Divine Emperor of Death Chapter 36
Chapter 36
Davis could see that she didn't immediately answer and was currently hesitating on her decision . Else, she would have openly said that she didn't like this engagement or that she would willingly marry him .
'Looks like she is forced too . Oh, but I'm not opposed to this anymore either . So it's not 'too' anymore' Davis sighed .
"There is no need to decide so soon, Miss Evelynn . I can see some hesitation in your eyes . But the sooner you make your decision, the better it is for your reputation . " Davis calmly said .
Evelynn couldn't believe her ears . This little boy didn't take a liking to her and decided to let the engagement go just like that? Or did he consider her feelings and said that? She couldn't guess which one was it .
"Then I bid you farewell, Miss Evelynn . " Davis had no choice but to leave after creating this awkward atmosphere . He wanted to escape from further embarra.s.sment as soon as possible .
Ellia watched followed him closely while she watched him in admiration . She didn't forget the 'experience' she had with him yesterday . It turned her view of the world upside down . She could even get into a grave trouble by playing a game with him?
'What else has the Prince has in store for me?' She very much looked forward to it .
She wasn't the one to give up easily . But if this was her fate, to live as a maid till she dies, then she will her life to the fullest as a maid rather than try to break free from it, only to die early by betraying the Royal Family .
After the Prince left . Evelynn had a complex feeling in her heart .
"Interesting" She muttered with a wide smile on her lips . If Davis had saw that then he would've probably kidnapped her to make her his first wife .
"Young Mistress, the Prince is just a little kid for now . So what he says will have no effect on the marriage . Please give up any thoughts of backing out . " George said warily . He had to report this to the Cauldon Family Head as quickly as possible .
"Miss! Wasn't that your chance?" Maisy muttered over Evelynn's ears . Evelynn stayed silent .
Evelynn felt mildly confused, she felt like she couldn't make a decision anymore . She didn't have any lovers or such people in her life . Since she was engaged to the Prince, no one dared to woo her openly either . So she didn't have much experience interacting with the opposite s.e.x .
Davis was deep in thought after getting into the carriage .
'Still, what is this feeling? I feel like I just gave her amnesty, pardoned her from her fate with a single sentence of mine . Is this how people at the top of the power hierarchy feel? No wonder they are so hungry for more power and authority . Even I feel like I can get drunk on it . ' He shook his head sighed .
He thought that he had enough of his first day out in the Royal Capital . The moment he met Evelynn, he was satisfied for the day . So he ordered the carriage driver to return to the Royal Castle .
He talked with Renard for some time till they arrived at the Royal Castle . After that, he straight away went into the Study .
After making himself comfortable, he thought that he should continue to develop Eliia's personality as well . After yesterday she was a little open to him . Now is a perfect moment to break her sh.e.l.l since the effects of yesterday were still there .
"So Ellia, what do you think about Miss Evelynn?" Davis asked .
"Me? I think she is very beautiful and is perfectly matches with the Prince . Truly a match made in heaven . " Ellia shook her head and sighed in admiration .
He glared at her . "Tell your true thoughts . "
"Erm . . She is too much of an independent and proud women, I don't think that she will agree to be your concubine . " Ellia puffed and replied .
"That's what I thought too . "
Suddenly, Davis stood in front of her face . Ellia froze realizing that their heads were too close .
Davis looked into her eyes deeply .
'What? What is this? Is he going to do it now?'
*Badump* *Badump*
Ellia's heart beat like a young maiden . She could feel his deep gaze, and it felt like her heart was going to explode . She couldn't bear his gaze, so she closed her eyes and waited for it to end .
She waited and waited for what it felt like a long time but nothing happened . She slowly opened her eyes only to see Davis seated on his bed, looking a little disappointed .
'Why is the Prince disappointed, was it because I didn't k… kiss him?' Ellia thought .
"Ellia . " Davis's voice was tranquil .
"Y . . Yes?" Ellia was truly nervous .
"Why didn't you push me back?" Davis asked a stupid question .
"Push? How can I? There's no way I can do that, I am your maid, Master! In other words, your slave!" She let out her angry emotions . What did he even expect from his servant?
There was a moment of silence
"Did I buy you?" Davis asked calmly .
" . . No" She thought and answered .
"Did I ever say that you were my slave?" He stood up .
"No . " He never did call her that .
"Did I ever say that you were my maid?" Davis walked towards her .
" . . No . " Thinking of it, he never even treated her like that .
"Then why are you degrading yourself?" He stood in front of Ellia .
"I…" She couldn't think clearly anymore . Her thoughts were jumbled .
Suddenly she felt warm arms envelop her body in an embrace . She didn't know why but she felt warm and secure in that embrace .
"Become my friend!" Davis suddenly asked .
"I . . I can't" She had tears in her eyes . Something felt like breaking in her head .
"Call me Davis!"
"No…" Ellia felt like something was stuck in her throat, she tried to get it out .
"Call me Davis . " Davis repeated, he was not giving up after coming this far .
"Davis!" She finally had her inferiority complex break .
"Again!" Davis smiled, he happily said .
"Davis!"
"Again!"
"Davis! Davis! Davis!" Tears were running down her eyes while she had a smile on her face .
'Yes, why am I degrading myself when the person I serve, doesn't even look at me like a servant . Am I looking down on myself? Have I truly given up? Have I lost something?"
"You, Ellia, have unofficially become my friend . " Davis let go of her and happily said with a grin on his face . He didn' think that he would be able to change her mentality so soon .
'She must be a very strong minded girl . ' He thought .
"Hmm . . " She bit her lips and nodded her head .
At that moment, a thought sprouted in her head which made her heart flutter .
