Chapter 92 Just as they agreed, Abby went to meet with Ezgar in the same garden the next evening.
However, she was running a little late, and by the time Abby reached the backyard, she could see Ezgar already waiting for her.
She immediately apologized for making him wait.
âIâm sorry, I was caught up with the decoration finalization and made you wait,â Abby said as soon as she was within earshot of Ezgar.
She really thought it wouldnât take too much time when Alyssa reminded her she still needed to decide upon a few things about the decoration after her lunch.
She spent all the morning choosing flowers and then decoration, and almost came up with a few suitable ideas.
She thought it wouldnât take too much of her time to finalize since she already settled on an idea.
But she didnât expect it would take the entire afternoon, even though she was just âtying up the loose endsâ in her ideas for the decorations.
âItâs okay, itâs only been a few minutes since I came,â the man said, smiling at her.
Abby could tell he was just being polite and then sat on the bench when Ezgar urged her to relax her feet.
âCome sit, so that you could rest your feet as well, while taking a breather first,â Ezgar said.
And Abby noticed how thoughtful he was. He knew she was running here and there, taking care of a lot of things, so he was asking her to relax first.
âThank you,â Abby said, feeling genuinely grateful. âBut we can start right away.â
Abby knew she couldnât hog his time just because he was the one to suggest helping her.
He was the son of the former royal beta, so of course, it would be a blatant lie if he were to say he didnât have things way more important than helping a stranger whom he met just recently.
So she decided it wouldnât be polite to take up too much of his time.
1/4 e Dreame Dreame Chapter 92 âAre you sure? You look really tired,â Ezgar said, pointing at her dark circles that looked more obvious than yesterday.
âI just had a bad night, Iâm okay,â Abby said.
Ezgar didnât probe when she put it like that, for which Abby felt grateful yet again.
He had this sun-shine personality with the perks of easy going nature and reading the air. Abby didnât find it hard to talk to him as they soon fell into a comfortable chat.
But then when they started to compose the speech, they couldnât settle on a single idea.
It was too hard when they had to consider so many things.
âNo, this doesnât sound right,â Edgar couldnât help but shake his head when the idea he came up with didnât suit Abby at all.
Abby felt discouraged when nothing seemed to work for her speech.
They spent more than two hours but it wasnât productive.
âI didnât expect it would be this hard to string a few sentences together,â Ezgar said, making light of the situation when he noticed how the light in Abbyâs eyes died out slowly but surely.
âItâs okay, we will come up with something, donât worry,â Ezgar encouraged her again.
Seeing him like this, Abby felt her spirits lift up again.
But she couldnât help but think how good it would have been if it was Micah helping her instead.
But then, Ezgar smiled at her again and she couldnât help but see an older brother she never had.
She didnât have a reason to envy Ruby until now. But she wouldnât deny it if she was asked right now.
Ruby got a really good brother.
âWe got this,â Ezgar told her again, when she just stared at him with this blank look as if she couldnât take this set back.
But he was surprised when she smiled suddenly.
âYeah, we got this,â Abby said.
Chapter 92 Ezgar let out a sigh of relief when she finally got out of her bad mood.
âI reckon we have to wrap up for today,â he said, as he stood up to leave âYeah, itâs already dinner time,â Abby said and stood up as well Ezgar then bade her goodbye before saying he would spend his night thinking of more ideas for her speech.
Abby came back to an empty room yet again.
Micah wasnât back to dinner tonight either.
She thought of having the kitchen prepare a meal for him, but then discarded that idea when she thought it would only disrupt his plans for the night.
However, her thoughts were disrupted when both Alyssa and Reyna came to talk to her.
âWhat is it?â Abby asked them when they stood looking at each otherâs faces instead of saying what was on their minds.
âLady Abby, we donât think it is wise enough for you to meet Mr. Ezgar so often,â Alyssa said after hemming and hawing for a while.
âYes, Lady Abby, it might give rise to rumors which would be hard to deal with later,â Reyna took her fellow maidâs cue.
When they put it like that, it made Abby fall into a deep thought.
She fell silent, prompting her maids to keep quiet as well.
What they said was true.
She didnât think much when Ezgar suggested he provide his help.
She just felt it was nice to finally have someone to talk to, other than Alyssa and Reyna, who werenât her friends.
While Micah always came late and left early in the morning. She didnât have anyone to talk to.
But then, within two days, Abby started seeing Ezgar as a brotherly figure she never had.
Chapter 02 Even her only sister, Hanna, had never given the warmth she got from Ezgar in their two short meetings.
Now, after listening to Alyssa and Reyna, she couldnât help but think it wasnât really appropriate to meet Ezgar like that.
However, the problem was; she had promised to meet with him the next day again.
Even though he suggested helping her, it wouldnât be pretty if she bailed out on him after making plans.
What should she do?
