"My lord, I am telling you! If you asked me to try another dress and change again then I would.. I would go berserk and.." she did not know what she would do but she was sure that she would go crazy and pull all her hair in frustration. Yes! He's not hers.. Since he was the one who was making her crazy.
Her eyes narrowed on his hair with the intention to go forward and pull all of them.
"It is fine, this dress would do!"
"No! Did I not say that I would not change anymore? This dress should do.." she shook her head and looked at him with anger when she felt him stare at her and then,
"Wait what did you say?" he just scoffed at her exaggeration and stood up. His long fingers elegantly buttoned his coat and then walked out of the room.
While she continues to stand there in a daze while looking at her dress. She had worn all the beautiful dresses first to look presentable but he did not approve of any and now that she had worn the oddest one, he agreed to it!
Could it be that he wants her to look like a fool so that rumours start spreading again?! She was still in deep thought when she felt his piercing gaze staring at her with annoyance.
She raised her head only to find him standing out of the door already while she did not move at all.
He glared at her face and then looked at her body and she felt conscious of his sudden gaze, "I always knew fat people have trouble walking!"
".........." fat! Fat! Did he called her obese just now!
Her dumbfounded face was hilarious. Her glaring eyes and pursed lips were looking so adorable that Leo wanted to run and go pinch her cheeks. But before his hands could go out of control, he turned and muttered,
"Try to walk! It would help you in losing a bit!"
"You! What do you mean! I am not fat. Hmph!" she stomped her feet and muttered only to run away behind him as he had already crossed a big distance.
When they walked out of the room, the carriage was already waiting for them and so was a group of knights. She always felt his lifestyle was a bit fleshy with all the knights standing around him on his beck and call.
Leo walked to the carriage and entered without waiting for him but his eyes narrowed when she did not follow him immediately.
He was about to growl and snap at her while drawing the curtains away when he saw her talking to a knight with a smile on her face.
His eyes turned dark as he looked at them from the corner of his eyes. She had never smiled like that in his presence!
Her pair of eyes glow when she smiles like that and she looks very captivating! Yet when he looked at her smiling self, he felt a strange fury burning him.
His face was still calm yet his eyes turned dark when he heard the giggling.
"Evangeline! If you did not come in the carriage, you will be the one responsible for being late for the work!" he hollered and she blinked.
"......" was he serious? Were they not being late when he had asked her to change clothes so many times. Now that she was about to fall in the long gown and a man had helped him,
He didn't have time that she could even say thanks to him? How cruel and cold! He did not have the habit to thank others, but she wouldn't let go of the kindness the man had shown to her.
"My lady, I think you should hurry. Master is getting angry!" The knights tred to turn and run away when he saw the scary eyes of Leo who was looking at him, like he would kill him then and there.
This was the first time that he had felt his master was so scary!
"Ohh, then I should get going. Once again thank you for the help!" even she could feel the cold glare of Leo towards the knight.
She did not want the man to get into trouble because of her. Holding the dress in her hands, she took quick steps towards the carriage.
she opened the door, she thought that Leo would help her but the man had already closed his eyes as if he was tired and was taking a nap. She pursed her lips and somehow managed to enter the carriage while holding the door with all her strength.
She still did not understand why has chosen such a long, heavy and uncomfortable dress for her! She would die of the heat or by falling when walking while wearing this dress!
"You came too early! Why not take an hour or so to get to know the other knights too?" he asked in a clam tone and his expressions were blank. It was difficult to know if he was telling the truth or mocking her for being slow. His eyes did not reveal his emotions but had turned even darker.
"Tk! Wasn't it you that called me so urgently telling us we are getting late?" she snorted and then closed the door of the carriage with a thud that even scared the knights.
"Are the couple having their first fight?" asked one while whispering to the nearby knights who shook his head.
"I am even surprised how the lady was able to handle the ever changing behaviour of the master so far!"
"Shush, if the master would listen to you then you have to follow the carriage on your feet rather than a horse!" The threat was enough to close the mouth of every one of them. They did not want to tire themselves before the training by running all the way to the training area.
"Ha! So you were planning to stand there and talk more if I had not called you?"
