Evil Duke, Please Be Gentle!

"Your makeup is done, my lady. Give it a look and tell me if you want to change anything!" Finally the ladies let her go and both Eve and Eli stared at her in marvel!

She was looking like a real duchess with that elegant and aloof aura around her. Her eyes were sparkling like gems!

"You are looking stunning, Evangeline! Brother is going to lose in the matter of looks from you!" Eve muttered with joy as if she was proud of the fact his handsome brother would not be able to compare in front of the looks of his wife.

"Say, shall we ask for his diamond mine when he comes to see her!

I am sure he was going to peek before going out!" Eli rolled her eyes as Eve's eyes sparkled, she could already see herself swimming in the diamones of every shape.

"Tsk! Father is with him all the time, so he would not get the chance! You know, my father said to me that he was worried, leo would run away and would not marry. That is why, he is keeping an eye on him!" Eli shook her head about the absurdity of the thought, as her eyes gleamed,

"I wanted to tell my father that Leo could run away with Evan but not without her! And he should be worried if Evan would change her decision to marry leo or not"

"I know right! We should better pay attention to her instead!" they both laughed as they gave a high five to each other while Evan looked down in embarrassment!

It was a long time ago when she had run away! The situation had changed and she did not want to leave anymore.

At some point of time, she had already accepted all of them as her family and now living without them sounded impossible!

"Alright! Enough of the jokes, I am going to check on the guests, and when I will send a maid, you will bring her out with you! Do not leave her alone, Eve!" Eve nodded with full sincerity as Eli patted Evan's shoulder and left the room with a cold face again.

Even when she smiled, there was aloofness on her face that could not be gotten rid of!

"So, tell me, are you nervous! If you want, I can share a few tips with you!" Evan wanted to ask what experience a single like her had!

She was sure Eve had not even kissed anyone! She was the one who was more experienced here but she stopped herself from bragging about it.

Seeing that they both did not have any need of theirs, the ladies left the room after bowing their heads.

Just as they left, the door was knocked and a maid came in that brought a look of surprise on the face of Eve!

"That was earlier than expected! I thought it would still take half an hour!" Eve helped Evan in standing and adjusted the frills of her dress by herself kneeling on the ground.

"My lady, I am not here to ask for the bride!" Eve blinked as she turned to stare at the maid with confusion!

"My lady, his highness is calling you. He said he needed your help urgently!"

"But!" then Evan would be alone! She looked at the maid reluctantly and then at Evan who smiled!

"It is okay, if fa..ther have called you then there must be something urgent! You can leave, if you are worried about leaving me alone then the maid could stay with me!" she assured as she nodded her head and pushed Eve towards the door who sighed!

Even though she knew that father would not call her without a reason!

"Alright, tell me where your father is, I will go by myself, while you will stay with her and do not leave her alone in any case!" The maid bowed her head as she felt the pressure of her voice.

With an apologetic look, she patted the shoulders of Evan too and then leaned closer to her ear,

"I will come soon and give you tips! Do not be worried!" with a sly grin on her face, she left the room when the maid bowed her head and walked in closer.

"My lady, your lips look parched! Shall I bring some juice for you! You will not be able to have anything for a long time later!" offered the maid kindly as she stared at her face!

With a frown Evan looked in the mirror, she did not feel like her lips were parched but drinking something would be good since she could feel the dryness in her throat!

"Alright but then you have to help me in touch up!" she did not want to smudge her lipstick before kissing Leo!

Wait! What was she even thinking! In her embarrassment, she did not notice when the maid left the room!

"You are being more and more perverted these days!" if this would continue, she was not sure if leo was going to eat her clean or she was going to take the charge.

Her cheeks turned redder yet a sly grin formed on her face at the thought!

"My lady, your juice!" the maid bowed her head as she entered with an orange juice in her hands.

Just as Evan took a sip. Her brows furrowed and her face turned ugly.

"What kind of taste is that! It's too sour!" she placed the glass on the table without taking much of it!

"I did not know, my lady! I took it from the reception room!" the maid trembled too exaggeratingly that confused Evan! Was she too rude just a while ago!

"It is fine! But take it away, I did not need it anymore!" with tears welling in her eyes, the maid nodded and left the room, leaving Evan stunned!

"Wow! She even cried!" Evan continued to stare at herself in the mirror unsure if she was rude when she felt her eyes getting burnt!

She blinked a few times as she felt tears coming out of her eyes and her vision turning blurry!

Touching her forehead, she held her breath as she felt her head start to spin too!

"Not yet! Evan..!!" She tried to hold her in but her eyes continued to turn blurry and soon she felt her vision turning completely dark.

Her body lost her balance as she was bending towards the mirror! With the pressure, the chair was pushed backwards and she fell on the ground.

But just as her body was going to hit the ground. A pair of hands took hold of her. The person patted her cheeks a few times.

"My lady, are you okay? My lady!!" The girl continued to confirm but when Evan did not react a bit even after shaking for a while, the girl took a breath of relief!

"I am sorry, my lady! But we have to go!"
