NovelEnglishChapter 237:
The vivid red of the roses highlighted her fair skin, casting her in an even more graceful light.
A flicker of surprise crossed his face.
The flowers... truly suited her.
In the past three years, he had followed his grandfather's instructions for flower-giving. He had always arranged
and picked the bouquets from his grandfather's garden himself.
He had never given her such exquisite roses before.
At that moment, an urge surged within him to embrace her.
“Here are your flowers, miss.”
After Kristopher completed the payment, the florist handed over a lavish bouquet of bright red roses to Belinda
with enthusiasm. “Your boyfriend is so good-looking and clearly adores you!”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtBelinda’s face soured at the mention of “boyfriend,” and she quickly corrected, “He’s not my boyfriend.”
“Oh, then he must be your husband?” the florist ventured, her curiosity piqued.
The shop was unusually quiet, perhaps prompting the florist to engage more than usual. “I've been here for
years, watching young couples. They're all honey and roses before they marry—buying flowers every week.
Once they're married, though, they vanish. It's as if marriage marks the end of their need to show affection... It's
unusual these days to find a couple like you, keeping the love and ceremony alive even after marriage!”
Belinda grew increasingly irritated by the florist’s rambling. “We're divorced,” she interjected sharply.
Approaching Kristopher, she handed him the roses brusquely. “These are for his new partner. I'm just helping
out.”
With those words, she spun on her heel and strode toward the exit.

The florist, taken aback, watched in stunned silence. Kristopher, noting her surprise, offered an apologetic frown
before taking the roses and leaving the shop.
The florist was left gaping.
In her many years in the business, she had never witnessed such a revelation...
Unable to resist the urge, she pulled out her phone and stealthily took a photo of the two departing, quickly
sharing it on social media with a caption. “Ex-wife and ex-husband shopping for flowers for his current love... My
brain just can’t wrap around this—what'’s the relationship here?”
“Belinda.”
As he sat in the passenger seat, Kristopher buckled his seatbelt and said in a casual tone, “The florist was just
being nice. There was no need to tell her all that.”
Belinda held the steering wheel firmly, her gaze fixed straight ahead. “I don’t appreciate being misunderstood.”
Kristopher let out a scornful laugh. “Yet, you didn’t seem to mind when you were misinterpreted with your senior
or that college student.” Why was it that when it was her being mistaken for being with him, she felt compelled
to clarify?
Why was she so averse to being linked with him?
Belinda’s expression turned sour. “You're different from them.”
“And why is that?”
