Flora’s Guide to a Second Chance at Love and Life
Chapter 1083

Cecelia felt the warmth in her palm and instinctively glanced at Henrik. His gentle features seemed to soothe every bit of her anxiety. Henrik looked back at her, and in that moment, their eyes met, creating a spark between them. Several cameras were zeroed in on them, capturing every little gesture in crystal-clear detail. The live chat was buzzing:

"OMG!!!"

"I'm shipping them so hard!"

"Forget the Night Banquet couple, I'm all about the White Smoke couple now! Taking this ship and running! ["

"Their eye contact is everything! I can totally see Cecelia becoming the queen of Florik Entertainment!"

"Come on, think about it: Henrik's status and Cecelia's? She's just an actress dreaming of becoming the lady of Florik Entertainment. Henrik's probably just having a fling."

Henrik noticed that Cecelia hadn't let go of his hand and sighed in relief. He had been worried she might not welcome his closeness. Normally, he wasn't this insecure. He used to think Cecelia felt the same way about him, but the more he approached, the more she seemed to retreat. Gradually, he began to doubt her feelings for him.

But he soon realized something was up. Every reporter's gaze was fixed on them, cameras nearly glued to their faces.

Henrik thought, "Oops, forgot about the media for a sec."

Cecelia felt a bit guilty, thinking she wasn't good enough for Henrik. With the cameras on her, she instinctively wanted to pull her hand away, but... she hesitated. She wasn't quite ready to let go.

Since Cecelia didn't pull away, Henrik certainly wasn't going to let go either. So, they confidently held hands in front of the entire nation.

Flora, sitting in the audience, discreetly snapped a picture and sent it to Raul.

Flora: Dad, looks like you're about to get a daughter-in-law-

Raul replied almost instantly with a happy spinning emoji!

After Liam Peyton and Aisha were escorted away, the venue calmed down. The reporters, thinking the excitement was over, suddenly perked up at the sight of Henrik and

Cecelia holding hands.

"Mr. Raul, are you and your company's artist Cecelia currently dating?" a reporter asked, thrusting a microphone toward them.

Henrik glanced at Cecelia, then at their intertwined hands. If she was willing to hold his hand, she probably didn't reject him. There was hope.

He lifted his gaze to the reporters and said calmly, "Cecelia and I... aren't dating yet. For now, I'm just the one pursuing her." Cecelia: "!!!"

Mr. Raul, he actually said it! In front of so many people! Her face flushed a deep red.

The reporters were stunned too. Rumors had been circulating about Henrik's interest in Cecelia, but to hear he was actively pursuing her? And it seemed Cecelia hadn' said yes

"The way Mr. Raul looks at Cecelia is so affectionate!"

"Who can say my girl doesn't have a good background now? She's on her way to becoming the lady of Florik Entertainment!"

The live chat went wild. Everyone loves shipping couples, right? The White Smoke couple fan club was born instantly! But there were always the skeptics.

"Let's be real, Cecelia doesn't quite

match Henrik. The Irving family probably won't approve, right? Mr. Shen is a big-shot businessman, Henrikis young and successful, and Flora is an academic star. How does

Cecelia fit into this?"

"Yeah, Henrik's probably just having fun. For marriage, he'd likely choose someone from a prominent family."

Flora, still holding her phone, first followed the White Smoke couple fan club page, then read the comments, narrowing her eyes.

Two minutes later, Flora, from her verified account, posted: Meet my future sister-in-law-
