Chapter 9: Short Thing & Her Brother(2)
"Hey, you short thing! Wake up! How dare you sleep so well, making us worry all night? Wake up!"
Asher's hands were tied up while he was still in a daze while watching the things happening in his room.
Why was he tied up?
Why was he on his knees?
Why did those two look like guards gave him such glares?
Just what the fuck was going on?!
He watched the handsome man who was in clean and luxurious clothes walk to the girl in bed and try to wake her up by calling, 'Short thing.'
The girl actually didn't want to wake up. She kicked her brother and turned around to sleep. The guards were speechless. The duke didn't go hard on her and had spoiled her a lot. No wonder she felt free to sleep at a stranger's place. She knew no fear. That's what the guards thought and that was also the reality. Their young miss was wild, very wild!
"You!"
The duke hit her back like a lovely brother who always lived to trouble his well-doing sister. As usual, she finally woke up, nagging her annoyingly handsome brother.
"Ah! Why can't you let me sleep well? You are very annoying!
She woke up yelling at him. Asher watched her with a wow. She was so adorable.
She was angry at the duke and didn't notice the guy who helped her yesterday on the ground, kneeling.
When she noticed that she started nagging her brother.
"You! Let go of him! He saved me, fed me, let me sleep here. How could you treat this brother like that?"
'Brother?'
The guards immediately let go of Asher. Their young miss was no good from their master. They feared her too.
But the duke's look at that moment said, 'Don't you dare!'
He knew her sister was bold enough to make his guards follow her orders. Like how she sent his guards to buy her favourite cake…Sigh…
This little girl didn't like others' company other than his brother's. The same went with her brother too. So her liking another person meant she actually trusted them and liked them. Which…anyone in that mansion would never expect to happen. It's just impossible for her to see something good and be approvable of someone.
Still, it happened in the end.
But how could she feel so trustworthy toward him, when she met him just a few hours ago?
"I am sorry, but I didn't do anything. I heard her screaming for help and helped her."
Asher explained everything clearly. But the more he explained, the more others' faces got gloomy.
"She? Screamed for help? I don't believe that! Do you know who she is!? She is-"
Before the guard continued, the girl disturbed.
"He was handsome. So I thought of getting some help. What?"
She scoffed and gave a glare to the guards.
The duke was speechless.
The guards were also speechless.
That so-called handsome man was even more speechless.
'Handsome? So asked for help? Little lady, why didn't you wait for a rich man to show up?'
