"Let me go! What made you think that an aide can touch me!" Aiden was stunned to see her cold eyes.
For a second ago when he had behaved professionally due to the presence of others, he felt that she was disappointed and upset.
He had felt guilty for hurting her and decided to wait for her here. When she came out staggering, he was so worried that he forgot the difference between their classes like before!
But now that he saw her cold eyes, he was speechless! Was everything in his imagination?
"I.. I apologize, my lady!" he let go of her and took a step back as he bowed his head.
"You better be!" without giving him a second glance she turned to leave.
But just as she truend, her cold eyes flickered and filled with unshed tears. Her resolve started to crumble and she felt her feet stumbling again!
Yet she clenched her hands into a fist and continued to walk without giving him a chance to help her.
She just has to let go! She did not need pity from anyone! She could feel his intense gaze on her back but she did not turn back.
In the end, even if he did not understand her then why would she beg for their love.
Dragging her exhausted body to the carriage, she left from there while Arden continued to stand there looking at the disappearing carriage as if it was not there at the first place.
After a long time, he walked away from there towards Leo's room.
He knocked on the door but did not get a reply even after a while. So, he knocked again and again but even after knocking many times, he did not get any reply!
A frown formed on his face as it never happened before!
"Master, I am coming in!" he informed and then waited for a few more seconds, but he still did not get any response, so he opened the door.
His eyes scanned the whole room with three deep lines on his forehead! What in the world happened!
"Where did the master go!?" He looked around but Leo was not there. The most surprising thing was, he was standing near the door all this time and he did not see Leo leaving from there.
Could it be that he was so lost that he did not notice him walking out! Scratching his head, he walked out of the room.
"Arden! I need your help. Can you come with me to the market? The lady needed these things urgently!" The sound of other knights took his attention and he nodded his head and went out with them, thinking the fresh air might help him in getting better.

Evan tossed again on her bed but sleep was nowhere in her eyes. She turned and stared at the ceiling with wonder!
Tomorrow she is going to get married! She would be the duchess of the house! She turned again as the thought stated to create current in her whole body!
Would she be able to handle the responsibilities!
Sigh! She was sure that she would not be able to sleep tonight!
Taking a deep breath, she stood up from the bed and opened the door just for an inch and peeked out!
A smile formed on her lips when she did not find any knight standing there! And opened the whole door with the thought of sneaking out!
But her eyes turned wide as four knights turned to look into her direction when the door was opened!
They all have a piece of meat in their hands. Apparently they were having their meal.
"Do you need anything, my lady!" one of them let go of the food and came towards her and bowed his head.
"That! I only need a glass of water!" with an embarrassed face she looked at him only to see him staring inside the room.
She followed his gaze only to find he was staring at the jug of water which was filled to the brim.
"The water had turned cold! I wanted a glass of hot water as I am feeling cold!" wiping the sweat from her forehead, she replied with an awkward smile and the knight nodded!
"I will get that right away. Is there anything else that you need, my lady!" he nodded as he did not ask anything about the glass further when she waved her hands in the air.
"No! That would not be needed! Since you are having your meals. I did not want to disturb. I will bring it on my own!" but just before she took a step further all of the knights stood up in a straight line and shook their heads.
"My lady, we apologize but lady Elizabeth had asked you to keep an eye on you tonight! She had told us we did not.. We did not let you sneak out to the room of the young lord.
And for that it would be better if we did not let you go out of your room!" though his face and voice was still blank, his ears turned red as he said so while Evan face turned red!
She flushed and bit her lips when she heard so. It would be a lie if she would say that she was not going to meet Leo!
"That is not the case, I was just! It is fine, i will manage with the cold water, you do not need to worry!" with that she closed the door with a thud and walked toward the jug.
Picking up the glass, she drank it in one swig yet she felt her body heating!
Fanning herself from her hands, she scanned the whole room to find something that would help her in distracting herself when her eyes fell on the balcony.
Should she jump out from there and go to meet him?
No! He had not even come once to ask her how she was! There must be knights guarding his door too!
"Sigh! Let it be! I will just try to sleep again!" With those words, she walked back towards the bed and slumped on it.
