Chapter 273 - Have To Do

"Alright, you are not a kid anymore so stop acting like one!

" Eli patted the shoulder of Eve as she shook her head. Eve did not grow up a bit even if it had been years.

"Sigh! Go and have your work! You do not spend time with me at all these days!

" Eve puffed her cheeks as she looked at the other side while crossing her hands in front of her chest and acting like a spoiled kid.

But from her heart she was waiting for ELi to leave. It was already too late, the rays of sun had already filled the whole world.

She had to leave before it was too late!

"Hmm, I think so too. So, how is it that we spend the whole day together for today?

" Eli scanned the face of her sister to see the reaction just to be sure again but she was blank, though there was no panic on her face, she was not happy with it either.

"Are you not happy about it?

" her eyes narrowed as she looked at Eve with scanning eyes like a predator looking for its prey.

"No! I am just worried about you! Are you sure you have so much time?

Or how about we both go to your office and work there? That way we'll be together and your work will not be hindered too.

" Eli's eyes are filled with surprise but then soften!

What was she even thinking by testing her again and again!?

"That would be perfect! I would love to have free labor of yours so that I could boss you around!

" Eve covered her mouth with both of her hands and faked shock and they both chuckled together later.

"Alright, come to my office in half an hour. We will work together!

" Eli stood up and finally left with satisfaction on her face.

Once Eli turned and left, the smile on the face of Eve was replaced with worry.

"Lily, I think my sister has doubts about me. You know what you have to do right!?

" the girl squirmed when her name was taken and her face turned pale.

"Then it is more important that we stop doing that, my lady! I have already told you many times that the result would be too severe if we were to be found out by the royal family!

" the girl pleaded. She was scared out of her wits that she did not know how to handle them!

"You are thinking too much! For now, just follow my orders. You know what you have to do right?

" asked Eve in a commanding voice this time that lily flinched and bowed her head.

"Yes! My lady. I will leave this instant!

" Finally Eve nodded with a smile as she saw Lily leaving from there.

"Do not worry, I will find a way once the father comes back!

" she muttered to herself more than to others as she looked at the distance with tired eyes.

In the office,

"My lord! You are so great that I am sure you can work on these files alone too!

" Evan continued to praise Leo as she passed all the files back to him and grinned like a Cheshire cat.

"grrrrr!

"

Leo, who had just opened his mouth, closed it abruptly. Not because she had passed all the work to him but because of the sound in the background.

She truly was a pig! Had she not eaten breakfast?! Now her stomach was rumbling again. Though angry, he still let go of the matter and pressed the bell of the office.

"My lord!

" a young boy opened the door within seconds while Even though he was calling the man for some work.

She did not pay much heed to it and started working on the file in her hands again.

"Ask the coachman to prepare the carriage, we will go out for lunch!

" since she had liked the inn of that old painter. He had thought it would be a good idea to take her there again.

There might be a chance that he would find a good opportunity to propose to her too. He would make the perfect environment so she would not be able to deny him.

The young boy bowed her head and left when Evan raised her head and looked at the man with confusion! She did not have dinner well since he had started to get angry but did he not finish his meals too!

Hadn't he gone to meet the marquis? There was no way that the man did not offer meals to him! She was still looking at him with confusion when she noticed that his ears had turned red and she blinked.

What made the frozen prince embarrassed that his body had a blush!

She felt like she had to gossip about it with someone but she did not know whom!

"Why are you staring at me? Did you not want to have a meal?

" oblivious to her thoughts, he did not like the way she was staring at him.

It made her conscious of his image and his heartbeat increased. He didn't even understand why he was getting nervous just by her gaze on him.

"Why are we going out for lunch? I have heard that there is a small canteen in the office too!

" a frown formed on his lips when he heard that! Here he was thinking of taking her out to the best place of the town while she wanted to share the meal with all the staff in the small room even when she was behind ill treatment by them.

"And why would we do that?

" he asked with disdain when she muttered,

"So that we can save money and time!
