Chapter 3: Choking Her Neck

At this moment, a knock on the door broke the silence of the room, and the butler Uncle Fu's slightly respectful voice came from outside the door : "Master."

Lucas raised his thin lips lightly and uttered one word: "Come in."

Uncle Fu pushed the door open and walked in. He scanned the room and finally landed on Lucas: "Master, what should we do with Evelyn?"

Lucas stood handsomely beside the bed. He was 1.87 meters tall and wore the simplest white shirt and black pants. However, the expensive fabric and hand-tailoring made him look tall and slender, with an outstanding temperament. He lowered his eyes and skillfully turned the glittering silver button on the sleeve of his shirt, as if he didn't care about anything in front of him. He glanced at Evelyn casually , and a playful smile appeared on the corner of his mouth: "You don't know yet, there are two wolves in the backyard of Youlan Garden. Why don't we... throw you in to feed them?"

Evelyn's heart tightened. This marriage was arranged by the older generation, involving the four major wealthy families in Haicheng - Brown, Taylor, Miller and Williams families. The young master of the Brown family was powerful and was said to be the youngest and most handsome business tycoon of the generation, but no one had ever seen his true face, so he was quite mysterious.

Youlan Garden is located in a remote area and seems to have no connection with the rich. The Smith family once sent people to investigate and found only that there were two grandparents and grandchildren in Youlan Garden. The grandson was the ghost husband who was terminally ill in the legend. Jasmine wanted her daughter to marry into the four wealthy families in Haicheng, so she was naturally very dissatisfied with this marriage.

Jasmine didn't want her daughter to marry, but Ethan was a feudal and filial person and didn't want to violate the marriage contract made by the older generation. So, Jasmine thought of Evelyn and took her back to marry her instead.

In Evelyn's opinion, the man in front of her was definitely not some high-ranking official. However, at this moment, she was confused. This man exuded a sense of superiority in his every move, and exuded a sense of cold elegance in his bones, like a king giving orders, making people want to worship him.

He even raises wolves in the backyard! Wolves, this is not an entertainment that ordinary people can have.

Evelyn was about to speak, but she saw the man suddenly put his hands on the table, slightly closed his handsome eyes, revealing a painful look. The housekeeper's face changed drastically, and he quickly said: "Master, I will go call a doctor now!"

Evelyn's clear eyes moved downwards, and she saw that the veins on his two big hands that were resting on the table were throbbing, like a sign of illness. Is he sick? Moreover, it was a very terrible disease.

At this moment, Evelyn met the man's narrow scarlet eyes. Lucas turned his head to look at her, but his words were to the housekeeper: "Get her out!"

The housekeeper hurriedly urged: " Evelyn , please leave quickly." Evelyn knew she couldn't leave. She came back to the Smith family with a purpose and needed the identity of the bride of Youlan Garden. She looked at Lucas with clear eyes , without dodging: "You are sick, what is it? I know a little about medicine and acupuncture, and I can treat you."

Lucas pressed his thin lips into a cold arc, and almost rolled out a word from his throat: "Get lost!"

Evelyn didn't leave, but walked closer to him: "Just now I smelled the scent of precious medicinal herbs such as lily, poria cocos, and gastrodia elata on you. These are all traditional Chinese medicines for treating insomnia. If I guess correctly, you should have a sleep disorder and can't sleep at night."

Evelyn in shock : " Evelyn , you..." Evelyn 's bright eyes fell on Lucas ' handsome face: "How serious is your sleep disorder? Once the sleep disorder reaches a deep level, it will seriously affect a person's mental state. When the body is extremely tired but cannot rest and relax, another self will live in your body, and that self will be gloomy, irritable, terrible, and almost pathological."

The corners of Lucas's narrow eyes were getting redder and redder, and a layer of gloom had covered his handsome eyebrows. He stretched out his hand and grabbed Evelyn's neck. The girl's neck was very delicate, and she would die if he pinched it lightly.

"Evelyn , stop provoking the young master! Young master, let Evelyn go!" The housekeeper was so anxious that he almost rushed over.

The fresh air that could be breathed in became thinner and thinner, and Evelyn's little face slowly became red. However, she turned her little hand and quickly inserted a silver needle into Lucas 's acupuncture point. Lucas loosened his hand and sat on the sofa.

Evelyn gasped for air. She didn't want to lose her life here this time. She was afraid just now. The man in front of her was too dangerous. Not to mention his mysterious identity, the sleep disorder alone could turn him from an elegant and noble man into a monster at any time.

However, she had no way out and could only give it a try. Evelyn adjusted her breathing, came behind him, and then raised her slender white fingers to his temples to massage him.

Lucas closed his handsome eyes, hiding the scarlet in his eyes: "Your treatment is to massage me?"

"Be happy, you're the first man I've massaged." Evelyn teased.

"As if you weren't the first woman to have the pleasure of giving me a massage," Lucas shot back.

The atmosphere between the two of them suddenly became awkward, as if they couldn't continue the conversation.

"Leave me here, and we'll live in peace. You don't ask about my personal affairs, I'll help you act in front of your grandma, and I can also help you cure your insomnia, how about that?" Evelyn was the first to break the silence.

Lucas didn't say anything, but just closed his eyes quietly. When Evelyn pushed a thin silver needle into his brain acupuncture point, he closed his eyes and fell on the sofa. Evelyn quickly reached out and gently and tenderly caught his handsome face. He fell asleep.

The housekeeper on the side was already sweating profusely. Others didn't know the identity of his young master, but how could he not know? His young master was the young master of the Brown family, a child of destiny, who played around in the business world when he was a teenager and created the Brown family legend. No one had ever dared to negotiate with his young master like this, let alone a girl.

In recent years, all the girls who had the honor to see the young master had pink bubbles in their eyes, yearning and loving, and wanted to throw themselves into the arms of the young master. But Evelyn in front of him was so special. Even in front of the sick young master, she remained calm, calm and intelligent.

What was even more surprising was that the young master actually fell asleep! The young master hadn't slept for a long time! The masters who treated the young master for insomnia were all top masters in the world, but it didn't work. However, now the young master fell asleep in Evelyn's palm!

"Evelyn..." the butler called out.

Evelyn put her finger to her lips and made a "hush" gesture: "Go out, I'm here."

For some reason, the butler felt that Evelyn had a reassuring power. He obediently retreated, leaving Evelyn and Lucas to get along quietly in the room.

…

The room fell into silence again. Evelyn let him rest in her palm for a while, and when he fell into a deep sleep, she put him on the sofa and covered him with a quilt. After doing all this, Evelyn also got dressed and went to bed and fell asleep.

At this time, Lucas on the sofa slowly opened his eyes and woke up. He stood up and walked to the bed, stretching out his slender fingers to lift the veil on Evelyn's face...
