Chapter 272 – [Bonus Chapter] A Tinge Of Guilt

"Where is brother Leo? I thought he would follow you too once you come to see me!" Eve put the cup of tea back in the tray and picked up the napkin to wipe her mouth.

Since she had left the breakfast table, Eli had personally come with food in her room. But the way she was looking at Eve with piercing eyes was making her squirm in her seat. It would have been better if there would have been someone else to change the subject

Now whatever she would say would be taken as an excuse. But if Eli would started asking questioning her then it would be a trouble.

She knew how Eli had the power over her. If it continued, she would spill the secret she was hiding so badly.

"I think he is busy with his realization! Though Evangeline is a commoner, she is chosen by father and now Leo is in love with her too.

So, we should support her if she becomes the duchess in the future!" Eli placed the cup in the tray too.

Her eyes were still filled with bewilderment on how this happened! But she was sure it was love in the eyes of Leo.

"Sister, I think we were wrong! We should not care if the person is commoner or noble! Even if he is a slave! What does it have to do with his skills and nature?

We should care more about how the person is!" Eli raised a brow when she felt the urgency in the voice of her sister.

"Whom are you talking about, Eve?" Eli knew that something was going on with Eve, she had seen her leaving the palace secretly or staying missing for a whole day recently. 

Beating around the bush was never in her nature as she was worried that her sister might make a mistake. As much as she is bubbly and sweet, she was still naive and innocent who did not have much knowledge about how this world works.

Eve shuddered when she heard the intense voice of her sister and felt her gaze making holes in her mind and body.

Her heart pounded like crazies and she struggled to maintain a calm face and spoke in a sweet tone, "what are you talking about, sister? Are we not talking about Evangeline and Leo?

I have seen how close they have come with time. In fact, I was the first to tell you about them. 

I think we should fix the date of their marriage when the father returns in a day or two." with a confused gaze, she started and continued with a smiling face.

"Even i want to see them happy with each other!" she added when Eli did not stop staring at her. It made her fidget in her place but she could not show that she was nervous.

"Hmm, as long as my family is happy. I am fine with it too! But I hope that they did not make mistakes and hide things in the family!

If Leo likes Evangeline, he should tell her so. And so do you!" Eve, who was nodding her head, felt stunned when she heard the last words.

"Me! What about me?" all the hair of her body rose when she looked at Eli with shock!

Even if she knew something, she could not know about this! No! How could she know when she did not love anyone! Did she!

Her body churned as the strange thoughts started to fill her heart.

"Evelyn! Are you hiding something from me?" It was rare for Eli to call Eve with her full name and whenever it happened, Eve knew that she was in trouble.

Eve hid her sweaty hands in her dress and looked at Eli with a frown on her face,

"What are you talking about? It has been ages since I have left the palace and I spend most of the time studying since you know that the exams will be held soon. I have to get the best position in the academy and I still have a few social gatherings to attend!" the frown on her face only increased as if she did not understand what Eli was talking about!

The confidence she had used in her voice confused Eli! Had she been wrong or had over-thought? Eve had never lied to her and why would she! From childhood they have been close to each other.

"Eve! I only want to say that if there is anything that matters, you will come to me first! I am your sister and no one in this world would support you as your family!" she emphasized as she did not know why but she was feeling that there was something missing with Eve but at the same time she trusts that she would not like them.

"Of course, I knew that sister! But I do not understand what you are talking about!

  And why do you worry about us so much when you have so much to worry about already! I sometimes feel that you need a break and a good vacation. 

I hope marriage in the house will bring change!" she nudged her head on the shoulder of Eli and then wrapped her hands on her shoulders and hid her face in Eli\'s chest.

Eli took a deep breath and sighed! Thank god her concern was for nothing. She did not want her sister to get bad experiences in life.

Just as Eve hid her face in the embrace of Eli, her eyes filled with guilt. She bit her lips to control a whimper coming out from her lips

\'I am sorry, sister! I did not want to lie to you but I have no choice for now.

I can not put someone else in danger because of my mistake!"
