Whereas it shocked Stephen to hear the shower sound, he was eager to see who dared to enter his room in his absence.
Eva unclipped her hair in the bathroom and wet it with water until droplets dripped from her hair. Before Stephen inquired and then attempted to forcefully open the door, it was conveniently unlocked, and Eva emerged from the washroom with wet hair, giving the impression that she had recently taken a shower. Upon observing Stephen's appearance, Eva experienced a sensation of numbness as he appeared even more captivating with a few of his shirt buttons undone. Eva understood well why her friends had dubbed him as a Greek god, so she averted her eyes from him.
Shocked and thrilled, Stephen had to blink his eyes to believe that he wasn't dreaming. He wiggled his eyebrows and looked at her
"What are you doing here in my room? That too this time? Don’t tell me you forgot the way to your room again.”
Eva was frightened, listening to his bitter tone, but she quickly made an excuse. “ No, it’s not like that., I was taking a shower here, as in my washroom there was no water supply. I don’t want to disturb Rose and William, and you were not present at home, so I thought I should use this washroom for a quick shower. I am sorry. I know I must have taken permission from you.
Stephen tries to understand first
What she was actually saying as she said all this in one breath. After getting her words, he noticed her appearance. She was wearing a charming Mickey print nightdress. The droplets of water were dampening her t-shirt, making it transparent. He could see her milky skin and her figure in that wet shirt.
Stephen took a deep breath to restrain his desires, as he currently yearns to kiss her pink lips passionately until she is breathless. However, his actions will only intensify her dislike towards him; thus, he must refrain from engaging in a physical relationship with her for the time being.
Despite Stephen's awareness of her dishonesty, the rationale behind her falsehood and her actions in his room primarily captured him. As a result, Stephen pretended temporarily to believe her.
“Ooh, ok, so if you want, I could leave; you can complete your shower peacefully."
“No, it’s not needed; I am done." Sorry to…
And thank you. “
Eva tried to move ahead of him, but a firm grip on her hand stopped her. Her stomach dropped in anxiety, fearing that he would scold her or may punish her, and worse, he would complain about this to his parents.
Eva turns to look at him. It shocked her to see that Stephen was standing there holding her clip, which must have fallen down. He smiled at her and forwarded the clip
Eva grabbed the clip quickly and rushed out of his room. Stephen kept staring at her, and he chuckled at the way she made a run out of his room.
Stephen enters the washroom for a shower. After completing his shower, he changes into his nightdress. He held the white bag and started checking out the dresses one by one. Stephen arranged the dresses properly on hangers, and then he opened the closet, which was locked. He hung the dresses along with the other dresses that he bought in the same way. He alwaysappreciates Eva’s choice in clothing, as she always preferred decent dresses.
While in the process of retrieving the last dress, an item accidentally descended onto the floor. His gaze fell upon the floor, and to his astonishment, he noticed the identical bracelet that Steve had presented to Eva, the very one she had adorned earlier in the day. However, he suddenly realized that Eva must have been responsible for her bracelet in the bag. The question was not how she came to know about this, but the fact remains that Eva is now aware of his interest in her.
Stephen grinned, looking at the bracelet and whispered, “now you know you are mine and I am going to get you soon.” “
Whereas the moment Eva reached in her room, she locked the door first and then slouched on the bed, sobbing badly She doesn’t know how to withstand with this news
She tried to recollect that when she actually tried to get Stephen’s attention, but she recalled nothing like that. Eva only tried to ignore Stephen, and the only emotion that she felt for him was fear. That’s all
It doesn’t matter what he feels for her, but one thing is for sure: Stephen smith is not the person whom she wished for getting entangled with
She checked the time and realized that her friends and her dad must be on their respective flights. So calling them is no help to her
Her eyes closed on their own, and she soon fell into a deep sleep.
The next morning, Eva wakes up to the loud sound of her alarm. She quickly switches it off, her head throbbing with pain. To get rid of it, she had a shower first. While getting ready in front of the cabinet, all last night’s events were making her more anxious.
she noticed the time and realized that Sara must have reached her home till now, so she called her
. The moment Sara picked up the call, Eva started sobbing badly
“What happened, Eva? Are you okay? You are scaring me, girl, Come on, tell me. “
“You were right, absolutely.”
“What are you talking about? Please tell me clearly."
“I found that bag in his room; what should I do now?’ And Dad also left me here for some more days. How will I manage now? Should I tell dad about this?"
