Chapter 182 - Abandoning His Wife

After all, the girl had come with their master and she would be their mistress later. He could not afford to offend her when he was just a small knight.

"There is nothing like that, my lady. I just bought a letter from the house of Grasitias. Lady Olivia is coming to meet his highness."

"........" she had heard once that enemies meet at the narrow road! Was this true in her case too? From Olivia to Aurora, the man was always surrounded by beautiful but vile women. 

She pity the woman who was really going to marry him! Being handsome was a problem too! His face was enough to create havoc in the noble society!

Leo's eyes turned cold as he read the paper and then a cold and merciless smirk formed on his face like a beast who was going to kill his enemy and shred him into pieces.

"Since she wants to help the knights and support the weaker section of the society then we should welcome her. 

Go and make a list of all the knights who did not have enough alms to pay their master and are still working as a page! We will help lady Olivia in her charity!" he replied with cold eyes but the smirk on his face did not falter.

The knights looked at Even with an embarrassed face. How could their master talk about another woman in front of his future wife? Whole empire knew how Olivia was crazy for their master, yet he was accepting her request to come today when he had brought Evan too.

Was it because the girl with him was not a noble but a commoner. The knight who was still a commer felt pity for Evan and unconsciously built a soft corner for her in his heart.

He would surely go and tell the other knights how their master was being cold towards their own future wife and entertaining other nobles just because she was a commoner,

"Is there anything else?" he asked in a cold voice as he looked at the knight staring at Evan. his frosty voice brought the knight back to his senses and he shook his head in a hurried manner.

"Then why are you still standing here?" asked Leo as he tilted his head and gazed at the man as if his gaze would be enough to freeze him to death.

"Nothing, my lord, I will be leaving now!" With that the knight hurried his footsteps and left the room with a bow.

Evan continued to look out without realising that her silence over the matter had helped her in winning new support from the knights and had created a sensational topic among the knights. They were cursing their master for the first time whom they had admired all their life.

When the knight left, Leo finally looked at Evan who was sitting there lost. Only then did he realise he was busy in his work all this time that he did not think about her.

He still did not know why he had brought her here, he just did not want to leave her anywhere closer to his aunt until she understands the situation well, not to forget that the family of aurora came to the palace to create a scene today. He just wanted to be assured that she was safe and sound if something like that happened.

But it did not mean that he wanted to bore her till death. But then he had no idea what she did at the palace to pass her time. Here only knights do the training or there was paper work about the bills of the knights of weaponry that was a bit confidential.

"Why don't you go and take a round and see what the knights do here?" He would still need an hour to complete the billing process and fix a budget so that the food and other necessary things could be purchased.

He had to finish it two days ago but he was not able to do so because of a wet girl standing in his room, taking all of his attention.

"Oh, you mean i can roam around and enjoy the scenery too.'' Though the view from the window was nice, it would be better to roam out in the woods. It was much better than the garden of the palace.

"Of course, if you need i can ask a knight to show you the whole place." he was about to pick up the bell and press it when she shook her head.

"No! I am fine by myself. I will just take a look and sit near the trees." she waved her hands hurriedly afraid that he would disturb a knight in his work.

She did not want to be burdensome and morver she did not know anyone here. So, she did not want to be nosy in their work.

She would just roam and look from afar. He raised a brow and looked at her hesitating face but nodded in the end. The whole place is covered with knights. What could happen here, even if she would walk alone!?

"Alright then tell me if you need anything or ask any knight. They had seen you coming with me so they would do their best in helping you." she nodded at his kind words as she felt that he was getting worried for her.

The thought brought a smile on her face as she nodded.

"Then shall I leave?" he looked at the papers in his hands with a sigh! He had to finish all of them before Olivia could come, so he nodded and waved his hands as if asking her to leave on while she chuckled and walked out of the room with a smile on her face but it was not able to be seen from the back where other knights were standing.

"Did you see that? Master even asked his future wife to leave so that he could spend good time with the daughter of the duke Grasitias."
