Mister!A tear slipped down her eyes as the figure of the man who once saved her on the verge of death, appeared in her mind. She still couldn't believe that he was in the auction house where she was already placed like an item in front of the hungry eyes of the wealthy people ready to be sold. "No," She shook her head still finding It hard to believe that it was him. Nowadays, people do resembles others and even have their voices. Although should couldn't see who are new master was due to the net on her face, she still hope and wish deep down that it was the man who had saved her. "The owner of the item will have to head backstage to get the item!" The host announced as he wrote down some things and handed it over to his assistant who was behind him. After the assistant received the note from the host, he left the stage with Rosetta and soon after another girl was brought into stage. Her body was much more mature and will developed than the previous girls brought on stage. "The s
"Sir,"Her voice quivered as she called out to him, her body tense with emotion. A single tear spilled from her eye, leaving a glistening trail down her cheek. She tried to hold herself together, but the floodgates were already open, and her tears began to fall like a steady rain. Her shoulders shook with the effort of holding back the sobs that threatened to overtake her. And just as she was still in the middle of her tears, Evan reached forward and held her left arm, and on feeling her skin, he paused and sigh lightly."Do not cry." He said in a serious tone and Rosetta surprisingly stopped crying and glanced at him with red shit eyes. "You should be happy.""What?" She wanted to ask him what he meant but right at that moment her father stepped forward and grabbed Evan's shoulder. He didn't care to find out if the person before him was someone powerful or not, because all that he wanted to find out, was the relationship between his daughter and Evan."What do you think you are do
Evan lets out a heavy sigh, and then makes his way out of the inn, his steps heavy."Umm, is something wrong?" Rosetta asked as he stepped back outside to join her. He shook his head at her in negation."Come on, let's go somewhere else," he said and then led the way back towards his car parked right in front of the inn.They soon arrived at another inn."Go freshen up and change. I will go get you some food."Evan handed a shopping bag to her as he ended his words. The shopping bag contained some clothes they had stopped by at a shopping mall to get for Rosetta on their way to the inn.Evan left the room almost immediately. When he returned she was sitting on the bed drying her hair.Here, eat something," he said as he took out the takeout from the bag he was holding and opened it in front of her, even handing her the spoon.Rosette smiled lightly, and then started to eat. Evan moved towards a chair a few distance away from the bed and sat on it, watching her keenly as she ate."Are
"He is the murderer!"Evan turned back in confusion at these words only to see Rosetta's parents glaring at him with murderous intent. He couldn't help but furrow his eyes in confusion at them. How had they found him here? Had they been following him all along? What did they want?"What do you want?" he voiced out his thoughts and Rosette's mother charged towards him, halting when she neared him."You are a kidnapper, aren't you? You took our daughter!" She literally yelped and he couldn't help but curve his lips upwards in amusement. What was she going on about?"We should call the police immediately and let them know," Rosette's father chipped in.Evan smirked. Just what was wrong with these people? How come they were still being like this even after he had paid $100,000 for Rosette's freedom?Although he had bidded $20,000 to buy her, he had later changed his mind and instead paid $100,000 for her freedom. He had not bought her as his slave. He had bought her freedom instead. He
Evan's confused gaze regarded the bodyguard who had just let out the information about the culprit to the gathered crowd and then at the mayor. What could they possibly need? Why was Atalion there? His confusion heightens. Atalion turned to Evan, a smirk touching his lips when he sees the creases on Evan's face. The crowd filtered out. They spread out and gradually dispersed. The mayor turned to face Evan again, offering him a cocky grin. "Are you going to help me or not?"The mayor frowned and Evan hissed in return, scratching his jaw. The bodyguard walked up to the mayor. "Sir, you have a meeting in few minutes. You would be late."The mayor stepped closer to Evan. "Let's make this easy, shall we? Let's find somewhere for a quick discussion before I leave for my meeting."Evan frowns, wondering why the mayor would make such request from him. "Okay, then."Evan nods and the mayor turned to his bodyguard. "Prepare the car."The bodyguard nods and quickly moved to start the
After those words left Evan's lips. Atalion stared at the young man before him for a while and then sighed heavily as the realization of what he had said to Evan dawned on him. He adjusted nervously on his chair as a way to keep himself composed before the silent man before him. Evan on noticing Atalion's gaze smirked slightly as his head titled sideways."You appear to be angry about something," He muttered and then shook his head after, "It doesn't have anything to do with me. We already got a deal, right?" He asked and Atalion's head slowly moved up and down to a indicate a nod. "If that's all...I must excuse myself. I have something important to take care of," Evan said as he got up, ready to leave. "Wait,"Evan stopped slightly and then turned towards Atalion with a slight frown on his face. "We don't have a date yet," He took out something from his pocket and placed it on the table for Evan to see what it was. Evan's brows raised up slightly as a smile curled it's way towar
"Rosetta?" Evan called out softly, as right in front of him was a pale-faced girl standing before him with a knife tightly clenched in her hands."I don't want it," She cried out, shaking her head profusely. "I don't want to be called that again!" Evan's feet froze in place as he stared at her with confusion written all over his face. He wondered what might be going on in her mind at the moment."Put the knife away Rosetta. We can talk things out," He said softly as he slowly moved towards her. As she held the knife in her trembling hands, he stretched out his own, reaching for the weapon. All that played in his head was that Rosetta was about to do something stupid!His body moved towards her as he tried hard to show her that he didn't want to hurt her, and instead wanted the knife to be kept away from her. His gaze was piercing, his eyes intense and unblinking. Rosetta on the other hand didn't notice his actions. She shook her head for a while and wiped off the tears that blocked
“Not again" Evan frustrated yelled after realizing the probability of Dave acting out on his own again. One impatient soul!Evan's heart was filled with the anger and pain of how their development will be slowed down due to Dave's impatience after all! What was he thinking??He could have just waited for him to show up and they would burst into the place at once. At least two heads are better than one! What if he encounters danger and needs a backup plan.What was he going to look back to? Or how will he be able to communicate with Evan knowing fully well that that place is dangerous and they don't even know what they should be prepared for.Evan had no choice but to keep pressing on as he tried to walk in the same direction he believed Dave must have got to. He stomped on leave, stick, throne and a lot of disgusting things but what were those compared to his commitment at the time.He was still sneakily around when he heard a noise from afar. Instantly, he bent way low like a lizard
