Chapter 290 – [Bonus Chapter] Long Lost Lovers
"Lily, why is there so much crowd? Anyways, go and ask the physician. I need a favor from him. If he could come with me to see an injured patient!" the girl\'s brows knitted but when she saw an anxious Evan with him, she nodded and left without a word.
"You seem to be too wary of me as if I have offended you!" Aiden tucked both his hands in the pocket of his pants and continued to look at the cheering crowd as he asked the question to Evan who was surprised by his sudden statement.
"There is nothing like that, my lord! I am just a bit reserved to strangers!" here she drew the line again by calling him stranger.
He shook his head as he did not know what he was even trying!
Soon Lily came back with the physician who looked at Aiden with a confused gaze.
He scanned all over his body and did not find any discomfort or injury!
"Who is unwell, my lord??" for him to come personally to fetch him, the person must be someone important. As mostly staff come to fetch him or the patient comes directly to meet him.
"Young lord visited the ministry today, and he got injured accidentally!"
The words brought another deep frown on the face of the physician. Since then Leo started caring about small wounds! Had he not ignored them, telling a knight should not worry about small injuries, it would only make him weak!
But he only nodded his head and followed them.
"I will take care of the physician from here. I have already taken enough time from the lord. I can not ask for more!" Evan bowed her head indecisively as she left the stunned man there while walking away with the physician.
Aiden continued to look at the disappearing figure of Evan with closed eyes and then shook his head with a chuckle.
"Are we finally going back to your office, my lord?" came the voice of his aide behind him yet he was not even sure when the man came there. He had always been this efficient and considerate.
"Hmm, we should go and look for the girl if she is still waiting there!" he sighed as he ran a hand in his air why his eyes filled with a wary look. He seemed to be tired suddenly with the ways he was wandering around in his life.
The aide looked at the man with concerned eyes but did not utter a single word as he continued to follow him.
Completing the last file in his hand, Leo put it back at its place while looking at the door for the umpteenth time. He wanted to go and check up on her but he was worried that he would bump into her and she would find out that he was lying!
Who would have thought that the first lie of his life would make him that helpless. Now all he could do was act helpless and wait for her here!
He pursed his lips and contemplated should he ask someone to look for her since she attracts trouble like a magnet! But before he could act on it, the door of the room opened and Evan came in followed by the physician.
His cold and calm face instantly turned pale and his face looked like he was suffering from extreme pain.
When Evan\'s eyes fell on Leo, she felt guilty for taking so much time and hurriedly walked towards him.
"The wound was not large or deeper. It was made of shards of glass. I have already cleaned the wound and wrapped it with a clean cloth. It even passed half of the day, but suddenly it started bleeding again and it is hurting a lot.
Could it be an infection or I might not be able to see clearly and a small piece was left in! It should not have been like this!" she was still confused why Leo was having pain now when he should have been fine.
After blabbering way too much, she turned to look at the physician who was staring at Leo and Leo was staring back at the physician as if they were having a staring contest.
If she didn\'t know any better she would have thought that they were lost lovers who were talking through their eyes. Suddenly she felt very awkward while standing there and coughed to gain some attention.
Both men turned to look at her at once and she cleared her throat, "what do you think went wrong?"
"I have to check the wound for which I have to take off his pants. If you do not mind, can you leave us alone, my lady?" though the words were normal yet she felt something was amiss with the way the physician was looking at her.
The same thought flooded her mind again but she shook her head which created a frown on the face of the physician.
"So you intend to stay in?" he asked with a cold voice that Evan could not help but feel strange! Why was he getting aggrieved like an angry lover?
"No! Of course not. I am leaving right away!" with that she turned to look at Leo. even he had strange expressions on his face as if he was feeling guilty! Or was she imagining way too much.
Turning, she walked straight out of the door and closed it shut. Leaning on the door, she took a deep breath when her eyes fell on the scene in front of her.
An old man whom she had never seen before was glaring at her as if she had stolen all his wealth. When she had thought that he would only glare and leave, he opened his mouth and asked in a cold voice,
"So, you are Lady Evangeline?"
