Trapped Married By Young Master - Chapter 77
They had finished eating. Sorry, Evan had finished eating while Luci finished munching on her low-calorie snack. Now they were both silent for a while at the dining table.
“So are you ready to discuss our contract?” Luci asked hopefully and anxiously. Until now she had not received any clarity at all. Even the check, worth two hundred million rupiahs, she didn’t dare to cash yet because she still didn’t get any clarity about the cooperation with Evan.
He didn’t want to answer for a while. He leaned back on the chair and rubbed his stomach which was already filled with food. He was like a pregnant woman in his position.
“You can talk to John.” Evan got up to leave. He searched for her room to sleep there immediately.
“If you don’t hire me, I’m fine.” Luci chirped from afar. She cleared the dining table and washed the dishes. After that, she returned to the living room. But how shocked he was to see there was no one else there. He’s gone.
At first, Luci thought Evan left the kitchen because he wanted to go relax in the living room. But he didn’t.
“Mister Evan? Sir?” Luci called. But no answer.
Luci checked on the door. Who knew, Evan had already left and gone home. But the door was still stuck. She went to her room, and how shocked she was when she saw Evan already sitting on her bed and holding her picture with Daniel. The figure was even Luci kept in the drawer. He must have rummaged through his drawers.
“Please pay attention to your limits!” Luci took the picture of hers and Daniel’s. Inside the figure was a photo of her and Daniel holding hands. The reason she hid the photo was that she didn’t want Tedy and Hans to know that she still had a photo of herself and Daniel.
She did have to look strong. She didn’t want to look down, even though people could tell easily when she was down.
“What limitation? It’s just an ordinary photo, not a sexy photo of yours.” Evan said curtly and lay his body on the bed comfortably.
“Ok, forget about figures! Now let’s talk about where you should sleep!” Luci crossed her arms in annoyance.
He didn’t respond at all. He even had his eyes closed now. Wasn’t it unhealthy to sleep after eating a heavy meal?
“Mister, you must sleep on the sofa!” Luci tried to pull Evan to his feet, but he didn’t want to. He still insisted on sleeping on the bed.
“Mister Evan!” She then jerked his hand which had just pulled her. After a few minutes, she tried to push him away, she finally gave up and found a big failure. He didn’t want to get out of bed.
“You should respect women. But look what you’re doing now! Are you a man?” Luci asked, very annoyed.
Hearing his sexuality being questioned made Evan quickly open his eyes. He looked at Luci sharply.
“I am the king, you must serve me!” He was still loyal to the statement that he is king and must be served. He thought a rich man like him could get whatever he wanted in this country.
“This is where I live. If you’re a man then relent and move to the couch!” Luci ordered while pointing at the door to her room.
“If I’m a man then I will impregnate you tonight!” Evan then sat down and started grinning. Of course, he was just joking, but Luci seemed to take those words seriously.
As a result, her guts shrunk for a moment.
“I’ll just sleep on the couch. Your orders are my duty, Your Majesty!” Luci retreated like an obedient lady-in-waiting. She then disappeared behind the door.
With a sneer, Luci sat on the sofa. But because she wasn’t sleepy, she chose to turn on the TV. There was a ghost investigation event at that time.
Meanwhile, Evan, who was trying to sleep in Luci’s room, couldn’t close his eyes. Usually, he sleeps using a bolster, but in her room, there were no rolls at all. There were no dolls either.
He then did a night exercise so that he quickly tired and fell asleep, but still failed. Finally, he chose to go out to get some water because he was thirsty. Seeing that she had not fallen asleep and was watching TV instead, he joined her. Moreover, there was already cold drinking water on the table that she had just taken.
“You have not fallen asleep yet?” Luci asked. She shifted her body as Evan sat on the sofa as well.
Evan shook his head. “No bolsters in your room,” he answered honestly. But it sounded different to Luci. She thought he wanted to take her to bed the same way he did this afternoon. She also inched away to the edge of the sofa.
“What are you doing? Do you think I’ll touch you? No way! You’re not my type.” Evan snorted then watched TV. Whereas previously he was stealing glances at her.
Luci rolled her eyes. The ghost investigation program began. Evan, who was most afraid of horror-related things, jumped onto her lap in shock after hearing the back sound of a woman’s laughter from the TV.
“Whoa! Ghosts, there are ghosts!” Evan even hugged Luci and hid his face in fear. If the woman’s giggles were heard he would scream again.
“It’s TV, it’s just a TV show. Mr. Evans!” Luci tried to explain but Evan’s screams were louder than her voice. After three minutes had passed, the back sound stopped and he walked away as if nothing had happened.
“Why didn’t you say it was the voice from the TV? Did you use the opportunity in the narrowness to touch my body?” Evan accused, matter-of-factly.
Hearing his unreasonable accusations had made her sigh very bored.
‘I already reminded him of that. but his scream beats even a woman,’ Luci thought. But she chose not to speak her mind.
They were caught in their thoughts. Luci thought how much Evan liked to blame people, while Evan thought how stupid his behavior was.
“Ahem, so you don’t want to talk about our contract?” Evan asked. He was just making a diversion so his stupid behavior wouldn’t keep ringing in his head.
“I’d like to if you don’t mind.” Luci smiled cheerfully. There was finally a bright spot for her work tonight.
“Ahem, fine but before that, you have to tell me what my grandmother said to you when she came here this afternoon.” Evan lifted his head. When he heard the giggles of the woman on the TV he whimpered again. After it was gone, he grabbed the remote and switched the channel to an action movie.
‘Problem solved,’ Evan thought.
“I hesitate to tell you, sir. But it seems that Grand Lady misunderstood our relationship.” Luci fiddled with her fingers restlessly.
“You mean?” Evan asked.
“She seemed to think we had a serious relationship until she asked me to marry you soon,” Luci muttered.
“What?” Evan gasped and stared in disbelief.
