Chapter 757 - 757: You Have Me

Avery's panic-stricken look came into Evan's eyes. The man in front was uncomfortably irritated.

"Proposal?" Evan rubbed his temple. He found this woman was more and more daring.

He had just heard her conversation with Maeve in his ear, or he would have been kept in the dark, thinking that it was so simple to cooperate with her. Didn't he expect that she would ask him to propose to Maeve?

Who agreed?

Avery stood awkwardly by the door, and she had expected him to lose his temper after knowing the truth.

But she had no other way. If she told Evan directly that she agreed to Maeve's request, he would not cooperate with her.

Avery cleared her throat and said, "There's still a week to go. Maybe you don't have to wait until then."

"Do you think Maeve is stupid?"

Avery shook her head, "No, but I'm not stupid either. I have my way."

Evan really wanted to cut her head to see where her ideas came from. He said in a warning tone, "I will never propose to other women."

Avery knew that he was definitely upset, and also knew that it's wrong to do so in order to achieve her goal. She bit her lower lip and said, "I will never let this happen."

Everything was a slow-down, though she knew it was a dangerous move.

She always seemed to like to take risks. It seemed that she won every time when she was in danger.

She thought about it and said, "If it doesn't get better by then, I don't mind if you send troops here though it'll be a tough fight."

Evan turned gentle when he saw Avery was no longer tough. This woman was really his nemesis.

His men should be almost in place in a week. He would rather send troops than propose to Maeve.

Before the war, it's all right for his woman to do anything as long as she was happy.

He would be in charge of the mess.

As Evan didn't speak for a long time, Avery knew he was not angry with her. With guilt, she held him and tiptoed to kiss him.

The moment their lips touched each other, there seemed to be an electric current that connected her heart to his. The current slowly passed between their lips and teeth.

Evan felt hot and suddenly deepened the kiss.

He didn't stop until Avery couldn't breathe. His thin lips rolled gently over her lower lip.

Avery imitated his actions and kissed him back as if only the kiss could ease their inner discomfort and struggle.

There was a knock at the door.

"Avery?" It's Maeve who finished answering the phone.

The sudden sound made Avery open her eyes wide. With her fists on his chest, she winked at him.

Maeve was here. She would guess something if Avery didn't respond.

When Avery was about to speak, she was kissed by Evan again. His kiss was so fierce that it made Avery felt he was taking revenge on her.

"Avery? Are you in there?" Maeve no longer knocked on the door but spun the doorknob. The door was locked.

"Miss. Black." At the door was the voice of a guard. Maeve called the guard.

"Kick the door open."

Avery pinched Evan's chest. He was not afraid of this kind of situation. He was not afraid they would really break-in. According to the law in Ancient Country, they would be charged.

Evan gasped and let go of her. Suddenly, he bit her in her neck.

A clear tooth print was immediately left.

Avery endured the pain, but still did not forget to answer the door, "I cannot go to the bathroom? What are you looking for?"

"So you are there. I'm worried about you. Did anything happen to you? By the way, do you know where Mr. Lautner is? The guards said he wasn't in his residence. They searched the entire presidential palace, and there was no sign of him. I remember that he came back with you."

Avery and Evan looked at each other. When Evan was about to speak, Avery reached out to cover his mouth, "I don't know where he is."

"If you don't know, then forget it. I'll order the servant to get a bottle of wine."

Avery did not speak and soon heard that Maeve was going away.

Evan's warm tongue licked her palm, which made her tremble.

Avery stared at him. The shadow of his curly eyelashes in the light fell on her hand. Avery could not help but want to grasp it.

Avery could not help saying, "Evan, I do not want to give you to any woman. You married me and wanted me. You should be mine in my lifetime. I want to stay with you all the time."

Because of her words, Evan raised his head and held the woman's face. When he found she was firm, he suddenly laughed.

"What are you laughing at?" Avery has always been passive. It is not easy to take the courage to tell him these. She was a little unhappy when he laughed.

She found herself uneasy. Before she proposed to him, she felt uncomfortable when she told him how she felt. What would she do when she proposed to him?

She started to wonder if she would screw it up.

"You are like a female soldier with strong determination and high spirit."

Avery was made fun of by him and wanted to push him away, but her hand was pressed by him, "I'll take your words."

From the moment he fell in love with her, he believed what she said.

"What if I flinch?"

"You have me."

"What if I screw it up?"

"You still have me."

"What if you get mad at me?"

"You can't get rid of me anyway."

Avery smiled and tiptoed to tell him something in his ear softly. Evan put his forehead against her forehead, "Keep your words."

Avery blushed and said with shyness, "I will."
