Trapped With The Devil
Section 23
“So, Mrs William spread all that gossip?” Selena's two hands clasped, her gaze falling on the floor. “How could he possibly do all this?” he said he didn't think it out.
“I told my men to take down all the gossip,” Leo said try to calm down. “I actually don't understand either, but I think Mrs William doesn't like you.”
“Yes, I think so. Maybe he doesn't like my background.” Selena glanced at Leo. “But still, it feels like he's overreacting.”
Sam suddenly came out of the room with his clothes and hair tidy. He glanced at the two people sitting on the sofa before walking towards the door. Come to think of it Leo and Selena look a good fit. Compared to Eros, Leo is a little more has ‘side humanity’. But what a pity, no matter how good Leo is, that man is Eros' best friend. The point is, same thing, right?
“If you guys want dinner, delivery only, yes.”
Both looking.
“Where are you going?” ask Selena curiously.
Sam shrug his shoulders. “Work, of course.” The man seemed to sort out the shoes on the shelf before putting them on. The job as Selena's assistant is only a side, actually Sam has long worked as a barista in one of the cafes.
“Need to take you?” bargain Leo.
Sam showed me the car keys. “The installments are still half a year away.” Sam again popped his head before he actually left. “I stay, okay?”
Selena and Leo nodded.
“Actually I also can not linger here.” Leo took the time to talk to Selena because she knew that the woman was not wrong, also because they had worked together. Eros never thought that dragging Selena would only cause other problems. And who would have thought that his name would be dragged as well?
“Yes, you must be very busy. Sorry for all these events,” Selena said is not tasty. However, if it is true what Leo said, it means that the target is indeed him.
Leo smiled awkwardly. “Why are you apologizing? It wasn't all your fault. I also have no regrets about taking you home that day. All this is just a misunderstanding, don't worry.”

“Hmm? Selena is not in the apartment?” Eros stared at the car carrying Emilia from behind the window of her room. While the remaining fragments of the cup left behind by the woman were still cleaned by a servant.
“Alright, I understand.” Before hanging up the phone call Eros again said, “search also know why my mother spread the rumor. Keep an eye on Emilia and Alex. Right now I entrust everything to you.”
Tut's.
Eros grabbed something from inside his pants pocket and observed it with glittering eyes.
“Selena...you think all this is over?”

Madam Swan covered her mouth with teary eyes, while Emilia was unable to say anything more. Too surprised and happy.
“Oh, God..” Madam Swan hugged her daughter with a full day. “Finally I'll be grandma.”
The woman's doctor smiled at the happiness of two women of different ages hugging each other in bed. “The content is only two weeks old and is still very vulnerable. I hope Madam rests a lot and is not too stressed,” said the doctor as he fixed his medical equipment into a tote bag.
Emilia let go of her embrace and nodded. Once again the woman smiled, she could not wait to tell Alex this happy news.
But.if he remembered how he had vomited in Eros' room earlier, Emilia so feel bad. Moreover, he had seen Eros' gaze on him at that time.
The doctor said goodbye and Mrs Swan walked her to the door. Emilia moved towards the tall mirror and glanced at her own body. Because he thought too much about things he did not realize that there had been a fetus growing in his stomach. It's not the first time, but it still feels good.

That night, a few weeks before the school farewell party, Eros invites Emilia, Steve and Leo to hold a barbeque event at his old house. Accompanied by several cans of beer to warm the body, only Emilia seemed to have fallen. The girl could not drink at all. Leo and Steve collapsed after spending a few glasses of vodka. Both of them were helpless in the middle room.
Due to the late night, Eros carried the semi-conscious Emilia into his room. Lying the girl whose face was slightly flushed from drunkenness.
“Eros? Where do you want—hik—to?” Emilia pulled Eros' hand out of the room.
The young man looked. “I'll sleep downstairs, with Leo and Steve.”
Emilia's lips pursed. “You're leaving me?” he said sulking like a child.
Eros smiled, then rubbed the top of the girl's head. “You mabu—“
“I'm not drunk!”
SRETT!
Everything happened like a dream. Emilia landed a kiss that propagated to something they should not have done. They hugged, shared the warmth between the cold of the night and smiled as if they would be happy forever.
Up to one sentence—before Emilia completely asleep—makes Eros destroyed. Although faint but still able to be captured his sense of hearing.
“I love you...Alex.”
