Chapter 49
"Waa! Davis, you dummy… . . " Ellia pouted and made a crying face .
"Hehe, I'm sorry, I won't do it next time . So? Did anything happen?" Davis chuckled . He was not at all feeling sorry but enjoyed bullying her .
"Other than you scaring the life out of me, nothing important happened . " Ellia glared .
"I see, keep up the good work . " Davis patted her head .
Ellia evaded his gaze while still pouting .
"Right, practice those Battle Techniques now and also whenever you have the time . "
"Hmm . . "
… . .
The following three days, Davis stayed at the Royal Castle to avoid suspicion during the day and went to the South Gate to spot Harman at night . Unfortunately, Harman still didn't come .
Davis guessed that he was probably on his way, so he wasn't impatient .
Today was the fourth day . He planned to visit Evelynn few days ago, so he sent word to the Cauldon Family two days ago .
This time, he was accompanied by Ellia and the same elite royal guards who accompanied him last time .
Davis arrived at the Cauldon Family Manor which he tried to infiltrate four days ago . His goal was to make contact with Evelynn and somehow tell her to meet him at night . He knew that he and Evelynn will not be able to talk to heart's content when surrounded by people, so he wanted her to meet him alone .
He got off the carriage only to be greeted by a whole crowd of people who shouted .
"We warmly welcome and pay our respects to the Prince!" The whole crowd bowed .
Davis was flabbergasted . He was again reminded that he was a person of high status .
"Raise your heads . " Davis said with a calm face, he felt a little awkward but didn't let it show on his face .
"Such bearings… . "
"Truly a son of heaven . . . "
"So cute . . . "
Various murmurs echoed around, but it only made Davis want to hide in a hole .
'I only just acted…' He thought ruefully .
"Welcome Prince Davis, my name is Henry Cauldon, an Elder of the family . Let me show you around the Cauldon Family Manor . "
"Alright . " Hands behind his back, holding his head straight, Davis replied .
He then followed Henry while Ellia and Renard followed him .
They arrived at a hall where many people were gathered . Many had looks of excitement while some were gazing at him calmly .
Davis didn't take heed to any of the reactions, he just sat down on a chair without greeting anybody here . Ellia and Renard stood behind him .
Some people narrowed their eyes, yet they couldn't possibly question the Prince, can they?
"Let me get to the point, I announced two days ago that I will personally visit Cauldon Family, but my purpose here was to meet Miss Evelynn . So, where is she?" Davis scanned around and adopted an arrogant young master attitude .
Hearing that, some people were overjoyed while some others frowned .
The people who were happy were all Elders . They thought that the Prince was finally smitten with the beauty of their Young Mistress . They were afraid since a year ago when the prince said it was fine for her to back out of the marriage, especially after a year passed with no news of the royal family saying anything about it . But, it now looked like there was no need to think like that .
All who frowned were young . They didn't seem to like the tone of the haughty prince . Even though their family were using Evelynn like a tradable item, she was still immensely beautiful . So some of them were obviously jealous about giving her to him as a concubine even though they don't have a chance to be with the Young Mistress of their family to begin with .
"Haha, the Prince is sure eager to meet our Young Mistress . " A random elder shook his head .
"She will be here soon, no need to fret, Prince Davis" An old woman added, who was also an elder .
Davis nodded his head . He thought that he needed to look forceful and arrogant, otherwise people wouldn't seriously consider his words, especially looking at his age .
A group of people suddenly clamored . Everyone turned around their head to see a beautiful women walking towards them followed by a maidservant .
Davis's jaw almost dropped . 'Damn! What a vixen!'
Evelynn looked like an enchantress with her seductive figure, she wore bright purple sleeveless cheongsam which accentuated her curves . Her cleavage was slightly visible as a triangular shaped cut was present in her dress . Her long green hair reached till her waist, and had her side hair tied up in a small bun behind her head .
Davis stood up and arrived in front of her to greet her .
"I hope you've been well, Miss Evelynn" He clasped his hands .
"Prince Davis is too caring, I've been well from the time you left after seeing me . " Bowing her head slightly, Evelynn responded with an indifferent voice .
"Haha, I see . " Davis chucked awkwardly .
'Hmm?The way she said it, there seems to be a hidden meaning behind it' He thought .
After that everyone took their seats on a dining table respectively .
Davis and Evelynn were seated opposite to each other on the same table . There was a huge feast prepared for everyone to munch on .
"Miss Evelynn, today I came here to see you especially . " Seeing that it was silent, he started the conversation .
"See me? You flatter me Prince Davis . " She replied indifferently .
"Yes, truth be told . I thought of you many times after that day we last met . " Davis told the truth as he did think about her from time to time .
'Those peaks *cough*, that beautiful face and her seductive voice… . '
"Haha, the prince sure can joke around . " Evelynn rolled her eyes as she said indifferently .
Davis made a wry face . His probing was done . He now knew that he somehow made this woman angry . Time passed as these two finished eating in this awkward atmosphere . No one disturbed them but they were just listening to their conversation silently .
'Eh . . ? Even an idiot can tell that she is angry with something . Did I offend her? When did I do that?' Davis thought ruefully .
