Evil Duke, Please Be Gentle!-Chapter 480 Having Vacations(Chapter Preview)
"Why was that man thrown out?" Evan could feel him getting irritated again and she could not help but wonder if they would ever have peace in their life!
"Who? Ethan?" asked the blurry man as he stared at the beautiful girl that was drenched in rain and licked his lips but did nothing to cross the line.
"That guy is a regular customer here. He always came bragging that he would win it big, but each time lost all his money and asked for borrowing telling he would win the last game only to repeat the same course and then be thrown out.
If we will not throw him out, he will only continue to ask for more loans from others. We run a gambling house but we did not want to give loans that others could not reply.
Since killing them or threatening them would only bring trouble from the knights.
Throwing them is for the best. Do not worry, he will be back tomorrow with more money. These days he had won a lottery and brought more and more gold, giving him a chance to sit among nobles.
I wonder why he was still trying to win in gambling when he was already rich. Either his source is not reliable in the long run or he is just addicted to it." The man shook his head but smiled brightly when Evan passed him two gold coins and nodded his head.
Bowing his head a bit he whispered, "if you need any other service, you can always come and look for me here. My name is Chester, tell anyone and they will bring you to me.'' The man had an ambiguous smile on his face as he gave him a once over again before leaving from there.
She snapped her head back to Leo's direction with dread. She was a dead meat if she noticed that. He would really chop her hands and feet this time so that she would not be able to go out of home again, saying she was cuckolding him but took a breath of relief when she noticed that he was talking to someone else in the other corner of the room but her eyes narrowed.
Leo took out a bag full of gold coins and gave it to the man with a thick belly pot in the name of stomach and with so many gold rings in his hand.
The man grinned as he snatched the bag and then nodded his head hard.
After exchanging a few more words, he came towards her when she looked at him suspiciously.
? "What were you taking there and why did you pay him so much money?" They have only played two games and won both of them so she did not understand why he paid.
His eyes flickered as he looked back but the man was already gone.
"Shall we leave?" he asked in a tone that could not be refused while he placed his hands on her shoulder and turned her towards the exit when she sighed.
It was completely different from the date she had imagined but she knew that his mind was back to the matters of Ethan. 𝗳𝔯𝙚e𝒘e𝚋𝘯𝚘ν𝙚l.𝑐o𝙢
As they sat in the carriage, she opened her mouth to explain to him that he should not interfere much in the matters of Ethan. Though Leo was taking him as a member of the family, that boy has not grown up with affections. So he did not understand the goodwill of others.
He looked at everyone as if they were trying to betray him or rob him from what belonged to him.
If leo would be rash, then it would only be fatal for their budding relationships. But before she could say a word, he had already closed his eyes.
The look on his face was telling that he did not want to be disturbed, so she could only close her opened mouth and sigh as she closed her eyes too.
These days she is feeling too lethargic and tired. For some reason she felt like she was not left with any energy even when she recently had a good meal or energy juices.
She wanted to talk with another woman who had already given birth to know if they felt the same but she could not remember any.
Her mother was already gone, so was her birth mother. Wait! Her eyes gleamed as she knocked on the door of the carriage ma,king Leo frown.
"I want to visit my aunt in the village. They were not able to attend my marriage and it has been days since I have seen Martin and Chris.
You have even promised the boy to bring him to the castle and show him how you train but you just forgot about it." she blamed him with aggrieved eyes when she noticed that it was not going to work.
His face had a frown that was telling it was useless to argue with him but just as she was about to argue, he nodded his head.
"It is too late. So it would not be good to go now, you can go tomorrow with Eve." 𝑓𝚛𝚎ℯ𝘸𝙚𝘣𝚗𝘰νeƖ.c𝒐𝐦
"No! I mean.. I was thinking of living there for a day or two. Since no one knows that I married you yet. I do not think there would be any trouble." a frown formed on his lips as he was not going to let her live there no matter what.
"Recently I have been feeling very tired and lethargic in the palace. As if there is no mental peace. I want to live with them only for a day or two to calm my mind.
I can not bear so much pressure." as it makes me think that it would affect my child.
He was about to deny her again strictly when he recalled how her face looks pale these days and she was spending so much time in the washroom.
Often he had seen her leaving her food halfway and running towards the washroom. It would be better to have some change then.
"Fine i will send you tomorrow but with two knights for your protection."
