"Tell me Evan, did you not know why I kissed you?

"

"……….

"

Her lips made a big

"O

" that even a whole boiled egg would fit at once and her eyes widened more than saucers.

Was she hallucinating now? Her hands moved instinctively and pinched his hands hard.

"Ouch!

" The man who was waiting patiently for her reply from the outside but a bundle of nerves from inside had thought so many of her positive and negative reactions but he had never expected that she would only pinch him in response!

His eyes narrowed and he glared at the girl who was going to pinch her again.

"Evan, have you lost your brain completely?

" had she lost her mental balance due to the sudden confession? Only this could be the reason for her foolish behavior. Now he had to spend his life with a crazy girl!

Feeling the chilly gaze from him, she finally came back to her senses and muttered softly,

"no! I was just checking that I was wide awake and it was not a dream!

"

"…….

" the nerves of his head popped open at her reply. Dont people normally pinch themselves when they want to check if they are awake or dreaming!!?

Taking a deep breath he was about to ask her again but she had already moved away from there.

Walking hastily towards the table she picked up the glasses and tried to sniff it as if she was a trained dog.

Could she not behave like a normal girl even when she gets a proposal?

He pinched the space between his eyes as he asked her in a low voice,

"What are you doing now?

" he should have bound her with a rope before proposing to her so that she did not run away here and there before giving him a reply.

Did she have any idea how difficult it was for him? If he had not been too agitated by seeing her cooking so happily for someone else. He was sure he would have stalled more.

Never in his life had he proposed to anyone but the girls were the one who had proposed to him. Now he knew how much anxiety it created. But the girl was busy playing when he was standing on needles here.

"My lord, I think someone has mixed another drug in your glass!

"

"……..

" did she think he kissed her because he was under the effect of the aphrodisiac!

"You seem to be talking strangely!

"

"……..

" he had only called her a fool!

"Even your eyes are looking strange. And look at your face! it is so red!

"

"……..

" his hands instinctively moved to his face as he touched it to find what she was talking about when he felt that it was very warm. But it was not because of illness, it was because he was nervous. But he was never going to accept it in front of her or she would tease him for the lifetime.

"You definitely need treatment!

"

"It is you who needs treatment!

" he retorted, but when he realized the stunned expressions on her face. He took a deep breath and tried to control his anger. Or this could kill her by making furious because he could take it a step further than kissing her!

"Evangeline Rosaador! I am neither under the effect of drugs nor have I gone mad. I am telling you that I like you and I know that you like me too! So, stop behaving like an insane and stop making me crazy too!

" and give me a response!

"See! I knew it! You are playing with me! Which man proposes to a girl like this?

" she put her both hands on her waist as she turned to look at him with knowing eyes.

"……

"

"I know this is a certain kind of trick! A man like you could not propose to a commoner like me whom he could never take as his equal!

" she continued with so much confidence that he felt at a loss of words.

It was true that he had tried to get rid of her but it was not because she was a commoner. He just did not want to marry so early. When had he shown a prejudice towards her?

"What are you even talking about? When have I not treated you well?!

" as the words left his mouth and a smirk formed on her lips, he knew that he had asked the wrong question.

"That was not prejudiced actions. That is the only way you would listen to me! And if you decide to marry me I promise I will give all my wealth to you!

"

"……..

" did he think she would accept it!

"I only wanted gold to run away from you. What would I do with the whole treasure if I am going to stay with you!

" She shook her head but her mind was still swirling over so many thoughts that she did not know how to deal with him.

But when she realized that he was not joking and seriously proposing to her, her heart was beating so fast that it could reach the sky!

But to think that she would marry a noble and bear the scornful gazes of all the notes for the lifetimes. She shuddered at that thought! It would make her life struggling!

When the girl was lost again in her thoughts and the words she used were analyzed, Leo's heart sank! He had thought that she liked him too. But then why was she not accepting his proposal?

He once again scanned her face but she was looking down at her feet and he was not able to see her eyes at all.

"Is that mean that you are rejecting my proposal? Is that your final decision?
