Kelly’s POV“Why did you do that?” I said, trying to hold my temper. My three employees are now around us, waiting for my signal to intervene but I won’t drag them in.“Is this how you treat your customers? Turning your back on them?”“Why? You wanna buy my flowers? Unfortunately, I only sell my flowers to those who genuinely want my products.”She gritted her teeth. “Don’t act so high and mighty, Kelly. You are still a loser. You’re trying so hard to soar high and reach my level but you know that you can never equal me in any aspect.”I laughed sarcastically as I faced her completely. “I’m not trying to equal you because from the very beginning, I am above you. Proven by how you rushed here accusing me of some ridiculous bullsh*ts. You’re just finding someone to blame, Lexi.”“Don’t act so innocent, Kelly! I know you are trying to steal my fiance!”“Are you really accusing me of that, Lexi? Are you that scared of your own shadow? You think I’ll stoop on your level just to get back at
Kelly’s POVHow did he find me? I don’t know what to do while standing in front of him. He was holding my hands while kneeling in front of me. The corner of my eyes pooled with tears. Seeing him like this breaks my heart. I let him go so he can finally be happy with the woman he truly loves but why is he like this?His hair grew. He even has facial hair now. His eyes has dark circles around and he seemed to have lose weight.“H-How did you find me?”He shook his head, “I’m sorry. I-I’ve been following you.”I squeezed my eyes closed and pulled my hands back. “What are you doing, Pierce? Why are you doing this?”My heart feels so heavy. The content of his diary was still messing with my mind and now he’s here, messing with my heart. Why is he so complicated? Why is he doing this to me? He asked me to let him go because he wants his first love back, now he wants me back? For what reason?I pressed my lips together and looked at him with a hardened expression, “You should leave, Pierce.
Pierce’s POVKelly shove me away. She doesn’t wanna see me anymore. She didn’t even believe me when I told her that I’m in love with her. It was all too late for us. I was too late when I realized my feelings. I couldn’t bring back the time, but I want another chance to make things right. I was already with the person I should end up with, but I ruined everything because of my stupid feelings for Lexi.“Where have you been?”I paused right after I entered my house. It was a new house given by my mother as a gift after my engagement with Lexi. She doesn’t want to live in the same house where I used to live with Kelly and I don’t want to live there too because in every corner of that house, I can see the woman I married.I swallowed hard and looked away. I walked towards the kitchen and she trailed me, asking the same question.“I’m asking you, Pierce. Where have you been? You didn’t come home for days. What’s wrong with you?”I didn’t come home because I spent those days in the house w
Kelly’s POVThe morning was calm and bright. I was arranging some bouquets when the door chime created a soft noise and someone entered the shop. I prepared a sweet smile and was about to greet our first customer for the day when I realized who it was.Wearing a black tshirt, faded jeans, black rubber shoes and an exposed necklace with a thick chain and anchor as the pendant, Klay entered with a straight face. He was already walking towards my way.He looked so handsome in his casual attire. I even saw a woman enter the shop after him, looking at him shamelessly, pretending to be interested in flowers.I felt awkward around him because of our argument but I gave him a welcoming smile, “Good morning. Are you looking for a particular flower?”He stopped a meter away from me and roamed his eyes around. My lips parted as I realized he’s too tall and the level of my eyesight just reached his neck.“What flower symbolizes a sincere apology?”An apology? He must’ve upset Emily and he’s tryin
Kelly’s POVI was standing in front of the full length mirror while looking at myself when Klay knocked on my bedroom. I gave him my address to pick me up for the charity gala tonight.When he entered, our gazes met through the mirror. I smiled at him as he looked at me with his usual serious face. I’m wearing a black gown and although my baby bump is now obvious, I could still proudly say that the shape of my body is perfect for the dress.Klay slowly walked towards me and stopped behind me. For some reason, I found myself unable to take my eyes off of him through the mirror. He’s wearing a black suit while his hair is waxed and brushed backwards. He looked so dashing and I can’t help but to silently praise his looks.Without saying anything, Klay put a beautiful necklace on my neck. The elegance of the necklace complimented my dress perfectly. My hair that was curled to the tips reached my waist as the color of my skin stood out from the color of my dress.“You look perfect,” Klay w
Kelly’s POV“PIERCE!” I shouted when Pierce grabbed Klay and punched him on the face. His eyes were sharp and burning as he tried to attack Klay again but I blocked his way, spreading my arms as I protected Klay.Pierce looked at me with painful eyes as he shook his head, “I’m sorry, Kelly. I was forced to say those words…”“Why are you here?” I asked instead of paying attention to what he’s saying.He swallowed hard, “Kelly, I want you back.”“Are you stupid?” Klay punched this time and I couldn’t stop them anymore as they started exchanging punches.Klay knows boxing and I’m worried that he might send Pierce to the hospital but I was shocked after realizing that Pierce can fight too. Since when did he learn to fight?“You want her back? *sshole! You lost your chance!”“She’s mine, Carver! She’s originally mine! She belongs to me and not to some devil like you!”“STOP IT! STOP FIGHTING!” I shouted but they wouldn't stop.I swallowed hard and looked around. That’s when I saw Klay’s ri
Kelly’s POVI kept on swallowing hard, feeling the discomfort between my legs. Under the thick sheet of blanket, I’m only wearing a large black shirt owned by the man laying behind me. His arm was resting on my waist and his warmth wasn't helping with my messy thoughts.I’ve been awake for almost twenty minutes now but I still can’t process what happened.I feel so ashamed of what happened. I slept with Klay. I had s*x with my step brother and this is making me so crazy. Yes, we’re not related by blood but the fact that his late mother was once married to my father, I couldn’t help but feel stupid.I need to get up. Yes!I was about to pull myself up when Klay’s arm around my waist tightened. My eyes widened after realizing that he’s now awake.“Where are you going?” He asked with a hoarse, bedroom voice.My lips parted, the same time I felt my heart skip a beat. It’s confirmed. I have feelings for him and what happened between us last night intensified those hidden feelings.I flinch
Klay’s POVI’m sitting on the dining chair while roaming around the kitchen. This apartment is small but suitable for someone who’s single. There’s two bedrooms and I supposed Ana was the one using the other bedroom. I know Kelly brought her when she moved out.While I was waiting for Kelly, I remembered everything that happened last night. She gave herself to me and even when it’s out of impulsiveness, I can feel that she didn’t regret anything. She willingly gave herself to me and I couldn’t help but to feel so happy and proud.The woman I’m interested in seemed to be interested too. What’s more amusing than that? I couldn't be happier that I prepared our breakfast. I cooked it myself even when Ana tried to stop me.“Sir, do you want coffee?”I shook my head while looking at the food on the small dining table, “I’ll wait for Kelly.”“Should I call her now, sir?”Ana seemed afraid of seeing me angry. I couldn’t blame her. She knows that I become evil when angry but today is different
