Five Lost Angels: My Husband's Fatal Deception novel Chapter 178

"You can schedule an appointment for tomorrow, Ma'am. Good evening!”

My request for Sienna's personal number ended up in a failure as I felt dejected, disappointed by my whole adventure. It was the ideal time to do something special for our precious relationship and I failed terribly, this was my new record of uselessness. Lowering my head in shame, I came out as the last person. The guards locked the doors of the office behind me.

The inability to achieve my goal enveloped my existence with darkness, I was only one step away from meeting Sienna, but Leo's interference ruined everything.

I sighed heavily, muttering under my breath.

"You will surely die by my hands one day, Leo. Screw you!”

But my cursing couldn't continue for a long time as something strange dropped on my head, making me flinch.

"What's this …”

One step forward and a waterfall directly landed on my face, halting me in my tracks. It was followed by the loud thunder of clouds, announcing the sudden rainfall. I swore impulsively as it was raining cats and dogs outside.

"Fuck! Only this was left!”

Although I had checked the weather in the morning and the possibility of rain was ninety percent, it slipped from my mind due to one after another setbacks. I stomped my foot on the ground, wrinkling my nose in distaste.

"The smell of wet soil after an eventful day! The Lakon city is indeed unpredictable"

The soothing scent of rain was always my favorite, calming my soul, but now, it felt irritating. I wanted to shout and beat my hands on the ground like a toddler to protest against Heaven's injustice.

The water droplets raced down in a frenzied state, hitting me relentlessly, I was difficult to see in heavy rain. I was covering my eyes for some relief when a protective cover over my head saved me from downpour, a compassionate voice smiled beside me.

"It's awful to not have an umbrella in such weather"

Raising my head, I glanced at the tall, good-looking man by my side. He shared his umbrella with me at that critical moment. That savior was elegant in every way, sophisticated and refined. Anyone would love to capture his looks forever.

It wasn't that I hadn't seen beauty in my life, but that man was unique, exuding an air of royalty. He was handsome from the depths of his eyes to the gentle expressions of his voice, speaking politely.

"You are drenched in rain, Miss. It's not advisable to be wet in this weather"

Oops!

Due to my escalating frustration, I disregarded my condition and didn't bother to seek shelter from rain, getting wet in the process. That stranger's warm tone made me realize my mistake, I was shuddering in cold when he said,

"Let's go to the store and find something to wear for you. This icy wind is freezing!”

With that, he grabbed my arm, pulling me towards the nearby shopping mall. I followed him like an obedient puppy, completely mesmerized. There was something so dominating with his aura that I couldn't raise my voice to counter his frankness.

After all, he had touched me without permission!

We reached the famous clothing store in the mall in just five minutes. The first thing I noticed was the warm temperature of the store, washing a wave of relief over me. I didn't regret coming here with him.

Please enjoy!”

Instead of sitting with a stranger, I checked the clothes in the store while sipping my coffee, selecting some for the next visit. I wasn't in the mood to try on different outfits like a normal shopping day now. The store's staff was really cooperative and efficient, assuring me about the availability of the stock online as well. It was a golden offer for working ladies like me.

Honestly speaking, I was much better after coffee, so when it came the time to pay, I was in my senses. Receiving the bag of my clothes, I asked for the bill.

“How much for this—”

“Bill, please.”

A soft voice cut me off.

I blinked.

He was suddenly beside me.

The mystery man had appeared out of nowhere, flashing a sleek black card at the cashier.

“She’s with me,” he said smoothly.

My jaw dropped.
