Steve got numb as he never expected this coming, whereas Stephen’s body got stiff, and he glared at Richard with red eyes. Steve was observing the change in Stephen’s body language.
“I know you must be thinking why I chose her. Well, first we both share the same interests and same profession too. I’ll already think that I will name my next restaurant in her name and you know she will manage that solely. “
Stephen’s grip on the paperweight was getting more firm listening to Richards’s words
Whereas Steve focused his eyes on Stephen, he could feel the rage in his eyes.
He realized Richard was playing with fire
Whereas Richard was narrating his fake love interest with a fake blush on his cheeks
know, then I decided on my honeymoon plans, too. I will take her to a beach destination where she loves swimming. Rose told me, so I will let her decide the place. Imagine how the view will be when Eva and I will enjoy it.”.
Within a flash of movement, Stephen lunged at Richard and pinned him to a nearby wall
“Nothing is going to happen like this; trust me, if you utter a single word about Eva in this way, I will not mind slitting your throat. “
Steve rushed to hold on to Stephen. He held Stephen firm by his waist and was trying to pull him away from Richard. Soon he got successful in pulling Stephen
Richard rubbed his throat and then started coughing
“. Why are you doing this? I mean, what is your problem if I like Eva?”
The moment Richard uttered her name, Stephen pushed Steve and again got hold of Richard’s collar
“Because she is mine. Eva Johnson is the only love. I will allow no one to even think about Eva and will make sure that she will have feelings for me and only me.”
Steve got numb, whereas Richard removed Stephen’s hold and settled on his seat
“Steve, I hope now you believe in my words and see how much he is in love with Eva. Bloody as****. He is ready to kill me for his love.“
It shocked Stephen to see his changed personality as he was now busy removing the creases
“What the hell is going on here?”
“Your love confession, sweetheart, “Richard replied with a smile
"Shut up, you fool. Steve, you tell me, ‘
“He is right; I was not believing in his gossip, so he..." Steve narrated it all
Stephen again reached to Richard and tried to punch him but Richard dodged his punch
“So Eva Johnson, hmm?" Richard teased Stephen
Stephen rubbed his temples in frustration, as he didn’t want to declare his love. For now, he needed to win Eva’s heart first
Steve was in shock, then he was excited and then his face got rigid
“This is not fair; you must have told us, “Steve complained
Stephen knew that there was no going back now, so he started, “I first wanted to win her over, then I am going to talk to mom and dad after getting her consent for this relationship."
“And how are you planning to do that?” Richard inquired
“That I don’t know,she asked, as she is too scared of me.”
Stephen narrated all the incidents when he tried to get close to her."
