Flora’s Guide to a Second Chance at Love and Life novel Chapter 1627

The eyes beneath that mask looked eerily similar to Fiona's just now!

Fiona had vanished without a trace, and even he couldn't pin down where she'd gone. It was as if she had simply evaporated into thin air. Though she'd disappeared in the past, she could always be reached somehow. But now, not only was she unreachable, even her IP was a ghost.

"Dig into her background," Jackson murmured.

His assistant sprang into action, leaving to handle his request, while Zoe tagged along, taking the elevator up to the third floor.

"Miss H, take a breather. The boss is downstairs and will be up shortly."

Fiona nodded, settling down cross-legged by the large window. Before long, the door swung open, and a barefoot teenager hurried in, carrying two steaming cups of hot cocoa.

"Fiona, you were a tough one to track down," the girl said, plopping down and placing one of the cocoa cups in front of Fiona. "Here you go—extra marshmallows for double the happiness."

"Thanks." Fiona took a hefty sip, feeling satisfied. "Jasmine, what's the scoop this time?"

"It's about the international film star showdown. Nine million a pop for makeup, but no one's wowed them yet."

Jasmine sighed, clutching her cocoa, her gaze drifting from Fiona to the window, a look of concern on her face. "Honestly, aside from you, I doubt anyone could catch their eye."

"Nine million's no small change," Fiona chuckled. If memory served, wasn't an international film star backed by the Larkin family?

"How's business with the Larkin family?" Fiona asked.

"Wow, that doesn't sound like you. Is it about Jackson being engaged to her? Feeling the heat?" Jasmine teased, sticking her tongue out cheekily. "Don't doubt my insight—I know you too well."

"You've got a big mouth. I'm thinking of asking your granddad to set you up with someone."

"No way! Fiona, that's low!" Jasmine's shriek filled the room.

...

Zoe stood outside the room, hesitant to knock. Frustrated, she dialed a number, and two minutes later, hung up with a contented sigh. Turning around, she froze upon seeing Jackson, and her face immediately brightened, all her worries evaporating.
