Chereads / Trapped Destinies / Chapter 21 - The Sweet Moments

Chapter 21 - The Sweet Moments

Oliver was strolling fuming with anger. His mind is wavering. He just saw something so unbelievable

A knock on the door disturbed his thoughts

"Who is that," Oliver yelled

He can't hear a reply as the rooms are soundproof.

He saw his staff standing out of the room with a tray. He zoomed the screen and saw utensils in the tray. Assuming that as the dinner for Louisa, he ordered his bots to open the door

The servant walked in with the tray

"Sir, Ms. Miller's dinner," he said looking down

"Leave that on the table and leave the room. Come inside only after I call you," Oliver said

The servant nodded his head and left the room closing the door

Oliver sighed once the servant left the room.

"Louisa, I love you a lot Baby," Oliver said looking at the picture of him holding the 3 years old Louisa in his hands

------------

The servant bowed before taking a leave from Oliver taking the food tray with him.

He knocked on the door and waited for the door to open

"I will attend the door," Flora told Louisa

Louisa smiled at that while Flora opened the door

"It's the supper for the little Madam," the servant said handing over the tray to Flora and she smiled at him

Once he took the leave Flora closed the door and walked towards Louisa

"Lou darling, your supper is here"

"No Aunt Flora, I don't want to have anything now. Please leave me," Louisa pleaded Flora

"No Lou, just look at the tray. It only has light food. See how delicious the salad looks with the tomato and lettuce julienne," Flora said opening the lid

It really looked delicious with all the garnishing

"I will just drink the smoothie," Louisa requested

"Request overruled, you had nothing since evening, and from what your Father Mr. Miller said you are quite weak. So I am not going to leave you without completing the food," Flora said with a hint of seriousness

"Why are being so tough?" Louisa asked with a pout

"If I won't be tough, my darling baby will never listen to me. Now have it without further delay," Flora said setting the table up for Louisa

Having no option left Louisa dragged her feet to the table

"Everyone labels me as stubborn but you are the most stubborn person I ever met. You deserve the title of 'The stubborn queen'. I will make sure that an award is being made on the title and will present that to you," Louisa yelled whining

Flora laughed at that and said, "You are still a little girl"

Louisa put a serious face but eventually broke into laughter watching Flora's divine smile

"How is it?" Flora asked as soon as Louisa ate a morsel

"It's delicious and refreshing too Aunt Flora," Louisa said chewing the salad

"Good, so complete it and fill your little tummy," Flora said sitting next to Louisa

"My tummy is no more little one Flora. I can eat a whole buffet," Louisa answered smiling

"First eat the food present in the tray without whining then I will think about believing in your claims," Flora teased Louisa

"You are constantly pulling my leg, Aunt Flora. Just see how much of a foodie I have become," Louisa said taking a big morsel

Flora smiled at that as she wanted Louisa to finish the food and she achieved that now by poking her

"Look at it Aunt Flora, I have completed the whole salad and drank the smoothie too," grinned Louisa showing the empty utensils

"By the way Aunt Flora, I know that you fake angered on me only to make me eat. I know all your tricks," Louisa said smiling

"Then why did you follow them without refuting?" Flora asked

"Because I know that it's my Aunt Flora's love and I don't want to lose that," Louisa replied

Flora gave a peck on Louisa's forehead and smiled

"That's my girl," Flora patted Louisa

"You just take a stroll, I will clean everything and join you," Flora said

"No Aunt Flora, why would you clean that?" Louisa questioned

"Because I work here and that's my job" came the reply from Flora

"No Aunt Flora, this is not your work and you are not just a worker here, you are a part of the family. If not for the whole family, you are a major part of my life and my only happy place. Never say that you are just a servant here," Louisa said with anger

"Ok baby, I won't say like that. Now please leave the smug look and give me a beautiful smile," Flora requested

"Only if you promise me that you won't say these things anymore," Louisa replied still angry

"Okay, I promise my darling daughter that I won't say that things again," Flora promised which brought a smile on Louisa's face

Louisa pressed a buzzer and the servants entered the room. She ordered them to clean the place politely. They nodded at her and started their work

Louisa went towards the balcony and strolled looking at the sky

The natural air her plants emitted soothed her. She forgot all the negatives for quite some time and just lost herself in nature's bliss

Flora entered the balcony once the servants left the room.

"What's my darling doing?" Flora asked patting Louisa

"Nothing Aunt Flora, for once I am not thinking anything. I am just lost in the beauty of nature," Louisa said looking up

Flora didn't reply back anything and sat beside her

"Louisa, why don't you just stay here?" Flora asked

"I am staying here Aunt Flora, can't you see me?" Louisa asked smiling

"Louisa, you know what I am talking about. Why can't you just stay here? What is the need for you to stay so far away from here? You have a whole floor only made for you totally according to your taste," Flora said deeply looking at Louisa

Louisa didn't answer her anything and looked the other side

"Lou, I am waiting for your answer," Flora said after waiting for Louisa's reply

"What do you want to hear Aunt Flora? You know my answer and if you want to hear that again just remember the previous encounters. You won't receive a new answer," Louisa said clearly

"Why are you so adamant about that Louisa?" Flora questioned

"Aunt Flora, please don't start that now. I don't want to disturb my peace now," Louisa replied

Louisa looked at Flora who is looking down. She understood that her Aunt Is hurt. If there is anyone, she loves with all her heart it's her Aunt Flora.

"Aunt Flora, tell me something do you miss me? Or you are happy that you got the freedom from my tantrums? Louisa asked arching her brows

Louisa's smile faded out when Aunt Flora gave her a serious stare
