The Bloom Garden was absolutely breathtaking. Every flower in this place blooms beautifully and is planted neatly according to its colors. They were just like colorful blankets on the ground. Aria's small smile appeared on her face as she looked around.This was the first time she visited this place and everything around her was enough to amaze her and make her forget for a moment what had happened today.“I've heard about this flower garden since they talked so much about it. But I've never been here.” Aria said while exhaling a long breath. She breathed in the fresh air again and closed her eyes while enjoying the cool dew drops falling on her skin.It's already nine o'clock in the morning. The sun was bright and shining, but in highland areas like Blooms Garden, dew will still fall in the heat of the day. This area was famous for its chill air and fertile plants.They were in the highlands area of this province and the journey to get here takes two hours from the city center. Alexa
But, will it hurt her even more when she finds out who he is? when she found out what he did for a living? She lives in a different world than him. She was the light and he was the darkness.But he wants her. Only her. No one else. The more he looked at her, the more he heard her voice, and the more obsessed he was with her.She spoke to him so excitedly, so innocently, while he arranged this wicked trap to cage her forever."You need more money, that's why you work in that club." Alex stated it as a matter of fact.Aria smiled embarrassingly and nodded. She looked down at her feet and realized that the little white and red stones on the paved way were placed neatly in the shape of a flower."My Grandma is sick, I need more money for her medical bills." She answered truthfully. “It's a lot you know. But I will make it out, my Grandma is all I have. I'll find the way…” She whispered more to herself.Alexander hated it. He hated it when she was actually tired and in pain but she still a
Alexander drank a lot tonight but he walked with steady steps towards the room where he could find him. His alcohol tolerance is quite high so he could walk down the stairs easily.His room is on the second floor. He didn’t want to live on the same floor as him.He stopped right in front of the bedroom door and closed his eyes for a moment. Preparing himself so that his anger wouldn't immediately explode when he looked at his face.Without knocking on the door Alex turned the knob and opened it with one swift motion. Women's screams of shock could be heard when he opened the door without warning.He did it on purpose.“Alex! What the fuck are you doing?!”Oh, of course, Alex knew what was going on in this room. That old fuck was fucking a bunch of whores but he didn't give a shit about it.Alex looked at him with a cold expression. Hansly Grissham was busy putting on his trousers and shirt as he calmed down the ladies. The two naked women hide themselves behind the blanket, looking at
Alexander took a long drag on his cigarette before he stomped it with his feet on the ground. His back leaned on his car as he looked around, waiting for whether he got inside or he got back into his car and drove away to meet Aria. He exhaled the smoke from his nose and mouth and decided to take care of this matter first, then he could spend time with Aria longer later.He then walked into the empty warehouse which he had specifically set aside for a certain purpose.The sound of Alex's shoes echoed throughout the brick building. He walked casually, with both hands in his pockets.It had been several weeks since he had last been here. It wasn't because he hadn't detained anyone here since then, but because he still had business outside the city. Bargaining with foreign investors took quite a long time and made him almost bored. Not to mention the problems with the White Tiger gang, made him stay longer to take care of them first.The smell of dampness and moss in this place makes the
Laura gasped as her cold eyes looked at her like sharp dagger. Tears flooded her cheeks, and her entire body shook. She was very scared and panicked. She racked her brain to escape death. As she was already helpless, an idea popped up in her mind.Everyone she met in this city told her she could be a model. Her proportional body and pretty face could be the benefit for her. Unfortunately she was born in a poor family. She can compete with other girls but not with their family money. She lives in this unfair world where money can buy everything. She decided to work in this well-known big club and was so happy when she got the job.How she regretted her decision made Aria joined her workplace because that girl stole everything from her. The attention. Since Aria works there, all her customers with the big tip never ask for her companion anymore. What annoyed her most was that she could get the attention and the money without as much effort as she did. She never wears such sexy skirts, o
“You need to rest and please don’t go to overthinking mode, everything will go smoothly. Grandma, you will get better and go home soon.” Aria kissed her grandmother's forehead who was now lying in the hospital bed. She had just fed her with the porridge she had cooked from home earlier."I just thought of one thing..." Grandma drank water from the glass that Aria was holding for her.“And what is that?” Aria asked. She was nervous. She put on a quite heavy foundation on her face so that Grandma would not see the bruises.She did not know how to explain it to her, so she rather hide it from now.“Where did you get this much money to pay for everything? This room looks like a hotel room.” Grandma asked. Aria pretended to turn around and tidied up the things on the guest table. She let out a quiet sigh of relief when she heard her ask another question.Aria understood why Grandma asked that because all of this looked too much expensive for them.When Grandma had to stay overnight in the
Aria pointed at the scratches on the back of his hand. Aria looked at it carefully and narrowed her eyes."Alex...""Hm?"Aria looked up to him and squinted her eyes. "Did you just beat up someone?" She asked.Alex looked at the adorable face that was now looking at him suspiciously.Great, now she knows?"Do I look like that?" His deep voice intimidated Aria. His jet black eyes stared at her, making her almost drown there.Why is it that every time this man sees her like that her cheeks always turn red? Alex could always make her barely breathe with just his gaze.She swallowed hard before answering Alex's question. Gosh, this man."Well, from those wounds on your hands, yes. Why? Who? Oh no..." She gasped loudly and her eyes widened as she realized something. "No way...."Alex was increasingly curious about what was on this girl's mind. He raised his eyebrows, turned his sitting position so that he was fully facing Aria, he stretched one right hand over the back of the garden chair,
Those bitter and sad memories filled her again. She thought she would live happily with her mother, they would never visit the hospital anymore. They could enjoy the beautiful days together. But turned out the reality took her mother away from her. Aria thought she could stop herself from crying, but when Alex put his arm around her, her tears flowed and she sobbed. Alex had never been in this situation before, he didn't know how to calm anyone, let alone the girl who was crying next to him. He wanted to feel her sadness. He couldn't. He'd been there, worst. And the price for him to keep moving on in live was so expensive that he didn't even had the sympathy like normal human being anymore... His hand, which were originally on the back of the chair, now slowly moved to embrace those shaking shoulders. Aria flinched, when she felt him touch her, which made Alex immediately want to pull his hand back. However, what Aria did next made Alex freeze in his place and his eyes widened sli
