change of scenery?”
Moss, entering to deliver some documents, overheard and paused, thinking of the old saying, “Beauty blinds the wise.”
if those people knew Connor was casually inviting a girl to his base with such an invitation, they would be outraged.
Flora readily agreed and informed her family, that she would be joining Connor for an outing.
Raul and Hennik trusted Connar implicitly, with him around, they were confident Flora would be safe. Besides, Flora deserved some relaxation after her exams.
With their blessing, Flora began packing.
The next day, they set off for Ruby Path, with Moss and Beck tagging along.
The staff had already been informed of Connor’s return and eagerly awaited their arrival.
As the helicopter touched down at 10 AM, the executives stood in line, their respect bordering on reverence as they watched a figure with a sunhat emerge.
Behind her, Connor appeared, casually carrying the lady’s chain bag over one shoulder, draping a lilac sun–shielding jacket over his arm, and holding a bottle of sunscreen spray in his hand,
The executives were left puzzled and speechless.
