My Annoying Duke's

Crying happily

Vale was outside the palace to see the invitations coming. He was sent by John to watch over the palace. The wedding was beautiful and solemn. Although he saw his sister once pouting but he felt his life was perfect when he saw his beloved sister had married his best friend.

Suddenly his gaze was fixated on a woman who looked down while turning her body. He hid behind the trees around the palace. Vale narrowed his eyes to see clearly who the girl was. Another girl approached him. The girl turned her body and hugged another girl. He squinted his eyes and was immediately shocked because the girl was the woman he hated the most. The demon girl. The girl was crying. A Nicole crying?

A few years later the girl disappeared, and now she is back. He would not let the demon girl ruin his sister's marriage. He felt he had to approach her.

"You okay?" Lisa asked worriedly.

"I'm glad Juan got a very beautiful and gentle companion. I'm too happy to cry."

"Should we go home now?"

Nicole shook her head. "No. You continue your conversation with that guy. I want to be here any minute. I'll catch up with you."

"alright. If you want to go home, tell me" Lisa left while occasionally turning to look at Nicole.

Nicole sighed and started walking down the palace garden. It's walking slowly. The sound of music and boisterous applause sounded out. He sat down when he found a palace gazebo. He went inside and sat down and looked at the dark sky.

Heart hurts. Deep in his heart the deepest. Juan is the only man who can make her fall in love. He can't deny it if he's sad. One side of his heart he felt happy but the other side of his heart he felt deep sadness. Juan has his choice.

The sound inside the palace grew louder. Even the flowers bloomed beautifully signifying their happiness at the king's wedding. Why does he not?

If his life story was like this, how could he continue? Can he fall in love with another man as much as his love for Juan?

Vale was confused when he couldn't find Nicole where he was crying. He walked to find the girl. His eyes continued to search and found the girl sitting alone in the gazebo. His eyes looked at the sky. It's like he's thinking. What was the girl thinking? Is he thinking something? Something evil? He certainly wouldn't let it. He walked quickly and approached Nicole.

"If you're planning something evil, I won't let you get away with it!" Sahut Vale disperse Nicole's daydream.

Nicole was surprised and turned towards Vale. "What do you mean?"tanyanya's confused.

Vale smiled cynically. "I know what's in your brain. Your brain is like a demon. The contents could have been grudges and things that smell negative.”

Nicole involuntarily shed tears. "Why are you bad for me? Haven't you satisfied saying I'm a demon?"

"You are the devil. You know what you did a few years ago?"ask her with a loud voice.

Nicole wiped her tears slowly. "I admit it if I leave Juan for something. But I never hurt you. I even want to apologize for what I've done."

"Your apology won't get Juan back to you. He is married!" Cruelly follow.

"Oh my God, what's going on?"lisa asked when she caught up with Nicole. He went inside to say goodbye out of concern for Nicole. He heard a man say something no to his cousin. He approached Nicole and hugged her. "I'm sorry My Lord, but your words are inappropriate. You can't say anything bad about my cousin. You don't know anything. You're outrageous." Lisa grumbled as she carried Nicole away from Vale.

"I speak according to reality." Answer the sadistic Vale.

"You don't know about me!" Nicole taut.

"A descendant of a duke should not be allowed to say such a dirty thing. You have no ethics. Let's go home, Nicole. If you stay here your heart will get worse." Said Lisa while pulling Nicole's arm. The two of them left the place leaving Vale alone.

Vale stared at the departure of the two women in confusion. He felt that what he said was in accordance with what he knew and felt. Nicole girl wild. That's absolutely true. Go back inside. Because most importantly the destroyer of the event is gone.

He saw Zest standing majestically accompanied by her mother. His eyes looked at the couple dancing. "I'm looking for you." Said Juan touching his shoulder from behind.

"I'm sorry, Your Majesty. I was outside, " answered Vale.

"I knew. I saw you with Nicole. What are you guys talking about?"

Vale surprised. "I just gave a little warning.”

"really? I don't see it as a warning. I look at it like a couple fighting." Juan laughed as he walked towards Zest.

"That's right." Imelda suddenly said behind her.

"Mama?" Vale looks clumsy when dealing with his mother.

"What if mom proposes to that girl for you?"

Vale widened his eyes. "That can't be mom. Nicole is not a good girl. I don't want to anyway. It's not typeku. She's not a good wife." Rigorously.

"Name as Nicole ? Alright. Mama will find out. Mama saw her as a beautiful and educated girl" she said as she passed. Vale was glued to the spot. Why is everyone corrupting him? Is it wrong to do it for his brother?

When he returned to his room, he still could not think calmly. Applying Nicole? Never in his heart. Although there was a slight feeling of pleasure deep in his heart at the deepest.

○○○○

"Miss, outside many who send flowers" said one of the waiters.

Nicole is still finishing her makeup. " You keep it. Most about the application."

Since attending Juan's wedding, proposals for her have been overwhelming. But none of it he accepted. He did not want to take advantage of attending the event. Especially for men.

"OK, miss. There's one more. There's another letter for the lady." Her speech.

Nicole opened the letter slowly. He smiled when he saw the letter. His school application was accepted. Unbeknownst to anyone, he sent a request to continue his education before Juan got married.

He will continue his delayed schooling for several months. After Juan's marriage, Nicole didn't want to think about it for too long. He wanted to disappear from Artaleta for a moment and set his heart which is currently fragile.

Lisa, who was at home, was confused to see Nicole smiling herself when she approached her. "What's wrong?"

"My school application was accepted, Lisa." Excited speech.

"Thank you?" Lisa couldn't believe what she was hearing. He saw the letter. "Aren't you invited by King Juan to go with some nobles to the area left behind on that day?"

"I'll be here in a few hours. Then I'll go. I'll prove to the duke-to-be if I'm not the person he thinks I am. I've changed. I'm not the old Nicole."

"I'm glad to hear it." Lisa hugged her beloved cousin. "But I'll be lonely." Added.

"I'm sure Lord Evanders will often accompany you." Nicole Eject.

Lisa is nervous and lets go of Nicole's embrace. "I. We have no such relationship.."

"I'm not saying you have a relationship. I'm just saying that he must be with you."

Lisa was embarrassed.

Vale was walking in the palace when he passed Juan. Juan's face looks bright. Vale knew something had happened to his friend and king. It seems like marriage has changed her.

"Prepare yourself." Said Juan

"What are you planning, sire?"ask Vale confused.

"Here you go, don't call me your majesty. You must come with me to the Azalea region. You said Zest was there."

Vale nodded his head. "Why are we going there?"

"I want to see for myself there. Zest said the area was worse than Tonzoni. Some of my friends were invited including Lady Nicole. You should welcome him, right?" Juan glanced at Vale's attitude.

"What did you bring him? You want to make things worse? What if Zest finds out what happened to you?"

"Zest smart. I'm sure he won't be lured by the news. That's why I asked you to keep Nicole from getting close to my wife."

Vale looked at Juan. "Are you happy with this marriage?"

Juan stared back at Vale laughing "Of course I'm happy. That's why I asked you to get married. You'll be happy."

"Marriage is not in my dictionary. At least for now." Vale said it out loud.

"I know something." Juan's words confused Vale.

"What?"

"Your feelings for Nicole. You liked it long before I did, didn't you?" Juan's question made Vale shake his head quickly

"No!"quickly shouted.

"All right, it's up to you. I'm just wondering how you feel right now. But just so you know, my feelings for Nicole instantly disappeared when I met your sister" Juan explained as he walked away.

Vale was glued to the spot. How could Juan know about his feelings in the past? Was that girl the one who said it because she wanted to avenge him? How could? The girl did not even know about her feelings. No one knows. What's he supposed to do?

He saw Juan was beside Zest. Looking at them, there was a feeling of envy. The couple was very compatible. The timid Zest continues to be seduced by Juan. Would he get married and feel the same way? Who will be his companion? Who will feel his love? Who will he fall in love with? Who's the lady? How could he meet her?

Vale shook his head. He should start opening his heart to new people. He also must feel happiness.
