Chapter 46 Kelly's POV 55 vouchers " Why did you do that ? " I said , trying to hold my temper . My three employees are now around us , waiting for my signal to intervene but I won't drag them in . " Is this how you treat your customers ? Turning your back on them ? " " Why ? You wanna buy my flowers ? Unfortunately , I only sell my flowers to those who genuinely want my products . " She gritted her teeth . " Don't act so high and mighty , Kelly . You are still a loser . You're trying so hard to soar high and reach my level but you know that you can never equal me in any aspect . " I laughed sarcastically as I faced her completely . " I'm not trying to equal you because from the very beginning . I am above you . Proven by how you rushed here accusing me of some ridiculous bullshits . You're just finding someone to blame , Lexi . " " Don't act so innocent , Kelly ! I know you are trying to steal my fiance ! " " Are you really accusing me of that , Lexi ? Are you that scared of your own shadow ? You think I'll stoop on your level just to get back at you ? I'm not childish . " " Quit acting so clean , Kelly ! Pierce hasn't been coming home and he won't answer my calls . You are hiding my fiance ! " I smirked . " Now I get it . Let me tell you one thing ... " I paused and leaned to whisper ... " Karma is a bitch . " " You are the bitch here , Kelly ! " I tilted my head . " Maybe . Perhaps I'm your Karma ? " She lifted her hand and was about to slap me when I grabbed the flowers she threw on the floor and pushed the petals in her mouth . I'm not violent , but when I am provoked like this , I won't sit back and cry in the corner . I will fight for myself and especially for my baby . Lexi screamed and stumbled . She accidentally grabbed the flowers and it fell on her as she fell on the floor . Somehow , I feel pity while looking at her . She's now crying on the floor while cursing continuously and pushing all the ruined flowers away from her . For a moment , I saw myself in her . I was too blinded by my love for Pierce that I forgot myself . I always put his happiness over mine and forgot that I'm also a human being who has dreams and goals in life . Pierce was good to me . He treated me fair and right but he didn't love me . He gave me everything . His support . His attention . His effort but he lacked one thing . Love . He didn't love me the way I love him and now I'm seeing my old self in Lexi . How did a successful woman end up like this ? So crazy over a man that she's losing herself ? 1/3 14:45 Wed , Sep 3 Chapter 46 55 vouchers Too much love . I think that's the problem . The unrequited love that's very toxic and deadly . No one's to blame but ourselves as we brought ourselves in this situation . " Pierce didn't contact me again , Lexi , " I lied as I looked down at her . " If you want your relationship to work , you should trust him . " She shook her head . " Just admit that you're secretly meeting him , Kelly ! " Rage was visible in her eyes but I'm too tired of listening to her bullshits . 99 " Pierce and I were over , Lexi . You know that he chose you over me . There's no way that he'll still see me and there's no fcking way that I'll still meet him . We don't have feelings for each other . Shouldn't you be talking to him about this matter instead of attacking me here ? You are just wasting both of our time . " " How can I talk to him when he hasn't been coming home ? Huh ? How can I talk to him when he doesn't even answer my calls ? Don't fool me here , Kelly ! I know you still have feelings for my fiance ! " I shot an eyebrow up . " Seriously ? Why would you bring up my feelings when you're the problem here ? Instead of talking to him , you are here , accusing me . You should trust your partner , Lexi . A relationship won't work if you're not trusting each other and all you could do is point a finger and find someone to blame . " She was lost for words . She stared at me , anger was still visible in her eyes , but I can see that she somehow calmed down . For a moment , I thought she got my point but she didn't . She angrily pulled herself up and threw a small black notebook on the table in front of me . My forehead creased when I got to see some of the pages in the notebook . My lips parted in shock after realizing that it was Pierce's diary and he wrote on one page that he realized he's in love with me and he wanted me back . " Now tell me that I don't have the right to accuse you . " No ! This is not true . Why would he even ask for a divorce if I'm important to him ? He realized that he loves me right after I left ? That's ridiculous ! He must've mistook guilt for love . I looked at Lexi and shook my head . " I don't care about that , Lexi . If you want to keep him by your side , you should make him fall for you hard . Harder than how he fell for me . I don't want any more connection with you because I'm happy with my life now ." Lexi was about to grab me when security came . She angrily looked at me and I stared at her blankly . My mind was bothered by the diary but I'm so done believing his words . Pierce's feelings are so chaotic . I don't wanna believe him anymore . " Are you okay , ma'am ? " I looked at my employees and smiled at them . " Please clean the mess and calculate the damage . " " I should follow her for the charges- " " No need , " I cut one of my employees off . " Ma'am ? " " I'll take care of the damage . Can you just please arrange another bouquet ? Our client will pick it up by 6PM . 14:45 Wed , Sep 3 Chapter 46 We don't wanna disappoint our client , right ? I'll just rest for a bit in my office ." " Yes , ma'am . I'll bring you snacks in a minute ." I smiled and nodded , " Thanks . " 55 vouchers I massaged my temple as I went to my office and sat on my chair . I thought this day would be calm and peaceful like the usual but Lexi just had to ruin my mood and my business . It was already when I decided to go home . Ana texted me that she's just gonna meet her mother in the mall and reminded me that she already cooked my dinner . It was a good decision to bring Ana with me . At least , I have someone to do the house chores while I'm at work . I picked an apartment as my rental home . My unit was on the second floor and I slowed down as soon as I reached my apartment . Sitting on my doorstep , with messy hair , messy polo , and a bottle of liquor in his hands , was Pierce , looking so miserable and lonely . My heart started beating like crazy as soon as he lifted his face and our eyes met . His confession in his diary visited my mind again and it made me still . I couldn't move in front of him . He was sitting on the floor while looking up at me and I was frozen on my place , looking down at him . 99 To my shock , tears rolled down his cheeks as he kneeled and held my hands .
