Evil Duke, Please Be Gentle!

"Why should I trust you? Do you think I could not see the act of the royal family? I am here to inform you to stop playing tricks.

I will find a way to break your and Eli's engagement. You do not need to play against her!" Andrew could feel the aura he was leaving to pressurize him. Even when he had trained all his life, he was still not an opponent of the man standing in front of him.

"You can take the decision after meeting him. I understand that you did not trust me after recent events but that was done by my father.

I am not supporting him but you. Even if you plan to claim what belongs to you, I will support you, your majesty!" only the address was enough to show his intentions.

Calling someone his majesty was a treason and as crazy as George was, he wouldn't think twice before punishing his own son when it comes to his throne.

"I only want you to meet him once." Andrew added when he saw the cold eye of the duke getting cracked who still had a fierce look on his face.

He wanted to refuse and return but something in his heart was telling him that he would regret it when he stared at the clear eyes of the young boy.

He knew that Andrew was not supporting his father, but he could never be sure. What if he was hiding it to trap them.

He had thought that if he would lay low and only perform his duties then he would not irk George and would live his life peacefully but that did not seem to be the case now.

"If you still refuse, I will make sure that he will have a comfortable life and I will support your decision since I did not want to hurt her with the truth too." Finally William raised his head and stared at the boy with mixed emotions but did not reply.

As proud as Eli is about nobility, he was sure she would not be able to bear it but could he be so cruel to his own blood?

"If he does not want to go, then I will." Andrew was shocked when he heard the sound of footsteps and saw Eli coming out from the other side of the garden.

"You!" both of them were frozen to their space when they saw him taking slow steps towards them.

Her eyes were blank and her face was cold, there was no sign of pain or hurt on her calm face.

"Yes, I have been here since the start and I have heard your conversation.

Not only that, I have heard your conversation with Terrain and Caleb. I know everything, father. I have confirmed with Theo. so, if you are thinking of an excuse or a lie, do not try." her voice had no hurt or pain but a certain calmness that gave them an eerie feeling.

It w0uld have been a different case if they would have informed her about the truth but not only had she found out about it, she was hre to face the reality without emotions.

It made them wonder how much she was dead from inside. To lose her name, her family, her position and everything that she had thought hers in a minute and to announce that her whole life was a lie!

"Eli i!"

"I do not know why we are still standing here. The lord of the Thawyne family is waiting for us in the room. Shall we?" She cut her father who was looking at her with a pleading face.

She knew what he was going to say, he was going to tell her to leave the matter to him and return back to the palace but she was not going to back away after coming this far.

Without waiting for them to reply, she started walking towards the room. The knights who were following Andrew looked at the whole scene with hesitating eyes.

But since Andrew had not asked them to stop her, they let her enter the room when she passed them a dominating look.

Adele, who was leaning on the sofa with a face full of exhaustion, opened her eyes when she felt someone entering the room.

She was ready for the piercing look of the duke who always looked at her as if she was a pest that had infiltrated their house and taken their peace.

She braced herself for another death glare when she saw only Eli was standing there. Wait! Eli!

"I am here to see my bro. The lord of Thyme family." Adele was surprised to see there was no hesitation or embarrassment on the face of the girl who came to know that she was not a noble anymore.

She was impressed at how Eli was carrying her proud and aloof face even after losing everything and nodded her head.

"He is on the other side of the room" Adele pointed at the one faced glass from where they could see Ethan drinking his juice with an ecstatic face.

He was looking happy only by a simple meal and then he leaned on the sofa with a content look on his face.

Eli walked towards opening the door surprising Adele, "are you going to meet him? I mean.."

"Why? Do you think that I will harm him?" taken aback by her confrontation, Adele's face gave away as she pursued her lips.

First she lost her fiance and then her position, if Adele would have been at her place even she would have thought to pay a good sum to the boy and send him away or kill him. Then how could a cold woman like Eli would not think of that! But when she stared at her cold eyes, she was not able to say so,

Eli took a deep breath and then opened the door when Adele did not say a word,

"Hello, I am Elizabeth, I am your sister, my lord."
