Evil Duke, Please Be Gentle!-Chapter 618 Waiting For Him?

"Yes..? yes! I have the noted address.`` The maid left and came back soon with the address in her hands.

Eli smiled and nodded her head but it was so forced.

She stared at the contents of the list and then left the palace in hurry. She did not ask Evan to come with her even when Evan looked at her with worry.

"You stay here and take care of Renee and Leo. it might be a trap." she patted the shoulders of Evan but it only worried Even more.

"I will ask Andrw to accompany me and ask Ethan to come here and give him this letter as soon as he comes back." she asked when Evan took a deep breath but nodded her head.

She knew that her stubbornness would only worry them further.

Eli hugged Even before leaving from there with urgent steps.

His eyes were filled with worry while Evan kept staring from the window.

The carriage soon left from there and Evan sighed. She was feeling so uneasy.

As she walked back to the room where Leo was taking rest and sat beside Renee's bed, so many thoughts started to fill her mind.

She took a deep breath trying to calm herself but it did not work.

"My lady, lord Ethan is back." the words of the maid brought her back to the room and she stood up abruptly.

"Ask him to come here at this instant." she ordered with a hasty voice as she ran towards the door but then shook her head. "No wait! Take me where he is." She followed the maid who looked at her with a confused face but nodded her head.

Ethan was taking off his coat and running a hand in his hair to get rid of the cold when he saw the door opening without even a knock and frowned.

"Who.. Evangeline? Did something happen?" His fatigue was immediately replaced by worry.

He had fought all day in the court about justice and asked them to send all their reinforcements to capture that man. He was dangerous. He did not think twice before using explosives in the palace.

But what terrified him further was.. He was able to do it without anyone knowing and was even able to get rid of it when the explosives blasted where he was standing.

That man was really terrifying. He only left the palace when they sent the troops to look for him. 𝐟𝙧ℯ𝑒𝒘𝐞𝒃𝗻𝒐ѵ𝘦𝑙.com

He was about to go and look for Leo after a rest.

"Is he okay?" he asked as Evan's face was so pale as if she had lost all blood from her body.

"He is fine. Better! But I am not here for that reason. Ethan, you need to leave right now.'' She walked closer and gave him the letter she had found.

He stared at her with a confused look as he took the letter and appended it with confusion when his eyes squinted and his face turned darker.

"There is no time. It has already been hours since they left. You should go and check. I want to come too but I can not leave Renee alone." he patted her shoulders.

He wanted to tell her that everything was fine but when it came to that man, he could not be sure.

"I will try my best to bring her safe." he said with a heavy voice when she nodded her head.

"Eli and Andrw had gone looking for her. Maybe the matter is already solved but I still want you to go and check." he nodded and then picked up his coat from the bed and walked out of the room when she stared at the sky and prayed to the lord.

She did not understand why things were going that bad. Everything was fine and perfect just a few weeks ago. It was all because of a man.

Just how greedy a person could be.

As Ethan took the carriage, his heart was beating so fast that he felt that it was going to explode. Hannah was in her last months and her condition was not that well.

If only she had not left but waited for him. Though he knew that it was impossible.

"Faster!" he asked the carriage man as the man was riding the carriage too slowly. He did not even know how much time had passed and how late he was.

He was never able to be with her when she needed him. Leaving her alone to bear with everything.

He looked at the passing scenery with his hands turning colder and his face corearing with sweat.

What if that man used Hannah to blackmail all of them. He would never be able to give up on her but at the same time he would not be able to force others to choose her instead of the empire since it was about the safety of everyone.

"I said, faster! Are you even hearing me?" he shouted again when the man trembled and increased the speed of the carriage.

It was already fastest since they were in the busy areas of the capital and riding faster could be dangerous.

But he did not dare to say to his master when he looked at his red eyes and cold face.

"Stop here." Ethan did not wait for the carriage to stop properly as he jumped out of it surprising the coachmen who looked at the scene with shock but before he could ask him, the man was already lost in the crowd. 𝙛𝔯𝒆e𝔀e𝗯𝓷𝗼𝘃e𝚕.𝒄𝗼𝗺

"It will be better that I wait here," he said with a sigh.

Ethan was expecting a few nights with Eli and Andrww but to his surprise the palace was silent and dark.

Now he regretted not bringing anyone as he was in a hurry. But didnt Even say that they left hours ago?

Could it be that the matter was already solved? With some caution he walked closer and opened the door.

"Welcome Ethan! You took too long to come here."
