Trapped Married By Young Master - Chapter 118
“Couldn’t you just go away?” Evan hid his face in the creases of his already weak knees. While his hand clutched his chest which was already sore from being pierced by the wounds of the past.
“Didn’t we already agree that you would let me go? Then why change your mind again?” Luci tilted her head restlessly, wanted to ask Evan a lot of questions, one of which was what Evan was planning all this time
‘Whether Mr. Evan just wants to tease me or if he has other intentions, I’ll never know,’ she thought while watching Evan’s movements which were still curled up.
Evan was like a ball that had lost its gust due to a super-hard kick and landed in an opening full of thorns and sharp objects. There was no power for Evan to move freely at this point.
“I thought I just didn’t want to be alone,” Evan whispered as if he was choked up. His throat was parched with urgency from depression. His eyes stared at the darkness around his bent knees.
But at the end of the vision, he could still see Luci’s feet who were still wearing house slippers. Her feet should have come closer to Evan to offer to heal.
“You can come if you want. As long as you don’t make a fuss later.” It was the only option Luci had at the time. Because the choice to leave Evan in this place alone didn’t seem like something that could be done anymore.
On the other hand, Luci was happy because if Evan came along later, Luci would not have to kiss him if she came home late.
‘That seems to be the plan that benefits me the most at the moment,’ Luci thought happily.
Evan shook his head. He slowly looked up for a moment to observe Luci’s face, which was currently smiling slightly and nodding alone.
“I don’t like going to strange places. I dislike it.” The first time Evan went to a foreign place was when he looked for his mother’s whereabouts at the residence of his mother’s mistress. However, his mother dumped Evan at that time by not recognizing Evan as her son.
Then the second was when Evan vacationed on a foreign island that had just been opened with his first love. They both spent the night there. And when he woke up, Evan was left with an unclothed condition and a broken heart. From then on Evan would never go anywhere other than on a business trip.
Before going on a business trip, Evan would also ask one of his men to check out the unfamiliar place first. A detailed report on the unfamiliar place had to be given to Evan before he visited the place.
Luci’s flat was also a foreign place. But Evan wasn’t bothered by that.
“I just remembered something.” Evan had now really looked up and freed his head from the area where his knees were pressed together. “This is my third time in a foreign place. And this will be the third time I will be left alone in a foreign place.” Evan forced a wide smile, it was aimed at making himself look tough and strong. But in the end, Evan looks empty and suffering.
Luci couldn’t say anything else. ‘Is this one of his plans? What’s this? Why is he so pathetic?’ Luci thought.
Her feelings were almost shaky and couldn’t be held back anymore. Luci was on the verge of being on Evan’s side to discourage her from visiting Spider. Even though Luci finally got her powers back.
“The person who should pick me up hasn’t come yet, has he? Why are you so gloomy?” Luci came closer and shifted her body. Her hand reached out to touch Evan’s comfort.
A lot of time had passed, when Evan had drowned with his trauma. Since ten years ago Evan has refused to touch or be touched by women. But this time Luci was able to break the wall again.
Evan glanced at the back of Luci’s hand which was currently under his chin. “There’s no need to be so caring. I know you don’t even care about me a little bit.” Evan’s words just now were full of meaning.
‘Since when did he get this emotional?’ Luci thought.
Finally, she put her bag on the floor. Now Luci only provided a special space between herself and Evan.
“Want to tell me something?” Lucy smiled and had been looking for an opportunity to enter Evan’s personality further. The goal was to understand Evan better to avoid fights and conflicts. Luci did that so that this contract could be completed quickly and so that she could visit Spider today, without exploding Evan’s violent temper.
“Tell what?” short Evan. His face was still sulky and also childish.
“Anything.” Luci grabbed both of Evan’s hands and kept them in both of her arms. “Such as about your childhood, or your life for example.”
Evan was silent. It wasn’t that he didn’t want to tell it but that he didn’t know how to tell it. Talking about sensitive things full of emotions will not be able to be done by Evan because his soul is half-dead. So Evan is the type of person who finds it hard to say what’s on his mind even if he wants to.
Luci also looked for other ways to get Evan to talk. There are many cases where children find it difficult to tell what they have to tell. The reason is that the child is either too shy or too scared. Luci knows that Evan is not a child anymore, but it seems that Evan needs special treatment.
“What were your parents like when you were little?” asked Luci. Her hands still cupped Evan’s hands. Her thin mascara blinked gently and sweetly.
Evan was a little stunned at this point. “Ehem, fi-fine.” It wasn’t an honest answer and Luci knew it. Many people will say things have gone well to avoid telling them all the problems they have had so far.
“Is that so? So did you spend a lot of time with them as a child?” continued Luci. A smile was always etched on her lips.
“Erm, ye-yeah.” Evan slightly looked away to hide the lie in his eyes. Evan’s parents were very busy when he was little. His father rarely came home to take care of business, while his mother was busy chasing men because of the lack of affection from her husband. Meanwhile, Evan left alone was like living in a lonely condition.
No one asked how his school was, how his friends were, and how he was.
“You are quite happy then. And I like that.” Luci patted the back of Evan’s hand. It was a proud expression that Luci addressed to Evan.
“Why do you like the condition when I’m happy?” Evan asked. His eyes that had always been ruthless were now completely gone. All that was left were the lonely eyes that languished.
‘I know those eyes. And I know how it hurts to be lonely,’ Luci thought, sighed deeply, which she aimed at Evan’s life and her own.
“Because…because I just wanted to. During this time I never knew who my parents were. I never spent time with them. I’m lonely all the time. And it feels hard. I don’t want you to feel that way.” Luci smiled again, over and over again until she gave Evan a relentless sting of love. “So stay happy. Got it?”
Flowers of love bloomed and exploded in various corners of Evan’s heart. It felt like something was igniting one of the flowers to bloom. And that flower then ignites other flowers to bloom and blossom together. Evan’s heart was so warm at that time.
His face was advanced. His lips kissed Luci’s forehead softly and deeply. Then in an instant, Evan felt his heart fall too deep into Luci’s charm.
“You asked me to be happy. But now in fact I’ve fallen (in love). Then what should I do now?” Evan whispered to Luci. Once again he kissed the forehead of the girl in front of him.
