Fake Wife of the Duke

CHAPTER 34

Madami nang nagbago sa mansyon ni Felix. Nawala lang ako ng tatlong buwan!

It looks lively than before.

Nakita ko si manang na kumakaway sa may hagdanan parang naiiyak ako nang maalala ang sinabi sa akin ni General Mak.

I tried to tell Felix about it pero baka hindi niya lang din sagutin! Umiiwas siya pag tinatanong ko siya!

Humigpit ang hawak ko kay Felix, natatakot na baka galit si manang sa akin. She's been a great servant to me! Parang ina ko na rin siya.

"What's wrong?" tanong ni Felix sa akin.

Agad naman akong umiling.

"Manang will still be the who will assist you," sabi niya.

Tumango lang ako at tinignan si manang na nakangising kinukuha ang aking mga bagahe.

Inakyat na niya ito sa aking silid.

Nilibot naman namin ni Felix ang mansyon. Although I've been here, it felt like it's my first time being here!

"I made some renovations when you were away," panimula ni Felix.

Nakinig lang ako at tinignan ang mga binago na mga sulok.

"Sinabi ni manang sa akin na ayaw mo daw sa maalikabok at madumi kaya I hired new servants to look after the mansion," patuloy niya.

I looked at him, processing what he just said.

Really? Just for me?

Nakatalikod siya sa akin at may mga sinasabi pero hindi ko na maintindihan because I'm busy admiring him.

I never knew the Duke has this soft spot in him, it makes me fall for him again and again!

He stopped and looked at me. Kunot noo niya akong tinignan.

I stared at his red eyes, hoping that I can find something, some secrets that only him knows. Even it's impossible.

"Is there something on my face?" nalilitong tanong niya.

I softened my gaze and walked towards him.

"Well... I just thought that you might have more soft spots on you" I teasingly said.

He groaned in annoyance and I laughed.

Yumuko siya at niyakap ako.

"You're my soft spot Venna," he confessed.

I hugged him back, tighter than his grip on me because I don't know what to do anymore!

"That's why I can't lose you again, kapag iiwan mo ako ulit, hindi ko na alam ang gagawin" he whispered.

I sighed and rubbed his shoulders.

"I will never leave you again,"

Kinalas niya ang yakap niya sa akin at tinignan ako.

I was taken a back when I saw a burning passion through his eyes. Hindi maganda ang epekto nun sa akin kaya lumayo ako sa kaniya at iniwan ulit siya doon.

My legs trembled as I walk to God knows where!

Bakit ganun siya makatingin sa akin! Nakakapang-init ng katawan!

I felt his hands circled on my waist and I stiffened pero patuloy pa rin ang paglalakad namin.

Iginiya niya ako sa may hardin. My favorite place noon hanggang ngayon!

We were both silent as we sat down.

Ang mga trabahante niya ay lumilingon sa banda namin. Some of their faces are unfamiliar to me.
