Chapter 82 - The Strong Urge For Survival And The Will To Escape! (1/2)

Ch-81

Eleanor, who was sleeping, felt something strange on the bed. She doesn't know why but she felt like she needed to open.

She fluttered and opened her eyes slowly. But the moment she opened her eyes, she saw Cedric was too close to her to the point that he wanted to kiss her. Her green eyes widened in shock as she stared at him. Not knowing what to do she closed her eyes immediately. Cedric felt embarrassed at his actions. He got up from the bed making the bed rise, letting Eleanor know that he was no longer on the bed.

Eleanor who closed her eyes felt flustered. Her heart was thudding against her ribcage. She could feel butterflies fluttering in her stomach.

[I didn't brush my teeth. Doesn't he care about my bad breath? What if he stops kissing me when he smells my bad breath? Ahhh!!! I am so pissed! Sigh…]  she couldn't help but let her thoughts run wild.

Sigh… why was God so cruel?

Sobs…

Sad life.

Even kissing was getting hard these days.

But she felt disappointed when she felt the rise of the bed. Sigh… if he didn't kiss her, she would kiss him!

Hmph!

Why should a man take initiative all the time? Even a woman could take an initiative!

Opening her eyes she saw Cedric disappeared already. She could hear the sound of the flush of the bathroom.

She decided to take the guest bathroom. Picking her clothes she went there to freshen up. She sneaked inside the guest room and washed up there in a half an hour. After she was done… She was almost caught by the butler Eric. But luckily she escaped. By the time she returned to her room, she saw Cedric blowing his hair all dressed up with the clothes that he wore at night.

”Come, I will blow dry your hair,” Cedric offered.

Eleanor didn't reject it. She let him dry her hair. She doesn't know why but she felt an immense feeling of joy. Her heart was at ease. Suddenly she felt like the whole room was filled with pink bubbles and it was extremely romantic. She doesn't know whether he was feeling romantic or not. But she could feel it's romantic.

They both were immersed in their pink world as they cherished their moments with each other.

*knock* *knock*

What!?

”I will get the door,” Cedric said, feeling enchanted by his enchantress beauty. He didn't even think about what he was doing.

Eleanor was stunned when she heard some knocking on the door. But adding to her problems… this guy Cedric was saying he would take the door! How imprudent! How troublesome! How stupid!

She wanted to lock him and hit him with the leather belt but remembering it's her house. She swallowed her anger. If there was someone who bloated like a balloon by swallowing the belly full of anger, then it would be Eleanor. She would even make the Guinness book of records in that category.

She dragged Cedric back into her room holding the back of his collar. ”Stupid! Hide under the bed! I will take care of you after I return!” Eleanor whispered and yelled at him.

She was so angry to the point that she could burn a house with the fire inside her stomach.

Cedric shivered at her voice. God! This was going to be hard. He needs to escape! Fuck!

As if Eleanor could read his thoughts she pushed him under the bed and kicked him as if she was a warning.

”Second Lady, breakfast is ready,” Butler Eric said.

”I will come in ten minutes,” she said.

Eric nodded and was about to leave.

”Uncle, Can you get me a feather duster or big stick or a belt?” Eleanor asked, making him blink his eyes.

”Why?” he asked, feeling confused.

”Ah that… There is a rat in my room. I want to deal with it,” Eleanor said.

”I will do that for you, Young Lady,” he offered.

”I will do that myself, Uncle. It annoyed me early in the morning,” Eleanor said.

”Fine,” Eric said with a sigh.

What!?

He agreed so easily!

Cedric was sweating buckets when he heard that. Dammit! Can he escape now!
