“think harder”

Episode-182 “think harder”    Ernest’s POV:   Next day,                               I am in my office, I am furious as Davis told me about Celeste having lunch with them… those two!!!! But I can’t do anything for now… my goal is not them, I want my Celeste to accept this marriage and end her anger…     I massaged my forehead in frustration, Davis asked, “should I ask Mr. Aaron to start the work?” I sigh… I said, “no… we can’t give Steven a opportunity  to get closed to Celeste… I need to be patient..”  Davis nodded.    I asked, “don’t give Celeste work till she asks for… she is overworking… she didn’t need to learn about her father’s work but she is doing it too…” Davis said, “ok sir…”    I asked, “what is she doing now?”    Davis said, “Ma’am is in her cabin…” I said, “you may leave…”     I pulled my cigar and lighted it up, I kept smoking…. I have too much anger but more worry about her…. strange, even though she did wrong I want to punish others not her… and I am not doing anything in fear of losing her… fear… fear… I hate this word…. But it’s sweet when it comes to Celeste…   I should see her… I got up from my chair and went to her cabin, I don’t want her to be bothered, I want to see what she does when I am not around. I went to her cabin and the opened the door. I was surprised but chuckled as I saw her sleeping, as she was resting her face on the table… she fell asleep in the office again… I got close to her and just kept my eyes on her.     I noticed her handwritten notes, she was studying, so my love you are tricking me… you finished your work and using extra hours to study…. Aren’t you too tired?... but if it was not ‘you’ tricking me then I would be really angry….    I sat in front of her and kept looking at her… I don’t need reason to stare at her… her beautiful face  and that innocent sleepy pout is everything…  I felt vibration on the table. I noticed her phone and picked it up…     Steven Murray is calling her. I smirked and answered it, I didn’t speak… I heard Steven Murray, “Celeste… I am sorry for what I said.. I shouldn’t have said that to your bodyguard… I didn’t liked him speaking in between you and me… I will agree to give you some time to think about the engagement..” I smirked… he is saying sorry… and was planning to get engaged, but Celeste rejected I guess…   I said, “forget about the engagement…”     Steven said in shock, “Prince Ernest?... what are you doing with her phone… give her the phone…”    I replied, “she might not be in state to attend the call…” he asked in desperation, “What you done to her?.. I will kill you if you touch her …”   I want to laugh but I am angry, I said, “I am her husband I don’t need your permission…. Anyways my wife is sleeping here.. she needs rest…”   Steven asked, “s-sleeping??... what you did to her?”    I said, “what do you think I did that made her tired to sleep at day time in front of me?..” I just got silence.. I smirked and said, “think harder” I chuckled…  I ended the call. sorry, love…. But I can’t see anyone with you…. you don’t know what is Steven Murray….. I will show you his real face…
