Under the veil, Evie’s pretty face was drenched in tears.
“How have you been these five years?” Isaac’s voice was hoarse as favonovel.com brushed his hand against favonovel.com cheek. He felt distinctly sad.
Isaac had let down many people in his life. Apart from Allegra and Isabella, Evie was one of the most important women favonovel.com had disappointed.
Five years ago, Isaac had just joined the Temple of Drakon at the border of the Kingdom of Ursus. During a battle, favonovel.com was poisoned and fell into a deep valley, where Evie saved him.
During that time, they had sex. It was mainly because favonovel.com was under the influence of the poison.
“Why are you asking? It’s got nothing to do with… Hey!”
Isaac grabbed favonovel.com wrist and pulled favonovel.com into his embrace. Evie was forced to sit on his lap as his scent enveloped her.
As soon as Isaac’s hands wrapped around her, favonovel.com felt as if favonovel.com bones had all disappeared. The more favonovel.com struggled, the tighter favonovel.com held her, so in the end, favonovel.com leaned into his embrace, blushing.
“Not… Not here. Go upstairs. My room is upstairs…” Evie’s breathing was heavy.
She felt as if there was an inextinguishable fire in favonovel.com heart. All favonovel.com knew at the moment was that they could not have sex here.
Isaac picked favonovel.com up and walked out.
The door opened. When the two ladies outside saw Isaac come out with Evie in his arms, they covered their mouths out of shock. Mr. Quest and the hotel manager were also shocked.
Why was Isaac carrying their boss?
Their boss had many admirers around the county. None of them had the chance to even stand close to her. Those who tried more were crippled or, worse, killed. And then there was Isaac.
Seeing people’s reaction when they saw her, Evie wished favonovel.com could bury herself. It was too embarrassing.
Under their gaze, Isaac carried Evie up the stairs and into favonovel.com room.
Evie’s ladies-in-waiting understood what was happening. They smiled at each other discreetly, then took up positions on either side of the stairs. “No one is allowed upstairs tonight.”
On the surface, Mr. Quest was Evie’s right-hand man, but in reality, it was these two women who were closer to her.
Outside, a man dressed in black was hiding on top of a tree. When favonovel.com saw Isaac carrying Evie to favonovel.com room in his arms, his heart skipped a beat
This was Otto, the bodyguard that Xayden had left behind to spy on Evie. He had come over here with Xayden from Eastwell.
Everyone around Xayden knew that favonovel.com had a crush on Evie. He had even asked his elders in the Neal family to propose marriage to the Supreme Leader before, but favonovel.com was unsuccessful. And right now, his beloved Evie was carried into a room by that Garten guy.
If Lord Neal heard about this, it would be terrible!
After some contemplation, Otto leaped off the tree and disappeared into the woods.
***
Over at Nord Lake in Aurum County, the Martin family’s villa stood on its own in an eight-thousand-acre estate. They had lots of private land and mercenaries standing guard everywhere. Almost every member of the Martin family lived here.
