Lover Forced The Ruler

Chapter 64. Lisle The Annoying

Celine was shocked as soon as she saw who had already knocked on the door of her apartment. Lisle smiled sweetly while standing in the doorway and then barged inside when her best friend Celine did not also tell her to come in. The girl dragged her small suitcase straight into the room.

After locking the door, Celine followed after Lisle. He still couldn't believe seeing Lisle return to his apartment. Didn't the girl live in Palm Garden with her lover, Mr. Kent after the horrific kidnapping drama? Why did Lisle suddenly come with a suitcase and look relaxed. There's no way they're fighting anymore.

"You're fighting again?" ask Celine curiously. He did not believe Lisle would repeat the same mistake again as before. What is less than Mr Kent? Handsome, rich and powerful. The entire Black Mountain population knew and respected him. Although there have been some negative rumors about the atrocities and its dark business activities, they have never been proven. One thing is certain, Mr. Kent is the Chairman of the Diamond group which holds the economy of the country.

"Not really." Lisle was lying on the bed. His eyes closed enjoying a feeling of relief and comfort once he arrived here. "I'll stay here a while."

Celine's eyebrows frowned. He failed to guess what happened. "Palm Garden is definitely more comfortable than this apartment. Don't tell me you don't want to live there."

Lisle got up from her lying position and pulled Celine's arm. Her beautiful eyes seemed to be filled with happy twinkle. "Celine, I have good news."

"Hm, what?" Celine bent her lips but the indignation in her heart thumped in curiosity. This is definitely not ordinary news.

"We're getting married." Lisle held onto both of Celine's arms and stared straight into those eyes, waiting for her best friend's reaction.

Sure enough, Celine widened her eyes in disbelief. "So fast?" celine was almost hysterical. Her best friend, Lisle is getting married to the greatest man in town, isn't that amazing. "When?"

"Next week," Lisle said as she blushed. He also didn't think Mr. Kent would break off their marriage next Sunday. Of course it was inseparable from their agreement yesterday that made their marriage can be done faster.

Celine sneers. "Wedding's next Sunday and you're back in this apartment. Did you just come to report this? But looking at your suitcase, I thought you'd spend the night here."

"I told you, I'll stay here a while before we get married. Mr. Kent always bothered me. I'm going crazy for him." Lisle expressed her complaint.

"What do you mean by interrupting?" Celine looked on with a look.

Lisle's face flushed. "He's…. You know, emm…. He keeps teasing me."

Celine removed her hand from Lisle's grip, staring in disdain at that blushing face. He understood a few things about relationships with the opposite sex even though he himself had never been in a serious relationship with someone. But seeing Lisle constantly blushing while talking made her both annoyed and envious simultaneously. While many girls did various ways to get into the man's bed, Lisle, now a lover and future wife of Mr. Kent, was 'blurred' the week before the wedding day.

"What's wrong with sleeping together. You'll soon be married too."

Lisle grimacing. "What's wrong with waiting another week. It wasn't long…."

"You're too conservative" Celine said. "So, why is it so fast? It takes time for a big event. You should at least wait two or three months. Don't tell me you're not gonna have a party. Mr. Kent is very rich. He certainly wouldn't be a stingy to make a fancy party."

Celine finally just flicked her shoulders feeling helpless with the decision that Lisle took. He didn't understand whether the girl was stupid or clever at this. Lady Kent's status is the dream of the girls in this town but Lisle instead wants to hide her from the world.

***

During the week leading up to Lisle's wedding, Celine is exasperated by the girl's behavior. Even though Mr. Kent was nowhere near them, it felt like Celine could feel the ghost-like presence of the man. Her ears constantly heard the name called Lisle. If not talking to Celine, Lisle would have mentioned the name on the phone while talking to Mr. Kent.

"Why don't you just go back there to Palm Garden. Don't you want to meet her?"

That night Celine became unable to bear the sight of Lisle rolling around on the bed with her phone stuck to her ear. The girl spoke in a spoiled tone on the phone to the point of making Celine almost vomit. He did not understand how the cold lord Kent was able to serve Lisle's obscure ravings for hours. Does that guy have no other job?

"What are you talking about?" Lisle closed the speaker part of her phone, staring at the sullen Celine with a radiant face, the remnants of her conversation with the lover.

"You keep whining at Mr. Kent, admitting to missing him, why don't you just go back to the Palm Garden?" Celine stood up while side-scaping. It felt like he wanted to expel the girl in front of him this evening as well. Lisle never made it this bad. Maybe if you want to be honest this is more of a feeling of envy. He also wants to have a partner. It doesn't have to be as good as Mr. Kent. At least he's a good and reliable man.

"Celine, I know you can't wait to kick me out. But wait a few more days. I'm afraid you'll miss me." Lisle said that while winking mischievously.

Celine almost vomited blood hearing Lisle's words. The thing he wanted the most right now was to kick this girl out of his apartment. He never thought people who were in love could become so annoying. And flirtatious.

Yes, Lisle in Celine's eyes suddenly became flirtatious. The innocent a few months ago who was still blushing just from being stared at by the opposite sex a little longer, these few days look disgusting when talking about things that concern Mr. Kent. The man had really made this innocent creature intoxicated.

"Yes yes, I know. You may be going on your honeymoon for a long time. But just so you know, I'm gonna be too busy on this vacation with my extra work, so I won't have time to think about you let alone miss you." Celine spoke in annoyance.

Lisle giggled at Celine who was becoming frantic. It's not that he doesn't know that Celine is upset with him. But what else. He really misses Mr. Kent. All he could do was talk on the phone. Mr. Kent himself is currently overseas and will return two days before the signing of the marriage book and minor celebrations. Living in the Palm Garden would make him feel lonely.

"Do I look funny?" Celine stared fiercely at Lisle who did not cover her gel feelings.

"No. no…."  Lisle moved her hands in front of her face as a gesture that she did not think her best friend was cute, making her facial expression even flatter. At first glance he looked at the screen of the phone that was dead due to running out of power. Lisle complained unconsciously. Maybe because it was used for too long, the phone turned off by itself and the connection was disconnected.

Staring at the dark mobile screen, Lisle suddenly recalled something completely unrelated to the thing in front of her. It seemed like he knew what to do to stop Celine's reckless attitude. A boyfriend. Yes, the girl should be kept busy by a man so as not to be annoyed by the affair between Lisle and Mr. Kent. And Lisle knew who the man who was worthy of her best friend was.
