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

Unable to curb her curiosity, she sneakily peeked at the name, but it was covered, revealing only the surname “Irving”

“Ha, it must be Carina from Class A’s paper, she guessed.

“That kid is bright and so well–behaved.”

The Class A homeroom teacher beamed with pride just as Carina came by to hand in her homework. She pulled her aside and subtly praised, “Carina, you did well this time.”

“Ha, more than just well you aced Spanish.”

There were only a few top–students. Among them, only one had the sumame Irving, so the teachers naturally thought it was her paper.

“Didn’t you score a 720 last time? Keep it up, and you’ll definitely get into Westbrook College”

Carina herself hadn’t expected to ace Spanish and was thrilled beyond words. This Spanish test had an unusually high number of new words and phrases, including a reading passage she hadn’t fully understood.

Blushing, she said, “Thank you. I’ll continue to work hard.”

“Isn’t Flora from Class 2 your cousin? I wonder how she did. I heard she even made a bet with Ms. Jade, right?” someone in the office mentioned, keen on stirring things up.

Jade’s face darkened. Original content from NôvelDrama.Org.

“I was proctoring Flora’s exam room, and that child slept through the entire thing. Both are from the Irving family, yet so different.”

The teachers shook their heads in disappointment.

Jade’s expression grew even grimmer. She was embarrassed by Class 2 each time during exams.

“Class Z is just a bunch of hopeless cases, and Flora is a disgrace to Westbrook High School

“Ms. Jade, that’s not right to say,” the Class 2 homeroom teacher, Keaton, interjected, displeased. “We’re teachers. No matter what, we shouldn’t speak of our students that way”

He knew about the dispute between Flora and Jade, including their bet. He did not like Flora himself, and thinking she was on the verge of expulsion, he hadn’t intervened.

Still, as the teacher of Class Z, he couldn’t allow such disrespect

Jade, face grim, said no more. Carina also wisely made her exit.

Just minutes after she left, a shout of astonishment came from the office. “Only one point off in Literature! My goodness!”

Hearing this, the teachers hurried over.

A student only had one point off on the reading section. And they had a perfect score on the composition!

A:

The composition was bold and proud, stirring excitement in the reader.

“This student has quite the flair for writing!”

“Wait, why does this handwriting look so familiar…” The first teacher quickly retrieved the Spanish paper and compared the handwriting to the Literature paper–it was identical.

This doesn’t seem to be Carinas… the Literature teacher remarked. He had graded Carina’s Literature work before, which was overly flowery and pedantic, nothing like this commanding and bold piece.

Driven by curiosity, they sneakily checked the name.

The entire office was struck as if by lightning!

“Flora?! How could it be her!”
