I'll Teach You, Marianne.

Chapter 122 - Seeing

It had been two days since Paul worked at Anne's flower shop. Since Paul got a motorbike from Jack, he became more and more enthusiastic about working. At first, Linda, who doubted Paul, now praised him for having high spirits. He was like a tireless robot. After moving the heavy flower vases every morning, he would clean the shop windows with gusto. When he cleverly finished the job that Linda used to do, he was ready to send the orders that Anne had already prepared.

"I suspect that he has a battery in his body, Anne," Linda whispered softly, commenting on Jack, who was putting two bouquets of flowers into a special box he made on his motorbike.

"That's nonsense, Linda, you watch too many films about robots," said Anne softly with a sweet smile on her beautiful face at Linda's words.

"Seriously, Anne. Just look at him. He seems tireless and always has full energy," Linda said softly as she glanced at the alarm clock on the counter.

"Look, it's almost five in the afternoon, but he's still in high spirit like that. His energy really doesn't run out," added Linda, adding to her previous words.

Anne just chuckled at Linda's absurd words. She then went back to continue her work. Every weekend like this, there would be more flower orders than on weekdays and she was grateful for that. The money she got from the sale of flowers for almost two weeks of opening the shop was even close to her initial capital when ordering flowers from Mrs. Mary and Anne was grateful for that.

Seeing Anne was busy working, Linda finally resumed her work. When she was going to tidy up the trash that was left over from the flower arrangements, a couple suddenly walked into the shop. The two of them were seen fighting and the man tried to calm the woman by taking her to the flower shop in the hope that her anger would subside. Hearing their argument made Anne and Linda immediately fell silent. They both seemed to be watching live action from Korean dramas that they often watched when there were no customers.

"I hate you, you liar," said the female customer sulking.

"Sorry my love, I'm sorry. I promise I will not repeat the mistakes I did today," replied the partner of the female customer quickly.

"Ah! You kept saying that over and over again, yet you never kept your promise. I'm tired of hearing your fake promises," said the female customer again, as her anger raised.

"I'm serious, Dear, I won't repeat it again. I won't ignore you anymore because of the game," said the man softly, begging his girlfriend to believe in the promise he had said before.

Seeing the two lovebirds' fight gave Anne a sudden headache. She then ordered Linda to serve them both, so they would get out of the shop immediately. At first, Linda refused Anne's orders, but because Anne threatened not to help her with Professor Gilbert's assignment, Linda finally approached the lovers. She tried to remain professional by putting a friendly smile on her face, even though she was actually very annoyed. Meanwhile, from behind the cashier, Anne could only smile sadly seeing Linda was being ignored by the fighting lovers. Because she couldn't bear to see Linda being ignored by her two customers, Anne finally decided to approach Linda and saved her from Romeo and Juliet who were fighting.

When Anne just came out of the cash register, suddenly the woman ran out of the flower shop and the man was about to chase her, but Linda managed to hold him back.

"You better bring flowers while chasing your lover," said Linda quickly.

"Flowers?" asked the man anxiously. He was afraid that his lover would have gone too far for him to chase.

"Yes, when a woman is angry, you must seduce her with flowers. Don't you know that?" Linda asked back.

Hearing Linda's words made the man pause for a while. Soon, he took out 20 pound note and gave it to Linda. As soon as Linda held the money, she immediately grabbed a bouquet containing five luxurious roses.

"Take this and tell your lover that she is as beautiful as these roses," said Linda softly with a smile.

"Is that so?" asked the male customer back.

"Yes," said Linda quickly.

Without speaking, the male customer then grabbed the bouquet of roses in Linda's hand, then immediately ran out of the shop while saying thank you. He ran after his lover who had gone quite far from Anne's flower shop.

Anne immediately knelt down while holding her chest when the lovers left the flower shop. She looked very relieved when the the couple left her shop.

"Isn't it exciting, Anne," said Linda softly teasing Anne.

"What do you mean exciting? Seeing people fight like that makes me uncomfortable Linda," replied Anne quickly.

Linda laughed at Anne's answer. Then she walked to the counter while wagging the 20 pound note. Anne just shook her head at what Linda was doing. She slowly got up from the floor and walked out of the shop to get some fresh air. After seeing Romeo and Juliet's bickering in the shop making Anne felt like she lacked oxygen. She walked out of the shop and enjoyed the breeze that blew in the afternoon while lifting her face upward with her eyes closed.

Thump!

Anne immediately opened her eyes quickly when she suddenly remembered the incident when Aaron asked her to marry him a few years ago.

"What happened to me? Why do I suddenly remember that incident ...?"

"What happened, Anne?" asked Aaron, who suddenly appeared and startled Anne.

"Oh my Jesus… O Lord, Aaron, can't you not startle me like this?!" screamed Anne loudly, clutching her chest.

"I've actually been calling you since I got out of the car, Anne. But you just kept quiet and stared at the sky. That's why I immediately walked over to you. And when you said you suddenly remembered that incident, I asked you what incident that you remember, Anne?" said Aaron at length, trying to explain to Anne.

"I-I don't remember anything Aaron, I -- don't discuss it again. Oh right, what's that you bring?" said Anne softly, trying to change the conversation by asking about the item Aaron was carrying.

"Oh, this, I bought this when I drove Daniel to Northampton." Aaron held up a bag from one of the most delicious cake brands in London.

"Northampton? Why did Daniel have to go there?" asked Anne curiously.

"Office affairs, I ordered him to replace me," Aaron replied with a smile.

"Replace you? Why did he have to replace you?" asked Anne again.

Aaron smiled when he heard Anne's question. He slowly lowered his head and approached Anne and whispered softly, "Because I don't want to leave London, I don't want to leave you, Anne."

When Aaron said that, a black car passed around the shop on the street. The passenger who sat in the back seat could clearly see what Aaron was doing to Anne from inside his car.

"Marianne," the passenger hissed softly. His eyes reddened with burning jealousy.
