Chapter 34 – A Second Chance with My Billionaire Love

Filed To Story: A Second Chance with My Billionaire Love

“If you refuse, I will expose your identity as ‘Phoenix’. which will cause him to come and exert vengeance on you.”

“Are you threatening me?”

He didn’t answer her. Instead, he gave her a card. “I’ll give you three days to think about it. Call me anytime you change your mind.”

Flossie didn’t take Haze’s threat seriously, and she threw the card away. She didn’t care if he exposed her. After all, she saved Halston’s life. She hoped Halston wouldn’t be cruel to her just because of a little prank.

However, she was curious about the problem Haze said about the Guajardo family.

‘Is that why Halston keeps getting targeted? Who would be bold enough to attack the Guajardo family of Beach City publicly?’ she thought to herself.

At first, she wanted to ask Liam to check it out, but she felt it was unnecessary, seeing as she and Halston were about to get a divorce soon.

She put the thoughts back in her mind and decided to care for herself first. It was a pointless venture anyway, as she had never gotten any gratitude from the Guajardo family in the past four years despite all the sacrifices she had made for them.

Seeing as the weather was great today and she hadn’t gone out to shop in a while, she called Leia. The two decided to meet at three in the afternoon in Paragon Plaza.

Thinking about how her babies were almost two months old, she initially went from feeling they were a burden to slowly looking forward to meeting them.

“Bestie!” Leia called out, looking stunning as she waved at Flossie from afar.

As Liam’s twin sister, she got the same love from Geronimo and was pampered her entire life. As a result, she exuded confidence and radiated force. Only in front of Flossie that she would act silly hence the nickname ‘brainless beauty’.

“Flossie, you finally remembered me! I miss you so much. Let me see your injury.”

After Leia gave her a big hug, she began examining her wound. Only when she was sure Flossie was okay did she start to complain. “My brother is too overbearing! He doesn’t let me visit you because he said I’d bother you. I think he just wants you all to himself! He should at least look in the mirror before thinking he deserves you. Doesn’t he know that you belong to me?”

At the mention of this, she hugged Flossie in her arms and kissed her furiously on the cheek.

Flossie couldn’t help but laugh at the other woman’s actions. “Okay. Don’t be disgusting. Let’s go shopping.”

“Sure. Where do you want to go? LV or Chanel? I don’t think the mall has Hermes. That’s why it feels like it’s missing something.”

Leia was born rich. All her clothes were luxurious brands. She rarely goes to a mall, but if she did, she would go to branded shops.

“Let’s just window-shop a little.”

Although that was what Flossie said, she pulled Leia straight to the fourth floor. The fourth floor was full of baby products. Parents could be seen there with their children.

Flossie’s eyes glistened with excitement when she saw the baby’s clothes and instantly went up to touch them.

“Wow. This pink dress is so cute. The material is so soft!”

“And this overall is so adorable too!”

“This pair of shoes is so small, so adorable!”

Leia stood outside the shop and was stunned to see Flossie so excited.

‘What’s going on?’

If she remembered correctly, Flossie seemed to dislike children but now…

‘Something’s not right!’ Leia thought to herself.

Flossie got more excited as she walked inside the shop. She loved every single thing there and had a strong urge to buy the whole floor.

She saw a doll in the center of the shop and was about to take it for a closer look when someone snatched it away.

It was none other than Jessanna.

“Miss Ellsworth?”

Jessanna was shocked, but she acted innocent.

At the same time, her future mother-in-law, Francine, saw Flossie and shouted, “Flossie, why are you here? Did you follow Jessanna and me?”

“Miss Ellsworth, why are you here at a baby store? Are you pregnant as well?”

Jessanna purposefully exposed her belly. She seemed innocent, but her voice and actions were filled with provocative intent.

Francine snorted and sized Flossie from head to toe before mockingly saying, “Halston won’t even touch her, so how can she be pregnant? She’s just a waste of our money.”

Francine’s words were so cruel that Flossie instantly clenched her fist when she heard them. Just as she was about to say something, Leia stepped forward and insulted Francine.

“Hahaha! You’re not that capable, either. One of your sons died, and the other had an affair. If I were you, I would reflect on why my sons are useless. Aren’t you afraid your grandchildren will get karma because of your nasty remarks?”

Before Flossie had a divorce, Leia kept quiet and didn’t interfere in their family matter. But now that Flossie was getting a divorce, she wouldn’t stay silent anymore.

Francine was furious when she heard that, and she turned pale with anger as she pointed a finger at Leia. “You…”

When Jessanna saw this, she felt that this was an opportunity for her to get on Francine’s good side. She instantly stood. between Francine and Leia, then acted like a pitiful victim as she said, “Miss Osborne, you can’t say that to your elder. Even if you’re not satisfied, you can’t be unreasonable.”

Leia felt rage course through her at Jessanna’s words.

She didn’t want to be aggressive before this but couldn’t hold it anymore. She grabbed Jessanna and hit her across the face.

Slap!

A crisp noise rang out clearly, causing Jessanna and Francine to be stunned instantly. Francine hadn’t thought that a softie like Flossie would have such a fierce friend that was not one to mess with.

She looked at Flossie and demanded, “Why are you standing there? Tell your friend to apologize now, or else I won’t drop this matter so easily!”

Flossie stood where she was and calmly said, “You should apologize instead. I am afraid her face might be too thick from how shameless she is that it hurt my friend’s hand.”

“What?!”

When Francine realized that Flossie didn’t care, she decided to take matters into her own hands.

She raised her hand, intending to slap Leia, but Flossie grabbed her wrist instantly and coldly said, “Miss Francine, it’s bad to sneak up on someone else.”

Francine was stunned to see the sharp look in Flossie’s eyes, as it was the complete opposite of how Flossie used to be.

Suddenly, Jessanna sat on the floor with a thud and screamed, “Oh, my stomach!”

“What are you doing?” Halston appeared, and his handsome face was dark as he asked solemnly.

When Francine saw Halston, she became even more arrogant.

“Halston, you’re finally here. If you didn’t come in time, Flossie and her violent friend were about to beat us up! You have to teach these two a lesson today!”

Halston didn’t care about Francine but rushed to help Jessanna and asked, “Are you okay? Do you need to see the doctor?”

Jessanna had pretended to be hurt, so naturally, she didn’t need or want to go to the hospital. She said weakly, “I’m fine. It’s just that I got slapped, but it didn’t hurt my stomach. I’ll be fine after some rest.”

When Halston saw the mark on her face, his cold face grew even more frigid.

He stared coldly at Flossie and asked with a hint of steel in his voice. “Shouldn’t you explain what’s going on?”

Thinking that an explanation was unnecessary, Flossie returned the man’s cold stare with a calm one and said, “She was slapped. There’s more to say about it.”

It didn’t matter if he considered her unreasonable or disgraceful. There was nothing to explain, and it wasn’t necessary.

Everything about the Guajardos was nothing important to her from the moment she decided to divorce Halston.

What’s more, it was just a mistress and a shrew. (D)

Francine, with a shaking voice and an arrogant look, said, “Look, she admitted it. What are you still standing here for, son? Make her get down on her knees and beg for forgiveness!”

Having stood by the side watching, Leia started to get irritated again and shouted, “Fuck your forgiveness! I wouldn’t have slapped her if your mother and this bitch didn’t call Flossie a parasite and a barren!”
