My Last Wedding Chance
Chapter 6 The Foreign Man
I started putting the Men's order data into the Customer list on the laptop.
"Sorry sir, what is this booking on behalf of ?"
"Mr Liam Seymour" the man replied briefly
I felt the name was like a stranger, when typing the name of the man, I had time to think whether the Seymour in question was the Owner of the Seymour Group. One of his subsidiaries is Seymour Group Architecture where Anton works.
"Sir, this is a greeting card, you can write something here" while giving a red greeting card patterned with a gold line and a black ballpoint pen
The man immediately picked it up and took it out of the shop. I saw in front of the shop, there was a very luxurious black car parked neatly.
Very curious, I tried to look at the man who was walking towards the car. The man was standing right on the rear windshield, bowing his body and giving the greeting card and ballpoint pen to the car.
It turns out he's not alone, there's someone inside.
He faithfully waited beside the car, until the person in the car finished writing and giving back his greeting card. I couldn't see clearly the face of the man in the car, he just opened some of the windshield.
Then the well-dressed man went back into the store and handed over the finished greeting card written by the man in the car.
"this lady, please come on time, Mr. Liam is very unhappy with people who are late" the man said as he put down his greeting card and ballpoint pen
Then he passed away, walking quickly towards the luxury car.
I didn't have time to say thank you, he quickly turned his body and went rushing towards the car. I noticed he seemed to be a man from the man in the car.
Immediately I headed to the flower storage room, every flower I sold always noticed its freshness, he said, I keep the room temperature so that the flowers bloom beautifully and fresh when they will be assembled and given to all my customers.
I saw Beatrix was still busy tidying up the flowers in the storage room, she put aside every flower that had started to wilt and took care of the other flowers.
"Beatrix, there are 3 orders that I have to finish today, I'll close the store tonight, you can go home first. Because there is a flower order that I have to take to the Hampton Hotel" I told Beatrix who was still cool to clean the withered flowers that had been set aside
"Okay mom, oh yes baby breath and our Yellow Lily are up, you should order it back" he replied by giving a small note containing a list of types of flowers that have been thinned stock in the storage room
"Thank you Beatrix, and don't forget to prepare 10 red roses, 20 white roses, 15 chrysanthemums, I'll tell you the rest"
The Nami Florist Shop
At 7 pm
Finally I finished 2 flower arrangements of my customer's order today, I am grateful 2 orders have been delivered on time by Beatrix.
I'm still busy and focused on finishing the last order the man asked for this morning. I was very slow to do this bouquet because I had to wait for the flower stock that was delivered by the gardener. Mr. Tom is the owner of the flower garden that has become my subscription, every week he comes to deliver my flower order to the Shop.
The flowers offered by Mr. Tom from his garden are indeed very beautiful and fresh.
"waaaaah, what a beautiful bouquet of flowers that you put together, your customers will love it, it must be very lucky that someone who received it, if I were given flowers like this, I would immediately melt with the man" praise Beatrix who looks amazed by my work
"Beatrix, you can go home first, let me close the store, I know you can't wait to see your girlfriend, can you ?" connect me while teasing her who was standing watching me finish the flower bouquet
"Mom was always like that, I was with Jonah just a friend, he was always after me, I liked Christian, but Jonah always came to pick me up" Beatrix replied with a funny pouting face while putting on her coat and looking outwards, as if making sure Jonah never picked her up again
Beatrix is like my little sister, she's the same age as my little brother Takeru. They were once a school even though they were never close friends. He had long liked a man named Christian his neighbor, but the one who chased him was Jonah the son of the owner of the Bread Shop across the street.
Beatrix is very cute and adorable for a girl her age.
"Mom I go home first yes, see you tomorrow" he waved his hand as he walked towards the Shop door, it turns out Jonah had come to pick up waiting outside while smiling to welcome Beatrix who looks sullen
I hurried to tidy up the still messy table after finishing some flower arrangements, making sure everything was safe, turning off the lights and immediately locking the Shop.
Not long Uber Car that I had ordered came to pick me up, immediately I sat in the back seat while carefully carrying the Flower Bouquet ordered by Mr. Liam.
"Good night Miss, Hampton Hotel destination yes, please introduce me Gerald From Uber Car, Please sit as comfortable as possible and enjoy our service" a friendly greeting from the uber driver who has started the car engine
"Well Mr. Gerald" I replied with a smile on the windshield of the car
During the trip, I enjoyed the night quietly while looking around the highway behind the car window.
Many street lamps and lighting from various shops on the side of the road that adorn the City.
I took the time to send a short message to my Husband's number, to let him know if I was going home a bit late for delivering the order.
Honey, I'm sorry I came home late today because I had to deliver a Flower order to the Hampton Hotel, once my business is done I'll be home soon
The short message I sent Anton, so he wouldn't worry if he saw I wasn't home when he got home from work.
As I waited for a reply from Anton, I began to tidy up my appearance which I had not noticed since all day.
I'm just wearing a white wool cardigan with a knee-length lime dress and plain black flatshoes to me look not too bad. I tried to roll a little of my long hair back to make it look neater, arranging a little bit of both bangs next to the temples of my eyes.
Before long, my eyes turned towards the bouquet of flowers beside me that belonged to the man she said was named Liam Seymour, and I was very curious about the writing on the greeting card.
