Continuous text across columns

Currently using “layout grids” for pages. I want to add a section (or even create a separate page to link to) to the middle of the page the looks like the image in the link below.

I believe I can accomplish the layout using “layout grids” but would like to know if there is a better way.

The key is to have text flow from top left to bottom right (as indicated by the arrows) in one continuous story on the page without breaking up the text box into multiple text boxes. Actually not even sure this is possible but I thought someone might know the best way to accomplish this.

I read about "flexbox container" https://www.wysiwygwebbuilder.com/flexbox.html but "flexbox container" as described on the information page, for whatever reason, is not an option in my toolbox. Flexgrid and flexcontainer are the only two options.

I am trying to achieve something that looks like this https://www.lachance.org/temp/WB_example.jpg

Unfortunately, there is no option in HTML to implement this functionality.

flexbox container = flex container, see also the images in the tutorial.
