Chapter 288 He Made Up The Story
The roses which were worth 200 dollars per bouquet were sold at a price of 20 dollars per bouquet by Eliza.
Coupled with the reporters' live streaming, there was suddenly a long queue of people in front of the entrance of Wushu Pavilion, grabbing for the roses.
Alan, who was cleaning, came to Eliza. "Miss Wood, we are at too much of a loss!"
"I've checked on the Internet. These roses are all freshly picked and they're worth a lot. We only sold them for 20 dollars per bouquet. Isn't that too much of a loss?!"
Eliza crossed her legs and handed over the flower as she counted. "How can this be called a loss?"
"Did I buy these flowers?"
Alan shook her head. "No."
"Did I pay for them?"
Alan shook her head again. "No."
"That's why."
Eliza quickly pasted the QR code on the advertising sign on the side and continued to sell it while smiling. "Since I didn't spend a penny, then no matter how much it costs, I'm still making a profit, am I right?"
Alan was stunned. She suddenly realized that she could not refute Eliza's logic.
She pursed her lips. "Miss Wood, although this is the truth..."
"Just take it as a contribution to society."
Eliza was too lazy to explain further to Alan. She directly smiled and said, "Go and set up another stall so that we can sell them off earlier."
"I'll raise your salary this month."
Alan paused, wanting to say something, but in the end, she still said nothing.
She sighed and walked to the opposite side of Eliza. She set up another stall to sell roses again.
Having two stalls indeed sped up the progress.
In less than two hours, the roses of the truck were all sold out.
They were only left with one last bouquet, Alan was a little reluctant to sell it off. "Miss Wood, please keep this bouquet for commemoration."
Eliza glanced at the large bouquet of beautiful red roses. "Or..."
"Forget it."
She saw a man coming this way in the distance. Without even looking at him, she stuffed the bunch of roses directly into the man's arms. "20 dollars, electric payment or cash?"
There was a faint smile in the man's low voice. "How about installment?"
Eliza frowned. "Installment for 20 dollars?"
When she looked up, her eyes met Beau's smiling eyes.
She was stunned. "Why are you here?"
"I've been here for a long time."
Beau did not answer her question, but directly put the bouquet of roses into Eliza's arms. "Miss Wood really made a big fortune from the roses I bought for you."
Eliza pursed her lips and rolled her eyes at him. "Don't you know how to ask a girl what she likes before going after her, Mr. Valentine?"
"I don't like roses."
"Of course I know."
Beau smiled and turned back to give a signal.
Behind him, Braint, in a black suit, walked out of the car with a large bouquet of white lilies.
The little fellow was dressed in a suit, as handsome as his daddy, Beau.
The big bouquet of lilies in his arms was even taller than him.
However, he carried them steadily, his footsteps were stable as he walked towards Eliza step by step.
The scene in front of her made Eliza's eyes open wide.
She had not seen Braint for a long time.
He was a little taller and thinner than before.
The little fellow, who had been precocious, looked more mature at the moment.
Like a prince, he carried the bouquet of lilies and slowly walked up to Eliza.
Braint blinked and raised the bunch of flowers with a smile. "Miss Wood, this is for you. Please accept it."
The scars and birthmarks on Eliza's face couldn't conceal the joy in her heart anymore.
She strode over excitedly and...
She picked up Braint who was holding the bouquet of lily flowers.
She even directly kissed his face. "How can you be so cute!"
The little gentleman holding the bouquet did not expect his mommy to be so generous. She had changed her identity, but she still directly picked him up as soon as they met.
He was a little flustered. "Erm... Miss Wood."
"I'm a man who only knows how to be handsome and not cute. Please mind your language."
After that, he took a deep breath. "And it's..."
"It's not good for you to pick me up the first time we meet, isn't it?"
His words "Miss Wood" pulled Eliza's thoughts back to reality.
When she came to herself, she remembered that her current identity in the outside world was not Braint's mother, Eliza, but Miss Wood, who met the little fellow for the first time.
She coughed softly and looked around subconsciously. Sure enough, she found that many passer-by were looking at her in shock
Sure enough... were they treating her as a psycho?
Eliza smiled embarrassedly and forced herself to put Braint on the ground. Then she picked up the lily bouquet in his arms and said, "Thank you for your flowers. I like it very much."
"As long as you like it!"
Braint looked at Eliza with a smile and then carefully walked over. "Miss Wood, can I have a chat with you?"
Eliza furrowed her eyebrows and nodded.
She carefully handed the bouquet to Alan who was behind her, squatted down and brought her ears closer to Braint. "What do you want to say?"
"I have a secret to tell you."
Braint smiled and approached her ear.
"Daddy actually knew you were mommy!"
"He was just pretending, because he knew that you didn't want him to know that you changed your name, so he continued to act with you."
Eliza frowned and finally understood.
No wonder...
Just as she said, how could Beau be interested in an ugly person like her?
"Mommy, don't have too much psychological burden. Anyway, it was daddy's fault. Take this opportunity to torture daddy with the identity of Cerys. Demarion, Liliana and I all support you!"
Eliza paused and turned to glance at the man who was talking to Alan in the distance. Then she nodded silently. "Yes."
Looking at Eliza's relieved look, Braint couldn't help but purse his lips.
He was right.
The two grandfathers only tried to persuade mommy to give daddy a second chance to start over, but they forgot to tell mommy that daddy already knew who she was!
As expected, he had to handle such an important matter personally.
After simply giving Eliza a few more reminders, Braint smilingly patted Eliza's shoulder and lowered his voice. "Mummy, don't worry."
"The three of us have discussed about it. We are in no hurry to let you go home."
"You can continue to torture daddy for a while."
After that, he turned around, ran back to the car and left.
Eliza stood where she was, watching as Braint left. Her eyes narrowed slightly.
Just now, she asked Braint a few questions.
Everything Beau said yesterday was a lie to her.
About how Braint couldn't fall asleep, Demarion became silent, and Liliana became thinner by five or six pounds. It was all fake!
It was Beau who made up this story on purpose to make her feel sorry for him!
"Miss Wood."
Behind her came Beau's elegant and low voice. "After accepting my flowers, you should have a date with me, right?"
"Sounds good."
Eliza's hands clenched into fists, but a brilliant smile appeared on her face.
"I can go on a date with you today, but you have to practice martial arts with me, okay?"
