The Duke's Substitute Wife
Life has a mystery

"Wait," someone shouted. The man walked over to Duke Cristin with a deadly aura. The two men met face to face while staring. The same goes for the Knight who is beside him. Mutual eyes.

"I think the Marquess should keep her distance from the Duchess."

"I used to be stupid, letting her marry His Highness the Duke, but I was wrong. Viola was not happy together with His Highness the Duke."

"So your words, Marquess. She's a Duchess so take care of your courtesy." Duke Cristin did not accept the Marquess saying that name so casually. Duke Cristin recalled their relationship. And now the Marquess is openly waging a war with him.

"Well, she'll be Duchess forever,"

"Don't be selfish, Your Highness Duke. What if one day Miss Abella comes back? will His Royal Highness the Duke still ask her to become a Duchess? don't give him any suffering."

Duke Cristin ignored Marquess Ramon's words. He only considered the wind then. His business has nothing to do with him. So he will decide for himself.

Shit ! he just ignored me.

The car stopped at his residence. He went into his room and dropped himself into the bed. The shadow of the two women was now in front of him. Duke Cristin was stunned, he could not choose between them. For him Viola was his life while his promise was his responsibility.

No matter how deep his thinking. Will not get the answer until the beautiful eyes are no longer strong open and drift into the dream world.

At the Duke Arland residence. Duchess Eliana was crying when she saw the wound on her son's arm. He could not imagine if there was anything to his first son. Abella is gone, now only her son is left.

"Mother, don't cry. I'm fine." Ferland said it hurt to see Duchess Eliana cry.

"Ferland, next time you have to be careful. I don't want anything to happen to you." Typhoon Duke Arland sighed deeply.

"Shemch.."

After being examined by the Doctor, Duchess Eliana and Duke Arland came out of her room to allow Ferland to rest. They will ask what things need to be considered with Ferland's wounds.

Ferland lay down his body, he remembered a girl who had tore his dress and bandaged his wound. Ferland glanced at the torn dress on the nightstand before the waiter threw it away. Her heart was uncertain, she smiled imagining Viola smiling at her. Ferland shook his head. His brain must be crazy to think of a thorn in his family, then close his eyes.

To esokan....

Viola who was still fast asleep in her bed and deepened her beautiful dream. Suddenly shocked by the hand of someone who patted his cheek slowly. Viola opened his eyes, he vaguely saw the shadow of Duke Cristin's face.

"Huh, he still likes to bother me. Don't let me live quietly." Viola turned her body around and pulled the blanket.

"Wake up, we should get ready for the palace." Duke Cristin. As there was no sound, Duke Cristin pulled the blanket over, causing the master to curl up in coldness.

"Heh, I'm still sleepy Flo." Viola shouted back at the blanket and pulled it, covering his body back.

Duke Cristin looked towards Flora, he asked for an explanation of everything.

"That's how it is now, sir." Flora.

Duke Cristin stood up, he immediately opened the blanket in front of her and helped Viola sit down.

Not wanting to waste time, Duke Cristin carried Viola's body up to the bathroom and dropped himself into the bathtub filled with warm water.

"Hey," Viola realized, he thought he was flying into the clouds. No idea was even thrown into the bathub.

"Hurry up and don't waste my time." Said Duke Cristin who did not want to listen to Viola's chatter.

After Viola let out his anger, mouthing began Duke Cristin threw it into the bathub and reached the palace. Duke Cristin never responded. Instead he just chuckles amusedly. Viola is very different. It was precisely that difference that made him reluctant to let go now.

Viola took out his purplish face. He was not satisfied cursing Duke Cristin who only got a smile reply, laughing loosely. I want him to hide his mouth with his shoes.

"Let's Your Majesty Duke." Said the palace chief servant who had been waiting for his arrival since earlier.

They also headed to a park. In the middle of the garden there is a greenhouse surrounded by red roses. On the table was already a dish of Vilvet cake, biscuits and black tea.

"Duchess and Her Royal Highness the Duke." The middle-aged woman smiled.

Viola also let out his sweetest smile as he glanced at Duke in annoyance.

He saluted the woman following Duke Cristin. He was sure, the woman in front of him was an Empress if he saw the crown that adorned his head.

A few minutes later Duke Cristin granted permission when a knight called him on the pretext of being summoned by His Majesty. Duke Cristin also permits farewell. She looked at Empress Briana so as not to say anything about her.

Empress Briana nodded. A moment later Duke Cristin's body disappeared. He looked towards Viola he accompanied his friendly smile.

"Duchess, what you see and hear is not necessarily true. Life has a mystery that not everyone can say." The words of Empress Briana made Viola confused.
