“Wait! There’s a delivery for a Mr. Guajardo too. Can you please pass it to him?”
The courier handed another package to Flossie.
“A delivery for Halston?”
Flossie took it with a skeptical expression.
The two packages were about the same size, but Halston’s package did not have a shipping address, so it was impossible to tell who sent it.
“Whatever, it doesn’t concern me.”
She suppressed her curiosity and shifted her attention away from Halston’s delivery.
She returned to the villa with the two packages.
“Here, you have a delivery too.”
Flossie handed Halston his delivery.
“Thank you.”
He casually put the package aside without any intention of opening it, as if he already knew what was inside. Instead, his full attention was on Flossie’s package.
Flossie was eager to open the package, but when she noticed Halston watching, she felt a bit guilty. She asked, “Why are you staring at me?”
“I want to see what your delivery is.”
“That’s none of your business, you creep!”
Flossie glared at him and turned around to hide the package from his sight.
“You don’t even dare to let me see what it is? It must be something really important.”
With a smile, Halston slowly got up, walked behind Flossie, and teased, “Or maybe I still have an important place in your heart, so whatever you do – even if it’s just opening a small package – you’re concerned about how I would feel?”
“Stop being so full of yourself. I stopped caring about your feelings a long time ago.”
“Then what are you afraid of? Open it in front of me. It doesn’t contain anything illegal, right?”
Halston was both mischievous and unrelenting. “If it does, then I have even more reasons to know what’s inside. I live with you, so I don’t want it to get me into trouble.”
“Fine, fine, you win.”
Flossie could not stand him. She raised a hand and said, “If you really want to know what’s inside, then I won’t hide it from you. I just hope that you can remain calm after you see it and not fly into a rage.”
Although she was not sure how Halston felt about her, she was certain that he wanted to remarry her.
She could already imagine the scene. He was confident that she would remarry him, but she got married with another man instead, and that man was his sworn enemy! He would surely go berserk!
In order to ensure her safety, Flossie could only mentally prepare him in advance.
“Don’t worry, I have a strong heart. I’ve been through all kinds of things. You should worry about yourself instead. Your emotions are too unstable. You lack the ability to handle sudden situations.”
Halston commented unhurriedly.
“Nonsense!”
Flossie believed that her emotions were much more stable than Halston’s. She had no idea where he got his confidence from. How dare he make such arrogant remarks to her?
But it was not important. The important thing right now was to open the package!
She grabbed a fruit knife from the coffee table and cut open the package, her heart racing uncontrollably.
Inside the package was a familiar red booklet. It really was her marriage certificate!
“Is that some kind of document? It looks a bit familiar.”
Halston checked out the content of the package from behind Flossie.
“Of course it looks familiar. You had one before…”
Flossie paused and said bravely, “This is my marriage certificate. I got married again.”
The moment would come sooner or later. Rather than hiding it, she should just tell him and get it over with.
After that, whether he wanted to seek revenge or back down, she would have ways to deal with him.
“Marriage certificate?”
Halston raised his nice looking eyebrows. His reaction was not as intense as Flossie had anticipated. Instead, he said calmly, “I can’t believe you made a move that fast. I’m really curious, which man could tame a wild little cat like you?”
“Tame?!”
The term irritated Flossie. She turned back to stare at the man and said, “Halston, are women animals in your eyes? You think you should use techniques to tame a woman rather than investing your love and emotions in her?”
“Am I wrong?”
“Of course you are!”
The emotion in Flossie’s eyes turned from anger to sadness. “I guess you’ll never know what respect and love are, and you’ll never realize the true meaning of the term “husband and wife”.”
“Although my new husband can’t be considered a good person with a clean background, he feels so much more alive than you are. He understands emotions, he understands respect, and he understands love. Marrying him is the best decision I’ve ever made in my life. I can already imagine how warm and happy our family life will be. That’s something that you can never provide for me or my children.”
A criticism like that was a heavy blow to a man. It discredited his character and his dignity.
However, Halston was surprisingly calm. “Looks like you’ve found true love. Now I’m even more curious. Which man could give you true love?”
“It makes sense for you to be curious. I have no intention of hiding it from you. He’s…”
Flossie opened the marriage certificate. She was ready to come clean to Halston.
However, when she saw the wedding photo on the marriage certificate, her mind went blank!
That was because the man in the marriage certificate photo was not Mr. Q at all, but Halston Guajardo! Even the name of the husband was Halston Guajardo!
“What’s the matter? You just got married, so shouldn’t you be happy? Why do you look so pale?”
Halston crossed his arms and asked with a smile on his face.
It sounded like an inquiry, but it was more of a mockery. He was mocking Flossie’s naivety and ignorance.
“What… What did you do?”
The marriage certificate in Flossie’s hands suddenly felt as hot as lava. She quickly threw it to the floor. She was on the verge of a mental collapse.
