Lover Forced The Ruler

Chapter 41. Back to Palm Garden

“What sir hasn't come home yet?” lisle asked while sitting on the living room sofa.

“Numbered, Miss. Maybe you still have a lot of work,” replied Thomas. He stood a bit confused facing Lisle's photmal-looking attitude.  “Maybe Miss would like to take a shower first and rest for a while in the room. I'll prepare dinner for Miss.”

“No need, Thomas. I don't want to eat. I'll just wait here until master gets home.” Although it was only breakfast this morning, but it felt like Lisle would not be able to swallow anything. Right now he was so nervous about imagining a meeting with Mr. Kent, thinking what could he say to the man in order to stop his attack on the Caldwell family.

“Ah, Miss. Maybe you will be long. After eating, Miss can wait for master in the room.”.

“Let's just here. I'm it's okay. And I don't want to eat either.” Lisle persisted with her stance.

Thomas only sighed hearing Lisle's words. He finally came back to do something.

Several times Lisle almost fell asleep on that cold sofa. He saw the clock on his phone was past eleven o'clock at night. His feelings became more nervous. Previously Thomas had delivered coffee and snacks but not the slightest touch by Lisle.

The clock on his phone was close to the number twelve, when the sound of the car stopped outside. Lisle suddenly tensed up. He held his body and waited.

Thomas opened the door in a hurry. A person very familiar to Lisle stepped in and stopped in the living room. Kennard looked at Lisle with a mocking smile. The girl had never seen a smile more terrifying than the one she was seeing now.

“Mr...” Lisle stood up as soon as Kennard got there. He doesn't know what to call. He felt it was inappropriate to call this man by his name directly. Today the situation is different.

“”Hm, you came too.” Kennard gave his cold gaze. “Why? Just a day back. Doesn't it make you happy out there?” He did not like the ‘tuan’ call that came out of the girl's lips but he did not say anything about it.

Though you know why I came back, inner Lisle, but did not dare to voice it in front of this man. Look eyes! Thomas's right, Kennard's like he's gonna blow up all the time. He was like a time bomb until the time came to destroy everything.

“I... I will do whatever you want.... But please, don't disturb the Caldwell family..” Lisle pleaded.

“What is your relationship with them until you care so much?” Kennard is upset that Lisle has asked him not to bother Ralph Caldwell and his family. Who is this guy that deserves to be defended by this girl? “You like that guy?” ask Kennard to investigate.

“No! It's not! I just don't want anyone to get hurt because of me.... I... I will feel very guilty..” Lisle tried to deny the allegations.  He used to love Ralph, but now he has no feelings.

“You're so naive. You try to help others while helping yourself you are not able,” Kennard said in a mocking tone. “What can you do for me?”

“What's.” Lisle. His head felt dizzy with the definition of ‘anything’ he just said. “ I'll follow said Sir. I'll stay here..”.

Kennard didn't know why he was so angry at this girl but couldn't even vent his anger. Looking at that pretty face that looked frightened lowered its head, the man felt a little pity. He had never been too harsh on this girl, but this time he really could not help himself. This girl's refusal to stay with him makes Kennard want to destroy everything around him.

“Then, we negotiate this in the room. I want to see what you can do for me.” Kennard got up and walked up the stairs to the top floor.

Negotiate this in the room? It felt like now not only dizzy, Lisle's gaze began to spin. Maybe I'll pass out soon, Lisle thought.

“Nona.” Thomas called out, resuscitating Lisle who was like drowning thinking of something. “It's better Miss quickly ascend before master changes his mind.”

Lisle. Kennard had reached the door of the room on the second floor. His towering figure looked always charming from any angle. Lisle's head felt heavier.

The girl got up from where she stood to catch up with the man. But his gaze suddenly darkened and his body was limp. Lisle lost consciousness and couldn't help but slash her body onto the floor.

***

Kennard stood by the bed, watching Lisle who looked like a slumbering baby. It was just that his white face looked pale. He doesn't look well. The doctor examined him and said nothing serious. The bruise on the side of his head was also only a minor injury that did no harm.

"So the lady refused me a dinner offer. Maybe an empty stomach is also the cause of Miss fainting... " Thomas told me.

Kennard did not respond to Thomas's explanation. His face looked grim. Lisle returns feeling guilty, thinking of herself as causing the Caldwell family's company to collapse. This girl, she thought with her return, would make Kennard let Ralph go. Though the reason for the return of Lisle who wanted to help the man even made Kennard more upset. It's just that the girl's sincerity makes Kennard finally contact Steve with his cell phone.

"I want you to take care of the investors who have withdrawn their funds from Caldwell's company. Give also some replacement projects from those that have been canceled. I want everything back as soon as possible...."

Steve across there had not had time to answer when the connection was switched off. The assistant still could not believe his hearing. Mr. Kent never withdrew his death sentence on anyone.

Lisle's eyelids twitched then opened. His head was painful on one side. He tried to get up but Thomas was arrested.

"Miss, slowly. Miss, you better not get up yet." Thomas looked at Kennard who was just standing there watching, hoping that the man would show his care for this girl as before. Kennard did not move from his place.

"Make him something to eat." Kennard ruled Thomas after a brief silence.

"Good, Sir." Thomas rushed out of the room. He did not expect his master to scold the girl again.

"Didn't you eat anything all day?" Kennard looked at Lisle who had now been sitting on the bed. He knew the girl only had a little money when she left. "What are you going to do out there. Without money. Without work. You want to be a bum? Did I hurt you here? Which part of it makes you feel like you're not being treated well in this house? Do you think without that deal you'd want to stay here? Lisle, you saw how much trouble came to you when you were out there. I just wanted to protect you. But you made me mad, screwed up all the things you knew. And that man meddles too much in our affairs. Doesn't he deserve to be punished?"

Lisle lowered her head toying with her fingers on the edge of the blanket. Mr. Kent's words have a point, but living here for no reason, it's absolutely ridiculous. Who is he to Mr Kent?

"But Ralph didn't mean it badly. He only found the truth for me...." Lisle tried to give her defense to Ralph timidly.

"Not all truth needs to be revealed because not everything is useful. Ralph's just a troublemaker. Right now he's probably being cursed by the entire Caldwell family."

"Please don't disturb that family...." Lisle suddenly remembered her purpose back at this house. "I'll do anything for you. It's just a small thing. No need to make it this big...."

Hearing that Kennard suddenly walked over. And he became too close because his face was already in front of Lisle.

"What can you do for me? Do you want to fuck with me? Just kissing you're still not very good...." Kennard's gaze fell on those beautiful lips that seemed to tremble withstanding fear.

Lisle turned her face to the side avoiding looking directly at Kennard. "I can cook for you. I can wash...." Those words slid sillyly from Lisle's lips. He himself did not believe what he said.

Kennard's eyes narrowed. He did not know what to say as soon as he heard Lisle's reply. This girl wanted to strangle him.
