Chapter 20 Concern
(Dahlia POV)
I called his parents. Their initial reaction was just like mine, drag Carlo out of the hospital. Until I told them the details. What kind of people did he mess up with to end up that way? But it felt as if it was my fault…
I should have given him my money as soon as he asked for it. If I did, he would’ve had stayed home, bruise-free and healthy.
“Auntie, what happened to Carlo is really dreadful. He is critical now. He needs to undergo surgery immediately.” I slowly tell them the real situation; hope they listen to me. I couldn't bear this all by myself.

(Venal POV)I went back to the shop for the real purpose of our visit. To talk to the woman. I found the two women serving our men with milk tea. I just nodded when they stared at me.“Where did you go?” The woman greeted me vigorously. She has had this lively aura around her ever since we first met. Her name is Dahlia Amelia. Like the flower, she makes a place more beautiful.I smiled at her.Generally, the significance of Dahlia flowers is positive. Perhaps the most common of all isfinding inner strength, which roots back to the plant’s ability to withstand harsh conditions.Some say, Dahlias, are remaining graceful and standing out from the crowd since their beauty and elegance are undeniable. A kind of flower that makes the best gift for someone you admire or perceive as a strong person.This woman in front of me has the same characteristics as her name.&l

(Cedrick POV)The injuries and bruises of the weak creatures in front of me were doubled when they faced us, as a failure. They disappoint me. Tss.They were unable to evict the owner of the cafe. A blind old woman, plus two women. These women against my twenty men? And they return as a failure and injured. Agonizing in pain. What the hell?! It is a simple task, yet they failed me?!I did not listen to them at first, because I knew through their appearance that they had failed. Until I didn't realize my beating made some of 'em stop breathing. It's not my fault if they are weak.I pulled the collar of one of the losers. He is already bathed in its own blood.

(Dahlia POV)I would have taken the dust collector off the table when my attention is drawn outward where there are few cars coming again. What is this again? I closed my eyes to ignore what was in my mind. Don't be a pessimist, Dahlia, for they are wealthy customers, maybe? I haven't been able to rest for a bit, here they are again. The scoundrels. My mind didn't get it wrong. Tss.They entered one by one. There were strained smiles on their lips. A kind of smile that feels ashamed of how they look. Somebody beats them for good. I think they had already got what they were looking for.I approached one of them because no one dared to say something. Suddenly I was a little dazzled by the rays of the golden setting sun. Two more men entered; a man looking at me was making the umbrella that was familiar to me.It is my umbrella!I looked up at the long-legged man in front of me. He is the

You have no choice but to leave the premises." the man said."I also said clearly, you can't just take Grandma's cafe.""Is money Miss Dahlia still lacking for you to start packing?" Cedrick motioned his hand and the lawyer placed an additional suitcase. Cedrick opens it, and the contents are still the same. Money.They are really persistent. I smiled bitterly.“No, thank you. Go away! Shoo!” Pointing my finger at the door.I don't know where my mother conceived me for having an act of courage. But anyway, thank you.Kai smiles arrogantly. He is making fun of me."Miss Dahlia, don't wait for our men to help you pack your belongings in this cafe. You might not like the wa

(Dahlia POV)Our attention was suddenly diverted outside. A cop siren can hear approaching where we are. I don't know who called them. I looked at the men around me. Some were injured. Wait. I'm only a woman, so I can't be accused of doing this to them, right?Police pulled over right away, but I didn't expect Mrs. Sanches' daughter to accompany them; which is she dislikes me so much. Even if I did nothing to her.Does this mean, we will be kicked out of the cafe?“Catch them. I've been driving them out of here for a long time. They don't listen to me. Stubborn." Our gaze meets and gives me a smirk."Oh, Dahlia, this is what you want. Authority will evict you out of here."Then his gaze turned to the arrogant men."Mr. Carter? Mr. Ma?
