Marrying Young Miss Kaya Raya
92

"So, who is this unlucky young man?" ask Daniel.

Evelyn who was focused on looking at the door where Alvin had just come out, turned to the bule man before her.

"Your new target, huh?" ask Daniel again.

"Secret." answered Evelyn lazily.

Daniel crossed his arms, looking at Evelyn with raised eyebrows. "I can't believe this. You're knocking someone out again."

Evelyn raised her eyebrows.

"What are you talking about? Who do you mean?" ask Evelyn astonished.

Daniel chuckles amusedly.

"I'm talking about the waiter who just left. What was his name. I forgot." said Daniel seemed to remember and then flicked his finger. "A, Alvin. Yeah, his name's Alvin."

"What did I do to him?"

"You're not aware? You were staring at that servant like a hungry tiger. Your gaze is full of lust." Daniel continued in a mocking tone.

"Don't talk carelessly, lustfully anything" Evelyn said resentfully.

Daniel chuckled after successfully provoking the girl's annoyance. She likes to tease Evelyn.

"You know him well? I mean that waitress, you talk to her like you're familiar."

"Tell that" Evelyn replied, moving forward to open the bottle and pour it into her glass and Daniel's.

Evelyn grabbed the glass and gave it to Daniel which the young man immediately accepted.

"So, who is he?" Daniel drank his drink.

"She.." Evelyn shrugged, looking very indifferent. "Servant."

Daniel rolled his eyeballs, "You know clearly that's not what I meant by the question, Eve!"

Evelyn looked at Daniel doubtfully.

"Why are you so curious?" evelyn said lazily.

"Just curious."

"Then I won't give any answer to your curiosity. Besides, I also have no obligation to answer that question."

"That's right."

Evelyn glanced again at the door where Alvin came out earlier and shook her head. "I don't want to answer."

"Come, Eve. Usually you always tell me everything." Daniel protested. He did not know since when his best friend became a mysterious pretentious by hiding his personal life like this.

Daniel has always been one of the places where Evelyn used to tell her complaints. In addition to Ziva, Evelyn is also always open to Daniel about everything even the smallest problems.

Daniel himself is a young man of American-Indonesian blood. She is a close friend of Evelyn and Ziva. The two of them were inseparable from Evelyn because they had been friends for many years.

Evelyn and Daniel hardly ever meet in person and only get in touch over the phone.

The male prefers to live abroad after graduating high school and very rarely returns to Indonesia. And this is Daniel's second homecoming of the year.

Daniel drew his body closer to Evelyn. It seemed that the young man was unwilling to give up on his curiosity.

"He's your bedmate, right?" daniel looked at Evelyn as he narrowed his eyes.

Next to Evelyn's eyebrows raised, the girl scoffed, "You're curious as it seems."

Daniel nodded while Evelyn seemed to slowly sigh and placed her glass on the table.

"Our relationship is not that, Daniel. I never slept with her."

"Everything?"

"Absolutely."

"You lied!" accuse Daniel. "I know you're always sleeping with the men you meet."

"Indeed right. But not for this one."

"What is your relationship then?"

"It's none of your business, Daniel!" nagel Evelyn.

But Daniel doesn't seem to care about Evelyn's nagging. He clasped his finger to his chin, seemingly thinking, both eyes looking towards the entrance earlier.

"Never slept together but your gaze on her looks lustful." murmured Daniel. "Hm, but he doesn't look like your usual type."

"Ck, what is my usual type, hm?"

"The strong one, right?! Well, to be honest he looks 'weak', I think. Like it's not your favorite. But I'm sure you guys do have some kind of special relationship."

"You just talk."

"I never just spoke. I always speak the facts." Daniel said with a serious look. "I saw it myself anyway how you looked at it. You like her, right? Honestly!"

Evelyn looked at Daniel for a few seconds before sighing.

"Okay, a little." Evelyn admitted.

"I guessed it. Do you like his face or body?"

"It is not our purpose to meet here to celebrate your arrival in Indonesia. Why are you talking about me now?"

For a moment, Daniel cast a look of astonishment at Evelyn. He looked at the girl from top to bottom, like he was judging something about the girl.

"That's because I'm so curious. I think your type has changed now." Daniel said still staring at Evelyn.

"Ck, what's changed?"

"Change. You used to like muscular, burly men. But now?"

Daniel's words made Evelyn gulp her saliva rough.

"Now I ask, since when did your type of man turn into a skinny man? What made you like that young man? What face?" Daniel was still staring at Evelyn, curious.

"You're asking a lot of questions."

"Come on Eve, I'm surprised. You never liked skinny men. While the young man?"

Evelyn stared back at Daniel in wonder.

As he recalled, Daniel had never been so curious. The young man never wanted to know the affairs of others, unless someone himself first told him.

But what can be done, Daniel really knows him. He knew what Evelyn liked or not. And it must have made him wonder how Evelyn could be interested in a young man like Alvin.

Evelyn was sure, Daniel would definitely not stop asking anything about this. Would he better answer?

"Definitely his face, right?" ask Daniel again.

"Sort of like that."

"So right because of his face." Daniel mangosteen. "I agree that he is handsome. But he's not rich. She's a waiter."

"Want to?"

"You know exactly what I meant just now, Eve."

Evelyn turned her face the other way. To be honest, this was a topic he hated. This was also the question he least wanted to answer. But Daniel was a close friend other than Ziva, so it was fine for him to discuss this sort of thing.

Evelyn sighed slowly then sipped her drink casually.

"I'm rich. Yes, that's true, Daniel. That's why I don't need rich men. So, I guess that could be one of the reasons why you shouldn't worry about me."

Daniel scoffed cynically, "Who said I was worried about you?"

"What?"

"Listen Eve! I'm not worried about you. Not even a little. You can do whatever you want. I'm worried about that young man."

"You worried about Alvin?"

"Yes!"

"What's wrong with him?"

"Oh come. I know what kind of person you are. You're the type to leave someone after you've finished having fun with him. And I'm sure that you'll do the same to that young man."

Evelyn instantly fell silent and looked at Daniel.

"I just feel sorry if someone like him should be seen by you. If it was someone else who was rich, I wouldn't care. But this young man would be unpleasant to see him sad while serving visitors later, wouldn't he?"

"I won't show it. I couldn't have done that to her."

"Oh, really? I can't believe an Evelyn won't dump a man."

"It's up to you not to believe. But it was clear to me that this young man was different from the others."

"Different how?"

"Yes different.." Evelyn paused her sentence, then smiled, ". because if it was another man I would just take it as a place to have fun. But this guy I like him in a different way."

Daniel chuckled, "different how do you mean?"

"Ob, forget it!"

"Speak clearly, Eve." protested Daniel.

Evelyn smiled obliquely then got up from her seat.

"Where are you going?" daniel asked, looking at Evelyn who was tidying up her slightly tangled clothes.

"I'm going out. This room is too quiet for me. Uninspiring. I'm going to the dance hall. More crowded. And the music there will be fun. You wanna come?"

After saying that, Evelyn immediately stepped her foot out of the room.

"Hey, but you haven't answered my question about the differences" Daniel said.

Evelyn answered nothing. The girl smiled as she continued to walk away from Daniel.

Realizing Evelyn was ignoring him, Daniel only let out a tired sigh.

"Wait for me to come!" daniel lazily got up from his seat and stepped up to follow Evelyn.
