Chapter 336 [Bonus Chapter] Take You Away!(Chapter Preview)
"Evangeline! There is no way I am going to close my eyes or leave you alone! So you better do what you want in front of me! We are getting late for the fireworks too!" Though his voice was soft, it was resolute and she knew there was no chance to argue.
"Why? Do I not have this much right too? Leo, I am going to marry you but that does not mean I will not have my personal space!" she hollered as anger filled her eyes!
She was only doing it for him. But even if not! She did not allow him to control her.
She bit her lips and stared at the shop again and this time he was alert enough to follow her eyes.
A look of astonishment passed his eyes but then it filled with warmth. He had never felt that touched even when he was bestowed with rare treasures of the world by the royal family or other nobles!
Without saying a word, he just pulled her closer and leaned into her embrace, astonishing her! Guilt filled her eyes, but if he thought that he could control her this way then he was so wrong!
"Leo!" she tried to struggle into his arms but his grip on her waist only tightened!
"Thank you! I love you the most Evangeline! I am thankful to God and to my father who brought you into my life!" her whole body turned still and she forgot that she was struggling to get free when she heard his voice full of emotions.
She did not know why but she felt a bit of wetness in it!
"But I did not want a scarf brought from the market! I want a scarf that is handwoven by you and that also has our name embedded on it in a heart and it should be of red colour!"
"........" who would have thought that the frozen young lord was so cheesy when it comes to love! She stared at him for a while but then scoffed and broke free from his embrace!
"Ha! Who was even looking for a scarf for you! I only wanted to have some snacks. And I wanted you to close your eyes so that I would not have a stomach ache later!"
"Yes, yes of course! Still I love you the most!" he chuckled as he stared at her reddish ears and fake anger on her face.
He wanted to pinch those red cheeks so much and so he did as he placed one of his hands on her shoulder and brought her towards the snacks stalls!
"Then, my lady, eat as much as you want. I promise I will keep my eyes away. Hahahaha!" feeling embarrassed with his meaningful glances and heart free laughs, she elbowed his chest and created distance between both of them.
"What did I say wrong this time?" he chuckled as he ran behind her and both of them stopped at a skewer shop as he ordered a plate when he stared at her with intense eyes!
"Evan! You will make a scarf for me. Right?" she pursed her lips and looked away! Could he not understand her silence? Why was he asking again!!
"Why would i? I do not have much time with all the preparations going on!"
"Hmm, then maybe after marriage when you have time! If this is a gift from you, I am ready to wait a lifetime for it!" an unconscious smile formed on her face that she even forgot that she was acting to be angry!
With a silly grin on her face she took the skewer from the vendor and brought it forward on his face.
Leo had always eaten food that was good for his health and according to the diet of knights. The oily and spicy flavor brought a frown on his face but when he looked at the expecting eyes of the adorable girl who was still feeding him even when she was angry, he did not have the heart to say no.
Opening his mouth, he took a small bite and the grilled flavor and spices with a lot of oil burst into his tongue immediately!
"How is it!"
"Not bad!" Instead of denying, the words changed automatically in his throat as he nodded his head but in the next second, the girl placed the whole meat in his hands!
"Then eat more, i will order more for myself!" Without waiting for his reply, she turned and walked to order another while Leo continued to stare at the skewer in his hands!
"...." why did he lie in the first place!
"Excuse me! I want another pack of the skewer please!" The man nodded and passed her another plate but even when she had held the food, the man did not let go of her hands and a frown formed on her lips.
"Hey.. what are you doing! Let go of my hand!" she shouted in a whisper as she did not want to gain the attention of Leo to irk him when the man raised his head.
It was not the skewer she had taken the food from but a man in a cloak whose face was hidden with a black cloth yet she felt the eyes were strikingly familiar to the person she had spent all her life with!
"Evan! You received the letter. Didn\'t you? Yet you are with him? Are you not afraid that they would discard you after using you!
I do not have enough time! Meet me at the bridge on Saturday night. I will take you away from here!"
