Evil Duke, Please Be Gentle!

Chapter 322 – Only You Are Left!

"Since the marriage is set, do you have any wish on how it should be? Or do you want to invite anyone?" she finally blinked and stared at all of them who were already writing invitation letters and making the list of arrangements needed.

Before she could open her mouth, the door of the room swung open and ELi and Eve entered too.

"Oh my, is the maid telling the truth?" they both were looking shocked just like Evan but their eyes were filled with joy!

"Father, I want the best dress in the empire! I want everyone's eyes on me!" William chuckled when he heard his youngest daughter who had a dreamy look on her face.

"Don't you know that all the guests have eyes only for the couple. And Evan would wear the best dress!" Eli rolled her eyes as she walked towards Evan who was still staring at all of them like a lost child.

She never liked the girl much, but as the time passed, she had started to feel a bit of affinity with her too. She gave a death glare to her brother who was still clinging to the girl as if his life depended on it! Had he even forgotten that his father was in the same room.

"Shameless hooligan!" she mumbled as she pulled the scared girl from his arms.

Leo's eyes narrowed on Eli but she did not back away and stared with same force when they both heard their father.

"It is fine, let her have the best dress! After all, we have to find a suitor for her in the party too!"

The smug smile on the face of Even turned stiff. Her grip on her dress tightened as she felt her heart was stabbed badly! 

But when she noticed that everyone was looking at her with worry, She looked away and spoke dramatically,

"You want to get rid of me, because I spend most of your money. Don't you? But I will not leave you so easily. Like a leech I will continue to be with you and spend all your treasure! Hmph!" 

"Hahahaha. You can take it all. I have earned it for all of you only!" William shook his head as he wrote more names on the papers.

It has been a long time since they all have been collected here and tal;lking so leisurely. As if the gloomy dark clouds that had covered the sky were finally leaving with the bright rays of the sun entering in again.

He felt like a burden had left his chest and now only happiness could come in.

His eyes continued to look at his bickering kids who seldom take out their bare emotions and a tear started to well up in his eyes too.

"Your highness, are you okay?" asked the man in a bit worried voice when William shook his head.

"In the past few years, I have never felt any better than this!" Though he still missed his wife badly, he was glad that he was able to take hold of part of her soul.

How long had he kept looking at them with traces of tears in his eyes as he finally spoke, 

"Alright! Do not bicker! Go to your rooms and make a list of things you need or the decoration or menu you want.

After lunch, we will start the preparations officially!" Though he was talking normally, his imposing aura still remained and they all bowed their heads.

"Yes, father!" speaking in unison they were about to leave the room while Evan was still holding hands of Eli instead of Leo, as if he would devour the soul of the little girl, was stopped.

"Evangeline, I still need to talk to you personally. Can you wait for a bit!" Evan turned her head and nodded.

She thanked Eli who was looking at the girl with concerned eyes and walked back into the room when others left. Leo continued to run and steal glances at the girl as if she was going to be separated from him for ages!

"Tsk! You are acting too exaggerated! That way, you will take my place in being a drama queen!" Leo finally looked away from Evan and turned to see his sister with a smirk on his face.

"What are you single like you know about a lover's emotion and will to stay by each other's side all this time!" he had said the words casually to get a snort from his sister who seems to be too moody these days.

But his eyes narrowed when she looked away and walked out from there silently!

"What happened to her?" Eli shook her head, even though she did not understand what had happened to Eve!

It feels like her heart was broken. But no matter how much she tried to trace back, she could not find any man that was linked to her.

"Maybe she is feeling that she is the only single one left and wants to have someone by her side too!" That was the only feasible reason she could think of. 

Leo did not look convinced at all as he continued to stare at the disappearing figure of his sister, but nodded!

"I will talk to her, you do not need to worry about it. You should pay more attention to Evan, she was looking pale and worried with all the sudden outburst." Eli turned her head and stared at her brother with uneasy and hesitant eyes who was still looking away when she coughed to clear her voice, finally getting his attention on her. 

Her face had turned a bit pink, as she asked in a soft voice, 

Is she.. Cough cough! Is she really pregnant, Leo?
