Chapter 245: That Bast...
Evangeline came to the conference room, early in the morning, anxious to get the meeting over with. After an entire night of tossing and turning, she had finally woken up and decided that she was going to go to Lucifer and find out what it was that he wanted to confess.
Whatever ulterior motives he’d had for coming onto her had been overshadowed by his feelings for her. Even if a minute percentage of those feelings that she had felt from him during their time together were real, then they would have something to build on. And if his reasons were something like money or fame or even her title, she somehow felt that she would try to overlook them.
She would have dashed away from Estania early in the morning if not for this meeting. Truth be told, she was also curious about this husband of Eleanora’s. She’d been tempted to look him up on the search engine but then let it go. If, like her father wanted, and they came to be sisters in the future, then this man would be her brother-in-law.
All she knew was that Eleanora had been in love with her husband and the man loved her back crazily. It had been difficult for her father to hold off that man for so many months. She just hoped that he would not create more trouble for her father in the future.
Soon, Eleanora walked in with her father and Evangeline smiled at the two of them. Since this was a secret meeting, there was no need to pretend to be enemies.
With a smile, she stood up and greeted her father first and then Eleanora. She felt a strange stiffness from Eleanora but then chalked it to wariness. After all, she too was wary of Eleanora’s motives, now or in the future.
Alexander smiled at the girls, before nodding," For all the world, today’s meeting is going to be an attempt by me to reconcile the differences between the two of you. We will be touring the labyrinth of mazes for this. And the person in our meeting is also going to be joining us there."
Both Eleanora and Evangeline nodded as they started to head out for the maze. Nora curbed her excitement wanting to reveal the truth only after she had seen Lucien. It would be a surprise for him as well as these two people beside her.
As they circled the maze, passing through the different hedges, both the girls were lost in their thoughts while Alexander tried to keep a steady stream of conversation.
