She had offended someone incredible.
"This gown was made for Miss Crazy. It's perfect!"
The maids praised.
Although there was a hint of flattery in it, it was also important that she had a good foundation. Eve was a top-notch beauty.
She was a natural clothes hanger.
"Thank you." Eve smiled.
"Miss Crazy, is there anything you're dissatisfied with? Don't stand on ceremony. Tell me and I'll definitely present your most perfect side to everyone. "Daisy said excitedly.
It was as if she had met a talent scout. Eve fit her design concept perfectly. If she could be her model, she would definitely be able to design even more perfect clothes.
Eve shook her head. "I'm very satisfied with this gown. There's nothing I need to change."
"Is that so? That's good. When Fifth Lord returns, he'll be very happy to see Miss Crazy in this gown. "One of the maids smiled.
"That's right."
That person probably wouldn't be able to see her in this gown.
Eve laughed in her heart but still nodded. "Okay."

After sending the maids and the others off, it was already close to 10: 30 pm. She had already told the maids that she would sleep early tonight. When Fifth Lord returned, he probably wouldn't come in after hearing the maids' report.
It was late at night.
Eve saw that it was about time and started to move.
Using her agile speed and reaction speed, she easily avoided the guards' line of sight. After these days of scouting, she also figured out the best escape route.
It took less than ten minutes for her to stand on the villa's vines.
"That's easy." She muttered to the villa, "Goodbye, kind-hearted Mr. Wang."
Eve had only taken a few steps when the headlights of a car suddenly came on. The bright light was so bright that she could barely open her eyes. She shielded her eyes with her hands, and it took her a while to adjust to the brightness before she slowly opened her eyes. A car with its headlights on was parked right in front of her.
The front door was opened first. The driver quickly got out and opened the back door. The first thing she saw was a pair of cold black leather shoes. Then, a tall man stepped out.
Fifth Lord got out of the car. His short silver hair perfectly matched his resolute face. He looked cold and solemn and unapproachable.
However, there was a faint smile on his face. He looked at Eve, who was staring at him without saying a word and asked, "Why are you still outside so late? I remember the maid saying that you're already asleep. "
His words were spoken in a very natural manner, and he didn't immediately question her as Eve had imagined.
However, Eve knew that this man was as clear as a mirror. How could he not know what she really wanted to do?
However, if he liked acting, she would accompany him to the end.
Eve's mental fortitude was also extremely outstanding. She immediately adjusted her mood and smiled at Lord Five. "I've been tossing and turning in bed for a while now, and I couldn't fall asleep, so I came out for a walk."
This was obviously a blatant lie.
Even if she really couldn't sleep and wanted to go out for a walk, there was no need to ignore the garden and go to the trouble of going out of the villa.
However, Fifth Lord seemed to have accepted her reason. He didn't show any suspicion on his face. His thin lips parted slightly, and a faint smile appeared on his lips. He walked towards Eve and reached out his hand.
Eve subconsciously dodged back, but she forgot that there was a guardrail entangled with vines behind her.
Fifth Lord ignored her dodge and straightened her collar for her. He said indifferently, "This dress doesn't suit you. Who prepared it for you?"
Eve was wearing a black close-fitting knitted sweater. She had taken it from the maid's room. After all, there was nothing more suitable than black for escaping at night.
However, the clothes that Fifth Lord had prepared for her were all light colors. They were very feminine, very pink, and very pure. None of them were related to the night.
It was funny. She was clearly a gangster, but she yearned for white more than anyone else.
Eve didn't say anything. She couldn't say that she had stolen this dress from the maid's room.
Fortunately, Fifth Lord didn't care about this. He put his hand on her shoulder for the first time. The strong pressure made Eve feel as if a mountain was pressing down on her.
"It's very late. If you want to go for a walk, let's continue tomorrow. When I'm free, I'll accompany you to the nightclub, okay?"
Eve took a deep breath and smiled at Fifth Lord. "Okay, but my family is very strict with me. I don't know if they will allow …"
"I believe they will definitely agree."
Fifth Lord said solemnly.
Eve sneered in her heart. According to the information she gave, it would be strange if they could find her family.
She looked around and noticed that the bodyguards protecting Fifth Lord had guns at their waists. It was obviously impossible to fight them head-on.
Fine.
Anyway, the news had already been sent to the Holy Glory Palace. She would stay here for a few more days.
Fifth Lord directly sent her back to her room.
"It's late. Sleep early."
"Okay."
Eve nodded obediently.
Then, she watched as Fifth Lord closed the door. She was completely relieved.
She really didn't understand what this man wanted from her. With Fifth Lord's power, he must have found out that she wasn't the so-called lost student. He must have seen through the nonsense she made up before.
But he still believed her lies and continued to play with her.
What was he after?
Eve had thought about this question more than ten times, but she couldn't figure it out once.
She couldn't walk tonight. She might as well sleep.
But just as she lay down, she heard soft footsteps outside the room. She opened her eyes and quickly walked to the door. She opened the door vigilantly and saw two bodyguards guarding outside.
"What are you doing here?"
She asked.
The bodyguards saw her come out and bowed respectfully. Then, they replied, "Fifth Lord asked us to guard here to protect Miss Crazy."
"Protect?"
Eve raised her eyebrows. At this time, she noticed that there were shadows flashing by outside the window. It seemed that there were people guarding outside the window. What kind of protection was this? They were obviously monitoring her, right?
Thinking of that cold and unfathomable man, Eve frowned.
What was he trying to do?
In the morning.
Fifth Lord invited Eve to breakfast.
There was a variety of breakfast on the table. There was a specialty breakfast from J Country and the most common breakfast sandwich in Country E.
Eve was a little tired. Last night, her mind was full of Fifth Lord and she couldn't sleep.
Fifth Lord noticed her condition and asked, "Why are you so listless? Haven't you slept enough? "
Eve's hand that was holding the fork paused, and she smiled at Fifth Lord with an innocent yet fearful expression on her face. "Fifth Lord, I saw a figure by the window last night, and I was a little scared."
She wanted to use this as an entry point to force Fifth Lord to confess that he had imprisoned her.
Who knew that Fifth Lord was also honest and directly admitted it. "Yes, I arranged for people to protect you outside the window. According to the servants, something was stolen. I thought that there might be a thief in the villa, so I sent more people to protect you. I hope you don't mind." “
The corner of Eve's mouth twitched. That thief, could it be that he was talking about her?
This villa was heavily guarded. How could a thief sneak in?
Of course, she wouldn't admit it, but she wasn't willing to back down just like that. She put down the fork and said pitifully, "Fifth Lord, can you remove those people protecting me?"
"Oh? Why? "
Fifth Lord also stopped and looked at her seriously.
"I get scared when I hear footsteps. Those bodyguards of yours scared me …"
She was good at playing the pitiful for sympathy.
Fifth Lord's heart seemed to soften when he saw her pitiful appearance. His resolute expression also softened a lot.
Just when Eve thought that she had succeeded, she saw Fifth Lord elegantly wipe the corner of his mouth. Then, he whispered something to the subordinate behind him.
After that, Eve saw a few men in black suits walk over.
They didn't seem to be in the situation. They looked at Fifth Lord fearfully. One of them asked in a low voice, "Fifth Lord, why are you looking for us?"
Fifth Lord looked up at them and ordered the bodyguards standing on both sides, "Break their legs."
Everyone present was stunned when they heard this.
Those people immediately panicked. "Fifth Lord, did we do something wrong?"
Fifth Lord chuckled, but his smile was incomparably cruel. "You didn't do anything wrong, but your footsteps disturbed Miss Crazy."
Then, he said indifferently, "Do it."
A series of blood-curdling screams echoed in the house. Those people had their legs broken while they were still alive.
Eve's face was slightly pale.
Fifth Lord comforted her. "Alright, the people who disturbed your sleep won't make annoying footsteps in the future. You can sleep peacefully tonight."
Demon.
Eve deeply understood the meaning of this word from Fifth Lord.
Because he had always been gentle, indulgent, and doting on her, Eve felt a little giddy. She always felt that it was inconceivable that this man could make a name for himself in the underworld. But now, after seeing this scene, she realized that the man in front of her was definitely not a docile sheep. He was a lion that had yet to get angry.
"Fifth Lord, isn't this going too far?"
She laughed dryly.
When talking to this man, she became more vigilant and careful. Who knew if this man who was smiling a second ago would start killing her in the next second?
Fifth Lord smiled indifferently. He continued to stir the black coffee in front of him and said, "It's not going too far. They didn't do a good job. It's only right for them to be punished."
Then, he seemed to have thought of something and said to Eve, "Are you afraid? Sorry, I forgot that you're not in the underworld. Next time, I'll definitely do these things behind your back. Don't worry. "
Eve really wanted to spit on this belated advice.
It was clearly a demonstration, but he made it sound like he forgot. He was also an expert.
Eve could only nod sullenly.
After breakfast, Fifth Lord went out.
Eve was bored, so she strolled in the back garden. However, she found that there were many people following behind her.
She couldn't help but smile bitterly in her heart.
