Alpha 337
I blinked a couple of times after reading the card. I did not know who could write such things.
"Who sent it?" Liana asked as she walked towards me.
"I don''t know," I mumbled, staring at the roses.
The young man looked unfamiliar to me. I did not even get the chance to ask him who sent the flowers to me. Max was also not in the pack.
"Based on how he was bowing to you, I believe it is from Alpha."
Liana''s words caused me to pause. I turned to her and asked,
"Do you really think so?"
"Yeah."
Everyone was aware of what Adrian had done to his girlfriend. Liana knew I was his ex-wife. So she assumed it could be Adrian.
My eyes darkened as I raised the bouquet to throw it in the trash can, but another small card caught my attention as it fell on the floor from inside it.
I bent down and grabbed the card to read it.
"Don''t throw it. I am the one whom you should throw, not the roses. Next time, when we meet, you can fight me. I will wait for that day."
My fingers clenched the card as I shut my eyes.
''Adrian, what kind of nonsense is this? Do you think I will forgive you if you do these kinds of things?'' I thought.
I handed the bouquet to Liana and said,
"Give all of these roses to our customers today. I don''t want it."
Liana was stunned by my statement. The other employees were shocked. I looked away from them and focused on the work when I noticed some customers entering the shop.
The entire day went well, as there were so many customers in the shop today. I made myself busy at work.
I gave others a phony smile. My mind kept going back to the bouquet whenever Liana pulled out one rose from it. It was a bouquet of more than twenty roses.
"We are leaving, Natalia."
The employees were leaving the shop. I gave them a nod as I checked the bills for today. After the employees left, I locked the cash box.
As usual, I would have to close the shop at closing time.
When I was locking the gate of the shop, I noticed the sky was cloudy.
It brought back memories of getting wet in the the rain with Max. I chuckled

moment.
I turned around and saw a man stepping out of the car.
I stepped aside as I looked at him.
"Adrian?"
He appearedposed. But his eyes seemed to be desperate.
"Natalia, it is going to rain soon. Get in my car. My driver will drop you home."
I red at him and replied,
"No, need. Why did you send that bouquet?"
"Did you throw it?" he asked with an upset look.
"No, I gave it to the customers."
Adrian appeared to be dumbfounded. But he regained hisposure and said,
"I want to talk to you about something."
"But I don''t want to."
After saying that, I started walking ahead. I spotted a cab and quickly hailed it.
I got inside the cab and was about to tell the driver to start it, but

I turned to face Adrian, who was motioning for me to open the window.
I rolled my eyes at him and said to the driver,N?velDrama.Org copyrighted ? content.
