CHAPTER 65 I WANT YOU TO BE MINE

"Ah, Head Maid Edda, you are here, this way please"

A waiter bowed respectfully and pointed at a certain room. Edda raised her eyes when she saw that.

Although she was treated with respect everywhere she goes, it wasn't to this point.

She shook her head to shake off these useless thoughts as she walked into the room the waiter pointed to.

Entering the room, she saw 'Mr. Dio', wearing magnificent black coloured robes as he sat on the chair. When 'Mr. Dio's' eyes fell on her, they brightened as he quickly walked toward her with a smile.

"Miss Edda, you look even more stunning than you did yesterday"

He complimented as he offered his hand to her, Edda held his hand and a small smile appeared on her face. She put up some make-up on today and was glad that he noticed it.

"Mmhm, you smell really good as well,"

Nux complimented again, this time, with a meaningful smile. Edda smiled back as she replied,

"I tried your perfume today"

"As they say, a gem would only shine if it is in the right hand. I am very proud of my yesterday's self for finding the right gem for my perfume" This content provided by N(o)velDrama].[Org.

"Please have a seat, Miss Edda." Nux then pulled the chair like a gentleman and offered it to her. Edda took the offer with a smile and sat down.

"Since I don't know much about this place, I will let you order the food for us; I believe that your judgment would be the most accurate one I can get." Nux smiled softly.

Edda ordered the food and Nux brought out a pink coloured gown and introduced,

"This is one of the items I failed to introduce yesterday, just like yesterday's gown, this one is also made from pure silk, however, it's designed by one of our finest tailors, the combination of the pink coloured gown and purple designs match your eyes as well. I am especially proud of this product"

"It is amazing indeed…"

…

Nux then took out a few more items and introduces them, Edda liked them all however, when Nux was about to take out another item, she stopped him and questioned.

"Mr Dio, please be honest, do you intend to sell your products to the Royal Palace through me?"

At her question, Nux smiled and answered,

"That was the initial plan, yes"

"Initial?"

"Yes, the goal is still the same but I found a more important goal right now"

"Is that goal perhaps me?" Edda guessed and asked honestly. She wasn't stupid, although she liked the items he introduced, half of them, including the pink gown suited her, a lot.

The way Nux talked with her, the way he acted in front of her, it was as if he was giving some signals to her.

"As expected, beauty with brains, Miss Edda is sharp." Nux smiled.

"Since you have already guessed, there is no point hiding it anymore.

I want you to be mine, Edda" ρꪖꪕᦔꪖꪕꪫꪣꫀ ꪶ

Nux declared with intense passion burning in his golden eyes. Edda was taken aback by the intense look in his eyes, her heart jumped in excitement but when she thought about something, she sighed and answered.

"Mr Dio, I am very pleased to learn about your feelings, but you have to understand that although I might look young, I am more than 40 years ol-"

"It does not matter." Nux interrupted.

"As I said, I want to make you mine, Edda. The moment my eyes fell on you, that was the first thought that appeared in my mind. It does not matter how old you are. As long as you are not against me, I never back down"

"…"

Edda remained silent, she was too overwhelmed by the sudden emotions that welled inside her. Pleasure, happiness, doubt, insecurity… myriads of emotions attacked her mind and she was unable to come up with an answer on the spot.

And as if knowing about it, Nux continued, "Of course, I do not expect you to accept me just because I said it and I know that you will need time to think about all of this.

How about this, 2 days later, we will go on a date. We will spend a full day together, we will go shopping, watch some plays if you like, have breakfast, lunch, and, dinner together, and after that, it will be up to you.

Of course, if you still can't decide by then, we can go on another date next week and will keep on doing it until you make up your mind."

"W-We can do that…" Edda muttered quietly.

"However, I will warn you before," Nux then walked towards her before he moved his face closer to her and lifted her chin.

"I am a very possessive man. Once you accept me, you will be mine. I won't let you get away from me" He whispered seductively.

Edda's heartbeat quickened and her face turned red.

Too close!

He was too close!

As if hearing her thoughts, Nux moved away and smiled.

However, Edda, who should feel better now that his face was away, felt a tinge of disappointment welling in her heart.

"Hmm… now that we have talked about this, I think it's time to end the meeting?" Suddenly, she heard Nux muttering and felt more disappointed.

*Pat*

But then she heard a sound and saw Nux bringing his chair next to her,

"But since we still have time, why don't we spend it together? I am still hungry, shall we order food?" He also grabbed her hand as if it was the most natural thing to do. However, for some reason, Edda didn't reject him either.

The two then spend some time together before Edda suddenly remembered,

"Ah! Mr Dio, I am very sorry that I forgot about it, I can't go on a date with you 2 days ago. As I am head maid, if I want a day off, I need to apply it a week ago. So we will have to postpone it for a week."

Nux did not take it to his heart and smiled, "Don't worry, Edda, we will take it with your pace. I have already told you where I live, you can always send me a message even if you want to postpone it for another week"

"N-No, I won't postpone it more… I-I want to go on a date as quickly as possible as well…"

Edda muttered with a blush.
