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

Fiona glanced over at Tyler, words hovering on her lips, but she decided to keep them to herself. Maybe Tyler really needed to dig into what made International Glam stand out among top-tier brands and beloved classics. Was it really just about innovation and technology? Seriously?

In today's world, innovation and technology are everywhere. Those are just gimmicks. How could someone as sharp as Tyler be so off track?

After dealing with the Reynolds family, Jane walked in and sat next to Fiona. Her eyes were red with emotion as she whispered, “I'm sorry, I couldn't stop my dad."

Jane had absolute faith in Fiona. Even though she was young and not directly involved in the Kidd family business, she was clued into the dynamics. The Kidd and Bryant families had always been in a close race. Recently, the Bryants had announced their collaboration with International Glam and had their designs all set. But then, the Kidd family pulled this move on the launch day. Jane knew her family wasn't capable of producing such cutting-edge designs.

Even if all the designers at Kidd Corporation pooled their talents, they couldn't have created such outstanding pieces, let alone outpace the Bryants.

So, this time, the Kidd family messed up, and as their daughter, Jane felt a heavy responsibility.

"It's alright,” Fiona said with a light, dismissive smile, as if it truly didn't faze her. "Go take your seat, class is about to start."

Jane pressed her lips together, choosing not to say more, and quietly returned to her seat, sneaking a few glances back.

With the Kidd family dropping their designs first, and considering the Bryant family's past plagiarism issues, even though the Bryant Group had already announced their partnership with International Glam and received an official response, plagiarism was still on everyone's mind. The public wasn't buying it!

The situation blew up, with criticisms raining down on the Bryant family while International Glam's official channels were flooded with questions about the origins of the designs.

If International Glam admitted to creating them, it would clear the Bryant family's name and shift the blame onto International Glam for copying Kidd Corporation.noveldrama

This was exactly what the Bryant family wanted!

They didn't want any blemishes on their record and couldn't afford the suspicion. Since the plagiarism scandal erupted, their stock took a hit, unsettling shareholders. The Bryant family was in a bind.

Meanwhile, Jane wasn't having an easy time at school. She could handle the whispers and stares from classmates, but the reporters waiting outside Center College were relentless.

“Jane, maybe you should go explain things. Seeing those reporters every time we leave is driving us nuts."

“Yeah, it's obviously the Kidd family's fault. Why don't you clear things up so we can catch a break?”

“Jane, I trust you. You should use legal action to protect yourself!"

Each comment felt like a stab to Jane's heart. She could hardly look Fiona in the eye. Her family's blunder had dragged so many into this mess, and she dreaded how Fiona might view her now.

Jane was going out of her mind, but her classmates thought she was just frustrated by the gossip. They rallied around her, cheering her on and even suggesting that the Kidd family should sue the Bryant family and International Glam.
