"That is too dull!" Evan shook her head as she looked at the clothes he was holding in his hand but he just rolled his eyes.
"I am not going to stay for long anyway." he said in an indifferent tone but she pursued her lips.
Leo had always been so particular about his clothes in the past. A look of elegance and nobility came out from his clothes.
"But.." she did not like that he had picked up a plain white shirt with black pants that he usually wears for the party too.
"But what?" he asked back with a raised brow, "i look handsome even when i wear rags!" he said that with a look of arrogance on his face yet she could not refute it.
His hair that was falling on his forehead after the bath and his flushed face due to the warm water made him look so tempting that she licked her lips.
The white see through shirt was accentuating his strong chest and taut muscles.
The way it clung to his thin waist, his figure was available to feast for every woman there. Only the thought was enough to leave a sour taste in her mouth.
"You are certainly not leaving without a coat!" she announced as she stood up from her seat and opened their small closet and rummaged through it.
She took out the new coat she had purchased for him when he had returned home. That was the last piece of clothing that he had.
Her hands paused for a second before picking it up and passing it to him.
"Here, you are going to wear it!" she announced in a tone that would not take no as an answer when he ran a hand in his hair instead of comparing them well.
"I have kept it for the day our daughter will take birth" he said with a frown. Not liking the idea of wearing his special clothes on the occasion he didn't care about.
Ethan had offered help so many times but Leo shook his head and rejected it each time.
He did not take the money for the treatment of William too, saying he was earning well enough.
And he was! He earned a handsome pay as the head of the knights but due to continued treatment of William and Evan and maintaining a personal batch of knights for protecting his family, he was draining the amount earlier than he was earning.
And he wanted to keep a good amount saved for their daughter so that she could buy anything she wanted without hearing the budget ever in her life.
She would be his little princess! How could he let her suffer for a meager money.
Evan could read his thoughts and sighed. She felt like she was to blame. She could have taken a better decision and asked Ethan to throw Hannah out instead of leaving their own house.
She had heard the rumor that Hannah was out of the room and once again living with Ethan as his lover and sighed.
"You can always wear the coat again. It is not going to shrink or spoil at once. Since you are not going to stay for long, you can come soon and take it off." she could not believe that she needed to explain all this to this god who looked at her seriously.
Leo analyzed her words seriously in his mind and only nodded when he heard the last line.
"Yes, I will be back soon as I will give the gift to her." he repeated when she shook her head with a helpless look on her face.
She was sure that he would not have thought so much before going to war the more he was getting reluctant to go to Olivia's place.
She came closer while holding the coat and then helped her in wearing it.
He forwarded his hands like an obedient kid when she dressed him up in the coat and adjusted his collar.
She kissed his neck since she reached only that high and sighed as if he was a mountain while she was a small hill bringing a chuckle on his face.
He held her hands and then dragged her to the bed.
Where he sat and then pulled her between his legs, making sure that her belly did not get suffocated.
"Now! Is it fine?" he asked as his head only reached her bosom where he leaned and felt blessed.
She picked up the comb from the corner of the bed and started combing his hair that he never liked.
Most of the time, he just ran his hands until he felt that his hair was settled.
"Arden is like your brother!" she said in a soft voice, her face was glowing with motherly glow these days, but he did not raise his head to look at her.
The touch of her skin felt so warm, so good as if she was a soft blanket covering all his pain and problems,
"He is struggling to get approval of the duke Grasitias! If you will help him by saying a few words to the duke or offer him that you are continuing to support Arden, if he gets married to Olivia, then it would be beneficial for them.`` She took a step back and then stared at him.
His hair was set well and his dress looks perfect now. She took out the gem from her necklace and then set it as a brock on his coat and then nodded her head.
"I expect that you will never disappoint the ones that have followed you for the shallow reason to come back early. I have Reynold and others protecting me." she smiled when he sighed and closed his eyes.
He could never outwin her when she looked at him with puppy eyes.
"Alright, I will come back as soon as I meet Duke and support Arden but then Olivia can forget her gift and meet me! I will come back soon."
