Chapter 904 Ambiguity
Nia didn't expect Lauren to expose her intention so bluntly. The smile on her face froze for a few seconds before she recovered and said guiltily,
"I'm also sorry, but Eve used an unfamiliar number. I didn't even know it was her. You know that as a company operator, I always receive many calls with unknown intentions, so I didn't answer them." Lauren curled the corners of his lips, but there was no smile in his eyes.
If there hadn't been any verbal contact, would Eve's eyes have swollen like that that day?
Lauren simply ended the conversation in this way, and followed Eve's pace. Nia, who was languished in an instant, was embarrassed and kept wondering what was going on with this man? Everything he said and did was illogical.
"Mr. Osade, look how beautiful this bouquet is!" Seeing Lauren approaching, Eve pulled him to a hydrangea bush.
"Do you like it? Pick a few." Lauren said as a matter of cours. The speech did not involve civilized behavior, but about his idea that whatever he wanted, he will get it.
"How can I do that!" Eve shook her head quickly. "A flower can only bloom if it grows on the ground. If you pick it off, it will wither."
"If you like it, I'll make it into an eternal flower, so it won't wither." Lauren said lightly, completely unaware of the pampering he subconsciously gave Eve, and even gestured to reach out to pick off the flower. Eve was dumbfounded when she heard this, and could only open her hands to block Lauren's arms, shouting "don't pick", not paying attention to the fact that she looked like she was hugging him. Lauren's bad taste was drawn out by Eve's posture of protecting the flowers. He deliberately bent down to make Eve get closer to him, and stretched out his hand to pretend to pick the flower. "If you don't allow me to pick it, I must do so."
"No!" Eve thought Lauren was really going to pick the flower, so she put her arms around his waist and pushed forward, still yelling,
"It just can't be picked!"
Lauren actually withdrew his hand a long time ago, and now his attention was all on Eve, who had been unconsciously buried in his arms.
She was so small.
Seeing that the top of Eve's head barely reached the position of his chest, Lauren couldn't help showing a slight smile.
It was soft, though.NôvelDrama.Org: owner of this content.
Finding that there was no sound above her head, Eve seemed to finally realize what had happened. She suddenly looked up at Lauren, and instantly met his brown eyes, and for a moment, her face was on fire.
"Sor... sorry..." Hastily withdrawing from Lauren's embrace, Eve blushed with shame. Her heart was pounding, her ears were buzzing, and she apologized quickly.
"Sorry for what?" Lauren teased her deliberately.
"I'm sorry... I... I..." She said "I" several times, but Eve who was thin-skinned couldn't even say the words "I hugged you".
"Oh, is that so?" After speaking, Lauren stretched out his hand to embrace Eve, and with one movement, Eve successfully jumped to a place three meters away from her like a rabbit. Yo! Good bounce!
Lauren was in a great mood.
To others, Eve and Lauren acted like an intimate couple, but Nia knew they were not.
Seeing Lauren teasing Eve all the time, Nia didn't step forward to disturb them, but smiled with an inexplicable meaning, deliberately slowed down her pace and looked at them from a distance.
The morning tour ended like this. For lunch at noon, no one looked forward to it more than Nia. She enthusiastically took Lauren and Eve to a famous restaurant, and the three started a pleasant lunch. When it was called a pleasant lunch, it only meant that between Eve and Lauren, because Nia hadn't interjected anything.
Eve enthusiastically talked about every beautiful thing she saw just now, and her pair of big eyes were shining, as if she had seen the whole world. Nia buried her head in her food, and occasionally responded with a word. Obviously she was not as attentive as Lauren who was been listening to her.
"Nia, where are we going this afternoon?" Eve asked Nia after visiting Bouldercove Garden.
"We can go to Beaumar Mountain to have a look in the afternoon. The scenery there is good." Nia said.
"Go back," said Lauren after Nia replied.
"Why?" Eve and her sister looked at Lauren together and Eve asked suspiciously.
"You're almost exhausted, aren't you?" Lauren's words seemed indifferent, but his concern was self-evident.
"It's okay!" Eve said confidently, "I'm full now, and I can have fun until the afternoon."
Realizing that she should show the tenderness as her sister, Nia helped Lauren by saying,
"Mr. Osade is more careful. Eve, you really should go back and take a rest."
"Nia, I really don't need it!" Eve said decisively, "My physical strength is still enough, and the weather is so good today, so it's a pity to go back like this."
The smile on Eve's face was extremely bright, but a trace of sadness quietly rose in her heart. She wanted to go see more and spend more time with her sister while she was still able to run. Seeing that Eve was very excited, Lauren stopped insisting, but Nia added softly,
"Okay, but if you feel unwell, you should tell me right away, okay?"
"Yes!" Eve smiled happily.
After lunch, as agreed before, Nia took Eve and Lauren to Beaumar Mountain. This mountain was located in the west of the city. The mountain was beautiful and the trees were lush. People can hear the rustling of the branches when the breeze blew by. Its fame was due to a temple on the top of the mountain. It was said that as long as people prayed sincerely, the gods in the temple will realize the wishes of believers.
Hearing that there was a temple on the mountain, Eve, who was still sitting in the restaurant, was already eager to try. She had too many wishes to pray devoutly.
The car came to the edge of a rock, and it was time to walk from here, and it was not far from the temple. Eve was not afraid of getting tired, but started walking forward after getting off the car, chatting happily with her sister while walking.
Nia responded to Eve nonchalantly, but what she was thinking about was Lauren who was slowly following behind them, and her mind was full of intrigue. After they walked for nearly fifteen minutes, the solemn temple finally appeared in front of their eyes. Eve happily turned around and shouted to Lauren, "Mr. Osade, here we are."
Lauren nodded, and took advantage of his long legs to keep up with the sisters in just a few steps.
Having bought incenses next to the temple, Eve lit them devoutly, and sincerely knelt down in front of the worshiping god. Nia pretended to be her company, but there was no trace of sincerity in her heart. Lauren had a different belief, so he waited for them in front of the temple.
