Chapter 107
She nervously lowered her head due to Haris’ intense gaze, which felt rather intimidating.
“You look lovely in that dress,” he complimented, and Elizabeth blushed.
“Are you mocking me? It’s just a simple off-shoulder gown,” she replied.
“Mock you? Never. It may be an off-shoulder gown, but it seems as if it was tailor-made for you. You look stunning in it,” he said.
“Thank you,” she replied, her cheeks turning red.
“Are you my brother’s girlfriend?” the little boy asked, and Elizabeth feigned a cough.
“Hmm, no,” she replied, and he nodded.
“But I think Uncle Haris loves her. I met her once when I accidentally bumped into her,” Ava innocently stated, and Elizabeth inwardly smiled.
“You little ra$cal. Who taught you the word ‘love’?”
“Uncle Martin always says that to my sister,” she said innocently, and Elizabeth laughed, finding it cute.
“Don’t mind them,” he said, turning to look at Elizabeth, who was still laughing.
“It’s okay. I love them,” she said, touching their hair.
“Go play in the garden,” Haris said, and they both rushed out, probably heading to the garden.
“I’m kind of grateful you’re here,” Haris said after a long silence.
He just didn’t know how to start a conversation. Having her there was a rare chance, and he didn’t want to miss it.
“I was eating. Do you want to join me?” he said, and Elizabeth shrugged her shoulders.
“I would really love to, but I need to head back to work. This is my lunch break,” Elizabeth said, and Haris sighed.
“It’s okay… thanks,” he said, faking a smile, and Elizabeth smiled back.
“Do you mind seeing me off?” she asked.
“Of course,” he replied. They both smiled at each other before walking out of the sitting room.
“Martin and Evelyn are not at their desks, right?” Haris said, and Elizabeth nodded.
“Yeah, yesterday some employees said they saw Martin running into the rain, calling out Evelyn’s name, and since yesterday, they haven’t come to work,” she said, and Haris chuckled.
“They are probably out there enjoying themselves,” Haris muttered to himself, smiling.
“What work do you do?” Elizabeth asked.
“Well, I’m a painter and an artist,” Haris said.
“Wow! Can I get a picture from you… please?” she pouted her lips, and Haris laughed.
“Okay,” he simply replied, but what she didn’t know was that he had already drawn her.
“Thank you,” she said, and he just nodded.
“Okay, I’ll get a taxi from here,” she said, and Haris nodded.
“Thank you,” she said, and hugged him, making Haris’s cheek turn pink.
They both stared at each other for some time, and Elizabeth took him by surprise when she kssed him on his lips, and he gasped.
Most passersby just smiled as they looked at them.
