Flora’s Guide to a Second Chance at Love and Life
Chapter 1076

Bennett from Starlight Entertainment sat there, silent and defeated. Life was really throwing him some curveballs lately. First, he hired Lydia as a designer, only for her to be blacklisted from the design world in no time. Then, he brought on Aisha, a star who got tangled in a scandal just days ago. Now she was off the table too. He'd once laughed at Florik Entertainment, but now, he wasn't so sure he measured up. It was starting to look like Starlight Entertainment might be stuck in Florik's shadow forever.

After the fashion show, the judges were ready to score the models based on their outfits and stage presence. It wasn't just about the clothes looking great; the models had to bring them to life. Flora leaned against Connor, struggling to keep her eyes open, but perked up when Rafael and Cecelia hit the runway.

Cecelia was stunning in a flowing red gown that shimmered as she moved. The belt cinched her waist perfectly, highlighting her elegant figure. She walked with such confidence, one hand on her hip and her posture bold and radiant. Talk about making a statement! And then there was Rafael. He was supposed to have this gentle, aloof look, but that wasn't really his style. The earring in his left ear caught the light, and his lips curled into a smirk that screamed "bad boy." His eyes, though, hinted at something deeper, a touch of melancholy. It was an unexpected mix, but it worked. He was magnetic.

The live stream audience went wild:

[Haha, Rafael still loves to show off, but he looks amazing doing it!]

[Cecelia is such a powerhouse. Fly high, girl, your mom's rooting for you!]

[Rafael and Cecelia have serious couple vibes. I'm shipping it! Get them a wedding venue!]

In the crowd, Flora snapped a picture with her phone. Connor, noticing, asked, "What are you doing?" His voice was casual, but curious.

"I'm sending it to Kaylee," Flora

replied. The poor girl was stuck with finals and couldn't be there.

Meanwhile, Aisha watched Cecelia from the sidelines, her expression twisted with envy, eyes burning red. Backstage designer Taylor was having a moment. She had envisioned the looks as sophisticated and elegant, but

something completely different to

the table. And it was working!

The judges were momentarily stunned but quickly refocused on the clothes. They were amazed again by the quality and design, top-notch in every way.

"Who's the designer from Florik Entertainment?" one judge whispered, puzzled since Florik wasn't known for fashion.

"It's Taylor!" someone informed. "Recently, Taylor and some top designers joined Florik Entertainment. I couldn't figure out why."

Florik was a big name in film and TV, but not in fashion. What were Taylor and the others after?

"Mr. Howell, do you know?" they

asked, turning to Howell. It was rumored that Taylor had considered Rose's Studio before joining Florik Maybe Howell had some insight. His gaze briefly flickered toward Flora in the audience before he began to speak.
