The knight shivered when Leo walked out of the carriage. They have never seen him this furious. Was he angry because they have disturbed the DEED!!!!!

They all broke into sweat as they thought about it. This was the first time they have seen their master this closer to a woman and yet the disturbed their precious moment. Their faces filled with fear and guilt as the color drained the body.

While Evangeline had a smirk on their face when she came out of the carriage. She had enjoyed it a lot when Leo looked at him with death glare but walked out of the carriage without uttering a single word.

He had taken her chance to start a new life, a chance to join the music class live with Miss Parker. Now she did not know what her future awaits when he would take her back to that cage.

Her smirk faded and she walked out of the carriage with a pale face. Her ankle had been badly hurt when she fell, so she was having trouble walking. So, she followed him limping and dragging her sore body as she rubbed her back area.

The knights gulped as they looked at the condition of the lady. The master must have been too rough with her to make her walk that way in such a short period of time.

“Do you need any help, my lady?” asked a young knight and Evangeline blinked. Shouldn’t they be angry at her since they had to search for her all over the town?

“If you are feeling sore, then you can rest in the carriage. We will bring your meal there.” offered the head of the knights with a kind smile that could hardly be seen on his face.

He has known Leo since he was a small child and they were like his family. He was afraid that Leo would not accept this forced marriage but now he was relieved and it made him more respectful towards the lady who changed his master’s mind.

Evangeline shook his head hard, afraid that they would force her to stay in the carriage. She had hardly got the chance to come out and look around. Maybe she still finds a chance to run away. Using the washroom this time would be a good choice!

“I am completely fine. Your master is a kind man, he treated me very nicely.” she added as she moved her hand which had marks on her wrists.

Though the mark was due to the scarf, the stray mind went further wild looking at the mark.

“Then, this way my lady.” they showed her the way as they exchanged glances while the head knight noted in his mind to report everything to his grace.

Instead of sitting on the table with Leo, Evangeline sat at the table farthest to him and he frowned.

“If you sit separately, then i would not pay for your food.” he told her mercilessly as she looked away.

“Give my silver back to me then.” she grumbled and he raised a brow.

“Yours! You have not earned them to call it yours. The silver came by selling the jewels of my sisters. It is you who owe us a diamond.” he added and her eyes widened.

‘Was he real! They were the ones who were kidnapping her again and again and yet he was the one who was asking for compensation.’

“You even need to pay for the expenses we had in searching for you.” he added when she continued to look at him with a stunned face.

“I have never asked you to follow me.” came her quick reply as she folded her hands in front of her chest and looked away.

“You are my future wife, so it is better that you learn some etiquettes, what kind of sitting posture is that?” He frowned as he saw her skirt riding up when she folded her one leg over the other and her breasts moved when she folded her hands.

“I will never marry you and I am not going to change even a bit.” she replied through gritted teeth. The way he was looking at her with disdain, this was the only reason she did not want to be the part of nobles.

“Alright, since you are that adamant, pay me the price of the jewel you sold and I will let you go. Or move her and sit with me. Otherwise I will call the knights and send you to the prison.” he said with a smirk on his face when he saw her face getting pale.

He had realized that she was scared of prison and believed that he would send her there for sure.

And as expected, she moved and sat in front of him.

Soon the food arrived and the eyes of the girl shone. She was eating only bread and milk in the inn to save money as she knew those inns are expensive. Looking at the meat and so many dishes she felt her mouth watering. She took a piece of steak and took a large sip of drink.

Leo frowned as he looked at the girl who was eating like she had seen food for the first time in her life.

“Use a fork and knife. What kind of way is this?” he asked as he took the napkin and put in her laps and then he took the plate from her and gave another empty plate to her.

“I do not know how to use them.” she lied, though she did not know the use of various spoons and other dish wares, she had eaten the food with fork and knife at her home and other small functions too. But the look on his face was incredible when she said that and finally she found a golden way to get rid of him and this marriage.

‘If only I can make this man feel disgusted with my every act… Then he would help me in breaking his forced marriage.”
