Lover Forced The Ruler

Chapter 23. Sun Imperial's

“Who will break up?” Kennard who had just entered the kitchen approached the two and pulled on Lisle's arm, stopping his movement about to wash the dishes. “Let David take care of it. You're coming with me. Soon we will arrive at Sun Imperial.”

Lisle looked at David as if feeling guilty. A young master washes dishes?

“It’s Okay.” David seemed to understand Lisle's way of thinking. He's used to being treated like a babu by Kennard.

“Sorry.” Lisle hurried to Kennard's step outside the room.

Sun Imperial is a bustling port city as well as an astounding tourist spot. A city with a beautiful beach and a bay on the other side makes people come from all over the country. All sorts of businesses flourished. Lisle had not expected to be able to see and set foot in this city.

They walk on the beach on a clear day. Lisle was so happy that she didn't realize Kennard was watching her. He ran around like a child while carrying his shoes along the white sandy beach. Play around in the shallow sea water until the ends of her dress get wet. Lisle seemed to have forgotten who she came to there with today.

One day he suddenly remembered. Lisle stopped and turned around at Kennard. The man seemed to be walking leisurely as both hands were put into his pants pocket. His short-sleeved white shirt fluttered in the sea breeze.

The sight made Lisle complain. Just a moment ago he forgot that this person had brought him to this beautiful beach. He did not ask anything but resumed his steps with a downcast look, no longer as happy as before. There was a sudden sadness. He recalled his current position, someone who was bought.

“Hey!” Up ahead from a distance, among a group of people, a voice called out. There was a hand waving at them. As Lisle took a closer look, it turned out that the one calling was David.

David ran to them. “You guys anywhere? It's almost lunch. How about we find a restaurant near here.”

Then a girl in blue approached. Her body is beautiful. Blonde and blue-eyed. As soon as he arrived, he immediately hugged David's arm. “Darling, who is this handsome guy and pretty girl. Are they your friends?”

But Kennard doesn't seem to like the situation. He grabbed Lisle's arm and said coldly, “You guys just go first. We have our own purpose. Come, honey!”

David just smiled wryly hearing it. The blue-eyed girl next to him was still unaware that she was the one stirring up Kennard's dislike. His eyes did not blink watching the tall man who was leaving them. Although his hand held the handsome young master, but he thought Kennard was more charming.

Lisle had a chance to look back, feeling uneasy leaving the two people behind. David who saw her waved his hand and smiled. In the back there it turns out Nathan and Benjamin are also holding two foreign girls. Lisle turned to look at Kennard who was stepping quickly beside her.

“Why don't we go with them alone?” tanyakanya.

“You like those girls? You want to hang out with them?” Kennard asked back.

“No. It's not. Just not delicious. They ‘kan your friends.”

“There's a souvenir shop over there. Do you want to take a look?” Kennard switched the conversation.

Near a crowded restaurant, several shops lined up selling various souvenirs. Kennard invites Lisle into a larger store.

Inside there are not many. But his goods filled shelves and storefronts. Even the walls of the store are covered in unique trinkets. Lislet looked astonished as she looked at each storefront. His neck felt sore as it was unceasingly moving around the room. There are a wide variety of bags, shoes, hats, accessories and other items that are made skillfully hand-made.

“Take what you like,” Kennard said as the girl looked to be just looking around without daring to touch.

Kennard nodded. “Which one do you want?” he asked while looking down at the display case that showed off the stone bracelets.

“I want to buy it for Celine and Daisy. I'll take three. Not expensive, kok!” Lisle pointed at a model bracelet.

Kennard's eyebrows are wrinkled. Not only because of the kind of item Lisle wanted but also because the girl was alluding to the price. Since when does a Kennard care about price. Especially for something this small. But Kennard didn't say anything about it.

“There are others?” Kennard said as he gestured to the shopkeeper to pick up the item in question.

Lisle. “That's it.”

Kennard took out a wide-brimmed hat and put it on Lisle's head in vain. “This one is also.” He said while giving his card to the waiter for payment.

After receiving the purchased item, Kennard took Lisle to the restaurant next to the store. While waiting for the order, Lisle seemed to open the package of goods that had been purchased. He took one of the bracelets and tried to wear it on his wrist. Kennard noticed Lisle's behavior that seemed very happy with such a simple thing. When Lisle noticed Kennard's gaze, she blushed.

“This is very beautiful,” she said slowly. His face looked down at the colorful bracelet.

“Iya. Very pretty.” Kennard assented to the other object in front of him. Lisle's radiant face with a red tinge was more admirable than even the most expensive jewelry.

Lisle raised her face. “I-will pay for it later.”

There's a dark shadow on Kennard's face. This girl is that stupid? Does he think a Kent lord is so calculating?

***

They all returned to the ship after dinner at a restaurant serving a variety of seafood. It was a frenzied dinner. Kennard's three friends took the girls Lisle saw this afternoon. Kennard doesn't seem to talk much. He only occasionally said something to Lisle who was sitting next to him and did not respond to the foreign girls who occasionally invited him to speak.

Lisle herself felt awkward with the atmosphere around the dining table. Nathan occasionally brought the face closer to the girl next to him. Whispering each other. David most often throws seduction words that make his interlocutor blush. But Benjamin looked calmer. It was the girl next to him who could not remain silent. He often talked while trying to touch anything he could expect from the man's burly body.

Kennard could sense that Lisle did not like the sight. “If you have finished eating we go straight home.”

Lisle nodded. He also did not respond too much when one of the girls tried to talk to him. Only recite occasionally.

The three couples were still engrossed in conversation when Kennard interrupted. “We go home first. You guys have fun.” He said with a smile filled with cunning.

David had sensed that something was not right about to happen to them but because the blue eyes constantly rubbed themselves into the man's body like a spoiled cat, he became less focused. So he only looked at the passing of the two at a glance with a blank mind.
