Chapter 26 Despise
(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? I told you I would take care of them.” The tone of her voice suddenly changed for them. Such a flirt."Rent is paid on a monthly b

(Dahlia POV)(Dahlia POV)They didn't go till Grandma awoke. Tss.But I couldn't believe Grandma's reaction when I told her about the problem. Instead of slapping the arrogant man, she smiled at him and kissed him on the cheek.Grandma was ecstatic when she met him."Grandma?"“I'm sorry, dear; I'm getting old. I'm no longer able to run this cafe.”Why is the faith card suddenly shifting? I assumed Grandma didn't want to lose the store since she had owned it for a long time and served her regular customers.“Grandma, we should not be afraid of them. We will be going to fight our right for this cafe." I urged her on.“Hija, we can'ttake action against them. We were unable to fight for our rights." Grandma gave me the negative response. She turns her back with a sigh."We will accept

(Dahlia POV)When my cheap phone rang, I wasn't ashamed to takeit out. This way, the pickpockets will not attack me.The caller is Auntie Esmeralda.“How is Carlo doing? Was he truly hospitalized? So, who has hurt my son? We have a claim against whoever did this to him. You simply need to have proof that Carlo was beaten. We may be able to make money from this.”I just closed my eyes to what I heard.People nowadays require money. Money is what defiles the majority's character.Carlo's mother was more interested in money than her son. It appears that their approaches make me want to vomit.“He has surgery this morning. Your son's tongue was chopped.” I uttered it lethargically.I'm not interested in talking, especially if they're more obsessed with money than with life. And today I learned how much I despise people who exploit human life for theirfinancial

(Dahlia POV)“Count it, my dear. Don't be surprised by what you see. I know you've only recently seen this amount of money. They spent a lot of money only to get the small café.” Grandma expresses her pride to me.I'm not sure if I'll be honest with Grandma. I'm worried about her health. She appeared to be in a good mood at the moment. Should I become the Queen of Killjoy? No.We are not the ones who win the contracts. Kai had been laughing uncontrollably when we left. Damn. He ensures that I will return to face him."All right, Grandma, I'll count it now." I lied to her about the money for sake of her health.I was almost in tears as I counted the plain paper. But in my mind, I was already devising a strategy for dealing with the Prince of Arrogance. Later, I'll give them the perfect trouble they're looking for."How much did we receive?""Two mill

(Cedrick POV)While we waited for Miss Dahlia's return, I was talking to the person who is in charge to arrange the entire café to make Miss Yuki's writing comfy. Master Kai also instructs us to make sure the place doesn't change too much. Miss Yuki's willingness to get the place in the first place will be ruined if it is altered altogether.It's getting late. The heavy rain returns with ferocity. It was nearly dark and gloomy all around.I don't believe the woman Master Kai is hoping for will return. I cast a glance in his direction, but he seemed preoccupied with what he was going on at the counter while listening to mediocre music.When Master Kai suddenly came to a halt. Turn his attention to me. He grins, and I offer him a half-smile. He cleaned his hands and wiped themwith a dry cloth.I have a feeling he could already smell Miss Dahlia's scent heading in this place."Serve this to our table later, C

(Cedrick POV)“Ouch.Cedrick, she isn't interested in you."As if I'm the one who's interested inthe woman. "Perhaps she is interested in me?"“How did you get such a thick face?” Ah! It's natural for an arrogant individual to act this way. But please remember that I am not interested in even a single strand of your hair. It didn't even cross my mind to like you. I won't ever fall for you. Arrogant! Tss. I'm just wasting my time here. Kindly give me the money, now.”"Really? You can't possibly love someone like me? Miss Dahlia, maybe you're not aware who you are talking to.” It is a sense of warning."No!" The woman responded aloud.Master Kai, I think we are also wasting a lot of timehere, dealing a nonsense thing."Please have a seat." Oh sh*t. He wants to prolong the discussion.
Nine Months Chapter 34
(Dahlia POV)But now I'm wondering how to retrieve the money Grandma thought she had.So, I went straight to the police station. I reported about the transaction and the fake money that we received. But what I got…“What makes you think they should compensate you, Miss? Your Grandma’s cafe was one of the tenants in the lot you didn't own. Miss Sha-sha has come to report on this incident. Here's her affidavit. It is stated that the party who purchased the land has no obligation to pay you. It's a good thing the money they offered you was fake. If you accept real money, you could be sued.""Are we really going to get nothing from them, Sir? I mean, they trick us.""It's the same as this, Miss; if you're fighting for something, hire a lawyer and go to court to sue them, so that we can have the warrant arrest if it's proven that they're offenders."
