“What?! But why are you sending me? Isn’t there anyone who can replace me?” Ayden was furious, his expressions were giving out his internal feeling, Reynker sat in front of him with a serious face.
“You are the second heir of this Company, who else do you think is more suitable for this post?” Ryker replied with a rather calm voice.
“But...but why do I have to leave?” Ayden mumbled.
“It’s not like I am sending you somewhere far—you can come home every week,”
Ryker replied, he got up from his chair and walked closer to Ayden and patted his shoulder.
“I know you think that this is a huge responsibility but, I am sure you will be able to handle it,”
Ayden’s eyebrows were knitted, and his eyes trembled. He had a lot to say but he wasn’t able to let out his emotions.
He returned to the mansion with a pale look on his face. The maids noticed it immediately and walked closer to ask.
“Are you okay?Do you want me to call a doctor?” She asked in a worried tone.
“No- I am alright,” He continued walking, and Eryna who was sitting beside the T.V noticed him.
“Ayden? Why are you so pale?” She hurriedly walked towards him. Ayden’s reluctant gaze met Eryna’s worried eyes, he felt like his heart was about to explode. Her smiling face revolved around his eyes made him weak in his legs and he trembled before losing all the strength in his legs. He fell to the ground while Eryna held onto him to stop him from hitting the floor harshly.
“Ayden?! Call the doctor!!” Eryna shouted, and patted Ayden’s face to wake him up.
“Ayden?! Get up!” Eryna anxiously called him out, Micah too ran over to the and was struck to see his brother lying lifelessly on the floor.
“Ayden!? What happened to him,” he kneeled down and held his body against his chest, and asked Eryna.
“I don’t know! He just fell,” Eryna replied in an almost crying like voice.
“Doctor! call the doctor somebody!!” Micah growled.
Half an hour later, the doctor walked out of Ayden’s room,
“How is he now?” Eryna asked before Micah could say anything.
“It’s nothing serious but it must have been something overwhelming that made him pass out, he must have overworked himself, after a days rest he would be good to go,” doctor replied in a calm tone.
“Sigh! That’s a relief,” Eryna breathed out and glanced at Ayden through the open door, Micah’s eyes were fixed on Eryna’s every move.
“Let me walk you down the stairs,” the maid asked the doctor.
‘Should I make him something healthy?’ Eryna thought as she stepped away from the door, Micah followed her like a tail, at first Eryna didn’t notice him but when she was at the kitchen door she felt like somebody was following her, she swiftly turned around to catch the culprit but ended up hitting her face against Micah’s tough chest.
“Ouch!” Eryna rubbed her nose and glanced up at him with anger, “ why are you following me? Wasn’t that you who said that he didn’t want to see my face?” Eryna spoke with an irritated tone.
Micah froze, his eyes fixed on Eryna’s face while his hands started sweating.
He swallowed his saliva and parted his lips.
“I— I am sorry~” his last words were inaudible.
“What?” Eryna asked.
“I said! I was sorry~” hos words ended up in a whisper.
“If you have nothing to say then i will be leaving,” Eryna turned around and stepped away but suddenly she felt a jerk and her back hit the wall lightly.
Micah had his hand on either side of the wall and she was trapped inside.
“What are you doing?” Eryna frowned,
Micah, who seemed determined a while ago, stood there speechless.
“I Said i was sorry,” he said in a soft voice, “ I shouldn’t have gotten angry,” he muttered as he looked away.
“Pfft…” Eryna cracked into laughter, it took her a while to shut her mouth, Micahw as in a daze when he noticed her weird behaviour. “ you look so cute when you say sorry,” she cleared her tears that had formed in her eyes because of over laughing.
Micah frowned a bit when he heard the word cute, “That was rude,” Micah pulled away his hands and freed Eryna, while muttering.
“Okay, my apologies, But i am sorry too, I shouldn’t have picked up your girlfriend’s call,” Eryna replied with a joking tone. She walked into the kitchen not noticing Micah’s expression.
“She is not my girlfriend,” he replied defensively, and walked behind her.
“Yeah, sure she is not,” Eryna replied sarcastically, and opened up the refrigerator.
“I am being serious, she is not,” Just like a little kid he tried to explain himself, Eryna looked up at him because she was sitting down to pull out the vegetables.
Her expressions clearly said, ‘Is there Idiot written on my face?’
“Why are you explaining it to me by the way? It's not like i am really going to tell your grandpa about it,” Eryna passed the tomatoes to him while speaking.
Micah didn’t answer and walked over to the sink and started rinsing the tomatoes.
Eryna too didn’t mind that he was helping, They silently worked for a while and finally Micah decided to speak again.
“Is this for Ayden?”
“Hm…” Eryna nodded,
“Why are you doing so much for him?” Micah asked, “Are you by chance, going after him because you didn’t get what you came here for from me, so you are planning to loot him instead,” he asked suspiciously.
Eryna stopped stirring the spoon in the pot and looked at Micah who was chopping the onions.
‘I wish I could punch him in the face.” Eryna tightly gripped the wooden spoon in her hand and breathed in deeply.
“Yes, you are absolutely right, Now that you know my secret you can just leave me alone, thank you for your assistance,” Eeyan pushed him out of the kitchen while speaking as loudly as she could.
“And don’t come in!” Eryna warned him with a deathly gaze. The maids that were walking by looked at them with horrified looks. They were waiting for Micah to explode but he silently stood outside the door, and didn’t step in at all. His lips twitched when he saw Eryna’s angry figure walk away towards the pot.
