Chapter 207 - [Bonus ] Lost Her Soul



Olivia clenched her hands into tight fists. Her nails dug deeper into her palms yet she felt numb to it. While all the colour of her face had been drained away when she heard the cold threat of Leo.

She had never thought that even when all the proofs were against Evan, he would still save Evan and blame her.

But could she accept defeat now that she was so close to her destination? She took a deep breath and looked back into his eyes.

"On what basis? What right did you have to slap me and ask me to scream when you are the one who is taking my help.

I was the only one who came forward to help you when you needed it and that is what you are returning to me in exchange? Leo! How could you be so partial?" she bellowed hard as she felt the injustice as she looked at Evan with hatred field eyes.

If possible she would have run away and ended the source of her gripe. She felt a sudden tightness in her chest as his words echoed in her mind.

As the words left her mouth, the eyes of Leo turned sinister and dark. His face was glum and cold. His eyes were filled with darkness that even left goosebumps all over the body of hazel.

She did not know which help Olivia was talking about but she was sure that Olivia had touched a weak nerve of Leo who was looking like he would devour the soul of everyone around him.

His eyes narrowed on her red face and he turned to look at his assistant who had followed him all this while.

"Since Miss Olivia Grasritias thinks that the palace of the duke could not survive without her help, I want you to return everything that she had offered us today.

And make sure to write a letter to the head of the Grasitias family that the Thawyne family would not do any deal with them in the future and would not welcome them in their offices or palace." Olivia who was still holding the last straw that he needed her right now, slipped and she lost to go closer to him completely and that was all because of Evan!

Didn\'t his words clear that he did not want to see her ever again?

For Olivia, Leo was a fragment of sky that she wanted to touch since she had come to know about him. From the past 10 years, she had paid every effort to reach closer to him, to get a place in his mind or life.

She did not fear anything except for losing his presence from her life. She had strived all her life only with the hope that she would stand one day beside him and would be equal to him.

One day, he would finally notice her worth and look at her with admiring eyes. Losing him was losing the reason for her living. If he was lost then nothing was left in her life.

Finally, her knees gave away and she staggered and then fell on the floor. To see that she was in such a daze, Leo did not even spare a second glance to her but walked past her and held the hand of Evan and pulled her with him and turned to leave, leaving the dazed Olivia alone.

Arden, who was still standing there, felt pity on the girl who had lost all the colour of her face. She was looking no different than a lifeless statue.

He took a deep breath as he looked back at the retreating figure of his boss and the girl who was also in daze. Not even once had the man noticed Olivia, why was she still so adamant about being with him?

He knew that she did not covet his wealth or status but her thought that only he was the best and deserving male around her was her thoughts that according to him were skewed.

Taking a deep breath, he moved closer to her and kneeled in front of her but did not dare to touch her relentlessly.

"My lady, shall I help you in returning to your carriage?" he asked in a polite and professional tone but she didn\'t even blinked.

There was no reaction from her anymore as if she could not hear him or feel his presence.

"My lady?" he called her again as he crawled a bit closer to her but it felt like the lady was lost in another world.

He took a deep breath and summoned his courage, to touch her shoulders gently as he did not have the hart to leave her on the cold floor alone when she was in such a bad state,

"Let it be! Even if she would slap me later, I would bear it!" he muttered under his breath as he held her shoulders a bit tightly this time and jerked her.

"Lady Olivia, what are you doing? Have you lost your self respect completely over a man who did not even turn to look at you for once?

How can you degrade yourself over a fool who did not understand your value? Was this the reason you have done so much hard work all your life? To make a joke of yourself in the public?" 

His words were harsh and so was his tone but his eyes were filled with concern for the girl who was looking like her soul had left her body.

He did not know what else to say to get her attention and to help her! His mind had turned blank when the girl finally blinked.

The tears she were holding this far filled her eyes and leaked out of her eyes as if the dam had been broken! 

Forgetting her status and position, she held onto the man who was passing a bit of warmth to her and leaned on his shoulders as she poured her every grievance out through tears and closed her eyes.
