Chapter 279 – Let Me Help You!
"Welcome, my lord!"
Had he been hallucinating? His eyes narrowed on the girl that was looking as surprised as him but soon she recovered from her shock and welcomed him,
He walked closer to her and only stopped when he was just an inch away from the girl.
Before she could open her mouth and speak at work, he flicked her forehead.
"Awww!" Evan, who was stunned to see the man appearing out of nowhere, winced when she felt the pain on her forehead.
She rubbed the place as her cheeks puffed up. She knew that he was angry, but she had never expected that he would talk with his hands when they would meet.
"Why did you do that?" her eyes looked at him with grievances as if she had been stabbed to death.
"So, it is really you!"
"……." so, he flicked her forehead because he wanted to be assured that it was her! Was his eyes not working?
"What are you doing here?" before she could even reply, he asked another question as his face turned dark.
It looked like he was the one who was beaten and now he was angry!
"What can i do in the kitchen except cooking?" she snorted as she turned and walked towards the kitchen counter and showed him a long line of dishes.
"I have made all kinds of dishes. Seafood, lean meats and even salad and desserts. The kitchen was filled with…" she continued to show him the dishes with a proud face.
She was sure that he would be enchanted by her when he would see how much hard work had she done to coax him.
She was so engrossed in showing off that she did not notice how his face was getting dark every passing second.
Before he was feeling like his heart was clawed by the beast inside him, but now he was feeling like he was stabbed by the same beast.
His whole body burnt with anger. He could not believe that she cooked so many dishes for Aiden after dissing him!
Well dome! And here he was, planning a date with her.
Taking a deep breath, he tried his best to regain his composure, but it was getting hard whenever he looked at her beaming smile.
"Who had asked you to cook here?" the words came out through gritted teeth, which brought the girl back to reality.
And she turned to look at the man who was emitting the cold air that was giving a chill to her. She frowned as she felt there was something missing. Shouldn\'t he be happy that she had cooked so much for him.
"Umm, it was Lady Grace! Why! Was I not supposed to be here?" she knew it! It might be the trick of the girl to trap her.
Why would the wife of nobles come and cook for their husbands in the office when they did not cook at home? It was all lies to make her cook! Now Leo must be feeling embarrassed because she worked like maids here.
Her eyes moved away from him to the young man standing behind him with a shocked face. He was looking surprised too.
Her cheeks burnt red when they both did not move their gaze away from her face,
"That.. should i not be here?" she asked in a low voice as she lowered her head and cursed herself.
\'Fool! How could you trust anyone so easily! You should have denied her right there!\' but somewhere she was swayed because of the words the girl had used though she did not realize it herself.
"No! You should be here only. We apologize for keeping the lady waiting!" The first one to break the silence was Aiden who was enchanted by the look of the girl that it took him a few seconds to come back to his senses.
The girl had a natural beauty as she was standing there without any makeup and even wearing a simple dress.
The side of her forehead was covered with flour and her hair had turned sticky and covered her neck. Yet her eyes were clear. The soft glow of sun falling from the window behind her, giving her soft features halo of angel.
Even her face was filled with genuine expressions and she even had the courage to talk to Leo without stuttering. That was difficult for him sometimes too. She was truly a beauty that was down to earth but brave!
He was amazed by the way she carried herself,
"Do not mind my brother, he is just a bit cold but he is a kind name. You must have heard about the name, Leo Thawyne, the one and only son of duke Thawyne!" Evan raised her head and looked at the man with confusion.
Why was he introducing Leo to her? She could recognise the man and his voice even in her dreams.
"Shouldn\'t you introduce yourself instead of him?" how did he suddenly become brother of leo! She had not seen him even in the tea party of the palace.
Looking at her curious face, a smile bloomed on the face of Aiden while the face of Leo turned darker.
"Oh! You seem to be in a rush to know about me. Huh? But these kinds of things should be dealt with slowly.
Why don\'t we sit down and talk about it first?" Instead of clearing the doubts, his words only increased Evan\'s confusion.
Her frown grew deeper as she turned her head and looked at Leo for clarification but he was not even looking at her anymore
A cold and cynical smirk formed on his face as he titled his head and asked the man standing beside him,
"You wanted to get rid of the girl Lady Grace had chosen for you, right? Let me help you then!"
