Chapter 428 Calm Before The Storm(Chapter Preview)



"No! Evan, there is no point of argument. I can not do what you are asking me." in a stern voice, William replied as he stood up from the sofa.

His face that expression that he would not listen no matter what she would say, so it would be better that she would give it up.

Evan sighed, she could not understand why it could not be done. More evidence could be fabricated and it sounds more realistic than his father\'s theory but he was not even listening to her properly.

"But why? You do not have enough evidence to prove your theory. What if his majesty decided to not accept it and punish all of you for deceiving the empire.

After all, there is proof that my mother had paid for my expenditure and has even come to visit me a few times." her voice was adamant as she stood up and followed her father on his seat.

His hands were already crossed on his chest as he tried to intimidate him but she did not give up at all. She continued to stare back into the eyes of father with a determined look as if telling she would not give up this time.

"What do you mean why? You are the daughter of this family and truth is bound to come no matter what!" she only shook her head with her eyes full of disappointment as if she was expecting a better excuse than that.

For some reason she felt like the emperor would not help them. In fact, he would use this opportunity to show his supremacy.

Though the family is related by blood, she had never seen him visiting them and did not get an amiable vibe from their family.

"That\'s not it! Is it not enough that we all know the truth? And would it make any difference in your love and care towards me if I would be known as your daughter in law instead of your daughter?" she asked in a soft tone with clam eyes completely in contrast with his angered state.

"Evangeline!"

"Father, you are making it difficult not only for us but for all the families who are dependent on us.

We have 32 vassal families and more than 800 people working for us. If anything happened to our name and we lost our credibility and then all would be mocked and have to bear consequences too.`` For some reason her uneasiness was going as if she was going to lose everything she had gotten after so long.

The look of desperation was so evident in her eyes that William felt a pang in his chest.

He was the one to make her so worried when he could have explained it to her that nothing would happen since they were in a higher post and they have not hurt any other noble.

"Do not worry princess, I promise nothing will happen to any of us. In fact. Let us go for a small vacation after everything is over tomorrow?" she raised her head only to look at his confident face that was telling her you are thinking too much.

Was she really being over sensitive because she always felt that she would lose the happiness she had gotten suddenly.

She nodded her head gently as she did not want to be stubborn when he had already told her so many times that everything was going to be fine.

Maybe she should just trust them and let them decide. There might be a chance that aunt would come and tell the truth too.

If he did not want to lie about her origins then she would not force him further.

"Then I will wait for you to decide the date, father!" she whispered softly as he hugged her and kissed her forehead softly.

"Yes, I will not disappoint you, dear. Now go and get some rest. Tomorrow is going to be a long day!" he whispered as he let her go from his arms.

Though disappointed, she gave a bright smile to her father as she did not want to worry him further.

She knew though her father was not showing it, he was worried too.

Taking slow steps out of the room, the guard bowed his head and trembled noticing her presence back. But she did not give him any attention as she walked back to her room.

Leo was sitting on the bed and looking at the papers she was reading before when she reached the room.

Hearing the sound of her footsteps, he raised her head and waved his hand for her to come closer.

"Why are you here?" she asked with an annoyed look on her face as she did not take a single step in his direction but crossed her hands over her chest.

"Where should a husband be, if not for the room of his wife? Come here and let me hug you, honey!" ha! His soft words only irked her further as she walked with brisk steps and took the papers back from him while jerking his hands away when he tried to touch her.

"Wife! My foot! You were not here when I needed you and now you are behaving as if you love me too much!

You can not just come and go as you wish! Leave the room now!" She took away all the papers and then glared at her like a tigress while he only blinked like a scared puppy. His pleading eyes were looking at her softly as he moved closer and tugged her dress like a kid who was afraid to speak louder.

"Honey, you are forgetting that you have asked me not to visit your room for the next week! Do you know how desperately I was counting days to come back to your arms?

How can you blame me for my absence when you are the one who had thrown me away mercilessly! you should let me eat you as a compensation for breaking my weak heart instead!!"
