Chapter 14 - 14: Separate Bedrooms (1/2)
The male Bai's were reluctant to leave their precious flower with that 'beast' but they were pulled out by the ears by their wives saying 'She's already 26' 'She can take care of herself' and the likes.
Lillie was feeling helpless at this situation, she doesn't know what to do. Living in one roof with Ethan, with her enemy and rival.
All she can do right now is sigh, she's been sighing a lot lately. She's currently sitting on a sofa at the living room and across her is Ethan with a calm expression.
If one had extremely sharp eyes, unfortunately Lillie's too busy to notice, you can clearly see the joy glinting on Ethan.He's extremely happy, for the second time. The first is meeting her and when she talked to him.
”Would you like to talk about the living arrangements?” He volunteered to be the first one to talk.
Snapping out her thoughts, she stared directly in him. ”As I've already mentioned, we will have our own, separate, bedrooms. I believe you have already agree to this.” She emphasized.
”Your wish is my command.” Even though he was unwilling, he agreed just to ease 'some' of her wearies.
”Also, I forbid you to enter my room and make any unnecessary, physical contact with me, like what you did last time. Do that again and I'll swear I will have you on bars.”
”Yes, ma'am.” Ethan chuckled, this woman is using such formal words instead of using the direct word, couldn't she be any more cuter?
”I hope that you'll keep your words 'this time'. We can, as much as possible, be considered 'acquaintance' at this stage and try to get to know each other better. After all, this marriage is inevitable.” This time, Ethan was surprised that Lillie had the audacity to make this proposition.
She's right, their marriage is final and inevitable, they at least try to become friends. Because who would want to live with the person you hate? No one.
Well, to Ethan's case, it was one-sided.
”Unless one of us made an 'unforgivable' mistake.” She added. Ethan raised his sharp eyebrow in slight confusion.
