If I Disobey the Duke - Chapter 122
Chapter 122 cut (3)
Lily, stuck in the doorway, looked I iko a dead soul. At hor foot, rainwater dripped from her cloak.
Sho didn’t gay anyth ing about tho turbid rust. Her eyes were wide open like c skeleton that died a long time ago.
Sho was mad.
“What docs Father want?”
What does ho want in order for him to not hurt Dandelion and the citizens?
It was a question swallowed into hor mouth, but har siblings understood it wall enough.
Sho wa ntcd to cut Dandelion away from her father. Ho know that tho child was actually tho shackles that bound her.
Her desire to rescue her younger brother wag stronger than expected. To the extent that she didn’t oven know it herself, that she had a surviving heart hidden deep in the bottom of her subconscious.
Water was puddled on tho floor.
“Answer me, Rocus.”
Would I havo been happier if I didn’t know?
Close your eyes and cover your cars. Livo with a false sonsc of comfort just as many people did
Rocus was someone who delivered unpleasant news. Lily, standing in front of him, ignored the fact that her heart was being cut into piccos.
No matter how many doors wore locked, he could pass through walls endlessly.
Lily had only forgotten for a moment.
Even one climbed a cliff and ran away, they would bo caught by their ankles and dragged down.
“Jeez, really!” Rocus, who had boon silent for a while, frowned and ruffled tho backof his head nervously.
With a strong force, ho slammed his fist on the table.
It was a final burst of energy. Ho sot up a chair that had fallen over and sat down as ho was exhausted.
“l don’t like this situation either. Bocauso thcVro all saying it’s good for you. No matter how much my sister lives with an assholc. If you got kicked out of here, its really over and you have nowhere else to go. I was worried about that.”
“l know. Say something also.”
“Oh, thoroforo.” Ho wiped his face dry with onc largo hand. Thon ho placed the tip of his elbow on the tablo and lowcrcd his head to the floor. •„.Sorry. Sister. I didn’t moan to do this.”
It was an unfamiliar development. Ho poured his angor out like fire and apologized.
The answer that Lily could give was the same this time. “It’s okay. Who Olso would understand you if I don’t?”
Rocus accepted without hesitation. Having regained his dignity, ho pointed at Valks with his chin. “That. Please lot tho nobleman go. This timo for real. Lot’s talk as a family. Huh?”
LilVs noodle-stuffed emotions finally camo back to life. Sha was terrified to turn around and look at her husband’s vassal. When Vlad returned, this would surely roach his oars.
Thoro was a suffocating fear snuffing out any rational thought.
What kind of cycs will you face?
Lilu looked at her escort. Suddenly her heart stuttcrcd.
Anger. A fiorcc fury pierced through the veins on his chook.
She couldn’t help but lower her eyes.
Ho was the person who hated her, it was a natural thi ng, one that sho would eventually got used to, though sho wouldn’t over bo comfortable with it.
“Please, Count”
” Valks’ cyc twitched, thousa nds of words gathering in his mouth.
After an alarming silence, he bowed his head and loft the room.
Thud.
The sound of the iron door closing was a desperate sentence.
Rocus cast an awkward glance at Lily, who was standing by thc door. •l asked if you wore pregnant. I didn’t moan that. As you know, men arc a littlc.„ Thore is no such thing as delicacy.” Ho loaned against tho backrest somewhat arrogantly. •l was trying to find out how far my sister could progress with the duke. Thoro is a difference between a man full of blood and a naked woman.” Ho pounded the tablo with his clenched fist. A regular echo sounded. “Somo guy stole tho prostitutes, so this is no joke. Ho’s got a staggering amount of good bitches out”
Lily gasped softly.
Hor brother could not havo noticed such a small reaction. Sho didn’t know if her furrowed eyebrows would over straighten out.
Rocus stopped his hand tapping the table. Ho was silent as if in docp thought, thon clicked his tongue. “But you don’t havo children. It’s a bit difficult. There’s no way you can do it. Just whau Take good carc of yourself. You don’t know what to do best.”
She understood tho implicit statement in that.
[Be like a virtuous lady by day. but warm the bod by night.
You are short-tempered and dull, but you are useful enough because you resemble your mother.
That is the purpose of your existence. Don’t forgot it.]
It was a reminder that sho roccivcd repeatedly.
