Chapter 1679: Do you like it?
As the man furrowed his brow, the young man suddenly remembered something and said, "But even
though the flower shop is closed, you should be able to buy flowers at those flower fields."
Seeing that this man had an impressive aura, he knew he was not lacking in money. He pointed behind
him and said, "Actually, there's one in the outskirts of town. If you go now, you can get the freshest
flowers."
The man's brow relaxed as he thanked him and drove away.
It took a while for the young couple to snap out of it after the man left.
After a moment of silence, the girl covered her face with her hands and screamed out loud. "Ah! How
can someone be so good-looking? And on top of that... he's a guy!"
Although he also thought that guy was good-looking himself, hearing his girlfriend say that made him
feel uneasy. "Not only is he good-looking but also treats his girlfriend well. Otherwise why would he
come out late at night to buy flowers..."
The girl remained silent.
As a guy yourself... is it really okay for you to be so petty?
...
Perhaps because Osvaldo wasn't there with her this time around Selena woke up earlier than usual.
She opened her eyes and didn't see any familiar faces next to her which startled her momentarily.
Selena glanced at the clock on the wall - it wasn't even six yet.
After washing up in bathroom she changed into a long white dress before heading downstairs.
The villa was unusually quiet.
Selena descended the wooden staircase, not seeing a single servant along the way. She looked
around curiously, but still couldn't find Osvaldo. Frowning slightly with worry that something might have
happened to him, she was about to go back and call him when the living room door suddenly opened
from outside.
With a slight sound in the quiet space, Selena froze and looked up just as her eyes met those of a man
standing outside the door. The early morning light shone on him as he walked in on the carpeted floor,
his black hair and eyes familiar to Selena's memory.
He wore an air of tranquility about him as he carried a large bouquet of red roses in his arms – each
petal glistening with dew drops underlining their vibrant color.
Selena blinked in surprise at this unexpected sight before her. Osvaldo's gaze fell upon her face and he
frowned slightly; perhaps due to lack of sleep from staying up all night working on something important.
"Why are you up so early?" His voice sounded hoarse.
Selena's gaze shifted towards the bouquet of flowers held tightly by Osvaldo – ninety-nine beautiful red Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.
roses carefully selected for this special occasion. Each one was stunningly vibrant and perfectly
arranged into an impressive display that took her breath away at first glance.
She turned back towards Osvaldo once more; noticing how even his usually pristine appearance had
been affected by whatever kept him busy last night: damp hair clung messily onto his forehead while
there were traces of yellow mud stains on his shoes; between cold white fingers lay faint signs of fresh
wounds still healing over time.
It was evident that these flowers were personally selected by this man, one by one. It took him the
entire night. Selena slightly widened her eyes. She carefully recalled that her relationship with Osvaldo
was stable, and there hadn't been any recent conflicts. Today wasn't a special day either. So why...
Osvaldo approached Selena step by step, quickly enveloping her entire being with his presence. He
solemnly extended the flowers in his hand towards her, a gentle smile playing on his lips, his voice
slightly husky. "Selena, these are for you."
Selena's long lashes trembled, and she looked up at the man in front of her. She sensed the
seriousness in his tone but couldn't understand the reason behind it. Selena glanced at the man, then
back at the flowers before her. After a few seconds, her snow-white cheeks started to blush.
Even a girl who claimed not to have a girlish heart would feel happy receiving flowers from her beloved
man, especially when it came as such an unexpected "surprise." Selena's cheeks turned rosy, a mix of
joy and shyness, as she accepted the bouquet of roses and asked with a smile, "Why... suddenly give
me these?"
Osvaldo had indeed given flowers to Selena before.
Although she wasn't particularly charming, as he had said, she possessed qualities that other girls
didn't have. Therefore, on special occasions, she would receive gifts and well wishes from him. But
never before had she been so surprised.
Osvaldo's deep eyes fell upon the trembling lashes of the young girl. He looked at her pure expression
of joy and suddenly found himself unable to say what he wanted to say - even though he had said it to
her before.
But back then, Selena didn't like him. When she heard him confessing his feelings to other girls, it didn't
bother her much. However, now they were engaged and Osvaldo couldn't be sure how Selena would
react if reminded of his past mistakes.
He hoped that Selena would get jealous but also feared that it might lead to undesirable consequences
if taken too far.
In the end, Osvaldo decided not to bring up Aarav's name and instead held Selena in his arms while
gently stroking her hair. "Do you like it?" he asked softly.
Selena smiled sweetly in response. "I love it."
Early in the morning, Selena received such a pleasant surprise and naturally felt overjoyed. Osvaldo
chuckled softly and devoutly kissed her forehead and eyes in the early light of day. "As long as you like
it," he said.
Because Osvaldo had not slept all night, Selena coaxed him to catch up on his sleep.
After watching Osvaldo fall asleep, Selena picked up the bouquet of red roses and went to the garden.
She pondered how to keep these flowers alive for as long as possible.
For others, this might be difficult, but Selena could probably figure out a way.
In the Turner family mansion, Callum's rose garden that he planted for Nevaeh has never withered over
so many years. To ensure that these roses stay alive, Selena even made phone calls to inquire about
temperature and water requirements for rose survival.
Leia followed behind her mistress and saw Selena smiling while looking at the flowers in her arms with
a cautious expression that changed from time to time. Leia shuddered at the thought of what would
happen if her mistress found out about Osvaldo's true intentions behind giving her those flowers; she
might throw them on the ground immediately!
Leia couldn't help but feel resentful towards Osvaldo - how could someone so good like her mistress be
deceived by such scum? Even if he knew their relationship beforehand!
The young master belongs to her mistress; whoever tries to steal him will face dire consequences!
The young girl trailed behind Selena, her eyebrows furrowed and muttering to herself as they wandered
aimlessly. Just as Selena had figured out the perfect way to cultivate roses, her phone rang.
Glancing at the caller ID, she handed the rose in her arms over to Leia. "Give it to the gardener for
safekeeping. I'll take care of it once I'm done."
Leia went off to deliver the rose while Selena answered the call.
"Hello?" she said.
The voice on the other end belonged to Ace of Hearts. "They agreed. Tonight at eight o'clock, Biantian
Winery."
