The Monstrous Grand Duke’s Fake Lady - Chapter 134

As the surrounding atmosphere was astir, the man who was referred as the Baron finally boasted his own vanity. He slapped Ez’s hand away as if it was filthy before he gave a side glance.

“Birds of a feather really do flock together.”

He gave a piercing smile at Vivian after looking at Ez, who could only bite down his own lips, unable to say anything at all.

Back then, he couldn’t do as he wanted since he wasn’t with his entourage, but it was definitely different now. He had his followers with him and his identity had been revealed as well. As he was already on his high horse, he didn’t even try to hide his depraved desire at all.

His eyes turned to Vivian as if he was licking her. Her face was just mediocre since light freckles had suffused over her nose, but the mysterious look in her eyes gradually made his heart aflutter.

The body below her neck was all covered up with clothes, but he could still see that it was quite curvy.

Since he had just finished his public affair, he couldn’t meet up with any women, which eventually made his body heat up. As vigor started to surge all over his lower region, he then got even angrier—like he was just making a show out of it.

“Today, I’ll give you a lesson so that you know your own place. Drag that wench away!”

Before she could be surprised by the sudden order, his entourage had already gotten hold of Vivian’s arms.

“Ma’am!”

Ez tried to approach her quickly, but the other person had swiftly blocked him. He couldn’t even move a step further as he was held back by the arm and he was utterly overpowered.

Even if he writhed his body around, Ez, who was only an ordinary young man, just could not win against the other trained man.

“Let me go!”

Vivian resisted, but it didn’t work at all. The more she defied, the stronger their grip had gotten—similar to the Venus flytrap when sucking on its prey. Even if she held her feet down firmly, she was still dragged away helplessly.

As Vivian got hauled to the Baron’s side, he instantly drew a wicked smile. Rather than watching the hectic festival, he had unexpectedly obtained an interesting thing to do before he buaily moved his steps towards his own residence.

“Baron John.”

“Wh-who is it!”

He shouted while being shocked when someone had actually dared to call upon a noble’s name without any honorific attached. Who could have the guts to call out his name this direct? Every time he turned his gaze, people were all busy avoiding him.

Thanks to that, it was not that difficult to find the man who had brazenly called out his name in the middle of the crowd.

His brows furrowed when he saw the man had calmly accepted his gaze without even turning his head away. And it was also because the man’s figure, who was donning an old robe, had reminded him of the shameful event that transpired during the rainy day.

“Ha, it’s you again? This time, I won’t let you easily—”

“I’m sure I’ve clearly said it—that I’ll cut open your mouth if you have wrongly misspoken.”

“Wh-what did you just say?”

The Baron’s face immediately flushed at Knox’s words. As his pride that was barely even filled had gotten cut, he became furious before he hit the ground with the cane in his hand.

Back then, he was overwhelmed by that man’s aura, but this time was different. He had his entourage and again, his identity had already been revealed. No matter how he looked at the situation, he still had the upper hand. The Baron didn’t bother to hide his anger.

“I’m sure I said that I won’t let you off if we meet again! Alright, I’ll also show you your place as clearly—”

“Baron John. You have a house in the Hilstein area, don’t you? You can’t even make an entrance into the political world, so you tried by digging some money here and there, but still, you just barely avoided looking that bad. I heard that you’re living with the support from your relatives on your mother’s side and also, you’re currently having a hard time since you’re busy playing around with your lover. So, do you even have the luxury to play around in this kind of place then?”

Silence permeated the area in an instant. His affairs that had been revealed in a flash were something rather embarrassing to say about.

Eventually, the commoners around him began to stir once again when they found out that despite the fact that he had been living extravagantly, he was still beneath them all. People were all staring at the Baron while making a bigger uproar than ever before.

“Who are you! Who sent you!”

The Baron’s previously flushed face had turned blue. He felt like his clothes were suddenly stripped off right in the middle of the street.

Everything is all true. How did he find out? Even my mistress? Don’t tell me; my wife had already found out and sent him as the assassin? Beads of cold sweat slowly trickled down his back.

“Looking at the way you speak, I can understand why you’re still only at the level of a Baron.”

While he was saying that, Knox lifted the hood of his robe. When his face was finally revealed amidst the hot atmosphere, the Baron’s face immediately turned white this time.

“Gasp…! S-sir Grand Duke!”

“Seems like your eyes do work properly.”

“Why are you here at this kind of…”

The blood-stained eyes had made it very clear that he was Grand Duke Bright himself.
