"She is coming with me, not you!" the face of William turned ashen when he noticed that Edward had reached there.
"Knights, hold him and put him in prison!" although he ordered loudly before the knights could move and hold the old man, Evan moved and stood in front of her father.
Her cold eyes swept past the face of every knight who stopped in their tracks and stared at each other not sure what to do.
"Evangeline, you did not know what he had done. His intentions are not good towards you!" staring at the ashen face of his father, Leo spoke through gritted teeth.
But Evan just scoffed. She did not even turn to look at him.
"He is the one who brought me up and nurtured me all these years. If he wanted to hurt me, he would have done that long ago!
Not only have you all lied to me that my father is dead, you have hunted him and tried to kill him. And you still have the courage to blame him!
I am already struggling to forgive you all. Do not make it more difficult for me!" Her cold words were filled with disappointment and anger.
Leo knitted his brows when he felt the anger in her words yet he could not be mad at him.
"I will not let you go! If anyone wants to stay with you then I will arrange his abode too." his eyes flickered with dark light when he stared at the man who was hiding behind the girl
But his eyes were filled with evil glint and there was a smirk on his face. As if he was challenging Leo to get rid of him now.
"Did you hear that! You are coming in with me and your so-called father could follow you! I will arrange a room for him too!" Evan almost spit blood at his arrogance.
She had clearly called them murderers yet he was asking her to stay. Was he even hearing her! Her body trembled with rage as she glared at Leo but he was unperturbed.
"No! I will leave!" taking a deep breath, she turned to leave but before she could take even a single step, he held her hands and pulled her towards him.
The impact was strong enough for her to end up in his arms and without any hesitation he held her closely.
"What are you doing, let me go?" She tried to struggle but her strength was nothing in front of Leo who had a smirk on his face as if he was enjoying the struggles.
Gritting her teeth, she used her heels and placed them on his feet but he still had a smile on his face as if he was enjoying the pain that infuriated her further.
"I am sure he would agree. Since he had nowhere to take you!
Why don't you just ask him before getting so riled up!"
"Leonardo is right. We have nowhere to go. Since my properties are taken by the royal family.
Let us stay for a week until I find some place for both of us to stay!" with a pitiful look on his face, Edward came forward, and held her shoulders as he bowed his head and squeezed out a tear from his eyes.
Leo's grip on his waist tightened! He was having a hard time controlling his anger. If only he could beat him to death.
"See! Now that the matter has been solved. Shall we go in?" with a smug look on his face, he pulled her back into the palace.
When he crossed his father who was still standing silently and looked at the whole scene as if he was just a spectator, their eyes met but without comforting him or saying a word, he continued to drag Evan back into the room.
"Let me go, I can walk by myself!" she continued to struggle while punching his chest and side from her other hand. But he did not budge.
Edward who was smirking with the way she was fighting! He must have known in the end, she was still his daughter.
Why was he trying so hard to convince others. He should have manipulated her from the start!
Finally the fool has some value! His mind had already started making plans on how to deal with her later.
He was sure that not only he would get the title of noble but he would also get wealth as much as he wanted.
"Eli, take her to her room. Serve her meal and let her rest. Make sure that she did not get distrubed by anyone even if you have to lock the room for that!" all the maids flinched but Eli nodded immediately.
She held the hands of Evan and dragged her before Edward could stop them.
"What did it mean?" she hollered, but there was no one to listen to her pleas.
"Evangeline, wait!"
"Dally, show him the room. He must be tired too. So serve him the special meal of the palace and since he needs rest, lock his room too and assign two knights so that he does not face any kind of danger!`` Edward's eyes widened, he had thought that he would take advantage of the situation and once Evan would be taken away, he would discuss the terms and conditions but they have not even asked him anything.
"Wait! I am not tired. Do you not want to ask me for anything?" His voice was full of bewilderment.
But before he could ask anything else, he got a fright from the icy cold stare of Leo and stumbled backward.
"We have sufficient time to do so! For now go and rest, you have covered a long journey to reach here.
And who knows your next journey would even take you to heaven!"
"What are you saying brother, won't this man go to hell?" asked Eve with a snort and then all three of them started to chuckle.
"I wish we could know that! Anyways, go and enjoy your special meal!"
"............."
