"Flora, did you really mean it that David protected your friend, the one who almost cost me my life?" Rowan's voice trembled with a mix of disbelief and hurt. She couldn't fathom the idea that David, the man she had once trusted and cared for, would prioritize Flora's wishes over her safety and the well-being of their unborn child.

Flora, maintaining a cold and indifferent demeanor, looked at Rowan with a superiority that fueled Rowan's anguish. "What are you thinking? That David will choose you over my requests from him? Sorry to let you know, he loves me and me alone, so back off."

Rowan's eyes welled up with a mixture of sadness and frustration

Flora left Rowan alone in the coffee shop, the weight of her words hanging in the air. Rowan remained seated, trying to process the revelation that David had chosen to protect Flora's interests over seeking justice for the person who had nearly cost her the life of her unborn child.

    Flora's eyes were filled with a mix of frustration and confusion as she confronted David. "David, what happened? My uncle called, saying the proposal he submitted to your company wasn't for us. Is something wrong?" She had welcomed him warmly, taken her suitcase to the room, and set the table for both of them. David, having just finished eating, wiped his mouth with a napkin. He sighed, understanding the gravity of Flora's concerns. "Did you ask your uncle if he received another email?" he inquired while doing a final cleaning of his hands. Flora replied hesitantly, as if stumbling over her words, "Yes, but it's not clear to me. He mentioned being summoned to an oral defense or interview." "Okay, then wait until tomorrow," David suggested. Flora, seated in front of him, clenched her fist but tried to maintain a calm facade. "Must our company go through the same process as others? You know we're still the best, and you can't possibly want us to..." Flora continued, but David interje

David's question hung heavy in the air as he gently removed her hand from his body. "I'm trying to please my man," Flora declared with unwavering confidence. "And you should know, I don't want this between us. The first pregnancy was a mistake that shouldn't have happened, and I sense you want another error to replay," David's words draped the room, his eyes betraying simmering anger. "David, are you saying you don't want any intimacy between us?" Flora's chest rose and fell, her attempt at managing her anger evident. "Flora, you know me. The last thing I wanted was for you to get pregnant before we got married," David explained, prompting a subtle smile from Flora. "Fine, so you don't care if your father rejects me again. I guess you don't care about marrying me anymore," Flora asserted, attempt

He resembled a thief caught red-handed, grappling with the uncertainty of facing the repercussions of his concealed secrets.David, wearing an expression of fear and paranoia, replied with a shaky, "Nothing," before hastily retreating to the wardrobe, desperately searching for something to wear."David, we're partners. We shouldn't keep secrets. What's going on? You look so paranoid," Flora pleaded, closing the emotional distance between them. The impulse to comfort him tugged at her, but she restrained herself, fearing it might only intensify David's inner turmoil.Despite her earnest plea, David remained silent, engrossed in changing his clothes.

Just then, James' phone buzzed, interrupting the silence that engulfed the atmosphere. Seeing the caller, James picked up at once.

I panicked when I found out David had regained his memory but didn't want me anymore. I thought everything was over, after years of patiently waiting," Flora confessed, a smile playing on her lips."I've told you that you don't have any problems.

And I'm disappointed that you would think so little of your father," David's father said. "I don't care, Dad. If she knows something about you significant enough to trade for my safety, then it must be substantial, and I need to know about it today," David said defiantly "Sit down, and I will tell you everything," David's father said. Reluctantly, David slumped into the chair, his anger palpable, emanating from him like a dark cloud. "Firstly, I discovered the kind of person Flora was after you started seeing her.

    "What do you mean, David? It was the marriage certificate we both signed, isn't that what we both wanted back then? Just because you didn't have the memory doesn't change the fact that your mother is aware of it, and a mother can't lie," Flora's voice came over the phone, her tone laced with frustration and desperation. She wasn't even attempting to come to David's house, realizing she had nothing left to lose."Flora, even if it is true, I don't want this marriage anymore. We have to annul the certificate," David stated firmly, using a word he never wanted to utter."What? David, are you trying to use me and then discard me? We've been dating for almost seven years.

Since meeting James, she felt a shift within herself, a desire to embody qualities that might earn his admiration. But could she confide in Rowan that the catalyst for her change was the very man who harbored feelings for her?"Miss Rowan, I can't say there's any love involved. Let's just say someone's critique nudged me towards self-improvement," Naomi replied, her voice tinged with uncertainty. Rowan's gentle smile lingered, leaving Naomi to ponder if her response had hit the mark."You know, being challenged by someone and feeling compelled to better oneself because of them, well, it's akin to love.
