Evil Duke, Please Be Gentle!

Chapter 292 – [Bonus Chapter] Same Voice!

"Why would that be needed? Isn't the girl working as your aide for today? She should be competent to do all the work done by an aide!?" a look of disdain filled his eyes, he did not know what others had seen in her.

Her daughter was much more qualified and prettier than this Evan. Why was he so crazy about her?

"No matter what post she is working for me! As my wife, I could ask her, but you are not qualified to be served by her.

Is there any other matter you want to discuss or you are here just for insulting her. What even made you think that I would not speak against it?"  Leo completely let go of the respect of the man as he asked him coldly, making the eyes of the duke widened.

His face turned red and his chest heaved up and down with anger.

"Bang!!" his hands clenched into a fist and he banged the table with full force.

"What do you mean by this? Do not forget that our families are in the alliance of peace. Your behavior could create rifts between the families and even wage a war!" The low growl was so strong that Evan trembled!

  She did not want to be the reason for the argument between the families. Her big eyes were filled with fear when she shook her head looking at Leo, as if asking him to not stretch it further but he did not listen!

"If protecting the respect of the lady of the house is insulting to others. Then I apologized, but I couldn't help it.

If you think it would be an appropriate reason for waging a war then as the head of the knights, I would not show my back to you!" the words came out nonchalantly as he picked up a file and started concentrating on it.

"Do you need any other assistance?" Leo asked in a cold voice as he did not even raise his head and continued to work as if the man did not deserve any attention.

Raging with anger, the man felt he was being insulted again, he stood up and stomped his feet when a scowl formed on his lips as his eyes fell on the girl who would definitely be enjoying his condition.

"You will regret it!" Leo rolled his eyes at the threat! Both father and daughter only knew one line! Did they think they had come so far with their help or did they think that they could do anything just because both of them were dukes.

"It was nice meeting you. Since you are in a hurry, I will not stand on the formalities of escorting you out!" he flipped the page of the file he was reading as his blank and hollow voice echoed in the room.

Gnashing his teeth, duke Grasitias walked out of the room and banged the door with full force behind him.

He walked straight out of the building towards his house. He did not have any rationality to work further.

His mind was filled with the insult Leo had done! He had only asked the girl to serve the tea! He did not understand why Leo was so furious! It was not like his wife was a higher nobled that had never served anyone before.

He could not help but fume and cuss again and again when he recalled the embarrassment he had faced today!

He would make sure that the family would pay for it. Everyone has their day! His day would come soon too.

When the carriage stopped, he did not wait for the guard to open the door, but opened it with such force that it shook at its place for a while, creating the sound of creaking for a long time.

"My lord!" an array of maids came and stood in two parallel lines on both sides but he did not spare a glance to any of them as he walked in with a dark face.

Feeling the coldness emitting from his body, the maids tried their best to make themselves invisible.

As soon as he entered the house, his steps halted when he saw Arden walking towards the door with his daughter who had a shy smile on her face.

His eyes turned darker and a thin layer of frost formed on his face.

Feeling his presence both Arden and Olivia halted for a second before resuming to walk towards him.

"My lord!"

"Father! You are early today!" The girl walked towards her father and hugged him with sidelines but the duke continued to stare at the side.

"What are you doing here?" had Leo not insulted him enough that his aide had even the balls to enter his house and spy on them.

"Father, Arden had helped me yesterday. So, i invited him to have a tea with us.'' The girl realized that father was not in a good mood and it only worsened when he saw Arden there.

She did not need to be told that he must have had an argument with Leo. an indescribable emotion filled her chest as the thought crossed her mind but she curbed all those thoughts away as she held the hands of her father.

"He was about to leave! You seem to be stressed! Shall I brew your favorite tea and we have it together in the garden!" In a soft and comforting voice, she tried to appease her father who nodded after a pause and left from there without saying a word yet she knew that he had only let the matter go for now but would definitely question her later.

"Have I created trouble for you, my lady?" asked the man in a voice filled with concern. The voice was so warm that she thought how it would sound if Leo would ask her in the same voice!
