Chapter 37: Why So Angry
Chapter 37: Chapter 37: Why So Angry
Florence Fuller covered her face with her hand to block his falling kiss. Luke Gardiner was full of anger, "Others can kiss you, but I can’t."
Florence struggled, saying coldly, "Of course, I find you filthy!"
Luke gritted his teeth. He tried to control both of Florence’s hands, but unexpectedly, one slipped free, and she slapped him hard across the face.
"You hit me again!" Luke was stunned for a few seconds, and his cheek subtly throbbed with pain.
Florence pushed him, "Let go of me!"
"I’ve barely been hit since I was a child, and the few times it happened were all because of you," he was like a madman, determined to not let Florence go. She resisted, he pressed harder, and today, he was hell-bent on dealing with this woman.
"You deserved it." His grip was too strong, and Florence was in pain from his hold. She gritted her teeth and suddenly stomped hard on Luke’s foot.
Luke felt the pain, but he didn’t let go of the woman in front of him. He remembered the old man hitting him those couple of times.
The first time was when he refused to get married, and the old man used force for the first time to make him submit.
The second time was because of Florence’s divorce agreement.
That was just two times, but Florence had hit him so many times in such a short period.
"Smack!"
The other side of his cheek was in pain again. Luke was so angry he wanted to execute her on the spot, but this woman was persistently stubborn and didn’t weaken in her struggle against him.
Lily Hart came over and saw the entangled and struggling scene between Luke and Florence.
Florence was not doing too bad, just trapped between Luke’s body and the wall. In contrast, Luke’s hair was messy, and there was a noticeable slap mark on his cheek.
Oh my!
The couple’s fighting.
She was curious to keep watching the drama unfold.
But her boss needed her.
"Boss!" Lily Hart jumped out, "I’m here to take you home."
Luke turned his head and gave her a cold look. Florence struggled with her hands, "Let go of me!"
"Luke!" A voice came from afar getting closer, Edward Renfield and Daniel Knight approached, stunned to see it was Luke and his wife.
"What... what’s going on here?" Edward Renfield glanced at both Florence and Luke, "This..."
Are we still drinking or what?
"Let go!" Her wrist bone was being pulled so painfully that her tone carried a bit of harshness.
"Are you guys fighting?" Daniel Knight didn’t know Lily Hart, but seeing her standing there, he assumed she knew something.
"Probably."
"Um... peace brings wealth." Edward Renfield advised, "Luke, first let go of your wife."
Luke stared at Florence intently, refusing to let go.
Florence’s face was cold and stern, and she gritted her teeth silently.
Their gazes met, as if sparks were flying.
"If you don’t let go, don’t blame me for not being courteous!" Florence warned.
Luke laughed lightly, "With your half-baked... ah!"
Luke clutched his abdomen in pain, his nose was also hurt from the collision with her.
Edward Renfield and the others clearly saw Florence swiftly pull her head and smash it into Luke’s face, forcing him to lean back. She suddenly kneed fiercely into his abdomen, pulling away and freeing her hand.
She must have trained for that!
The two fair wrists were now full of vivid red marks.
"Hey..." Seeing that Florence seemed to want to kick him a couple of more times, Edward Renfield quickly stopped her, "Sis-in-law, sis-in-law! Don’t, don’t, don’t!"
Florence gave him a glance and turned around to leave.
Lily Hart quickly followed.
She went back to the private room to get her things, and Chloe Quinn was no longer there, presumably taken away by Zomerton.
Her phone was missing.
Things were not looking good on Luke’s side.
Edward Renfield and Daniel Knight supported him, "Do you need to go to the hospital?"
"No need!" Luke endured the pain and stood up, his eyes almost spewing fire, "I won’t let her off."
"How did you two end up arguing here out of nowhere?"
"She dared to cheat on me!" Luke was furious, "She actually dared to mess around with other men behind my back."
Daniel Knight thought for a while, "Luke, haven’t you also been with other women before? And you two didn’t have any feelings; why are you so angry?"
Luke was at a loss for words, and he was dumbfounded for a moment, unable to recover.
"Forget it, man; why bother? Eat well, play well, why care about her, let’s go; the girl hasn’t even been shooting her scenes just to find you." Edward Renfield pulled him along.
Luke pulled his hand back, "You guys go ahead, I’ll tidy up and come over."
"Alright! Remember to come."
Luke looked at himself in the mirror, his hair was messy, the slap mark on his face was made by Florence, and there was still a subtle pain in his cheek that he rubbed.
Why am I so angry!
Yeah, why am I so angry!
Luke stared at himself in the mirror, laughed to himself, and turned to leave.
The next day.
Florence went to the company in the afternoon, remembering that Chloe Quinn was flying to the U.S. tonight, so she made a call.
"Have you left yet?"
There were rustling sounds from Chloe Quinn’s side, "Not yet, just packing."
"I saw Zomerton leave to pick you up, don’t waste time."
"I won’t." Chloe added, "Did you two talk about anything?"
"No, why?"
"Nothing." Chloe breathed a sigh of relief, "By the way, your husband also went to the place we were at yesterday."
"How do you know?"
"Oh dear~ It’s been all over today with rumors about him and a popular star, didn’t you see those photos of them going in and out of a hotel?"
"I didn’t look."
Anyway, she didn’t care, Chloe was just telling her, "Alright, I’ve got to pack, talk later."
"Okay, bye."
As soon as she got out of the elevator, Lily Hart quickly approached seeing her, "Boss, boss."
"Hmm?"
"Someone’s here to bring you your phone." Lily said.
Her phone was lost last night, and Lily Lancaster had brought her a new one this morning.
"Where’s the stuff?"
"A guy brought it, seems like a newly debuted star, quite handsome, insists on giving it to you personally."
Florence recalled last night’s events.
At that time, influenced by alcohol, she was confused by that slight resemblance.
"Where is he?"
"In the lounge. And this..." Lily Hart took out a gift bag, "Delivered from the front desk downstairs, the spokesperson who came a few days ago wanted to deliver it personally to you, but didn’t see you. So they left it here instead."
Florence took out the clothing to have a look, it was a trench coat.
"Put it away for me, I’ll go get the phone."
Florence headed to the lounge.
The moment she pushed the door open, that tall back figure gave her a moment of daze.
Noticing the sound, the man turned around, and Florence’s eyes met his. Without the influence of alcohol, seeing this somewhat similar face, she still felt a little dazed.
The man’s eyebrow raised slightly, "Hello."
Florence’s gaze remained on his face; despite the resemblance, he was nowhere close to that man’s thousandth.
