57. The Most Barbaric Words Flora's POV I continue to observe her intensely with my brain racking and trying to figure out a way about what the hell is going on with Serena but it is just so extremely hard to figure it out. It is extremely confusing most times and it just makes me want to pull my hair off. It's already getting too much and I don't think I might be able to bear this for another longer time than I can bargain. The time has come when I will need to speak my mind and talk to her about this because it is just way too much. I know I shouldn't have reacted to Lucas the way I did but I just did it on purpose to see how she is going to take it. Her reaction after everything was just something else. I have a strange feeling that her protectiveness is just much more than what she is letting out, and I know she has something she is keeping from me, but why the hell is it just so hard to figure it out? I take a deep breath as the car finally comes to a stop
Flora's POV my brain is having a hard time trying to process what the living hell is going on right now. I look around me and blink my eyelid rapidly to ensure and I'm not seeing things. what the hell is Damien doing here? it is at this point that I begin to regret actually neglecting lucas's help to take us back here and ensure that I'm in a perfect safe hands. now what the hell are we going to do now? what do I think Serena will be able to do to help out of this situation presently? it's not like she was capable of keeping Damien away from me previously while I was trying to escape from her apartment. this is just so freaky right now as I continue to look at him with wide eyes. my senses are all alert, getting ready for his next cause of action which I do not know of. he raises both of his hands as if trying to calm me down and pacify me and it is then that I noticed the bouquet of flowers in his hands now that is the second weirdest thing I have noticed
Flora's POV I gulp hard at serena's words as I continue to look at Damian who still looks like a little child trying to persuade his mom to get him something. he begins to step closer and from the expression on his face I can see determination and adamancy. "look, all I just want is for you to come back to me, okay? I have really missed you so much." desperacy is written all over his face as he makes a move Close towards me and attempts to take my hand but Serena pulls me backwards helping me to evade him as he continues to make his way closer and closer towards me. in fact the impression he is given right now is that he desperately wants me back or something and it is just making me feel so worried and confused. if he didn't actually care about me in the first place to go behind my back and take another woman as his wife, then what the living hell does he wants with me? this is just so crazy as hell and I can't contain the rage that is already brewing my mind as I glar
Flora's POVOkay so this is one of the most craziest things and the most freakish thing I have ever seen or experienced.I am seriously having a hard time trying to figure out why he is extremely this desperate to just get to me and achieve whatever stupid aim he has in his mind. I am left standing at a spot gazing at him with extremely wide eyes due to the shock passing through my body.Why is he insanely this desperate about getting to me this way?I watch him as he gazes at me with a malicious smile on his face adjusting his tuxedo and straightening the flower in his hands before slowly closing the door behind him." I am so sorry but I don't think you can get rid of me that easily This is a serious important issue that we need to talk about as the good people that we so do not make this extremely hard for the both of us."His composure presently at the moment is totally frightening as i and serena begin to step backwards examining him intensely in case he tries to do something c
Flora's POV I bite hard against my bottom lip before tilting my head slowly to look at Serena. She also turns her head to look at me and I realize that I am not actually the only one feeling this enraging shock that is hitting straight into my bones right now. It's not like it's actually a bad thing that Lucas actually intervened and came to help us. In fact I am actually glad he did and I really want to walk up to him right now and hold him so tight to show him how much I appreciate his show up presently. But I did not just expect that he will suddenly come up after us and do this immediately after the way I treated him back at his estate.I find myself watching him as he stays at a position at the entrance of the building with his arms at his back. he gestures at the officer taking Damien away from us. Damien stops directly in front of him and scoffs before smirking at him. "I honestly do not see what you gain by doing this but you do know that this is just a waste of time righ
Lucas' POV All things done and dusted I am extremely happy that that Damian of a fellow has been put back in his place and for a very considerable amount of time he won't be able to pester or disturb Flora anytime soon but I know that it is not just going to be the end. The misley little bastard like I have observed all this while is a very stubborn one that can be so infuriating and relentless when it comes to drastic dealings such as these. So I don't think I'm going to let my guard down even if for a few minutes. I stepped into the revolving door that leads to the threshold of my company while adjusting my tuxedo as the buttler standing at the door approaches me with a very calm smile on his face. "Good morning Mr Arden. Pleasure seeing you again anything I would like to do for you?" I roll my eyes at him and calmly wave my hand towards him with a fake plastic smile on my face. Yeah right. These door men who seem to try everything within their power to gain favors. They real
Flora's POV " Honestly I don't really see any good reason why you should be bothering yourself this much about that guy. I know that you guys must have actually been classmates back in your high school days but Jesus is the lord wake up and live your life in the real world flora okay? you can't just spark up a single connection just meeting him about how many days ago. It just doesn't work that way."I furrow my eyebrows and slowly tilt my head to glance at Serena seated beside me talking as always like the little mother that she is trying to control my actions once again and it makes me exhale trying my best to be cool as much as I can. I really do not want to talk about this right now but the way she is so persistent about it is already getting on my nerves. It's not like I had actually done anything to warrant this discussion. I was only bothered about the fact that I'm feeling extremely guilty right now for treating Lucas the way I did back at that estate. I mean I really have
Lucas' POVI remain at a spot on the chair examining the devious devil standing directly in front of me laying against my table and fumbling with a few documents examining them as though he wants to attend to them or something. "So now that we have come to an agreement that you are presently under my care and completely powerless without any means to go against me I think we can settle down as men and talk one on one like we should so we can discuss the next phase of the plan and see how things are really going to go this time." I grind my teeth together with fury clenching my fist tight as I think of a way to evade this situation. Good lord he's really damn smart then I anticipated. I knew it wasn't going to be that hard and it is just going to be a piece of cake for him to evade the trap I placed a few minutes ago but I never expected that he was actually going to escape it this fast and then come back with a massive super fast retaliation plan that has kept me trapped I can't e
Flora's POV I still remain at a spot with an uncontrollable intense anger in my system as Damien remains where he is, gazing at me relentlessly, not willing to back down anytime soon away from the door. I'm struggling and trying my hardest to listen to Serena's advice as she continues to pat against my back, trying to plead with me to relax and head back into the room so that we don't make a scene right at the door to her apartment, as a few people in the streets are passing by and gazing with some sort of strange expression on their faces. I shake my head and close my eyes for a few minutes before slowly stepping aside and Damien steps into the room with a wicked sort of smile on his face that makes me just to want to give him a punch that would dislocate his nose. Serena closes the door the moment he had stepped in and then gestures towards the sofa. "Make yourself comfortable, Mr Damien." She says with a fake plastic smile on her face and she watches him walk over tow

Flora's POV I grind my teeth together with extreme cold fury while I continue to pace up and down all over the sitting room with my mind finding it hard to comprehend everything that Serena has just explained to me.This is one of the all-time biggest secrets of the year and hearing about it right now has actually set all the last remaining pieces of the puzzle I have been trying to work on all this while. It is now that I have actually figured out and realize why things have actually been the way they have been. This is just crazy. So he has actually been fucking using me all this while? I am nothing but a mere pawn in his hands that he can just turn around and do as a scapegoat whenever he wants to escape all his evil perpetuations. So he is the master mind behind the dark dealings, that nearly ended the lives of 80% of inhabitants in the local part of this city, which the government have been trying to battle for years??Jesus lord, that particular fact is really driving me cr
