Love me, Mr. Duke
Chapters 27.Your departure

...~Love Me My Lord Duke~...

I don't know what's going on with me. I can't sleep or wake up. My chest feels tight, my throat hurts too. Inside and outside my body feels hot. I really feel helpless.

"The body temperature of Madam Duchess rose drastically exceeding 38 degrees Celsius. Besides, Mrs Duchess is also showing symptoms of respiratory distress." (Doctor)

"Impossible! What do you mean my wife..." (Brazil)

"Mr Duke, you said that suddenly Madame Duchess lost consciousness after a while in the town hall? The Duchess was okay, wasn't she?" (Doctor)

"Yes..." (Brazil)

"That means Madame Duchess contracted the virus while she was there." (Doctor)

"What's!? That doesn't make sense, how could the virus have gotten here?" (Brazil)

"That might happen, Mr. Duke. It's possible that at the town hall there are animals or humans that have been infected by the carlotte virus. Judging from the symptoms and the time of the incident, it looks like Madam Duchess contracted directly through the transmission of fluid, this is usually in the form of body fluids that come out when talking, coughing and sneezing, which is within about a meter of the infected person."

STIRRUP!!!

"Yeah!!" (Live)

"Mr Duke! Please control yourself!" (Alfonso)

"I should have slashed the old woman's neck in the first place!" (Brazil)

"Ivone quickly clean the glass shards." (Alfonso)

"Well, Mr. Alfonso." (Live)

"You better not make a fuss, Mr. Duke. Because right now Madame Duchess is trying to fight her illness." (Doctor)

"Get all of you out!!" (Brazil)

Even under these circumstances, I can still feel Carxen's hand holding my hand. Chilly. Why was his hand so cold and trembling.

"Hold on... Please." her voice sounded desperate.

I could feel the warm tears that fell on my cheeks, accompanied by the rubbing of the hand that touched my crown.

'Why...? Why are you crying over me? Even you are angry with everyone for my sake.'

You're always there for me when I need you most. You always ran after me when I got away from you and took my hand. But on the other hand, you repeatedly pushed me away through your words and your attitude.

If I tell you about the time curse that's on my wrist. Will you believe me and try to love me?

...~oOo0oOo~...

Day by day change.

"I'm sorry, Madam. I can't open the balcony door, it's all for the lady's health" Ivone said, standing next to my bed.

I gave Ivone a smile, "Don't worry Ivone, I just want to stare at the balcony door, I haven't done this in a long time."

"Thank God then," Ivone sighed in relief.

"Everything else the Madam should stay healthy until Mr. Duke gets home. At least it would be the best gift for Master Duke."

I flinched and looked at Ivone questioningly, "Until Master Duke gets home? What do you mean by that?"

Ivone lowered his head avoiding my sight, "Umm... Tu-Master Duke..."

Looking at the strange Ivone gelagat I frowned even more.

"Tell me, where is Lord Duke now?"

It can't be that last night was the truth. I'm pretty sure it was a dream.

"Mr Duke fought his way to the northern border" Ivone said slowly.

I was so surprised I couldn't speak. I tried to recall my dream last night, when I thought I would never see the sunrise again.

Just then, I vaguely saw Carxen enter my room. He stood next to the bed and took my right hand and kissed for a long time.

"I'm going to go to war with Gavin and Edwin. I hope you're not too worried about me and the others."

I still clearly remember her low-sounding voice softening my ears even more. The warm touch made me feel comfortable.

It's all real, it's not a dream.

"I hate to say this right out of my mouth, but I'm the best knight in the south."

Those were the last words before he went to war leaving me.

"Nyo-Mrs. Is Madam okay?"

Tears filled my eyes and fell on my blanket.

"I... I miss Ivone so much... L'm... Really misses..."

Ivone immediately hugged my trembling body tightly, her little hands rubbing against my back gently. He was trying to calm me down.

"Madam, please don't cry for Mr. Duke. Because my heart hurts so much to see a Madam like this."

I cried all over in Ivone's arms.
