DUKE'S CONTRACT WIFE
Wife contract duke [03]
• ^________________ •
Arabella was quickly surrounded by noble ladies. Arabella was so shocked, she was completely unable to move freely as almost everyone crowded around her.
"S-Rush! Geez, why are they acting like this? I really have trouble breathing!". Arabella tried her hardest to escape the crowd who tried to chat with her. After a long attempt, Arabella managed to escape.
" Fiuh~ Leganya" Arabella sighed in relief, now she immediately went to a rather quiet place before the nobles realized that she had disappeared.
• ^_ Park •
Arabella decided to go to the park because she did not want to be constantly harassed by the nobles. Arabella continued walking until her steps stopped because she saw a man standing in the corner of the park drinking a glass of wine.
"Geez" Arabella was amazed at the man's good looks, how not? White skin, dark black hair, blue eyes, seductive lips, tall body Ah... Absolutely perfect!
"Well... " The man breathed a rough breath, he seemed to be riled up not knowing what he was thinking.
"Do I have to say hello? But... What if he doesn't like it?" After a long debate, Arabella decided to greet the man.
"Excuse me" Arabella walked up to the man. And how surprised he was when the man turned around and their eyes were fixed.
"D-Duke Tryon?! Goddamnit! How could I not know it at all? Is it because I'm already exhausted when facing the nobles?" Arabella massaged her temple, she was completely shocked and confused. I don't know what to do in the future.
"Lady, if you don't have an important affair with me you better hurry back" Duke Tryon or.. His full name Theo Acord De Tryon was a man known to be violent and ruthless. He did not even hesitate to kill anyone who was against him.
"A chance! Since I've already met like this it's better to just propose a contract marriage with him!" Arabella gathers courage and finally begins to talk about her true purpose.
"You're Duke Tryon, right?" Arabella asked super carefully as she did not want to offend the ruthless Duke!
"Hm"
"What the fuck? He only answered 'Hm?!" Arabella was surprised by Theo's reply.
"That means yes, Duke. I want to make a deal with you!" Theo was a little surprised because Arabella, the woman he had just met suddenly tried to make a deal with him. Not with anyone else but with the Duke who was known to be cruel, ruthless, and tyrant!
"Ah... Is it just you who can help me?" Arabella originally answered the question posed by Theo. Theo was stunned and tried to digest the words Arabella.
"Again.... Duke, I'm here to make a deal with you because I can also help you. Isn't nice? We're in a mutualistic relationship?" Arabella blinked one eye and smiled at the duke then this made the duke's face flushed slightly. The Duke glanced at Arabella at a glance and re-thought of Arabella's words, 'duke' was a very alert and super cautious person.
Naturally, if he was like this, he had almost died several times due to negligence and trusted too much in others. And because of this the internal condition of the Duke's residence became chaotic. Everything is really fucked up!
"What offer can you give me?" The duke folded his hands across his chest, eyes filled with intimidation and a gripping aura... Really scary! Arabella swallowed her saliva and boldly expressed her opinion.
"Duke, I can help you to deal with your internal problems. In addition I will also help you to obtain the Imperial PIN as quickly as possible." It is not without reason that Arabella put forward this requirement, because.. The Duke will indeed obtain the Imperial PIN when he turns 25. The Duke is 20 and Arabella is 18. That means there's still 5 years left until Duke receives that PIN.
The Duke thought back to Arabella's offer, he hesitated a little. But.... When else will he get a partner who does not even demand love from him? Or the... A couple who married because of a forced marriage? But the couple who married because of the deal!!
"alright, but... Can you guarantee that I will actually get the Imperial PIN?" Again and again a gripping aura burst out from the Duke's body, Arabella steadied her heart.
"Yes, I promise I will make you receive the Imperial PIN within 1 month!" Aloud Arabella answered the Duke's question, The Duke was stunned and in disbelief.
1 month?! Arabella can get the PIN that the duke wanted in such a short time?! It's hard to believe!
"Do I have to believe his talk? But.. What if what he said was a lie? Ah.. Nah! I saw he wasn't lying" the Duke smiled, then nodded his head a sign that he had agreed to those terms. The Duke asked what conditions would Arabella give him? And Arabella also replied "Marriage" hearing this the Duke was very surprised, because it could-be a noble Miss easily say "Marriage" she just did not dare to propose to a lady but... arabella could have proposed it as easily as turning the palm of the hand.
The Duke smiled, "Interesting" The word can be implied from that smile of his. Cold sweat, Arabella is really freaking out. He was afraid that his agreement and freedom would just disappear!!
"Ah.. How'this? It seems that the Duke would not have agreed to this, if it was true how could I be freed from their restraints? How can I live my life? Will it all end the same as the previous life? If it's like that then why am I born again?" arabella's feelings were completely mixed up, she was panicked, worried, and also upset. He really did not want to continue to be trapped and under the control of his mother and half-sister.
"Alright, we'll talk about the deal tomorrow. I'll send you a letter to the residence. Lady, what's your name?" Arabella was surprised he did not expect that the Duke would accept his advice even though it has not been given certainty, but this is enough to make Arabella happy.
"My name is Arabella de Carlos, Duke" Arabella bowed her body then she raised her head and looked at the Duke's face at a glance.
"Handsome" muttered Arabella, yet it could still be heard.
