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

No one would have guessed that the young woman in front of them was actually the heir to the prestigious Stonnell family.

Having grown up in the States, everyone knew about the Stonnell family. Sure, they were aware that there was an heir, but since this person had been out of the picture for so long and kept such a low profile, details were scarce. The Stonnell family had kept things under wraps, and no one really knew where the heir had been all this time.

And now, seemingly out of the blue, this supposed heir made an entrance, naturally grabbing everyone's attention.

Jackson, on the other hand, looked at Fiona with a mixture of admiration and happiness. Fiona had never revealed her identity to anyone outside before, and this sudden reveal had him thrilled beyond belief.

"Fiona..." Jackson murmured softly, gazing at her tenderly as he pulled her into a warm embrace.

Before he could say more, someone from the Stonnell family stepped up to clear any doubts.

"Mr. Holbrook, why haven't we ever heard of this Ms. Fiona, who claims to be the sole heir of the Stonnell family?"

Young Holbrook was taken aback. He hadn't heard of anyone like her showing up from the Stonnell family. He recalled his parents mentioning Fiona before, but she was supposed to be in the Capital.

His parents had mentioned that Fiona was reluctant to come to the States. With narrowed eyes, he doubted the girl in front of him could be the real Fiona. Who knew what the real Fiona looked like after all this time? For all he knew, she might not be all that!

Sure, the girl was stunning, but his heart had always been set on the charming starlet beside him.

"Do you have any proof you're from the Stonnell family?" Young Holbrook asked cautiously, even as he quickly texted other members of the Stonnell family for confirmation.

The wait for a response felt excruciating.

Fiona looked at him like he was nothing, and finally, unable to hold back, shook her head. "How did the Stonnell family end up with someone as useless as you?"

"Say that again?" Young Holbrook snapped, glaring furiously, ready to confront her.

Just then, he got messages from other Stonnell family members, complete with a photo confirming the girl standing right there.

Talk about bad luck!noveldrama

He had run into quite the formidable figure.

As a member of the Stonnell family himself, he couldn't do anything to Fiona, nor could he afford to show any resentment.

Seeing Young Holbrook's silence, the crowd quickly understood that Fiona's identity was legit, and no one dared to speak up.

No one wanted to start trouble, especially when it could mess with their own interests.

Meanwhile, the starlet was quite

interested in Jackson. Meeting

someone from the influential Woods

family, another powerhouse in the States, was a big deal, and she intended to seize the opportunity. Although Young Holbrook had always liked her, he wasn't a direct heir to the Stonnell family, and his future inheritance would be limited. She wasn't about to waste her time on something that didn't promise much.

The starlet's expression shifted, showing vulnerability. Her pretty face was full of distress as she

spoke in a sweet, pleading voice net

"Ms. Fiona, please don't

vene

misunderstand. Mr. Woods and I have nothing going on. We just had a drink together, along with others here, all prominent figures in the States. Rest assured, we didn't do anything inappropriate."

Fiona didn't even bother to look at such obvious manipulation.
