caught

Evelyn was resting when she hears a knock on the door, upon opening she found it is the butler .

"Miss, master has asked you to come for dinner." he politely said

"Oh, I am all ready to go" she is hungry anyway. So, she followed the butler. But along the way she kept thinking what could it be about. Did she get caught, but she did nothing wrong except trespassing their property, thinking this she calm herself down.

At the dining hall, Lu yichen looked up sensing another presence meeting her black eyes "sir" he gestured for her to seat across him.

After making sure, she settled down, he asked the butler to serve her breakfast. The butler following his order left them alone to do his duty.

Meanwhile, Evelyn's eye darted around the luxury yet modern living hall to avoid eye contact with him. Just as their eyes met, she felt fascinated in those blue eyeshet she felt seen through as if he has seen her all the from beginning and still he is accommodating her for God knows what reason.

While she is so engrossed in her thoughts, she heard clattering sound of plates thrown on the floor which gave her a scare that she sat up from the chair in defensive position. Sometimes, despite being alert and trained, when you are too deep in something, any small sound can make you react subconsciously specially when you are obviously not

And that is exactly what Lu yichen had planned to caught her off guarded. "You can hear" it was not a question it was his conviction to which he smirked for his successful plan.

Evelyn turned to look at him, she saw a slight curve of his lips that gives sweet yet evil kind of feeling, that dazzeled her as she forgot about her issue for a moment.

Lu yichen thought she will now reveal her motive and tried to harm him or try to escape but nothing like that happen. What he saw is obviously her dazzeled look staring so intently at him. She is actually quite adorable being unable to react as if thief has been caught for stealing which is amusing.

"So..." Though her reaction amused him, he still want his answer, so he made a voice in order to get her attention.

That voice successfully snapped her from her thoughts, as if finally getting aware her heart started beating rapidly 'now, what will happen'. It took her time to process that he know about her lies but as she had no solution she deliberately despite him knowing continued to play dumb. ' if he wants to chase me he can, at worst he will try harm me, not like I cannot protect myself ' having full confidence in herself she played deaf.

"I see, you have no intention to talk" he simply got no response.

" Did I ever tell you, I can kill you even if you have many ways"

"_____" no response

He let out a long sigh after not getting anything from her. Even he didn't know where he got his patience from today, otherwise if there was anyone else, he would have made him silent for real.

"Alright, I can give you a days time to analyze your story. Tomorrow, once I return, you have to answer me and DO NOT take my words lightly " he said finally loosing patience.

Finally he got response of her nodding her head just in time the butler arrived with dinner. Noticing the tense environment he quietly served the breakfast without making any sound.

When he just arrived he saw the girl nodding submissively, he actually pity this little girl but he cannot do anything as he is also scared for his life.

"Boss, I have something important.." loud voice from Leon who just arrived paused in the middle of his sentence when he saw another person present.

"Uhm, little mute you are also here" he muttered then he waved his hand exaggeratingly "oh hello!"

Seeing fool number one arrive, Evelyn is somewhat glad but somewhat worried, his arrival can be good but also bad. But she have to act innocent, so she also waved at him matching his enthusiasm despite disdaining his brain in her mind.

"Wow you are really pretty but you are too small, boss do you think she is minor"

"Let's go" seemingly impatient Lu yichen sat up from his chair and made his way towards his quarter.

"Master, aren't you going to eat" the butler stopped him. He was worried about his master's health as his meals were never regular.

"Send it to the study room" without looking back he said, then he continued walking.

"Uhh, what's about his bad mood, well he is always moody" not minding his Boss's attitude he just followed him but not after not waving at her " goodnight, I will see you tomorrow."

Evelyn just replied him back with smile seemingly to be on his good side. Though he is little stupid and a little fool but he is creative which could help her in the future and also it seems he holds a quite high position in here.

After everyone left, she hurriedly finished her breakfast which was turning cold and scurried to the room she is assigned to.

On reaching her room, she finally let out a long sigh. She actually was little scared back then after her lies got caught but she still dared to pretend is due to the fact that she is confident in terms of defense and also because she thought the man before her though seems dangerous, does not look unreasonable.

But if others hear her say he is not unreasonable, they would simply be in disbelief and probably would tell her all the incident when he acted unreasonably to convince her.

Evelyn, after driving her mind at speed of horse to think about the solution, felt to tired to think, so, she simply decide to sleep and think about it the day after.
