Amelia realised that she is looking at him for a quite a while and moved her gaze from his face and started to go towards the mirror.
" I was just thinking something and didn't realised it . "
" Oh , so what are you thinking about?." He asked.
" Nothing serious, I just have a habit of constantly thinking about something, I may even forget about it after a while. It's not that important. ". She say and sit in front of the mirror and start drying her hair.
He walks towards her and take the dryer from her hand .
" Let me do it . "
He gently dry her hair and compliment her , " You have a good hair. "
Through the reflection of the mirror, she closely monitor his reaction and she couldn't help but compare his expression with the one in the novel.
There was a scene in novel , where he tried to dry the hair of original Amelia but when he approached her , his expression was not this gentle . There was a gloominess in his eyes and he was looking at her hair intensely, which scared Amelia. It was described as a dark scene. When Amelia pushes his hand away from her and say some insulting words , his emotions starts to fluctuate. He cut down her hair and looks at her face with unknown emotions. Afterward, his expression return to normal and he goes out of the mansion.
Throughout the scene, it was as if he was looking at her but at the same time he never looked at her.
" Why are you looking at me again? " Unlike the gloomy scene in the novel , this moment was very colourful and she didn't felt any other expression on his face.
" Do I look good in long hair ? ", She asked , even though she was scared of ruining the moment.
" You look good in every kind of hair. " He replied calmly.
She smile after hearing this.
" Why are you so good at it ? " She ask as she was genuinely amazed by his skills.
His hand suddenly halt after hearing this , but after looking at her bright appearance, he start his movement again.
" Don't worry, I have never done this for other girls. "
He was teasing her but Amelia laugh when he say this. Obviously she knows it the best that this man only looks at her.
After he dry her hair , he lie down on the bed quickly , as if afraid she will chase her out.
Amelia slowly goes towards the bed and sit down hesitantly on it . It was awkward for her to share a bed with someone suddenly. She didn't even get the time to adjust her mind . And not to mention, the passionate kiss today made it even worse. When she thinks about that kiss, she is not sure if she can sleep together with him.
" Are you scared? " He speak.
" No , it's just , it's too soon for us to sleep together. "
" But we are already married. Don't worry, come and lie here . " He pats the space near him.
She didn't knew what to say , so she lie down on the bed but kept a distance from him.
Asher was lying on one side and supported his head with one hand . With the other hand , he pulls her towards himself.
" You are too far. "
Looking at her staring at him he says " Nothing is gonna happen, if you don't want it . "
She knew that he never slept in the same room as real Amelia. But things are different between them . Their story is not at all limited to novel now. So she couldn't understand.
" Why? " She asked .
" I am scared, that I will scare you away. " He honestly say.
She was touched, but she didn't wanted him to feel those negative emotions
" I am not scared , I just want to start things again. Can you act like , we have just met and the girl before was not me . Can you ? ", She speak in a soft voice and look at him nervously.
Asher couldn't understand why is she saying this, but he felt that she is indeed different from before. Not just her behaviour towards him , but every other aspects too.
"Okay."
" Really " , Amelia doubted that he is only saying this because of her , because how can someone agree so easily.
" Hmm. And I want this new person to be with me. Don't leave. "
Amelia didn't knew how to react on this but she agreed.
" Okay. " She smile.
" Do you wanna go on a date with me ? " He ask her.
" Date? " She was surprised.
" When two people get to know each other , they go on a date right ? I have booked a place for tomorrow, you can go there first , then I will directly go there from work. "
" Aren't you afraid that I will run away? ". She laughs.
He pinch her nose. " Are you teasing me ?... I am afraid but I want to please you . And I can find you if you run away. "
" It's that easy? " She was surprised by his confidence.
" Of course, but it doesn't mean that you can leave me . " He will be hurt but he could not accept that himself.
" When did I said , I will leave? I don't wanna ruin the date tomorrow, and you are not ruin it either . "
" Okay, let's sleep. " He couldn't hide the happiness on his face .
He wanted to hug her tightly while sleeping again , but he somehow controlled himself.
Next day, she wakes up and look around but couldn't find Asher. She asks a maid and get to know that he already went to work .
" So early? " . Amelia wonder .
On the other hand , the people working for Asher were all tensed.
" It seems like boss wants to leave early. He came early in the morning and is doing all the work at the speed of light . ". One employee say .
" I have never seen boss like this, but he is amazing. He is doing it so effortlessly. ". Other employee join in.
In the afternoon, a worker bring a dress to Amelia.
" Boss said that , you can wear this on the date. "
Amelia looks at the dress and find it very beautiful. She wanted to wear a dress from the closet , after all she have not tried them all and they are so lovely. But this dress is really beautiful, and she is actually impressed by his taste .
