His Little Flower (Felix and Flora) novel Chapter 155

Chapter 155 

“Im so sorry.” Nua whispers frantically. “I didn’t know that Dante- 

“It’s okay.” I tell her. “Come in.” 

Who is it, darlin?” Julian calls as he walks to the door, and stops short when he sees Nua. All the color drains from his 

He whispers. He takes the few steps toward her. 

“I’m so sorry, Dante.” She says in that sweet voice of hers. She’s crying. “I shouldn’t have come. I’m so sorry, I’m so sorry.” 

My heart breaks for her. We’re both just pawns in this sick confusion of his 

Nua turns around to leave, but Julian interrupts her, “Just, just come in. He says roughly. She steps in 

inside the house gingerly and I shut the door behind her. Great, just what I wanted. This couldn’t get any worse than it already is 

Nua sits down on Julian’s couch. He follows her, I follow him. 

“I just came to talk about what my father said today. I’m sorry. She gestures to me, “I didn’t know.” I don’t like this feeling. It feels like I am the third party, the outsider, not her. 

“Nua,” Julian sighs. “Its complicated.” 

She nods. I understand.” 

I clench my eyes in anger. Its not this girl’s fault. She shouldn’t understand. He’s supposed to be her goddamn fiance. 

I retreat to the kitchen. Julian notices. I don’t know if he knows I can hear them talk from here. 

“It just surprised me to see someone else here.” Nua says softly. “But I understand. It’s just that, I have been loyal to you since Papa told me I am to he married to you, Dante. But I know you don’t owe me anything like that. I’m sorry for crying and making a scene. My father keeps mistresses. You do too. It’s okay. I just didn’t know.” 

My heart breaks for her. She has never seen love around her. She has never felt love. She is only fulfilling her duty, like her mother did, and doesn’t even understand that normal relationships, normal marriages aren’t supposed to be so painful. 

Julian sighs. I can almost imagine his fingers pressing on his temple. I can see the expression on his face. “No, Nua. She’s not my mistress.” 

“Do you love her, then? Is that why you’re delaying the wedding? I understand if you do.” 

“It’s complicated, Nua.” 

I hate hearing him say her name. It rolls of his tongue perfectly. I thought it was only with mine. 

Ginevra. Ginevra. Ginevra. My name in his voice echoes through my head all day. 

“I can’t just get engaged to you within this week, Nuo. We barely know each other. We don’t love each other.” 

“A marriage like ours isn’t for love.” 

There is silence for a while. I hold my breath. 

“Did she know?” Nus asks, 

“Yes.” Julian says, You don’t have to worry. You’ll be the one I marry Ginevra is just…Cineven. She’s not important.” 

“I’m sorry Papa treated you like that today. He is very protective of me. And he thinks you are stalling because you just want our businesses 

without marrying me. I talked to him. He understands now. He’ll give us time.”

Chapter 155 

“That’s great.” 

1. c. You’re not 

“I love spending time with you, Julian. I always thought I’d get married off to some mafioso who was old and gray and violent towards me. like that. I know this is not the perfect marriage either of us would want, but I really wish to make this work with you.” 

“Me too, Nua.” I hear Julian say, “We’ll make it work. How did you get here this late in the night? Does your father know?” 

“I sneaked out.” She giggles. Its not filled with mirth. Its the kind of giggle women do when they’re around men – to pacify them about things they know they’ll get mad about. Nua is very young, but i think she has seen a lot. Its very clear to see. 

“That’s not safe, Nua. Don’t do it again.” 

Hearing him scold her like that, softly, caring, makes my heart clench. I always imagined Julian would be cold with her. After all, it was all a farce. 

But, maybe it isn’t. 

Ginevra is just… Ginevra. She’s not important. 

I sit down on the kitchen island and bury my face in my hands, listening to them talk. I filter out most of what they’re saying, my head swarming
