Evil Duke, Please Be Gentle!

Chapter 294 – [Bonus Chapter]You Are Too Selfish!

"You do not need to worry about that, I will handle everything!" Olivia replied with a coy smile on her face that left the man in a daze. 

It felt like a dream come true! His whole body felt like he was flying high into the air. He did not realize when the girl bid him goodbye and left. All he remembered was.. She had asked him to take her out. 

His hands instinctively moved and pinched his arms.

"Hehehe" instead of feeling pain, a goofy smile formed on his lips when he felt the pain and realized that it was not a dream but reality! He was going out with Olivia tomorrow.

With a goofy grin he walked out of the palace. That he did not give any instruction to the coachman.

He just walked out and sat in and kept looking out of the window while smiling like a fool.

"Young lord, we are here!" He only came out of his foolish thoughts when he felt the knock on the carriage and turned to look out of the window to see that the carriage had stopped in front of his palace!

"Why have we come here?" a frown formed on his lips that surprised the coacheman!

"Didn't the lord say he is on holiday? Where am I supposed to take you if not your home?" Arden had not given any instructions before sitting so that coachman thought it would only be right if they would go to his home.

The boy sighed as he took reluctant steps towards the palace.

The place was brightly lit and music had filled the whole palace. The sound of laughter could be heard from afar and his hands hesitated before opening the door and a butler came to greet him hastily.

"My lord!" he looked at Arden surprised as he rarely was at the palace. Most of the time he even spends the night at the palace of Thrones.

"Mmm, I am going to spend tonight at the palace. Bring food in my room and inform me if there is any other matter!" The sound of laughter and music only intensified when he took the steps in.

The butler nodded his head as he followed the man to his room. Though he was not there, his room was neatly arranged and filled with all the luxurious things.

"You can go now. I am sure you have many things to attend to!" the butler felt a bit hesitant before bowing his head and leaving from there. He took a big sigh as he felt that taking leave was not a good idea.

Closing his eyes he laid on the bed without even changing clothes when he heard the knock on the door.

He did not need to open it to know who was there! He tossed it on the bed and decided to ignore it thinking that the person would leave after trying for a while but it did not happen.

Taking a big sigh, he walked towards the door and opened it only to find a middle aged woman standing there with her eyes narrowed on him.

"You have come home after so long yet you did not think it was important for you to come and greet your mother and now that she had come personally to meet you, you are trying to avoid her by not opening the door?

Have you learnt these kinds of manners only?" Her cold words and face full of disdain did not show any ounce of warmth while looking at the man.

"I apologize, mother. I was sleeping and did not hear the sound of the door!" He lied with a blank face but the lady only snorted.

"I wonder what kind of knight fell into that deep sleep in a few minutes. I am glad you are only an aid but not a real knight or else our empire would have been ruined because of you!" She walked past him into the room after giving him a lecture as she sat on the sofa with her legs crossed one on another.

He pursed his lips but did not reply further as he followed her into the room. He knew no matter what he said, she would find a fault in it easily. It was only a matter of tonight, he reminded himself as he collected his thoughts and sat in front of her.

"I heard that you are on leave? Is it really a leave or you are being thrown out due to your nasty behavior?" the lady raised her brow and looked straight into his eyes as she said so!

"I have applied for a leave since it had been a long time since I came back, mother. You are overthinking!" It was taking all his patience to reply to the woman with a calm smile on her face but she only snorted.

"Not that anyone was missing you here! Do you even take us as your family to come and visit us?" she chuckled coldly as she scanned the room and then his body with her cold eyes.

"I am still the owner of the house, if you are forgetting, MOTHER!" The last word came out through gritted teeth but the lady did not seem to faze even a bit.

"That is the point! You are so selfish that you want to own everything! Not even once have you thought about us or taken us as your family.

If that would have been the case you would have transferred the title of count and properties to your young brother once your father died! But no! You want everything for yourself even when you have a good post of a knight and better future. Do you still think you would be welcomed here?"
