Evil Duke, Please Be Gentle!

"Wait right there, Evangeline. How dare you do so?"

\'Not again!\' Evan closed her eyes and took a deep breath. The girl was like a leech, no matter how many times Evan try to ignore her, she did not leave her way!

Evan took a deep breath and decided to ignore her, since talking to her would only mean waiting time further but Olivia was not ready to let go.

"Did you forget that he even asked me if he could bring his family to meet my parents? Every man is the same while you are nothing but an emotional fool!" it would be a lie if Evan said that she did not feel a thing. 

Her heart clenched into her ribcage but she curbed that feeling. She knew that it was going to happen sooner or later since he was only using her as his cover.

"Since that is the case, why are you still not satisfied?" asked Evan back but without waiting for the answer, she turned and left leaving the stunned Olivia behind.

"You! How dare you! Do you think you can go that easily after insulting me?

I am not jealous but worried that a con woman like you would continue to shed her fake tears and use the sympathy of the family to be a part of them." though there was a sneer on her face, her eyes were filled with jealousy.

Evan rolled her eyes. If she would reply and pass snarky comments then Olivia would bug her and call her a wicked woman and now that she was not saying anything and avoiding her, she still did not let her leave.

She pitied Leo for being with a woman like her! She was like a glue that could never be gotten rid of.

"Oh right, someone like you has no option but to suck up on someone to get into high society. Who knew what method had you used to get into the good grace of Duke Thawne. What else did you have except your beauty!" Olivia eyes Even up and down with a look of scorn.

What else could she have to get the grace of so many nobles. Even today, how she had tried to steal all her limelight! When she thought of that, she lost all her manners and logic and gritted her teeth.

"Do you think you will be able to be a noble overnight just because you have a good body? Mark my words they all will use you and then discard you. You were born lowly and would always stay a lowly human being!\'\' Even though she had not been accepted as the wife of Leo, she was still the daughter of the duke, but Evan was just a peasant!

"Then even if you beg… ouch!!`` Before she could speak further about selling her body, Evan raised her leg and kicked her on her knee!

It staggered her and due to her long gown getting entangled, she fell on the ground. Her eyes widened and she looked at Evan in disbelief!

"Why did you kick me?" 

"Because I do not want to dirty my hand and at the same time you would have stopped me if you had seen me raising a hand on you!!"  she asked as she shrugged her shoulders.

She had thought of avoiding the girl. Even when she had started speaking about the physical relation with her and her respect, she tried her best to bear it. Thinking that it did not matter what she said, she controlled herself. 

But when Olivia added her name with duke Thawyne and Leo together, she could not bear it anymore. She felt furious and could not help but beat the girl further.

"You.. you! How dare you!" olivia galred at the girl and fumed as she tried to hold the chair and stand up but before she could do so, Evan crouched on the floor and looked straight into her eyes,

"If you open your filthy mouth again, I will make sure that you will never be able to speak again. Whether you get married to Leo or not. I will not bear that you speak about my respect! Did you understand!" her eyes were so cold that Olivia felt it matched the cold eyes of Leo.

She tried to retort but even if she opened her mouth, not a single word came out. Her eyes had dilated and her face had lost all her colours.

"Did you get it or not?" Evan whispered and the cold words sounded like they came from the Netherlands. Olivia parted her lips but no words came out, so she only nodded.

Evan stood up and dusted her dress with contempt as if they had turned filthy after coming in touch with her. Since Olivia could not aacpt her silence then she should not blame Evan for teaching her a lesson!

Finally Olivia came back to her senses, and realised that she unintentionally agreed to whatever Evan had told her. Only then did she stood up and glared at the girl who was looking at her arrogantly.

"Evangeline! How dare you!? I will go and tell Leo that you have tried to kill me and get justice." she replied in a shrill voice as she turned to leave but before she could take a step further, she saw Leo was standing there with a dark face.

His face was so cold and furious that nobody would dare to come closer to him. Even Olivia did not dare to open her mouth suddenly but waited for a few seconds to collect her strength and form the sentence properly. She did not want to sound harsh but at the same time show how violent and rude the girl was!

"My lord, you have come at the right time. I was about to come to you only." Olivia wiped the single tear in her eyes as she looked at him with an aggrieved face.

"Apologise!"
