Chapter 152 
Jade only realized she had been duped by Flom, but the contract was signed, with no room for regret. She could only imagine what the next five years of her life would be like. 
When Flora left the office, Jade’s screams could still be heard trailing behind her. 
As Flora walked out of the gates of Elite High School, she received a call from the police station 
Aaron’s case was set. The trial was the day after tomorrow. 
On the day of the trial, Cedarvale was hit by a storm as fierce as the one on the day Flora was reborn 
Flora watched as a haggard Aaron was escorted out by the police. He had become significantly thinner in just a few days, his frame nothing but skin and bones, 
The judge presented a series of incriminating evidence, leaving Aaron with no room for defense. 
The verdict was quickly delivered 

It’s life imprisonment, just as Flora had expected 
“Flora, Mikill you! I never let this go!” Aaron noticed Flora and screamed at her in fury, wishing he could tear her apart. 
Flora watched his meltdown from across the crowd, a slow smile curling on her lips. It’s a silent mockery 
When she left the courthouse, the storm had significantly subsided. She called Connor, asking if he wanted to go out to eat. 
“Ray and Aisha are coming too, do you mind? Connor was with Ray at the moment. 
“It’s alright” Although Flora didn’t like Ray much, she was quite fond of Alsha. “Then… let’s go dine at the Grandeur Hotel.” 
She was ready to let Ray foot a hefty bill. 
At the Grandeur Hotel, Connor and Flora sat on one side, Ray and Asha on the other 
“I want this. And this 
Flora, cuddling Connor’s arm and resting her head on his hand, pointed non–stop at the menu with her finger. It didn’t matter if they could finish the food or not, since this was Ray’s treat. 
“Order whatever you want for yourself,” Ray passed his menu to Aisha, 
his t 
tone was mild but slightly awkward. 
Aisha didn’t even glance at him, picking up the menu in front of her instead. 
“A medium rare steak and a cup of coffee, no sugat please.” 
“Since when did you start liking coffee?” 
Aisha had always detested bitter tastes. She used to love drinking yogurt the most 
“People grow up, and tastes naturally change.” 
Do people change as well?” 
Hearing Ray’s words, Aisha’s hand, which was on the table, moved under it, “I think, you’re more qualified to answer that question than I 
am.” 
“Can’t you fucking talk properly!” Ray cursed, his eyes reddening slightly. 
Aisha stood up, “I’m going to the restroom.” Then, she strode away. 
Flora’s head was still on Connor’s arm. She curiously observed the tense Aisha and Ray. What exactly had happened between these two in the past? 
“Have an orange.” 
Connor popped a peeled orange segment into her mouth. The flesh spread its sweet flavor in her mouth, and Flora comfortably squinted her eyes. 
Such a show of affection! 
Ray turned his gaze away, refusing to look at the couple in front of him. Instead, he looked in the direction Aisha had left. 
And he saw something terrible. 
Alsha was talking to another man. 
Unlike her usual confrontational demeanor with Ray, there was something gentle about her at that moment.
