Chapter 117 - 26 (2/2)
While Lilybella was squealing in romantic affections, Daniel was sporting a complicated expression. Watching his ex-girlfriend kissing another man was kind of awkward and cause his irritation to spike. If in the past, he was not clear about Evangeline's feelings for him, now he was very sure that she didn't like him that much.
For a year that they had been together, she only allowed him a kiss on the cheek and forehead. However, it was not even a month she and Eric had been together, and they were already on the verge of m.a.k.i.n.g. .l.o.v.e inside a f.u.c.k.i.n.g Ferris wheel.
Pointing a finger on her chin, Lilybella's excited and fl.u.s.tered face turned to one of envy.
”How nice . . . Teacher must be so happy.” Her eyes then flicked forward, zeroing on Daniel.
Snorting, Daniel retracted his gaze and shifted his head. ”Stop staring, and don't move too much. The cart is rocking with your unnecessary movements.”
”Ehehehe.” Lilybella responded with a giggle before she said with shining eyes, ”Your Highness, Lilybella wants a kiss too.”
”No,” Daniel replied.
”Ehhh . . . but Lilybella is his Highness fiancée.”
”No.”
Lilybella didn't give up and persisted. ”Then, just in the cheeks will do.”
”No.”
”In the forehead?”
”No.”
”How about on the hands?”
”No.”
”My b.r.e.a.s.ts?”
”Damn, no!”
Puffing her cheeks, Lilybella didn't show any sign of stopping and continued to persist until their cart slowed and stopped.
Sighing in relief, Daniel got out from the cart while Lilybella's face was thick with disappointment.
”Mooo . . . Your Highness is really . . .” Her downcast face broke in a creepy grin as her head swayed side to side. ”Ehehehe. His Highness is really shy. Kya!”
The moment the four of them were reunited, Daniel peeked at his watched and asked, ”Are you guys hungry?”
”Oh! Oh! Is it time for snacks?! Then Lilybella want a toasted cheesy munchy and fries and a double patty big mac with extra cheese! Like dripping with them!” Lilybella said in an instant.
Eric and Evangeline glanced at each other before the former asked, ”Eve, what would you like?”
”Anything that doesn't contain carbs will do, Eric,” Evangeline answered.
”. . . Uhmm . . . I'll try my best to find some salad and fruits for you then,” Eric said, unsure of what to get her.
Once they jutted down the two girl's orders, Eric and Daniel left, leaving Lilybella and Evangeline behind at the nearby bench.
Minutes passed, and Lilybella was still happily having a one-sided conversation with herself while Evangeline waited for Eric and Daniel to return. Another more minutes passed before Evangeline felt her dress being tugged.
”Teacher. Teacher. Look.”
Turning to where Lilybella was pointing, Evangeline saw an ancient dilapidated building with a vast 'Horror House' carved in blood plastered on its signboard and a long queue of people in its entrance.
��Teacher, that horror house is a popular attraction here. It's terrifying.” In contrast with what she was saying, Lilybella's face, however, was all smiles, showing her crook canines.
”Lilybella heard it's a perfect place for couples to develop their relationship. The girl will go all, 'Kya!' And the boy will be like, 'don't worry, I'm here. I won't let anything happen to you.' And the girl will jump in the boy's arms and weep, 'I'm scared,'” Lilybella narrated, complete with exaggerated expressions and hand movements.
”It's the perfect place to be intimate with the perfect excuse of being scared to hug your partner!” Then her excitement died down. ”And so Lilybella heard.”
Evangeline rolled her eyes, sneering. ”What's so good about that? Only hormonal teenagers would think disgusting thoughts like that. It's ridiculous how they think they needed the excuse of fear to be intimate. Only cowards and pathetic people would do that.”
”What are you two discussing about?”
Daniel and Eric returned not long after, holding a bunch of snacks in their hands.
”Eric!” Evangeline trotted to Eric's side. Snaking her arms around his, she slurred, ”Eric, I heard the Horror house is a top attraction here. I want to check it out.”
And before Eric could reply, Evangeline dragged him towards the line of people in front of the Horror house.
Lilybella blinked before she ran after Evangeline and Eric. ”Teacher, wait for us!”
She then stopped and ran back to Daniel's side and snatched the food in his hands and bowed. ”Thank you for the food.” She then bolted after Eric and Evangeline.
”. . .”
Rooted in his spot, Daniel took a moment before he could react again. Head snapping towards the sky. He sighed before he strode to where the others are.
