Chapter 1929 Sneaking Into Imperial Garden

“Why are you in such a hurry?”

When they returned to the room, Zayden told Yuvan that Evan did not agree to let him stay in the house. In fact, he was the one who had taken it upon himself to make the decision and manipulate Evan’s intentions. Hence, Zayden warned Yuvan to be careful and avoid stumbling into Evan.

“You’ve got to be like a mouse and avoid my uncle, who’s the cat. Otherwise, he’ll definitely get someone to kick you out of Imperial Garden,” Zayden reminded.

Yuvan stared at him with a blank look. He was stuck in a difficult situation; there was no way out of it. “Why didn’t you say so earlier?”

“You wouldn’t have come in if I had said so. Okay, enough. We must not waste any more time. Let’s hurry up and memorize the lines.”

Feeling unsettled, Yuvan reminded Zayden, “Quick. Lock the door. Don’t let your uncle find out.”

“You’re quite afraid of Uncle Evan, eh?”

“Of course. Don’t you know what kind of person your uncle is? Everyone in Y City fears him. Oh boy. You’ve really put me in deep trouble now.”

“Don’t worry. Imperial Garden is a big place. Uncle Evan won’t be able to find you for some time. Besides, Joy and I will cover for you. Basically, you’ll only go out when he leaves the house during the day. At night, you’ll come home with us. Anyway, the butler won’t cause you any more trouble since he thinks it’s my uncle who let you stay here.”

“Okay.” Yuvan nodded and sighed.

With that, they started memorizing the script while Joy kept watch in the corner.

However, never in their wildest dreams did they expect Evan to be watching the surveillance footage in the study room. The entire process of Yuvan entering Imperial Garden was displayed on the screen.

That little rascal, Zayden, is quite bold, eh?

Since Evan knew little about Yuvan and his intentions, it was dangerous to let someone like him live there. Hence, he decided to assign someone to keep an eye on him.

Remaining calm, Evan gave the task to the butler.

“Don’t worry, Mr. Seet. I know what to do.”

“Okay. You may leave now.”

As the butler exited the study room, he suddenly had a realization. I was just wondering why Mr. Seet would suddenly change his mind and let a stranger live here. Now I know what’s going on. Mr. Seet has other plans.

Meanwhile, Joy kept sighing as she watched Zayden and Yuvan practicing their lines. “Can you two be a little serious? You guys are wasting a lot of time.”

“Stop stressing us, Joy. We’re memorizing while thinking of ways to improve our acting.”

“Both of you should just act according to the script and stop thinking of being ingenious all the time. You’ve turned a sad scene into a comedy and a comedy into a drama. If you keep up with this, I don’t know how I am going to play my part.”

Her words left the other two speechless.

Seeing the displeasure on Joy’s face, Yuvan immediately coaxed, “Okay, okay. We promise we’ll follow the script. We won’t simply change it anymore, okay?”

“Yuvan, didn’t you say I can’t memorize the parts with too many lines? Can you teach me how to change my lines?”

“Zayden, we need to respect Joy, too. We’re not the only ones acting. We have to think about how the others feel.”

“Exactly. Now that’s more like it, Yuvan.”

Yuvan was at a loss for words.

Joy was pleased with the outcome, while Zayden pouted and started memorizing the lines that were difficult to utter.

The session did not end until he was done memorizing, practiced it with Yuvan, and had gotten Joy’s approval.

“Yuvan, you can sleep with me tonight.”

“Okay. I can’t even go out of Imperial Garden, anyway.”

“Don’t worry. When Uncle Evan is not around, you can still go out and get some fresh air. We’re going to school tomorrow. Remember, you must wait until Uncle Evan leaves before you can go out,” Zayden reminded.

“Okay. I got it.”

Soon, silence filled the air. Yuvan lay on the same bed as Zayden. As he watched the latter fall asleep, various emotions stirred in his heart and a dark gaze filled his eyes.

I can’t believe I’m here at Imperial Garden so easily. Evan and Nicole live here too. I’m going to make you people pay for the incident back then.
