Evil Duke, Please Be Gentle!

Chapter 227 - Oh Jealousy 2

She took a disappointed sigh as she looked at Evan as if she had betrayed all of them and even Leo turned to look at her, hoping that she would deny any kind of involvement with the man.

"Aunt, even if i would have been unmarried, you know that his mother would never agree to it!"

As the words left her mouth, both men turned to look at her with dark eyes. Their gaze was so strong that she felt scared for a while as if they both would devour her soul.

"......" did it mean that she would have married him if his mother would have agreed to it! Same question formed in the minds of Leo and Martin but it had a completely opposite effect on their mood.

But looking at their gazes, the girl felt guilty. She had only said that to stop aunt from speaking about this matter further. She was feeling awkward listening to it. But who would have thought that both of them would take her words so seriously.

Luckily she had the food as her distraction.

"Aah, you even made the honey fruit pie. I just love it when you make it!" she muttered as her gaze fell on the table. 

She had decided in her heart that she was only going to concentrate on the food for the rest of the time.

Sneaking a glance to both of them who had also started looking at the food, she took a breath of relief!

"Mmm, of course, since this is your favorite. How could I not make it? But you better start with dishes instead of dessert!" aunt Martha scolded as she shook her head.

Then she turned to look at Leo, "why don't you try it. Though we did not have steak like you. I have caught the fish personally from the lake.'' She cut the fish into large pieces as she put the largest piece in the plate of Leo and then to Martin who nodded his head with a smile.

"Of course, i will eat a lot since i know that aunt make the best food.'' With that he took a bite and started eating but Leo only looked at the dish in his plate and then at Evan who had paid no heed to the warning on the aunt.

  When he picked up the fork to eat, he noticed that the girl had already sneaked and pulled the pie towards her and casted the fish and salad aside. 

She was almost drooling and her eyes were sparkling while looking at the dish. 

She picked up the knife to cut a large price for herself and looked proud that her aunt had still not noticed her stealing the dessert.

Her face turned blissful as the fragrance of the freshly baked pie wafted in her nose and her eyes closed with delight.

She let go of the fork she had picked from the table as she found it a hassle and then picked up the large piece from the tray and directly took it closer to her mouth.

However the dish was still too hot as the moment it touched her mouth. She put it back on the plate with widened eyes and blew out a couple of puffs of hot air. She had scalded her tongue as she took it out and took a swig of cold water from the glass beside her.

Putting the glass back, she picked up the pie again with determined eyes and blew air on it. Then touching it with her tiny finger, she confirmed the temperature and then took a small bite from the edge.

The flavor of sweet and sour fruits filled her mouth with the soft taste of cream and honey. Her taste buds shivered and pleasure was written all over her face. 

Her eyes were closed again and a small moan left her mouth as she took another small bite of the dish that made her feel blissful.

She was looking so adorable while eating it that even aunt did not feel the heart of taking the pie back from her and only shook her head at her childish behavior.

She didn't even notice that a bit of cream had stuck to her lips and flowed to her chin.

"Is it that good?" asked Carl and even Martin looked at the girl with a warm smile on his face. 

Evan stole a glance at the aunt but when noticed that she did not mind, she grinded and ate the bite in her mouth hurriedly and turned to Carl and nodded.

"Yes, it is just as I remembered. The best pie of the town!" with that she did not waste her time and took another bite hurriedly afraid that aunt would change her mood and would ask her to eat first.

But the grin on her face was so adorable that even Martin could not take his eyes away from her. She was the most innocent but at the same time real person around them who did not care about her image and did not look artificial. 

When his eyes fell on the cream, a smile formed on his face as he took out the napkin from his pocket with a pampering look on his face that seemed like an eyesore to Leo whose eyes narrowed on the napkin.

He lost all his rationality that moment and forgot where they were sitting as he burnt in jealousy.

And before Martin could raise his head, Leo held the chin of Evan and turned her head towards him. She felt the sudden pain on her chin and raised her head to glare at the man.

The girl frowned and was about to open her mouth to protest and ask what the matter was, he moved closer to her and before anyone could react, he brought his face just an inch away from her face. Then without even looking into her eyes. 

he took out his tongue with rapid speed, he licked all the cream from her lips and chin.
