Chapter 21 - Completely changed.DUKE'S POVAfter Elaine had stopped the call without allowing me to respond. I was both startled and furious about what Elaine had done."Fucked!" I exclaimed angrily to myself.I didn't inform her because I don't want anyone to see Elaine with those old geezers and demons who will have their wicked eyes on my wife. "Are you all right, sir?" Venice said, concerned by my rage.I looked him in the eyes and answered sarcastically, "Do I seem okay?! No right?""I'm sorry, sir, but why are you upset? Is there something wrong with the flow of the ceremony that has made you angry and upset?" He questioned again what is the source of my annoyance and anger.I took a deep breath and glanced at the list of guests who had been invited today for my succession of my grandfather's business, which after many years of waiting, I could finally inherit and protect it from my uncle."Is there any way those old geezers and bastards may be deleted off the list of invited

Chapter 23 - Resting together DUKE'S POVFinally, when we finished eating breakfast, I was forced to eat. Nonetheless, I was relieved to witness Elaine's many faces while eating. It's entertaining to see her expression when she's astonished, thrilled, or bewildered by the food she's munching." Boss, is your stomach full or are you full because of another reason?" Venice whispered to my ear to prevent Elaine from hearing what he said.While Elaine and the maid were putting away the plates that we used during, we ate the breakfast that Elaine had brought us minutes ago.We're both working at my table right now, or so it appears because I'm only pretending while I steal a glimpse at Elaine, which is why Venice asked me such a teasing question.I instantly kicked Venice's foot so hard that he almost lost his footing, but happily he had regained his feet, and so I stared at Venice, "Shut up you bastard! If Elaine was not here, you are already fired or dead," I threatened."As if you coul

Chapter 25 - Annoying GuestDUKE'S POV After Elaine left the office, I looked at Venice with a furious frown on my face, which Venice pretended not to notice."I will kill you later " I threaten Venice as I look at him with my deadly stare.Venice just ignored my threat and just looked at me without any expression on his face. " Shall I call your uncle Sir?" He asked." Obviously?" I sarcastically replied to his question.Venice did not respond to what I said and just exited my office. While I waited for him, I reflected on what happened when Elaine and I were alone together and how close I came to losing control of my urges. I can't help myself. I want to gobble her up in her flowery dress because she is so gorgeous and seductive.We would have done what we couldn't finish the last time if it hadn't been for my Uncle's unexpected arrival without an appointment." Sir Mr. Hayes has come," Venice said outside my office, alerting me to their arrival." Come in" I replied to Venice.Ve

Chapter 27 - GermsDUKE'S POVWhen Elaine had already left my office, I grabbed something from my table and threw it harder on the floor, causing it to shatter."HOW DARE HE TOUCH HER! FUCKING BASTARD!" I roared, cursing what my uncle had done.How dare he touch Elaine's face with his germ-infested hands. He could infect her with viruses, and Elaine might get sick as a result of what he did, therefore I'm going to kill him." Sir, what did you say to Mrs. Hayes that caused her to shed tears?" Venice asks a question coldly.Well I don't want to tell her about the issue with my uncle, which is why I just insulted her make-up and the dress she was wearing so that Elaine will obey my orders. I just wanted to clean her face and throw away the dress my uncle had touched.And I also noticed how she suppressed her tears in front of me which makes me want to punch myself for making her cry and sad." You don't need to know and mind your own business Venice" I said, reminding Venice of his posi

Chapter 29 - ARGUMENT PART 2 : Smoking alternative.Duke's POVShe is correct in one thing: I do not want to die without feeling agony. Because that's the type of death I desire, a horrible death to atone for all of my wrongdoings.I began to stroke her exquisite Jade and wavy hair. "Interesting, so what are you going to do to keep me from smoking again?" I questioned Elaine." Lollipop, " she whispered in reply.I laughed at what she said and Elaine stopped laying on my body, looked at me with an angry expression" why are you laughing Idiot! I am serious about making you eat lollipops as an alternative!" She yelled at me."Are you trying to make me diabetic?" I joked, and she simply pouted in front of me."Why would I want you to get diabetes?" she said angrily as Elaine continued to pout.So cute."Well, if I eat too many lollipops and become hooked, I'll acquire diabetes," I explained to her while grinning in front of Elaine."Oh well, you're right, having a lollipop is a no-no, wh
