Happy reading!
After a moment of silence and thinking about what answer to say, Lucas finally answered after Flora repeated her question again. "Obviously I love her because she's my son's future mother." The man looked back at Flora's face which instantly sharpened the look of his eyes full of anger.
"You're lying, Lucas! Obviously you don't love her and you marry that woman just because of the child in her womb. Even you forced Zoya to marry you and deliberately threatened her. Anyway this afternoon I saw with my own eyes how the condition of Zoya's face that was battered because of your actions. Be honest with me, Luc! You don't love her, do you?" flora asks, unable to accept Lucas's answer to love Zoya. He felt sure that Lucas was lying to him and said it was not in accordance with his heart.
Flora's words that seemed to urge him made Lucas feel annoyed. The jaw of his face instantly hardened with the glare of eyes so sharp that looking at Flora's face no longer showed kindness. Yes, it is a facial thing because Lucas does not like to be pressed by anyone, even Edward though he will be fought by him, let alone Flora, especially, the woman who had made her life complicated because she was betrothed to him. "I've explained my relationship with Zoya to you, whether you believe it or not! Anyway just so you know, Zoya's face bruised not because of my actions, but because of her own carelessness. I left her at the apartment looking for medicine at the pharmacy. So you better not just accuse me without proof!" lucas replied, his voice starting to sound cold.
Flora laughed at the answer. He felt he could not bear to convey something to Lucas who showed that he was not a fool who was easily deceived.
"Lucas, I'm not Zoya you can fool. You'd better stop playing in front of me and break your wedding plans with that woman. Marry me and I will try to have a child conceived by Zoya after the baby is born so that she can stay with us!"
"Don't brag you, Flo!"
Lucas is surprised to find that Flora really knows her big secret. "Where do you know about it?"
"You forgot who I am? Although you've been working with the media covering the fire news at that time to eliminate all the truth about the cause of the fire, but I can easily find out what really happened. Even I know you're the culprit who burned down Zoya's flower shop!" flora replied firmly conveying what she knew about Zoya.
Lucas' body stiffened instantly, his breathing was so choked because his big secret was known to Flora. Yes, even though he had covered it as neatly as possible, but still Flora managed to find out. The thing that happened at this moment was so unexpected.
"Damn! Flora is really holding my US card! I can't let him go free because it would be very dangerous, it could be that Flora will convey this to Mommy and Daddy to cancel my marriage with Zoya and do not rule out the possibility that she will also pass this secret on to Zoya. Nah! I can't let all that happen" Lucas' inner self, unable to cover up his current anxiety, begins to think about doing something to keep Flora quiet until she is successfully married to Zoya.
