My Annoying Duke's

When there is only hatred

Nicole has just arrived in Artaleta after almost 9 months of study abroad. Lisa who came to pick him up at the port looked very happy. Same as happy. He hasn't been home for a long time. Now he came home to pay his promise to marry someone.

A week after her departure, she made a letter to the Duchess of Vanguard to answer a proposal to marry Valentino.

"It is with pleasure that I accept My duchess's proposal"

And when he returned to Artaleta for a while, he met with Juan and the Duchess to make sure the marriage would take place.

"You look different, Nicole." Lisa hugged her beloved cousin.

Nicole smile. "I'm still the old Nicole, I'll never change."

Lisa let go of her embrace. "Are you going to meet the Vanguard family today?". Nicole just nodded her head.

"Are you sure?"

Nicole looked at Lisa's face inside. "Don't question my beliefs, Lisa."

"All right, let's go home. I'll get you ready quickly. I want you to look beautiful in front of your future husband." Lisa grabbed Nicole's shoulder quickly.

"You are reliable!" Nicole is happy.

"Are you not tired?" Ask Lisa again.

"No!"

Imelda seemed to be preparing the flowers at the table. Tonight Nicole will arrive to discuss her marriage to Vale. Imelda's happiness is completely complete already. It hummed.

"Mother." said Zest while hugging Imelda from behind.

"What's the queen doing?"

"You're really very happy. Is it because of my sister's wedding?"

Imelda whispers. "Yes, because up to now your sister doesn't know if I've proposed to Lady Nicole."

Zest. "Didn't my sister know?"

Imelda shook her head. "Tonight he must have been surprised. I'm looking forward to it."

"Oh my goodness, mother..."

“I'm very confident in my piihan.”

“Yes mom, I once felt guilty for being jealous of Nicole. His heart is very good. I'll really welcome him now.”

Other place.

Vale was aiming for his arrow to hit the target. When the arrow was released, the arrow bow hit the target. Today he did nothing. Three months ago her mother told her about the wedding. He had secretly proposed to a girl for her. Vale was grateful that his mother did not wave the girl for him. The girl wasn't in Artaleta anyway. But who is the girl disguised by her mother?

It turned out that he could accept a girl other than that girl.

But what would happen if that girl married him? Suddenly his mind floated. How could he live with a girl he hated?

Without feeling Vale has long been on the field. He's back home. He saw his mother very happy. The flowers seemed to be scattered everywhere. Seeing his mother happy like that, he could not resist.

He had to start preparing because it seemed like his family had prepared.

Nicole clasped Lisa's arm tightly. His heart is beating fast. It feels like something is going to happen. It must be because the man did not know if he would be his wife.

"You're so pretty, Nicole." Lisa's

"I look beautiful because of the touch of your hand. You have to remember that."

Lisa laughs.

When Vale came down from his room, he saw his mother at the door to greet his future wife. The sound of the train. He was sure it was his future wife coming. Out of curiosity, he accompanied his mother.

"You'll be surprised to see it." Imelda was pleased. Vale just looked at his curious mother.

Slowly a woman came out of the car. Vale frowned. It was like he had met that girl. Wait, there's another girl coming out. The girl lowered her head as she went down. He tried to see the girl.

Face lifted. And Vale was shocked beyond measure. "Mother!" The screech.

Vale endured his deep disappointment. He's really angry. He stared at the girl who looked so beautiful. It's been 9 months that the girl's been outside Artaleta. How could his mother propose to the girl when she was outside Artaleta. He looked at his mother. What plan did his mother make?

He went inside without caring for Nicole who was walking closer to him.

Everything feels stiff. When everyone was talking, Vale just fell silent. The food in front of him did not taste good. He stared intently at Nicole's happy face.

"Mother, if I'm allowed I want to talk to my future wife" Vale said with great pressure.

"Of course, you have a lot to say, don't you?" Imelda spirit.

The time has come, thought Nicole. They both went out together.

Vale held Nicole's arm tight. "What are you planning?" Angry asked.

Nicole smile. "Nothing."

"liks. How could my mother propose to you?I don't like you. I hate you so much!" vale was upset.

Nicole laughs. "Don't you ever live with the devil? That's why I'm trying to get it."

Vale stared at Nicole's face sharply. Nicole boldly draped her arms around Vale's neck. They became very close. Their faces are only a few inches different.

"Our marriage will be perfect. Because I will make you fall in love with me first. After that I will easily leave you. Isn't that what you're gonna do to me?" Whisper Nicole while kissing Vale's cheek. He slowly let go of his embrace of Vale and walked away from him.

All right, I'll follow your game. I will make you live with me like in hell, Vale thought.

Nicole walks in a vast desert. He felt his legs were heavy. What the hell happened to him? Suddenly a sandstorm hit him. She's terrified. His body hurts from being shaken. There was a voice of someone who was heard laughing at him. He looked with great difficulty. The sadistic face of Vale was laughing at him. Nicole tried to grab the man's arm for help. But the man pushed her to the point of falling.

When I woke up, there were a lot of people around. They're laughing. Not only that, the men threw him with rotten eggs. In addition there were some women who kicked him even pulling his hair

Why is his life like this? What mistake? When he fell to the ground, Lisa's voice resuscitated him.

Nicole opened both her eyes. He looked at Lisa's face, looking at him palely. He knew he had just been dreaming. Lisa sits next to the bed and helps Nicole wake up. He wiped away the sweat that filled his other face and body. Nicole started crying.

“What's wrong with you, Nicole?”ask Lisa worried. Nicole got up from her sleep and ran out. He ran to see Vale. He doesn't care about the night. He had to meet the man he was going to marry in a few days. He doesn't care about Lisa's call. He just wanted to see the man immediately. He wants to end it before it's too late.

Vale had just changed his clothes in a sleeping robe when the door of his room was knocked. He opened it and saw his guard standing in front of his room. “I'm sorry young master. Someone wants to meet you tonight.”

Vale scrunched his forehead. “Night like this?”

“Sounds very important, Mr.”

“Who?”

“Lady Nicole.”

Vale smiled happily. A few days ago they met to prepare for their wedding counting the days. Is Nicole so impatient to marry him?

Nicole walked hurriedly into Vale's room. It took strength and courage for him.When the door opened, he went in and found Vale standing in front of an open window.

Vale turned his back and was stunned to see Nicole look. She wears a nightgown and disheveled hair. “Did you come here to tease me?”tanyakanya. Slowly he approached Nicole.

Nicole retreated slowly. He said with a tremble. “I want to cancel it. I want to end it all.”

Vale frowned. “Cancel the wedding at the last moment? So this is your real plan? To embarrass my family?”ask Vale angry

“Not.not that I mean.” Nicole shook her head.

Vale pulled Nicole's waist down easily. He did it quickly. So there was no chance for Nicole to step down. “I won't let you ruin my family name. I won't let it!”exciting Vale. A second later his lips had already crushed Nicole's lips forcefully. Nicole tried to escape. But the power of the Vale is not easily released.

“I'll make your life hell. Catch that!”snapping Vale while pushing Nicole's body to the door.

Nicole groans in pain. But Vale doesn't care. He was so angry and upset.

Vale stared at Nicole's departure from her bedroom window. She recalled being told by her mother early last month about the wedding plans. I was so surprised to find out the prospective bride was Nicole. The person he hated the most.

For almost 9 months he did not listen. It was just that when he returned to Artaleta, he heard that the girl was seeing Juan. The anger and hatred were so deep in the girl. Juan used to say that Nicole had changed. But he doesn't believe.

At first Vale refused firmly but the charm of Nicole who was a little teasing at that time made her approve of the marriage suddenly. Then now, that woman wants to cancel their wedding? Vale shook his head. He clenched his hand tightly.
