A Beautiful Misunderstanding

Chapter 196 Mudslinging

Valery was discharged after staying in the hospital for two days. She couldn't wait to continue her battle with Essie.

Essie, on the other hand, was trying her best to ignore Valery's existence⁠—out of sight, out of mind.

In the evening, Zac accompanied his father to play chess in the study, while Essie went to the garden on her own. Last time, she didn't see the Epiphyllum orchids blooming because of the rain, so that night, she intended to try her luck.

She had decided to launch the Epiphyllum line with the slogan: "Seize the most beautiful moment."

In the garden, Walt was wandering aimlessly like a ghost. When he saw Essie, he quickly walked over to her.

"Why did you come out here alone? Didn't Zac accompany you?"

"He's playing chess with Dad," Essie said with a smile.

"Walk with me?" he offered with a smile.

Essie slightly shook her head, smiling back at him. "That's okay, I want to wait for the Epiphyllum to bloom." Essie's long curly eyelashes fluttered like butterfly wings.

"Epiphyllum?" This was news to Walt, and his face showed mild shock. "There are Epiphyllum orchids in the garden? When did you get them?"

"Some time while you were in America," Essie replied with a smile. "It was raining the last time I came here, so I didn't get to see them bloom. Today's weather is so good, so I think God will bless us."

"It's a flash in the pan, and I've never seen it before. If you don't mind, I'll wait with you and see for myself what it looks like." Walt looked down at Essie with a slight smile. He was not really interested in flowers, only in the person who came to see them.

They reached the southwest corner of the garden. Several flower buds and branches were drooping under the green leaves of the Epiphyllum.

Essie's face reflected her anticipation of the rare event, and she looked at the Epiphyllum with her big, beautiful eyes twinkling under the moonlight.

"So, this is the mythical Epiphyllum," said Walt, rubbing his chin with a thoughtful look.

"The flower only appears for a short while for the Bodhisattvaa Skanda. People say that it only blossoms for love," Essie said with a smile.

"It also withers for love." Walt listened to her words, a trace of sadness in his eyes.

"A beautiful thing will never be forgotten, even if you only had it for a short moment. It's just like love: not all lovers can be together, maybe they are forced to separate for various reasons, but the days spent together will always be the best memories. Those days are remembered forever..." Essie gazed at the flower bud, her voice trailing off as she got lost in her thoughts.

Her words struck a chord within Walt. The days spent in Maldives with her were exactly like the blooming of Epiphyllum buds—short-lived and beautiful. He had quietly buried the seed of love in his heart, and the seed took root, sprouted, and flourished. It was a pity that his love was unrequited. Before he was able to reach her heart, his younger brother got to her first.
