Abandoned Flower's

Pain

'No!!'

Winter put the wine glass a little tight on the table. He took a long breath, though,

"We shouldn't have met Flo. Not as a man and a woman, not even as a political couple." Winter paused and struggled with her own thoughts.

"You are a flower that contains poison, your extraordinary appearance makes my heart tremble violently. Destroying resolve. I'm so scared of fate between you and me."

"Better you keep looking simple and pathetic. Like a worthless wildflower, that way I can throw you away at will. If only I could throw you away right now..." Winter was a little raved but his consciousness remained awake.

'Tok tok!' Winter's bedroom door was knocked, he could guess who was coming.

"Come in!" Winter corrected her sitting position and smiled welcoming Summer.

"Good night, Mr. Winter. What's calling me tonight?" Although it looks graceful but the happy smile from Summer's lips cannot be hidden.

The woman even got a little run when she got the info that Winter invited her tonight. A rare opportunity that she would not waste even her makeup back before coming out.

"I want to discuss some work, are you willing? It's time for a break but I'm still thinking about some of our business planning." Only a job that makes Winter a little can forget his anger, after all he still wants to know his heart when close to Miss Summer.

Sometimes Summer acts like she's keeping something to make it hard for Winter to guess the woman in front of her, after all Summer's smile is quite attractive in her eyes.

"I don't mind." Summer's face looked calm yet she felt very happy in her heart. "May I?" Summer stared at the chair in front of Winter.

"Ah yes!" Winter smiled awkwardly, "Please sit down."

With Summer gracefully sitting before Winter, they chatted lightly while discussing business planning also interspersed with laughter. Summer sensed that she had already advanced two steps faster.

At night not visiting the duchess's room, but instead looking for me. Maybe it's good luck to me.

"Madam, you should eat porridge. Don't fill your stomach with tea too much." Altez placed a bowl of porridge on the dining table at Flo's residence.

"I know." Flo still continued to soak her morning tea gracefully. It's raining since early morning, so Flo decided to have breakfast inside.

"What else is it??" Flo saw Altez's movements that seemed like he wanted to convey something.

Altez was still smiling blandly.

"Tell me. Good or bad, all without exception! Did I do anything while I was sick yesterday???" Flo still drank her tea gracefully.

"No. It was still tightly closed!!" Altez smiled convincingly.

"Then??"

"Good news!!!" Altez raised his hand and smiled broadly awkwardly. "Tu. Winter didn't see the concubines at all, it's been almost a few weeks."

Flo is silent and still waiting for Altez to speak because he believes this is not what Altez wants to say.

"No. young lady of the Grace family." Altez said at last. "Miss Summer, she's..."

..

'Braa!!!!!'

"Come out now!! Tell me what rotten trick did he do??!!!" Flo shouted furiously.

"Mrs Flower!!" Some of the servants panicked as Flo furiously barged into the guest residence.

"Mrs can't go in like this." The waiter was confused as to how and Flo had ignored them.

Summer asked for permission this morning for Winter so she could start working a little afternoon, because she had a few glasses of wine last night and it was enough to make her head hit by a little bit of dizziness this morning.

The commotion outside his residence was enough to shock him, he walked out toward the source of the sound.

Summer looks up at Flo,

Well-favoured.

Summer unknowingly admires Flo's beauty.

"Are you the young miss of the Grace family???!" Flo stared hard at Summer.

"really. There's ap...."

'Ohoooooo!!!' Even Summer had not finished talking, a slap soared her cheeks that it made her fall down.

"What's going on? Who you??" Summer was very surprised by the treatment she got, she held her cheeks that felt hot and sore.

"You want to know who I am??!" Flo stood right in front of Summer looking down on the fallen woman. "I'm the grand duchess."

Summer's eyes are wide open,

The grand duchess?! Be... means she's the legal wife of Mr Winter?!!

"Me. though, you can't just slap me like this." Summer got up and cleaned her clothes.

'Yahoo!'kkkk!!' The slap again landed on Summer's cheek.

"Why can't I?? *******! A lowly woman like you deserves to be beaten. What dirty tricks do you use to seduce married men??!! Is it worth spending the night in a married man's room?!!"

"We're talking about work." Summer is further cornered by Flo's actions and she feels pain and shame.

"I don't have any milk..."

'Ohoooo!!'

Again Flo put Summer's cheeks without pity and pulled Summer's collar.Their faces are now facing in close distance.

"Let this pain be a lesson to you. Let this pain be a reference so that you do not dare to act recklessly or even think about it."

Flo slams Summer until the woman steps back.

"Are you over-assessing yourself so much that you feel you are so valuable here?? Remember you're just a business tool from the Grace family for cooperation." Flo's gaze was so horrible for Summer.

With quivering lips and glassy eyes Summer held onto her extremely painful cheek,

Is this the demon in Luckingham that Mr Winter meant?
