(Martina’s P.O.V.]
Grimm was driving the president’s car. He was the president’s secretary, representing the president’s will. I was not. I was just a small acting store manager. Sitting in the president’s car is just a show of strength.
He seemed to see my embarrassment, and said gently, “Miss Martina, please don’t feel burdened from this. You deserve it. The Werewolf Cultural project is the most important project for the president right now. The most important project deserves the best service. You just need to focus on your work
right now.”
In that case, I tried to not be shy. I stepped out of the luxury car and looked around Empress Alley.
Intersections usually meant a good location, but unfortunately, the shop did not even have this. It was located in the middle of the entire alley. If one did not walk in, they would not be able to see it from both ends.
‘The huge dark billboard covered the entire second floor. The characters on the billboard were decorated with artistic flowers, but the color blended into the background, so even if the characters were huge, they did not look prominent.
When one entered the store, the fragrance of the flowers assailed their nostrils. In addition to a large number of ornamental potted plants, the blooming flowers were placed in an orderly manner. It was like walking into an indoor botanical garden. The freshness of nature was all inside.
The interior decoration of the hall was also mainly done by Grimm. The overall harmony and unity displayed the beauty of the plants to the maximum.
If this was a botanical garden, I would definitely give it a full score.
However, it was a shop, a non-attractive shop with little traffic. It would be strange if one could make money selling flowers in such a place.
Flower bouquets were never a necessity. Empress Alley was an old city district. Most of the residents here were poor. Unless the rich had nothing to do, why would they come here? From the viewpoint of the general population, selling flowers here would not garner their attention.
Even if the flowers were amazing, this was not the place to sell them. Right idea, the wrong place. I turned to ask Grimm, “Does the group have any other flower shops? Send them all over there.”
Grimm shook his head. “There’s only one flower shop. Otherwise, the project would not have been approved in the first place.”
“It would be a pity to sell such a beautiful botanical garden, but we can’t them occupy the space in the shop. Is there a place that can accept all the things here? In the future, the Werewolf Cultural Street will definitely be built with all these. It would be a pity to waste these plants.”
Grimm thought for a moment and suddenly laughed happily. I could not help but wonder what he had thought of. Obviously, he did not want to share it with me considering he did not elaborate further and left with a phone call. Not long after he made the call, a professional gardener came over to
transfer the plants.
The workers needed time for construction. I took the opportunity to inspect the internal structure of the store. As for how to decorate it, there had to be a plan that could be implemented.
I thought that I needed a place to work. After Grimm gave me all the instructions, he immediately brought me back to the group headquarters.
However, just as I walked down to the second floor, I stopped.
It was Louis, Anna’s main bodyguard. He had brought his bodyguards to capture me!

Iran back to the second floor in a panic. Grimm looked at me with a face filled with confusion. “Didn’t you say you were going to explore the first floor? Why are you back so soon?”
1 did not know how to explain it. Since Daniel saved me, I have been staying in his private hospital. That was Silver Mountain Group’s territory. The Marcus family did not think that I would get involved with the Silver Mountain Group, naturally, they would not go there to search.
Thad always been safe in the hospital. Today was the first time I came out, and I had been discovered.
Thad escaped with great difficulty. I absolutely could not go back.
I did not want to marry that perverted old man, Richard. I wanted to build a Werewolf Cultural Street for Daniel!
My expression was too death-like, and I had been squatting on the ground trembling, Grimm strode over, locked the door, and returned to my side, he gently comforted me. “Relax, Miss Martina. Don’t panic. I know it’s hard for you to say it, so please don’t force yourself. I’ll be the one asking the
questions. All you have to do is to just answer yes or no.”
“Yes,” I replied with difficulty. I did not want to hide anything. I only hoped that Grimm could help me and not let me be taken back by Louis.
“You saw someone you didn’t want to see?”
“Yes.”
“You didn’t want to see them because they hurt you?”
“Yes.”
“You’re afraid that they’ll hurt you again?”
“Yes.”
Grimm stopped asking at this point. He seemed to be afraid of reminding me of bad memories and comforted me instead. “Miss Martina, don’t be afraid. It’s very safe here. They won’t hurt you again. You can rest assured.”
‘The promise made by Grimm was supposed to make me feel safe, but I could not calm down because of the fear that had been rooted in my mind for more than ten years.

I barely escaped from my stepmother more than once.
Each time it happened, no matter where I ran or hid, Louis would catch me. I was more afraid of him than of my stepmother, who was the source of my suffering.
I was so afraid that this time — like every other time — Louis would take me back without mercy.
I looked pleadingly at Grimm, and at that moment, there was a thundering sound in my ear that jolted me.
There was a knock at the door..
