Evil Duke, Please Be Gentle!

"I still did not understand your reasons!" Ethan sighed as he looked at Evan with worried eyes but she just smiled warmly.

"Then you do not need to. If you want to bring me early, then you have to fix the date of your marriage soon. I will be waiting." he shook his head at his nonchalant behavior.

As much as he trusts her, he will never be able to understand her reasons.

Though he was the eldest one, she's the one who was mature.

Hannah stared at the whole scene from a distance, a look of regret and guilt filled her face. It must be due to her!

What if Evan told everything to Ethan and he left her. That hazel seems to be too interested in him these days.

She held her belly tightly as fear instilled in her heart. Even if she was abandoned, she would not let her daughter suffer the way she had suffered in the past.

She would grow up with love and care and would never let her feel the absence of her father.

She closed her eyes and promised herself that her child would be her priority.

Evan shook her head when their eyes met but Hannah was not able to get the hint.

She turned and walked into the carriage when Ethan went in.

Ethan was already looking out of the window. The moment, Evan had refused to come, Ethan had not said a single word to her.

Was he already blaming her?

Her body shrunk to the corner and she looked out of the window.

As the carriage started riding, Ethan turned to look at her, surprised that she was so silent today when he noticed that her eyes were closed.

It must be a tiring day for her! He was so immersed in his own thoughts and worried about his family that he did not congratulate her well.

It was their kid.. Their child was going to take birth.

He could not explain how happy he was!

But he did not wake her up. She must be exhausted. He adjusted the cushion behind her and closed his eyes too.

He had to work hard. He did not know the reason, but he felt that Evan was worried.. No, I'm afraid of something.

Was it because she was afraid of spies or another attack? He sighed! He should have paid more attention.

But he already had a plan in his mind. As the carriage reached the palace, Hannah had still not opened her eyes. He waited for her to wake up but when she did not move an inch, he decided to help her in.

He opened the door of his side and walked out of the carriage without looking back.

When Hannah opened her eyes, she was sitting alone in the carriage.

She blinked and looked around. It was already night, and the carriage was parked in front of the palace. Ethan was already gone.

"When did his lord leave?" she asked as she walked out of the carriage. Her maids were waiting for her at the door.

"The lord had left half an hour ago. He asked us to take you in and he would be back soon. But…" the both looked hesitant as they looked at each other.

The eyes of Hannah sunk.. She should have known!

"But what?" the maid lowered their heads.

"That lady is still waiting for the lord when all the other guests left a long time ago. She said that her matter was still not over and she would wait no matter how much time it would take.`` The voice of the maid was getting lower and lower when Hannah's face darkened.

"Is that so?" she smiled coldly, "then i must help her in handling her matter or she would be worried." Hannah chuckled as she walked into his chamber instead of her room.

The mauds were surprised to see her and their faces pale as if they were thieves caught red handed.

Hannah did not give them another look. Her thoughts or emotions could not be read through her blank face as she kept walking.

"Oh lord, how could you say that? You are the one promised me and now you are backing away. Is it the sign of a gentleman?" she complained with a teary voice as if she was in too much pain.

"I did not understand you, what are.." bam! The door of the room opened when Hannah found the girl in a tattered dress while the face of Ethan was scratched.

His clothes were looking disheveled but his face was cold.

When he looked at Hannah, his eyes widened and he hurriedly pushed the girl farther away but.. The marks of her lipstick were already on his shirt.

It looked like she had disturbed them at a wrong moment. She paused!

"Hannah! What are you doing here? I was about to come to take you out of the carriage." she laughed when she looked at his panicked face.

Not only was his face red but his eyes trembled and sweat covered his face. He even stammered when he walked closer to her when she shook her head.

"It had been half an hour. Do you want me to wait all night when it is too cold?" she asked as she walked in.

The girl looked away as if she did not want to face the mistress of the house after sleeping with her husband.

"I wonder how stubborn you are.." she looked at Hazel as she said so. "I have already warned you in the morning but you did not seem to listen." she held the arms of Hazel as she dragged her out of the room.

"Those who did not listen to the words. I know how to teach them and make them follow my words." She dragged the woman out with much force and threw her out of the door.

"If you think that your lousy act would shake my trust over him then you are wasting your time. Now leave or I will ask the knights to throw you out."
