NovelEnglishChapter 573
The sky was dark, and scattered moonlight fell on the balcony.
The man’s figure was straight and slender.
Adina pulled the blanket away before
she gently got off the bed. She held a dagger that she had hidden in the
drawer as she slowly walked toward the man on the balcony.
Then, she pulled the balcony door open, lunged forward, and restricted
the man‘s arm with one hand. At the next second, she pointed the dagger at the man‘s neck.
The man was forced to turn around. When the moonlight shone on his face, his features looked clear a
nd blurry at the same time.
“Duke, why… why are you standing on the balcony?”
Adina quickly released him and threw the dagger on the tea table on the balcony.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtShe scrutinized the man under the faint moonlight.
His illuminated features appeared profound and cold, while his
gaze was intense. He just emanated an unwelcoming aura.
It was just like when they first met.
No, this man‘s aura was even colder today than when they first met.
Adina looked at him and asked, “What happened to
the fire at the cemetery today? Did you find anything?”
The man just stared at her before he suddenly took one step forward and held her face. “What
did you just call me?”
“I called you ‘Duke…”
As soon as Adina said that, she felt embarrassed.
They used to be together every day before the wedding, so this man would shamelessly call her “Dear.”
He even wanted her to call him “Dear” in return.
She told him that she would do it after the wedding, initially thinking that she could trick him.
Unexpectedly, this man still remembered what she said.
She cleared her throat and said, “I‘ll call you ‘Dear.’ Is that okay,‘ Dear?”
Her ears
and the side of her face turned red in the moonlight, giving her the charm and shyness of a young girl.
The man‘s gaze became more profound. He put his hands on her shoulders and caressed
her discreetly.
“It‘s our wedding night,” he said in a husky voice.
When Adina heard that, she knew what he wanted to do.
Right as she wanted to reply, she was taken aback.
Why did Duke‘s voice sound so strange?
She frowned and asked, “Did you burn your throat?”
“There was
too much fog and dust earlier, so my throat‘s a little irritated.” The man moved his hands from her shoul

to her waist.
Then, he slapped her behind.
“This night is precious. Let‘s go to bed.”
The man held her as they entered the bedroom.
Adina suddenly felt extremely uncomfortable.
She had been with Duke for some time, and this man would never be that uncouth with her…
The gesture of slapping her behind made her feel slightly insulted.
Duke was a highly–refined man. Where did he learn this gesture from?
She tried to suppress her discomfort, but the man was getting closer to her.
He pinned her down on the bed and moved his lips along her neck.
