Chapter 133: Sinister Plots
"Mother, where are the contract papers? Give them to me!!!" he shouted, and I almost flinched at his screaming voice, making me shiver in fear.
"Alex, why are you behaving this way? All I’m doing is for your own good. I could never do something that is not good for you at all. So please calm down. Hear me out!!!" Mother pleaded, attempting to calm him down, but it only fueled his anger.
"No, Mother!!! This is not for my own good at all. My entire life, I believed you. My entire life spent praying for you, but you did all this behind my back. How? How could you do this to me, Mother? Is this what I have wished for?" he expressed, his emotions breaking through for the first time. It was heartbreaking to witness.
"Mother, I don’t want to hear anything. Just say where is the paper. Where is the bloody paper!!!!!!" he shouted again.
"The paper will not be handed over to you. That is for my own. It can bring something I desire. Why would I hand you that paper? So that you could keep this woman here all her life, destroying all the efforts I have made to reach the only achievement I desire? No. This is never going to happen. Forget about it. Forget what you know. Because I will never hand over the papers, and you will marry Vixara," she declared.
"No, this will never happen. And I have only one wife. Which is Bernice Balliol Agnes. There won’t be a next wife for me," he affirmed, leaving the room and pulling me along.
"Duke, where are you taking me? It is too fast. I will slip in my dress," I tried to express my discomfort, but I guess he didn’t hear at all.
"Duke!!!" I raised my voice slightly, making him finally stop.
"Ah, yes, Wife!! Were you saying something?" he asked, finally considering my concern.
"Slow down!! I’m going to fall at this rate," I pleaded.
"I apologize, Wife. I wasn’t in the right mind," he said calmly.
"I understand what you are going through, but this is what I have been trying to show for a long time, and you finally did it. But still, so many things are hidden from you. I hope you soon find out about all this at once," I revealed.
