Don’t Fall In Love With Me Mr. Ceo - Chapter 43
The next day.
William was feeling refreshed he went out and drove his car.
As he was busy the last couple of days, he was not able to visit or call Mia. Worried that they might drift apart because of what happened, he decided to talk with her face to face.
While he was driving, he saw a store with fresh flowers on the window pane, he decided to stop and buy some flowers for Mia.
Looking around the flower shop, he wondered what was the best selection of flowers he could give Mia.
The florist saw the handsome man that stepped out of his expensive car, he had long legs that can go for days that models would kill to have, his face was handsome that even angels might sing praises of. The florist could only look with infatuation, as the handsome rich man was looking around in the flower shop. In her mind, she was thinking that the flowers were for his mother or grandparents.
With a new added vigor, the florist gave her most charming smile, sashayed towards William and spoke, “Hello sir. Can I help you with anything? “She said while blinking her eyes like a pair of emergency car lights that can give one a seizure.
William did not even look at the florist that approached him as he spoke in a calm and cold manner. “I want flowers for my lover.”
The woman’s face suddenly crumpled as she heard William’s statement. She appeared like a deflated balloon as she monotonously explained some of the flowers. “We have here the most common flowers given to their love ones.” She approached one of the counters with a wide array of flowers arranged in barrels and pots, like Peonies, Ranunculus, Roses, Daises, Tulips, Lilies, etc.
“These are beautiful,” William said while looking at the Tulips.
The florist replied, with her deadpan face and robotic voice. “Tulips stand for perfect love. They convey comfort and warmth. ”
“I’ll take a bouquet of Tulips,” William said while still looking at them.
On the other hand, the florist thought of a way to benefit from this situation.
The florist pointed to one of the flowers and said “Sir, these Casa Blanca Lilies are also a good addition to your bouquet. These lilies stand for beauty, class and style.” The florist was looking at William’s expression that did not change so she added. “It also shows that you are sophisticated and know your partner well.”
Once William heard this, he decided to add it to his bouquet.” Add those to the bouquet too.”
The florist smiled at herself while thinking. “You look rich, better add the more expensive flowers in his bouquet.”
The florist added, “You should also add some irises in your bouquet.” She pointed at one side of the shop and continued, “You know, these stands for faith and hope. It’s always nice to have that for a long and lasting relationship.” The florist continued with her sales pitch as William added more and more to his bouquet, in the end, he ended with a big ass bouquet of flowers.
The florist was happy with her sale as she watched the young man carry the bouquet of expensive flowers out of the shop. “That woman better appreciate that bouquet of flowers.” She said full of envy.
While William placed the flowers at the back of his car, a few streets away from the flower shop was a specialty shop gift store. He stopped for a bit and picked a couple of items for a gift basket for Mia’s parents.
It was past lunch when he finished with his shopping, he went directly for Mia’s house with a happy smile on his face, thinking of Mia’s expression once she saw the flowers.
Stopping in front of Mia’s house, he carefully picked up the bouquet of flowers and the gift basket. Once he reached the door, he put the gift basket on the step to knock on the door.
Sfx*knock knock knock*
“Coming,” Mrs. Hill opened the door and to her surprise a bouquet of flowers was covering the upper body part of a person while holding the flowers, “Did someone die, is this a funeral flower for someone?” She thought to herself.
“Who is it?” Mrs. Hill decided to ask to get it over with, she could not see the person behind the flowers, so it was better to ask, she thought.
A person suddenly peaked from behind the flowers, to Mrs. Hill’s surprise, there was the familiar face of William with his charming smile. His face was dazzling as the ray of light bounced off his pearly white teeth as if blinding Mrs. Hill’s eyes.
“Hi Aunty, I came to visit,” William said happily while grabbing the gift basket that he put down the floor.
“Come in, come in.” Mrs. Hill hurriedly said as she helped William pick up the gift basket from the floor.
William was looking around the house while looking for Mia. Mia was the kind of person who did not like to go out of the house if it wasn’t necessary, so he was a bit surprised to not find Mia.
“Aunty, where is Mia?” William asked.
Surprised with what William said, Mrs. Hill replied. “Oh, didn’t Mia tell you? She started working at the pet shop two days ago. You know, when the owner of the shop heard about her losing her job, he offered her a job.”
William stood there, frozen, as he realized that the person Mia was working for is his rival in love.
