Evil Duke, Please Be Gentle!-Chapter 505 [Bonus Chapter] Was It An Attack(Chapter Preview)

Hannah gritted her teeth as she stared at the letter in her hands.

"If you did not show any progress, I will teach you a lesson." The single line was enough for her to grit her teeth and smash her hands on the table.

"That fool! How did he dare to not follow my words? I will make sure that he will suffer a lot this time." She wanted to throw everything on the table but then she had to explain why she did so since she was playing a meek girl.

But then her eyes glinted. She stood up with an evil look on her face as she held the cloth of the table and pulled it.

All the dishes on the table fell and broke filling the room with shards. Then she casually walked towards the table and threw the vase on the ground.

Then cushions, bedsheets, glasses, everything met the same end. Things that are remotely expensive were broken while she picked up and hid the more expensive things.

The room was looking like a mess with the floor filled with shards of glasses and crockery and with food and water that were in the dishes.

A satisfied smile formed on her face but then she frowned when she saw her reflection in the mirror. She pulled the satin ribbon holding her hair in a ponytail and threw it on the ground too.

Running hands in her hair to make sure that they look like a mess, she slapped herself hard on the cheek that burnt red instantly.

"Knock knock" the door knocked and she turned her head towards the door while an evil smile formed on her lips. She did not need to be told who it could be. But this time she was prepared! Prepared to make him her slave completely.

Squeezing a few tears out of her eyes, she walked towards the door and opened it. She did not give a look to Ethan as she walked back in. her eyes were filled with grievances and pain that tugged his heart.

"Hannah, what happened?" he asked with a look of worry in his eyes but just as he entered, his eyes widened. f𝚛e𝚎𝘄𝒆𝚋𝚗𝚘ѵ𝑒𝚕.𝑐𝘰𝑚

He stared at the room with shock but soon it turned into rage. He gritted his teeth and his hands clenched into a tight fist.

"Did your money lenders do it?" The voice came out with so much pressure that an evil smirk formed on her face that was hidden by her hair.

He turned to look at her but she stayed silent. Her hair was covering more of her face that was turned on the other side.

Hannah had always liked to look prim and proper. Even when she was suffering from shortage of money, she always wore beautiful dresses and jewels that she could afford.

Seeing her in this way, he was sure that she was hurt but he was hesitating in touching her. She was the one who took the initiative and got angry when she was touching without her permission. What if she misunderstood him?

His fists became tighter as he continued to stare at her but in the end, he could not control himself. The sound of muffled cries made him bundle of nerves.

"Hannah" he held her hair and tucked it behind her ears and then cupped her cheeks and raised her head so that he could look into her eyes.

But he was stunned to see the mark of hands on her face. She was beaten?

"Who did this?" fury burnt him. He would go and beat all of them to touch her.

Breaking things at home was different. He could replace all of them but beating her was… he would teach them a good lesson so they would never dare to do it again.

"No!.. you.. You will not go. They had daggers and knives in their hands and all of them were blurry and strong men.

I am nothing but.. But if anything happened to you. What will I do? You can not go. You should return back to your palace where you are safe with the knights. What if they saw you coming here and followed you.

What if you were hurt because of me? No! You should stop coming here. I will handle everything on my own. Go.. go Ethan." her tone was full of pleading while her face looked panicked. As if she could not fathom what would happen. 𝑓𝔯𝑒e𝘸e𝘣𝓷𝘰ѵe𝚕.c૦𝙢

Her face was full of bear that stung his heart. He felt furious looking at her miserable face. He had never seen her this much panicked ever.

It was all due to his negligence. She had told him many times that she needed more money but he was not able to get it for her when he was that rich. She must have thought that he was a liar and did not want to help her in the first place.

What if she started hating him? No! He had to forget about his worries. Right now, she needs him more.

He moved his hands from her cheeks to her shoulder and held her tightly.

"Hannah, I am sorry for being late. But I am not that weak. You do not need to worry about me. In fact, I promise that I will handle all of this.

I would teach them a lesson. If you are unsure about my strength, then I will take knights with me. They will beat all those ruffians who dared to enter this house.

They will pay.." she raised her head and shook it hard. Her face filled with more panic. She looked like she would cry any moment with that face for hers.

"No! You can not do that. What if they came to take revenge from me later when you were gone. They had already threatened me that they would kill me next time if I did not return the money with interest. Your actions would only infuriate them further.

I do not want to die, Ethan!"
