Last Updated:
2021-10-04 18:11:26When she landed in the Blossom Country, she immediately felt the warm breeze of the night.
Good thing she checked the weather and packed the right clothes.
After clearing the immigration, she was surprised to see a chauffeur holding out her name with a bouquet of flowers.
She didn’t know this is how the hotel treats their VIP guests.
“Greetings from your host, Mr. FlowerMan” the chauffeur said.
Her jaw dropped at the mention of the name.
How did he find out about her flight details?
She knew better than to get inside the car blindly.
“Thanks. I will accept the flowers but my hotel will pick me up” she gracefully declined.
“I’m from the hotel, Miss Yates. This is just a special arrangement from Mr. FlowerMan. Feel free to confirm with the hotel” the old man smiled at her.

The hotel confirmed her pick-up service and provided the plate numb

When she went back to her hotel, she decided to check up on Daniel.Maybe he’s not upset with her anymore.But when her call connected, she immediately hung up after the first ring.What would she say anyway?That she went overseas to confirm if FlowerMan is the same boy who gave her flowers when she was a baby? And then what?Can she say she could not accept that Daniel easily accepted his arranged wedding?Can she tell him she doesn’t want to divorce anymore without losing her face?That she could not bear the emptiness she feels every time she wakes up without him beside her.She didn’t realize her tears started flowing again until she heard her phone ringing.“Hey!” she tried to clear her throat before answering.“Sorry, I missed your call” Daniel said gently.“I ah uhmm…” she heaved a deep breath to steady her voice.“I just want

After Daniel ended his call with Sylvia, he tapped his desk and a number keypad was projected.He keyed-in a six-digit number and pressed his index finger and his drawer opened up.He put a pen in a pen holder to prevent the drawer from locking.It is a normal looking desk, alright.Until someone tries to open it forcibly.Someone like Celine.‘Ahhhhh’He took a deep breath and went under the desk to inspect the damage that Celine has done.Who knew her kick could be deadly?He ran his fingers and felt the dent on the wood portion.“Tsk” he could not help but feel sorry for his desk.He made the desk himself.Combining his woodcraft and technology.It’s one of his masterpieces.And the annoying heiress just kicked it unabashedly.‘Ha!’The annoying heiress.Is it difficult to say, ‘don’t agree to the wedding, Dan

“What’s the meaning of this?” she asked in confusion.“Why do you have my underwear?” she looked intently at Daniel expecting him to panic but she only saw calmness.What is happening?Daniel took a deep breath and walked towards the tall book shelf behind the desk.“Someone took it from you, I just took it back” he then placed a folder full of her photos in provocative positions.Celine didn’t know how to respond.“It’s not what you think”“What do you think I think?” Daniel calmly asked back.“I was assaulted that day. His name was Enrique” she started recalling everything that happened at the party.How Enrique approached her and how he mentioned having a meeting with Daniel.

The old man was really grumpy.And why wouldn’t he?Celine said that the ceremony will only involve a few guests. And it would be a simple celebration.

No matter what they wanted to say, it’s all useless now.They were at this stand still when the Blooms arrived.“Ah, Daniel you came. Celine would be relieved” Dr. Bloom was filled with vigour.He never expected the wedding atmosphere to lift Grandma Bloom’s spirits.They just came from the make-shift tent where she inspected the final decorations and her eyes were dreamy.“Let’s get married again tomorrow, dear” she joked as she gave instructions to the wedding planning team.“Grandma” Daniel greeted.Grandma Bloom acknowledged his presence but turned her attention to the la

Their reactions were not like as she has expected.“What if Daniel doesn’t want to get married?” Aunt Marge suddenly asked.She was worried that Daniel would have to give in to Celine again.For the Stevensons, they place a high value to marriage and family. Since their businesses could easily attract those unscrupulous characters, they needed the kind of security that only blood and family could provide.“Of course, Daniel will marry Celine. There’s no way that Daniel will object” Sylvia defended Celine from the Stevensons.“I understand all your concern. Of course, Daniel will have to agree this time. Anyway, I prepared the ceremony thinking that Daniel has really found a wife. It turns out, it’s only a ruse to throw off the Solomons.” Celine explained.“Daniel has already said that he will only get married because of love.

But then again, she’s Britney Smith, only she can do what she does and only she can accept this kind of embarrassment.“Britney, just cross Daniel’s name on your list. He’s not used to dealing with emotions so you will really lose out. He’s also not romantic so you will be really bored. Aren’t you embarrassed if you have to set an appointment with me if you want to have intimate nights with him? Even if you managed to marry him, he will not acknowledge your marriage in public so no one will really know that he’s your husband. Trust me on this one, he’s been married for seven years now and yet no one knows about his wife. If you want to receive flowers, you will either have to plant it yourself or order it online to

So, I thought I can call you again since you’re divorced now” Britney said sheepishly.Daniel heaved a deep breath to calm the rage he felt before replying again.“Ms. Smith, news of my divorce may have circulated but it doesn’t mean anyone can just call me for dates. I’m not that desperate.” he replied in a stern voice.“That’s not what I meant, Daniel. I just got back to the country and I have a project proposal.
