Lover While The Duke
#36 Finally (Finding You)

Bang.

The door opened violently.

Verdian who was reading the document gasped. Duke Soveil entered without notice.

"You!" Shouted Lionel.

His steps widened towards him. A hurry approached him.

"Duke!" Verdian who was no less surprised was also shouting.

Duke Soveil clutched his neck then lifted his body easily. Verdian rebel. How strong Lionel's hand is.

"Du, Duke! Please release!" Verdian's voice is running out. The pressure of divine mana Lionel was increasingly suffocating him.

"Basic liar!" Lionel's eyes lit up with rage. In his mind there was only the word kill.

"Please let Duke go, we can talk about it." Persuade Verdian with all his might.

Looking at Lionel who was burning with rage, there was only one thing he remembered.

"Lady Rainhart, is this because of her? Fine, well I'll explain Duke."

Lionel's grip loosened and Verdian's body collapsed helplessly. Breath snorted. It was like he had just survived the death penalty. Verdian calmed himself down with all his might.

"You better explain everything without anything covered up." Spray Lionel. No manners in front of Verdian. In his eyes, Verdian was just a single feather that could fly at any moment.

"Yes I will explain." Lionel's eyes were still blazing. He immediately calmed himself down then took a deep breath.

"Not long after the black magic mess, Yanneta sent me a letter."

Lionel frowned disapprovingly of Verdian's direct call of the name Yanneta.

"Because I was curious I sent people to follow the courier of the letter. From there I knew that Yanneta was in Vexia."

"Since when?"

"At that time the Duke was unconscious, so I kept it to myself. You know not that I owe Yanneta much, so I want to make sure she's safe."

"But you keep hiding it. You didn't say it when I was busy looking for it."

"I think Yanneta doesn't want him Duke, he ran away isn't it to avoid you? I'm not wrong, am I?"

"Yanneta, only I can call him that. What are your rights?"

"We were friends, and John allowed it."

Verdian does not want to lose. For matters of strength he might lose. But if something about Yanneta he's the winner here. Verdia's sense of revenge is burning.

"Did you see Yanneta with me?"

Lionel's gaze was as sharp as a sword that had just been sharpened.

"Yanneta is pregnant. His arrival today is to ask me to be his guardian later."

Lionel's eyes were blazing. A sense of heat flowed in his blood. Angry, stupid, and helpless crept at him at once. Outside it could be that he was tough but inside, he had burned to the ground.

He thought as long as he had been analyzing Yanneta. In fact, he doesn't know anything. Yanneta knows all about him, but Lionel doesn't. Even now the woman is pregnant who is most likely her child, and trying to hide it.

Lionel can't take it anymore. He almost exploded with anger.

"Never interfere again with our affairs."

"But Duke."

"If you still love your life, be sure to keep quiet. Otherwise, the people of Zagc will remember you as the emperor who was beheaded."

After throwing death threats, Lionel left Verdian just like that.

As Lionel's back disappeared, Verdian let out a rough sigh.

"God's scary. How can someone be so scary. Even he was not afraid of Zagc's laws for threatening the emperor." Mumbles weakly.

Duke Soveil, who doesn't know himself. Lionel Soveil, the only Duke-ranked noble in Zagc. The long history of his family is beyond doubt. Has a lot of followers and strong support. If you want, Soveil used to set up a country of his own. Then no law can touch Soveil.

Existence great. Absolute decision. At any time, Zagc won't be able to match Soveil. Their blood is superior. No doubt if many nobles embrace him as an ally.

After visiting Verdian, Lionel called Dean Kalios.

"Dean Kalios permission to face His Majesty."

"Come in."

"When's the show?"

"Tomorrow morning Your Majesty. The plan is after this event they will soon return to Vexia due to an unlikely condition."

"It looks like they're in such a hurry."

Lionel's tone was extremely cold and piercing. Insufficient moonlight illuminated his study gave a frightening impression.

"Come to Baron Joseph's mansion now and get his daughter's wedding invitation."

"Your Majesty."

As fast as lightning Dean disappeared. Leaving Lionel devoured by the darkness of night. He can't sleep. Every time he closed his eyes, the Yannetas always came. They are close now but why feel so far away. It felt like he wanted to go straight to her and ask her the various questions that were in his head.

But Lionel was afraid of Yanneta's response. He did not want to make Yanneta afraid of him.

Lionel broke his coarse hair while swearing at himself.

The morning came faster.

The Vexia Mansion in the Capital had been noisy by the servants who were busy dressing up Yanneta and Eliz. They should arrive on time as this is an important event.

The chariot was ready to take John and Elizabeth to Yolanda's wedding. Not far from the Vexia mansion, just a few minutes away. Although the Capital of Zagc, Nachtion is no wider than the other four regions.

They arrived on time. Yanneta wore a simple dress with the belly part slightly inflated to disguise her pregnancy. A pale blue slab with a simple cut. Her golden hair was in a tall bun with a simple pearl decoration.

The wedding ceremony was held at Joseph's mansion. Right in the back garden. The concept of the show is a garden party. Yolanda said she only wanted to have a simple wedding ceremony. His partner, one of the sons of a Count was also a simple person. Not many guests were invited.

They walked quickly to their seats. Hillary and Rebecca came first. As close friends, the four people got the front seat.

An altar with a flower fence and white curtains became its decoration. Everything is all white. A still cool morning sky adds to the sanctity of the event.

Yanneta focuses her attention on two couples who are making a wedding vow. Sampa is loyal to grow old together. Baron and Baroness Joseph who accompanied her daughter to marriage cried as much as they could.

Wisdom atmosphere.

Without Yanneta realizing. There was someone who had been watching him since. From the moment he got off the train to sitting in his chair.

The person does not mix with other guests. Wearing after a dark-colored tuxedo suit with a drink glass in his hand, he stood a little away from the event held.

Even so, no one dared to reprimand him. Who dares to rebuke Duke Soveil. Just by looking at it alone, the guests present instantly froze.

There were not even whispers questioning why Duke Soveil was here. This event was just a wedding ceremony of an ordinary noble. Baron Joseph wasn't even an ally of Soveil. Dreaming of it is impossible. A lowly noble befriends a high-ranking noble.

Not a typical high courtesan, Duke Soveil is the real Zagc.

Finally, the guests can only ignore his presence to focus on praying for a happy bride and groom.

After the wedding ceremony was over, there was a simple party being held. The crowd instantly collapsed as soon as Baron Joseph's speech was over.

Guests are usually made up of two or three people.

"Annet, jesus!" Yolanda cried as soon as he saw Yanneta approaching.

Then followed by Eliz, Hillary, and Rebecca, a reunion of the Anti-Gwinian group takes place. They hugged each other and chatted lightly to let go of the longing all this time.

For almost half a year they did not meet. After the meeting at Gwinia's debut party, they sent letters more often. Despite giving each other news, meeting in person has a different taste.

"Lady Rainhart."

A voice interrupted the small reunion of the five companions.

"Duke!"

"ah! Greetings to His Majesty."

Surprise hatched from the small group. The one who was most surprised was Yanneta. How not, Lionel Soveil was standing right in front of him. He often imagined how Lionel was now. But he never expected to see her again.

His eyelids are shaking. Mouth's dry. His heart is beating fast.

"How did this happen?" The pecker is in the heart.

"During time did not meet Lady." Said Lionel with a mysterious grin.

His voice was calm with his cold face, Lionel Soveil managed to make the people who saw him freeze on the spot.

Seriate...
