Chapter 62
Bitter Memories Klay's POV
I was gripping my phone tightly while sitting on the bed beside Kelly who's fast asleep. I was facing her back and she's wearing sexy lingerie. Like usual, she looked so hot with that satin night dress but I'm not in the mood to make love to her tonight. I kept on thinking about what Emily must've told her for her to think about visiting her father.
Fck!
I loathe her father for killing my mom. He deserves to rot in hell but his current wife, Amanda, contacted me, saying Mr. Monroe managed to escape. I thought everything was going perfectly the way I wanted it. I thought even just one of what I planned was going smoothly. I was wrong.
It might be Emily. She knows what I've been doing and this is probably her fault. The reason why she visited Kelly is to ruin my plans that are already ruined
My affection towards Kelly changed my plans, but not all of it. I still want to torment Kelly's father for putting my mother's life into end. I still want to get back at him and make him pay for ruining my life. He used me to dethrone my biological father. So he could finally get rid of the people who have a grudge on
him.
I gritted my teeth after I received another message from Amanda about her failure. She let Kelly's father escape even when she arrogantly told me that she had him under her claws. Pathetic bitch! "Klay..."
I immediately put my phone on the bedside table and looked at Kelly. She yawned and rubbed her eyes as she moved towards my direction.
My anger immediately melted after I felt her warm and soft palms caressing my thigh.
"Why are you still awake?"
I lay beside her and pulled her closer to me. She immediately wrapped her arm around my waist and I hugged her while gently planting a soft kiss on her hair
"Go back to sleep," I whispered against her ear.
You shouldn't learn about what I've been planning the whole time, Kelly. You'll surely hate me and having you hate me will punish me and kill me every single day. I can't live without you now. "Klay..." she whispered again while groaning, obviously sleepy.
I hugged her tighter as she nuzzled her nose in my neck. The sweet scent of her made me squeeze my eyes closed.
This woman is mine now. I will not let Pierce Anderson have her again. Even if I have to sell my soul to the devil, I will definitely not allow anyone to steal her away from me.
"Go back to sleep. We still have to work tomorrow," I whispered back even when I know I won't be able to focus on the company tomorrow.
I know Mr. Monroe will do everything to go back and take his daughter away from me. I know that he will do everything in his power to manipulate me again. However, I'm not the same boy he can play with. I changed and he did this to me.
The next day, after sending Kelly to work, I went straight to Emily's condo to confront her about what she talked about with Kelly. I really have a hunch that she mentioned Kelly's father. That bitch needs to learn.

her lesson. Not because she's a daughter of another mafia doesn't mean she can backstab me like this. She's gonna pay if she was the one who caused this mess between me and Kelly.
"What did you say?" I sharply asked the maid who opened the door of Emily's condo unit.
"I'm sorry, sir. Miss Emily went out of the country."
I clenched my jaws and balled my fists. Fck!
"Damn it!" I cursed out loud, scaring the old maid.
I left the condo tower swearing Emily inside my head. She escaped because she knew that I won't let this slide.
I couldn't help but laugh sarcastically.
You'll pay for this, Emily.

"Are you okay, ma'am? You look so worried."
I looked at Yara and shook my head, "It's nothing."
"Okay. By the way, we have a VIP client coming today, she giggled. "She's a big catch. I heard she's the wife of one of the successful businessmen in our country."

"Oh! What time will she come? I should retouch, then. She might be ordering flowers for an event." "That's for sure, ma'am. I heard her only son is getting married soon."

The door chime created a noise, interrupting my conversation with Yara. When I looked at the person who entered, my lips parted in shock.
Standing by the doorframe of my flower shop, a woman in elegant dress and gold accessories was standing and looking straight into my eyes. I suddenly remembered how sweet she was to me before suddenly remembered the bond we shared but all of those became bitter lies when she told me to get out of her son's life and forget about him.
"She's our VIP client, ma'am," Yara said boastfully.
I took a deep breath and stared into Mrs. Anderson's eyes again. Something about her changed. Was it the gentleness in her eyes? No! I must be hallucinating.
