For The Stars Have Sinned (Complete)

Chapter 26

I haven't seen him for a few days but he looks different. He got a haircut. If before he looked like a domineering CEO, now he looks like a member of the military.

It's good for him because he looks like a member of the AFP. I raised my eyebrows when I saw that his muscles were bulging because his clothes were so tight.

But my eyes narrowed when I noticed that his forehead was slightly wrinkled while looking directly into my eyes. He doesn't seem to want to see me, huh? When I remembered what happened the last time we met, both of my cheeks suddenly warmed up. I looked away. I suddenly felt ashamed especially since I rejected Kervy less than a month ago.

"Oh, why do you look at me like that?" I asked annoyed. I folded my arms and glared at him.

He looked at me from head to toe. "You don't mind if I see you like this, Larica?" He folded his arms so I frowned even more.

"I'm dressed nicely," I said.

He looked me seriously in the eyes for a few seconds before the corner of his lips lifted. "I see, but you can only dress like this in front of me." He looked past me. "Get dressed, Miss Larica. I'll wait for you until you're dressed properly."

My face got even worse and I looked down at the thin white pajamas I was wearing. Because the undies are black, it is noticeable. The corner of my lips twitched because I didn't notice it earlier.

It's tiring to get dressed and there's no one else around because we're on the second floor. This hateful man knocked on my room's door earlier. I don't know why Mama let this man wander up here.

"No need." I looked past him and didn't see the things I expected. I frowned. "Where are my things?"

"In the living room."

In the living room? Good thing Mama isn't there. She left the house earlier because she and Papa went on a business meeting. Lyndon already told Mama that he will come here to EGL. It might be the reason why he's too thick-skinned to wander here and knock on my door.

I stared at him. "Really? Just put it in the living room. I'll take care of it." I looked up at the wall. It's still six in the morning on the wall clock. "You're a bit early," I said and looked at him again.

"I have things to do. I just dropped them off." He breathed deeply. "Still boarding to Panglao?"

I blinked and frowned. "Why did you ask?"

He looked away. "I just want to know where you're going."

"Huh." I smirked at him. "You're a stalker, are you? I won't be surprised if I see you in Panglao."

"See you there then," he said as he turned and walked away.

I frowned at Lyndon's receding bulk. I don't know but I have a bad feeling about it.

After a while, there were some butlers carrying my things to the opposite door of my room. I also ordered the maids to carry them inside. I even reprimanded the one with the naughty hand, who suddenly took a piece of merchandise to take a closer look.

"Did I tell you to touch my things?" I glared at the maid who was pale with fear as she crouched in front of me. "If you want merch, buy your own! Don't take someone else's stuff!" I snort at her.

"Miss Rishel, Aurora didn't mean it. Please be patient," said the butler of the house.

"Hmmp! If I hadn't seen it, she might have stolen it!"

The maid raised her head slightly and looked at me shyly. "I don't intend to steal the merch, Miss. I just want to look at it."

"Heh! Get lost!" I snorted and pointed to the door.
