Chapter 16

'Ish, you. You asked me not to mention his name. But look at your behaviour. You even mentioned your sister's name you hate. You ate your words. You freak!' Karyl muttered in her heart.

--

"Speed ​​up! You're driving like a snail. If you can't drive, you better get out! Let me drive."

"Huh, you're impatient," Karyl replied.

Karyl simultaneously drove the car at high speed through the centre of London.

Not long after, the car that took them away had arrived at a towering building marked Gilbert Company.

"Wait here!"

Before Karyl could answer, Flower had gotten out of the car.

"Flow, wait!"

Unfortunately, the called one did not hear, so she kept walking.

"Deaf bastard." Karyl cursed at herself because she was alone in the car.

Now, Flower was on the floor where Darren's room was, and the security accompanied her.

"Wait here, Miss. Follow company rules! Moreover, you haven't made an appointment yet with Mr Gilbert. Not everyone can find him that easily."

"Nonsense! Get out of the way!"

"Please wait or leave the Gilbert Company right now!" The security snapped.

Flower didn't like being yelled at and humiliated. She immediately snapped back with a voice that was no less high.

"You don't know who I am, do you? I came here to meet with Mr Gilbert. Be careful if you don't want to end up regretting it!"

Flower's attitude full of arrogance made the security sick. Even so, he still behaved respectfully to the CEO's guest.

"Please, sit!" He respectfully invited Flower to wait in the waiting room.

A woman with super sexy clothes showing cleavage seemed to throw a cynical look at her.

"Who the hell is that woman? Mannerless. She hasn't made an appointment yet but insists on meeting Mr Gilbert. Eits, but why is her face familiar, huh? I think I've seen her but, where?"

The woman also seemed to roll her eyes, trying to remember where she had seen Flower. She instantly slapped her forehead as her memory centred on the iconic BM Magazine model.

"Oh My God, it's her, Ms Flower Carnabel."

"Miss, what are you thinking about? Tell Mr Gilbert quickly that Ms Flow would like to see him."

"I know what I have to do. Don't bother me! Go back to your room!" She snapped at the security.

'You a lowly man. Shame on you. Who does he think he is? How dare he set me up.' The woman was disappointed. At the same time, she immediately contacted Darren and informed him that a guest was waiting for him.

"I didn't make any appointments with anyone today."

"This time is different, sir. She is Ms Flower Carnabel."

Darren frowned. 'Flower?' He asked himself.

'Oh, I remember now. Isn't that the woman's name? Forget it.' He thought.

"Bring her in!" Darren ordered.

"Alright, sir."

The secretary approached Flower. "Please come in. Mr Gilbert has been waiting for you."

Flower's hazel eyes squirmed fiercely before rising from her seat. "Thank you." She whispered without commenting the slightest smile.

'Beautiful but arrogant! Well, she is just a famous supermodel. I'm pretty sure she's trying to offer herself up to Mr Gilbert. What a cheap model!' The woman cursed at Flower.

Darren's firm lips carved a smile finding the door to the room open by showing a beautiful woman.

"Welcome to the Gilbert Company, Ms Flow. What made you come all the way to see me? Tell me!" Darren welcomed while smiling a smirk.

Flower's hazel eyes writhed to full sharpness. "I came here to drop off your phone that was left in my apartment. Next time, never leave any traces." She replied in cynicism.

Darren's eyes were opened perfectly. He immediately grabbed his favourite phone and didn't forget to check the gallery to make sure that not a single photo of his beloved woman was missing from there.

Flower was furious because she did not like to be treated by Darren's attitude, who looked busy with his phone, "Your phone is back. I'll excuse myself."

"Wait!"

Flower's steps came to a halt combined with a fleeting glance.

"What else? Say it quickly!"

Darren's firm steps got closer, combined with a smile that was difficult to interpret.

"No need to say thank you, Mr Darren. I don't need that."

Unfortunately, it was not thank you that tickled her ears. It was precisely the sarcastic words that had been thrown at her.

Angry? Of course! Flower wanted to throw a crushing blow to every part of his handsome face

Darren' sturdy lips curled into a sinister smile as he threw a check at Flower's face. "Please write down whatever amount you want. I totally understand that a woman like you have a ruse to take advantage of-"

"ENOUGH!" Flower snapped.

"A man like you doesn't deserve to be treated well. I shouldn't have been kind enough to deliver..." Flowers paused on purpose by reaching for Darren's phone.

"I shouldn't have returned this phone to you, but..." Flower paused again with a squinted look.

Unexpectedly, Flower slammed the phone from a famous brand to the floor, causing a booming sound. The phone was no longer in shape. Its pieces seemed to be scattered on the floor.

"How dare you despicable woman, bitch!" Darren snapped until the sound of his yelling echoed throughout the room.

Flower lifted her face with a defiant look. "Don't you think that anything can be measured by this totally worthless money, Mr Darren Ewald Gilbert!"

"You've messed around me, Ms Flow."

"It was you who had messed up with me, Mr Gilbert, and a man like you deserves no favour from anyone."

Flower deliberately shot him a deadly look before walking out of the room, slamming the door behind her hard.

'How come a despicable woman like you dares to oppose me? Challenging me, Darren Ewald Gilbert.' His anger mingled with his hands clenched tightly until his knuckles turned white.

"Kenzie," he shouted.

The called one came in front of him with a bow not long after.

"Yes, sir."

"Find out who Flower Carnabel is. Her work environment, friends, best friends, family and also her past."

"Roger that, sir. I will carry out your orders immediately."

"Remember, Kenzie! The file should be on my desk this afternoon, understand?"

"Alright, sir."

"Hmm, go out."

Darren leaned his head on the back of the sofa, staring at the ceiling.

"You've messed around me, Ms Flow. Soon, we'll see that your arrogance will pay a hefty price. Even you never imagined this before."
