Flora’s Guide to a Second Chance at Love and Life novel Chapter 1697

Before heading out, she gave Jenny a quick look. "Keep an eye on Kimberly for me until I'm back."

"Sure thing," Jenny replied, nodding as she nudged Chris towards the door. "You'd better stick with Fiona. Things have been messy in the Southeast lately, with all sorts of power struggles. Having you around might just make a difference."

As they made their way to District F, the traffic was way worse than when they were heading to Jenny's place.

"Something's off," Fiona mumbled under her breath.

Seemed like someone had tipped them off.

Fiona quickly gathered her hair into a messy bun. Her usual warm tone was replaced with a cold edge as she spoke to the driver, right when the car came to a halt.

"You head back. Chris, get in the front seat."

The second the driver opened the door, Fiona pushed Chris's head down just in time to dodge a bullet that zipped through the air where their heads had just been.

With a swift move, Fiona pulled a gun from her waist and took out the driver with a shot to the head. In a blink, she slid into the driver’s seat. Chris, no stranger to danger, quickly jumped into the passenger seat and buckled up. Fiona floored the gas pedal, and they sped off.

Her right hand gripped the steering wheel while her left held the gun, resting on the window ledge. Her aim was top-notch, only missing due to the bumpy road and the ambush from their pursuers.

"Buckle up," she warned.

With those words, Fiona sent the car barreling down a hill.

Chris was taken aback. Even after all these years, Fiona's driving was still as impressive—and terrifying—as ever.
