"Hmm, how could I do that? You have sprained your ankle and I could not ask an injured person to walk by herself could i?

"

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

" not only Evan was the one who stared at the man with a stunned face, but even Martin was stunned to see how loving they were behaving in front of them that they even forgot about their presence. He wanted to shout and remind them but as if his legs had been frozen and his mouth had turned, try that no words come out of his mouth.

"Hey! Why are you still standing here? Even if Evangi is injured, she wouldn't be fine if you continued to stand there while holding her that way.

Come in so that we could ask aunt Martha for ointment.

" Carl, who had no idea of what they were talking about and the awkward moment between the couple, shouted from the door of the old lady.

He had already reached there a minute ago thinking that they would be following closely. But when they were still not in, he came back to them only to hear the last words said by Leo and he frowned.

"Evangi there is no need to be embarrassed. Even Martin had held me all the time in his arms when I had sprained my ankle that day. You know he even kissed me when I was crying. Why don't you try that, my lord?

" he tattooed his head and asked Leo as he really wanted to go in and enjoy the meal.

"Thump!!!

" Evan felt like her heart would burst out of her ribcage when she heard the last line.

Even Leo who was only teasing her felt stunned when he heard about kissing. His eyes instinctively fell on her lips that were looking luscious. How would she react if he would kiss her suddenly?

Would she be frightened or would she beat him! He wondered what her lips would taste like. His Adam apple bobbed up and down and he felt a strange thirst that he could not explain.

Noticing his gaze, Evan shivered,

"what.. What are you even thinking, my lord?

" she asked in a voice that hardly came out of her mouth. Even when she was in his arms and they were so close, he was having trouble listening to her.

But that was enough to break the spell bound on him and blinked. With that he moved his hands away and raised in the air.

"Thud!

" her butt hit the muddy ground and she blinked as her mind was still not able to process what happened.

Just a second ago he was about to kiss her and now she was being thrown on the ground mercilessly! And her clothes had turned all dirty.

".....

" she raised her head and looked at the man with sheer anger as she gnashed her teeth.

"What?!! Didn't you say that you are fine and I should let you go! Now why are you the one to be angry when I have listened to you?

" he asked with a raised brow as if he could understand the reason for her sudden outburst!

"You! You!

" She was fuming so much that she was not even able to form a coherent sentence.

Even Martin blinked as he finally came back to his senses. He ran towards Evan and crouched on the floor as he looked at her with worry,

"Oh are you okay, Evangi?

" she blinked as she finally turned her eyes away from leo and looked at worried Martin.

She closed her eyes and took a deep breath as she decided to postpone her plan of throwing a stone on the head of the man for now and tried to squeeze a smile on her face,

"Oh! Yes. I am fine. After all, I was the one to ask him to let go!

" she replied through smashing teeth as her smile was worse than her baring teeth and glaring at leo.

He shook his head as he did not know what to say to both of them,

"Come let me help you!

" she nodded and he held her hands tightly in his hands as he pulled her up.

Leo's eyes narrowed on their entwined hands once again and he was going to take a step forwards and separate them when Evan let go of his hands and dusted her dress.

"Wow! You are strange my lord. But it did help Evangi in standing on her feet again!

" muttered Carl who was still thinking that she had injured her ankle before.

"Now, shall we go?

" Martin was not sure if they would start fighting while pulling each other's hair if they both did not stop glaring at each other that instant.

"Mmmm, let us go!

" 'before i die out of anger!' she muttered as she adjusted her dress and started walking towards the door followed by the two men.

She pulled the door and entered in when her nose filled with the warm smell of the food that was enchanting.

Her eyes instinctively went on the small table and her face sparkled. Forgetting all the resentment, she took hasty steps towards the table and sniffed again like a kid.

Aunt Martha, who was coming out of the kitchen with the last dish in her hand, chuckled when she looked at the antics of the girl.

"You are still like a kid! Who would believe that you are about to get married to Evangi!

" she shook her head and chided Evan, but her eyes were warm and full of pampering.

"I apologize aunt Martha but your food is so enticing that I can not stop myself. Do you need any help in the kitchen?

" asked the girl with an embarrassed face as she scratched the back of her neck but the lady shook her head.

"No, I am already done but what happened to your clothes dear? Did you have an accident on the way?

" she asked in a worried tone as she adjusted her glasses and tried to look closer to her dress which made Evan at loss of words,

"Oh, that! My lord threw Evangi on the ground.

"
