Chapter 122 - Cry Like A Kid



"Why? Did you forget that I was the one who was sitting on the seat of your head just a while ago?"

".........." the words stunned her. Her lips parted to complain but not a single word came out. She  had never expected that Leo, whom she had always supported, would be the one to raise a finger on her. And that also for a girl of unknown origin. No! he had accepted that it was William who was forcing him to marry the girl. could it be a simple reason of discipline then?

Her eyes instinctively moved towards Evan who was still staring at Leo with a complicated gaze and her eyes burnt. Her hands clenched into a tight fist as she felt the humiliation. No! She would not let this girl go easily who had dared to create a feud in her family!

But she did not utter a single word when she saw the blazing eyes of Leo. She would wait for a better chance, right now she could only let go to not create further rift between them. 

"Ezhan, called the physician over. Lord Leo had scalded his back and needed immediate treatment." called Eli to the butler who was standing there dumbfounded too. The butler who was sill not able to comprehend the situation,  nodded his head and bowed but before he could leave, Leo raised his hands high in the air and stopped him.

"I am fine. The soup was not hot enough. I only need to go and change my clothes. Do not worry." he replied, finally withdrawing his gaze from Aunt Gabriella and looking back at Eli with an assuring gaze. The frost in his eyes had dissipated a bit too.

When Leo parted his lips and spoke, Evan finally came out of her shocked state. She finally stopped staring blankly at Leo. She still could not believe that he came in front of her to take the hit that was meant for her.

  No matter how much her mind rationalized it, she did not seem to accept the reality. She was looking more shocked than Gabriella, as she pinched herself. 

Didn\'t he hate her from the first day and did everything to get rid of her? He even accepted a slap and forced her to behave oddly so that their marriage would get annulled? 

But if that was the case, why was he so worried that he was ready to get hurt to save her from the hit? A whirlpool of emotions started to fill her eyes as she could not father why he did so?

Even now when everyone was out of shock, she was not able to utter a single word. She only continued to look at him with enlarged eyes when he tried to protect her verbally too after the incident! When he assured them and started walking towards his room, she followed him instinctively as if she was possessed by him. 

Leo went into the room without noticing her presence behind him and started opening the button of his shirt when he heard the knock on the door.

"Come in." Thinking that it might be a servant that had come to help him or a physician, he allowed them to come in without even spearing a glance at the door.

Even entered with some hesitation in his room., it was her duty to treat his injuries if he had any due to the soup as he got hit in the attempt of protecting her. With that thought she had followed him, But she felt uneasy when she entered.

And the thought that was scaring her head turned true. He was standing there with all the buttons of his shirt open. The shirt was still there but it was barely covering his muscular chest that was slightly tanned due to the instance training he takes day and night. His muscles were proportionate and he was oozing a sexy look from his glistening chest.

His lines of abs were perfect and smooth and so was the inverted v figure on his waist area.

He was not only perfect with loose but with his body too. For a moment she felt jealous of his luck when it came to looking at her body and family!

"Are you there to drool over my body?" came a mocking voice and she blinked. She finally comes back to her senses only to see him glaring at her.

As if cold water was poured over all her body, Evan finally came back to her senses. Heat rose on her cheeks when she realized that he was blatantly staring at his naked chest. Flustered, she bowed her head down as she walked in.

"You got the wounds only because you were trying to save me. So as a responsible person, I am here to dress up your wounds." she knew the soup was too hot as the aunt had complained that she had served the cold food to her, Evan had made sure that the soup must be scalding hot this time.

She even remembered how his grip on her tightened when the soup fell on his body. That must have hurt. It might even have created blisters on his back. The thought created an unnerving feeling in her chest.

He must have lied to Eli as she was looking too worried and he might not want to stretch the matter too.

"You! I did not get any wounds. So you do not need to feel guilty." he rolled his eyes at her over exaggerating behavior but she was not ready to give up.

Instead of his denying, she took slow and steady steps inside his room,. She raised her head high when he looked at her with his frosty glare that was enough to scare even the highest level of knights too, but she stood there unperturbed.

"Why? Are you afraid that I will know that you cry like a baby when you are given medicines and applied ointment?"

"..............."
