Marriage for Revenge
Flowers for Maura

Roberto leaned his body in his chair, he thought so much about Maura the girl he just met. After returning home from his younger brother's graduation, Roberto immediately called his personal assistant named Kevin.

Kevin was asked by Roberto to follow Dave's car carrying Maura, he was so shocked when sent a video of Maura and Dave quarrel. Roberto is so shocked to hear of Maura's marriage only to avenge Dave Abellard.

Ever since meeting Maura, her heart had been so attracted to the girl. Either out of pity or for some other reason, Roberto wants to save Maura from suffering with Dave. But he must not be rash, he must realize that the man he will face is Dave Abellard. One of the powerful in France.

He knew the consequences of meddling in other people's domestic affairs, but was it wrong if he only intended to save a girl? Especially in the video it is very clear how Dave treats Maura. Having a mother and a younger sister, he could not imagine if they were treated like Maura. Roberto denies his heart, he wants to investigate it for humanitarian reasons not other reasons.

Then he remembered with a wedding invitation from Dave, Roberto did not attend the party because he was in Colorado, to visit the project there. Roberto then opens the drawer, Dave's invitation is still there. He then opened the invitation, saying the names Dave Abellard and Maura Arielle Johnson.

"Johnson?" Roberto murmured, he felt familiar when he heard Johnson's name. Isn't the famous prosecutor in Paris Leo Johnson? Or maybe they have a relationship? Roberto had to investigate everything, he was very curious about Maura's life. His determination is getting round, to help Maura out of her suffering.

Meanwhile..

"Master, tomorrow you have a meeting with Mr. Roberto," Secretary Keenan seemed to remind his young master's schedule.

Dave leaned his back on the back of the "Cancel seat first Keen! I'm lazy to meet him."

Secretary Keenan seemed to wrinkle his forehead, he was so confused by Dave's attitude. Not usually Dave is lazy to meet with Roberto, because at the same time their relationship is very good. They even look very familiar.

"Do you have a problem with Mr Roberto?" Ask Secretary Keenan who sees Dave's grim expression.

Dave was twirling his chair, looking around once he was thinking something. "Nothing, it's just that I don't like him getting close to my wife"

"Mr Roberto is approaching Miss Maura? Where do they know each other?" Secretary Keenan still looked confused.

"Eitherway. I've seen Maura almost get hit by the car Roberto was driving. I saw Roberto deliver Maura to the apartment, and then Roberto's second one attended Maura's graduation and gave her a bucket of flowers" Dave started telling his trusted assistant.

"Are you jealous, sir?" Secretary Keenan asked straight to the point, he could so read Dave's troubled face.

"Of course not. Why am I jealous of a woman like her?" Dave answered wrongly.

"really? Would you be willing if Mr Roberto took Miss Maura out of your hands?" Ask Secretary Keenan who is trying to strengthen the argument in his heart.

Dave immediately sat up straight, he looked at Secretary Keenan with a sour face. "Of course not, she's Keen's wife!"

"Treat Miss Maura well, sir! Because a woman will move on another heart if she feels uncomfortable with a man," Secretary Keenan seems to try to give her advice, because however he wants the best for Dave and Maura's marriage.

"You're fighting with me like you're a Casanova expert!!" Dave's squeaky.

Secretary Keenan chuckles, he is not an expert on love but at least he understands the marriage of Dave and Maura. Everything needs to be fixed before it is too late.

"I'm sorry sir if I'm presumptuous! But listen! You only have two choices. If you still treat Miss Maura unkindly, it is not impossible if there is another man who seizes her heart. In addition, if Prosecutor Leo knows the master treated his beloved daughter badly like that, he will take Miss Maura out of your hands. Then the second choice, you change to treat Miss Maura well, then Miss Maura will continue to be by your side sir. Throw away your selfishness if you still expect your marriage to be whole!" Secretary Keenan gave his advice at length.

Silent for a while, Dave again leaned his back on his chair. He rubbed his face in frustration.

"Come Keen. I was just afraid that if I tried to fix this marriage, Maura betrayed my trust again. I've been pretty devastated back then, I don't want to be destroyed a second time."

"If you're afraid Miss Maura will betray your trust again, make a strong bond between you and Miss Maura!" Secretary Keenan seemed to give his idea.

"You must have a child with Miss Maura, sir! That way you have a bond with each other. That way, Miss Maura will never be separated from you."

The kid? Even Dave never thought he'd have the daughter of the girl who framed him. But if he had to lose Maura, he wouldn't. Dave seemed to pervade Secretary Keenan's words. He could not let anyone else take Maura out of his hands.

****

Not feeling the clock has shown at 5 pm, Dave immediately closed his laptop and rushed to go home.

When Dave drove his car, he passed his old flower shop when he often gave Maura gifts. Suddenly he remembered his wife. Dave stopped his car immediately, he walked to the flower shop. But when he opened the door, he thought again that he should not melt with Maura.

But Secretary Keenan's words were so ringing in his ears.

Dave immediately opened the door of the flower shop, he ordered Zinnia Flowers combined with Magnolya flowers. Maura's favorite interest, when he had gotten the interest, Dave immediately paid to the kassa area and immediately drove his car to his apartment.

Dave opened the door of the apartment that he locked from the outside, he immediately stepped into the TV room, seen Maura who was watching Spongebob Squarepants cartoon with a sleeping position on her floor mattress. Maura immediately approached Dave when she saw Dave approaching her.

"Dave, are you home?" Sapa Maura is friendly.

"Of course I'm home. If I hadn't been here, I wouldn't be here" Dave replied wryly.

"I'll just make small talk" Maura chuckled.

Dave advanced the flower bucket he held towards Maura "This is for you!"

Maura immediately picked up the flower bucket happily, it had been a long time since Dave had given her flowers. Maura held the flower, because the bucket was so big.

"Thank you, Dave. It's so beautiful!" Maura looked at the flower with a sparkling face.

"You don't trust yourself! I give this flower to you as my gratitude for yesterday you took care of me!" Dave walked away from Maura while his hands were busy removing the tie.

"Just confess! You must have fallen in love with me for the second time, huh?" Maura chased after Dave who was about to enter his room.

"Believe!"

Maura poked Dave's cheeks, a red hue popping out on the tall man's cheeks.

"If your face is like that, then the answer is right?"

"You're so chatty! Come on out of my room!" Dave pushed slowly on Maura's back, trying to get the girl out of her room.

"I'm sure you like me!!" Maura exclaimed with excitement.

Dave immediately closed the door of his room, he then held onto his thumping chest.

"Damn !! Why am I being stubborn? "
