Chapter 303 – [Bonus Chapter] Your Secrets!
He looked so hurt that she bit her lips. She felt like she was discarding him after taking his advantage,
"But that does not mean that we can cross the lines!" her eyes widened once the word left her mouth! But it was already too late!
His eyes had started sparkling already!
"I.. I mean!" she stammered as she looked here and there, trying to find a proper way of explanation when he walked closer to her and her chin tightly in his hands.
Raising her head, he stared deep into her startled eyes and then muttered slowly,
"Are you trying to deny when you have already accepted? Hmmm? Do you not like me Evan or is there someone else in your heart!?" His words came out through so much pressure that she realized how much he was trying to control himself.
She felt a tinge of guilt looking at his face full of hurt! Was she taking too much time and worrying about him! He was looking like an abandoned lover who was left after being taken advantage of.
She was shocked when the thought crossed her mind and she gulped involuntarily. How could she have the courage to forsake the young lord of Thawyne family!?
"I mean though I have accepted your confession! I think we should take it slow!" she stammered to find the proper words so that he would not misunderstand her.
"Okay!" but before she could do so he readily accepted! He replied so fast that she thought he had tricked her!
"I will do as you say, but do not think too much about it now!" holding her by her waist, he brought her closer to his chest and leaned on her shoulders.
Taking her scent in, he finally took a breath of relief! He had thought that he would have to act injured and gain a lot of sympathy from her so that she would accept this relationship! But it went much more smoothly than he had thought, thanks to the dress!
Now he wanted to thank the boutique who did such a lousy fitting!
"Now that we are a couple, I can kiss you as much as I want! In fact, I will ask my father to fix our marriage as soon as possible!" he kept muttering in a slow voice as if he was still grieving over her cold behavior towards him like a dejected wife!
Cold sweat started to form on her face as she continued to hear him.
"Wouldn't it be too early for the marriage?" though she had said yes for dating him!
Getting the post of the duchess and the responsibilities coming with it! Was she even reaching for that?
Leo remembered the long line of competitors that were trying to woo her! In fact, there were fools who had seen her only for a minute or two, yet they looked completely enchanted by her looks!
He could not take the risk of her getting stolen by them! He would rather chain her. In fact, he wanted to lock her in a room and keep there for the rest of her life!
That way only he would be able to see her! His eyes kept getting darker the more he thought about this option and his grip on her hands getting tighter that she started to feel uneasy!
"What are you even thinking about?" she felt that his face had turned strange and he was looking at her with weird eyes as if he was trying to burn her bones.
"Nothing, go and get dressed! I will wait for you in the room!" Without waiting for her reply, he turned and walked out of the room.
His eyes were still filled with dark lights while his mind was swirling with crazy thoughts that he closed his eyes and took a deep breath to get them out of his mind.
He was sure if he would try to force her, then she would only try to get rid of him. She was not like others who were deeply attracted to him or in love with him!
She just has a liking towards her which he needed to deepen or she could still be stolen by someone else!
But how? How would he do that! He started to take his brains as his face started to darken when the words of Aiden flashed in his mind once again and slowly a smirk crawled on his lips.
Oblivious to the tremors the man was facing, Evan was stunned when he left her suddenly after sticking like glue for half of the day.
She shook her head and picked up the dress which was crumpled and still not repaired.
Taking a deep breath she wore it and then picked up the belt from the floor. Tying the rest of the threads, she used the belt to hold the dress in place and wore the coat over it to hide her back.
Splashing some water over her face, she arranged her hair and adjusted the makeup on her face. But no matter how much she tried, her swollen lips could be noticed easily.
After trying for a long time, she finally sighed and gave up on them.
Walking out of the room, she looked at the man who was wearing the shirt of his father and was lost in thought that he didn't even notice that she had come out.
"What are you thinking about now?" she stood in front of him with uneasy eyes, the look on his face was frightening her.
He had often looked cold and even looked at her with a fuming and dark face, yet right now, his eyes were looking like a blackhole that would suck her or anything passes through them. That was frightening!
"Since we are in a relationship now, do you not think you should come out clean with me and tell me your every secret?"
"………."
