Conquering the Duke のすべてのチャプター: チャプター 111 - チャプター 120

"Who else knows about this?" Liam's voice didn't show any sign of anxiousness, but the coldness and anger were present in his gaze. His eyes had transformed into a raging red, an ominous red that could bring disaster to whoever dared to cross his path. "Speak!" Ilian gulped a bit and shook his head. "I don't know how many more received the notice, Your Highness. However, I heard the rumors about it being a joke to make Her Highness look bad in the eyes of the public. There is a saying that many nobles are opposing your marriage to her and are trying to dirty her image. However, I don't know who posted the reward note, but it originated in the south…" "Where?" "Three families in the South, from the faction of Duke Feiras." Liam narrowed his eyes, he knew that man very well, and nothing concerning him or his allies was good news. That man had been against Liam's brother Crowning from the first day of his mandate. His little group of nobles belie

The shout of the Duke echoed in the hall. The floor trembled, some books fell down. It was so strong and loud that the servants and guards outside heard it too.The two Generals on the front frowned and looked at the beautiful woman for a brief moment. They didn't say a word and waited for her to go out.Emma was shocked. She couldn't move, not only because of fear but from a painful punch in her heart. It was taking her breath and courage away.She wanted to see him, she wanted to make her see her. She knew he will be angry but, in the end, he will go to her and tenderly ask her why she went to find him. He will helplessly sigh, but he will show a gentle smile at her.However, he didn't do any of that. The eyes were tired and frowning. His aura was dangerous and filled with rage.Emma hesitated for a brief second, as she couldn't believe it still. However, she regained her thoughts and turned around to leave. Then the voice of the man stopped her

"What is the meaning of this?"Liam knew that those traveling words written in the book were not simple wishes. They were detailed plans. The woman was thinking of leaving."Plans for the future," Emma said without fear. She knew that it was useless to deny it. "My future, I don't want to be tied up to a loveless marriage. If you don't desire to let me be here, I said it to you once, I will leave."Her words were crude and cold. She tried to hide the pain in her eyes and the sadness of her heart to not start crying right then. The only option was to sound emotionless and indifferent, the same as he.Liam looked at her indifferent face and felt funny. For the first time in many years, he felt that a pang had hit his lungs and impeded for him to breathe with ease.He was not controlled by the damn Rosaline Fragrance. He knew it, but that didn't mean it was love.'Maybe it was some residual effect,' he thought and dismissed the feeling"

The days on the Dukedom were full of rumors again. However, the love life of the Duke and his wife were not at the center of attention this time.The soldiers and knights from the frontier and the outskirts regions were passing to pay their respects to the Duke. The air of war and battle was echoing in the land.Some servants were scared, some others couldn't contain their ire. They thought that the Kingdom of Luriem was again raising their swords against Avalor.Those servants were quickly shut up and take out of the Dukedom with a warning. Of course, their silly comments were directed at the inner circle, their contempt was, however, on the woman inside the walls.Emma didn't know anything about what was happening. outside. Her life was peaceful and calm without any disturbance.She will go out to train and read in the library and no one would upset her life. However, her eyes were not looking with glint anymore anything.He will look at t

The Kingdom of Avalor had strange weather that week. It felt as if spring had arrived earlier and the fragrance of flowers had covered the air. The trees and gardens were blooming and the soft songs of the birds were giving everyone a sense of joy.They knew that the King was happy, and they couldn't help but feel happy too, even with the strange rumors of a battle breaking out.However, seeing the King in such a good mood, and the atmosphere being comfortable, even the Ministers and Generals of the Kingdom felt a strange peace invade their minds. Because of that, their worries stopped for a bit, and their long list of complaints and request for answers ended. Moreover, when they knew that the Duke, brother of the King, was managing the affairs of the Kingdom instead of the lazy King, they secretly held a party. They knew how diligent was the Duke, not like his brother. "Dear, are you sure she is fine?" General Hunter was pacing around the gar
