FAZER LOGINCHAPTER 73THE PLAN TO GET RID OF FLORARichard looked for Flora after the event, but she was nowhere to be found. It was as if she had disappeared into thin air.Flora had known this would likely happen. She knew that either Debby or Richard must find a way to talk to her after the event, and if one of them caught up with her, it could lead to a misunderstanding, so to protect her image, she had asked Adrian to leave the moment the event ended. But despite her rush, a few people with genuine interest still managed to reach her and ask for her business card.After searching without any luck, Richard gave up and went back inside to find Debby, who was still with her friends so that they'll drive home together. Well, even if he had found Flora, he knew the chances of her forgiving him were slim – not after he admitted he never loved her, and confidently hiring a gigolo to sleep with her and using it as an excuse to divorce her and marry his mistress. No woman can forgive such a thing
Chapter 72FEELING EMBARRASSED.The entire hall went silent. Everyone turned toward the voice. Debby lowered her head in shame and sat back quietly. She turned and looked, only to see that it was the same woman who had bumped into her and her husband that had made the bid.No one could raise their paddle again. After waiting for a long moment, the auctioneer finally brought down the gavel and Flora was announced as the winner. Meanwhile, Richard and Debby were beginning to suspect the voice to be Flora's, and they were only waiting for the mask to be removed to confirm their suspicions.Adrian leaned slightly toward her after she went to the stage and returned with the item."Careful," he whispered with a small smile. "You're starting to get people's attention, and I can sense that Debby is not happy with what you just did.""Let them look," Flora replied quietly. "After all, that's the reason I'm here. To provoke someone's anger and crush their ego."The final item of the night was
Chapter 71THE AUCTION That evening, Flora and Adrian sat in the living room with Dan, watching television, when a news headline caught Adrian's attention.A wealthy businessman in the luxury and decoration sector was organizing an auction the next day. His father was gravely ill, and he needed a large sum urgently for his treatment. Auctioning off some of his prized collection was his only option.Since this fell squarely within WELVIS's sector, Adrian turned to Flora. "Will you come with me to the event tomorrow?"Flora already knew that such an event would attract the city's wealthiest men, and almost certainly, she knew Richard would not miss such an event."Yes," she said. "I'll definitely love to come. Who knows, I might see an item I like as well." She said with a casual shrug.Sunday arrived, and the auction was set to begin at 2:00 p.m.Flora was going through her wardrobe that afternoon, unsure of what to wear, when the door creaked open.Adrian stepped in. He was holding a
CHAPTER 70FIRST MEETING WITH THE WOMAN WHO DESTROYED HER MARRIAGE.Mr. Smith stood frozen, his hand still gripping the cane."You expect me to believe all this?" he said, his voice almost shaking, though he tried to sound firm. "A DNA report? A wedding sabotage? These are serious accusations, Adrian.""They're not accusations, Dad. They're facts. Christine actually did manipulate all of them.""How do I know you're not just making all this up to protect her?" He pointed his cane weakly toward Flora.Adrian's jaw tightened. "If you doubt me, call Doctor John yourself. You once told me he's your old friend. I'm sure he'll tell you everything."Mr. Smith hesitated, but something in his chest told him his son wasn't lying. Adrian had never once lied to him, not even as a boy. Still, he needed proof because he has always trusted Christine and she has never given him a reason to doubt her as well."Fine," the old man said. "Show me something. Anything."Adrian pulled out his phone and bega
CHAPTER 69THE TRUTH ABOUT CHRISTINEFlora walked back into her office with a heavy heart.She tried to focus on the three files waiting on her desk, but her mind kept drifting back to Richard's face outside the restaurant. His voice. His fake regret.She hated that he still had the power to shake her, even for a moment.Shaking her head with a sigh, she forced herself to sit and go through the documents one by one. The weekend traffic wasn't going to wait for her feelings.By the time she finished, it was already 5:50 p.m.She packed her bag quickly, said a brief goodnight to the security guard downstairs, and drove off. But the road was worse than she expected. Cars moved slowly, one after another, while horns sounded from every direction, and a drive that should have taken twenty-five minutes stretched into almost an hour. By the time the mansion gates came into view, her neck was stiff and her patience had worn out.It was past 7:00 p.m. when she finally pulled into the parking l
CHAPTER 68IS RICHARD REGRETTING?Flora looked better than ever.Richard stared at her, his lips almost trembling.“Flora, are you still angry with me?” he asked, his tone laced with something like a surge of mockery and remorse at the same time.“No. I’m not angry with you, Richard. But I hate you! I despise everything that has to do with you.”“Are you really that shameless to ask me such questions?” she snapped.“You took my father’s shares. You destroyed my reputation. You made everyone believe I was an unfaithful wife, Richard.”“I regret it.” The words slipped out of Richard’s mouth as if he had been waiting for the perfect opportunity to apologize.Flora lowered her head and shook it. She curled her lips and almost laughed. Richard must still think she's still a fool, huh?From the expression on his face, she can tell the fakeness in his claim of regret.“Your regret means nothing to me, Richard!”“In fact, if I can make you disappear with just the snap of a finger, I’ll gladl
CHAPTER 4THIRSTY FOR REVENGE "You're right. There's absolutely nothing I can do ." Flora nodded in affirmation. She raised her eyebrows slowly, blood cursing through her body as her heart slammed against her ribs.She looked at Debby with utter disgust.So, all this while, Richard has been sleepi
CHAPTER 3IT WAS ALL A SET UPFlora widened her eyes as her body trembled in fear. She gazed at the man who just returned to his couch and was seated comfortably, lazily flicking his cigarette as if nothing happened.She shook her head. She still can't believe that this was the same man that had pr
CHAPTER 2DIVORCE WITHOUT A PENNY A divorce?Flora's face turned pale and colourless. Her mind was taken aback at the colourful and most talked about wedding they just had last month.Uncontrollable tears began to stream down the corners of her eyes."No Richard, please listen to me. We can fix t
CHAPTER 1:CAUGHT IN BED: SHE NEVER SAW IT COMING It was drizzling outside and Flora was in the kitchen, preparing her husband's favourite dinner, macaroni and cheese, when her phone suddenly began to ring.She glanced at the caller ID and smiled. It's her husband, Richard Wilson.Today is their
