Disguised Bride of The Ruthless Duke 65. This time, I will do it for my daughter.
Chloe sat in silence. She should have known this woman's tricks better. At least, she shouldn't have any expectation of better things with Alice around. "You want me to make them hate and then leave. Is that what you want?" Chloe asked, her tone turned colder. Leaning on the couch, she gave her a victorious smirk. "Yeah, Very simple. I want you to get lost from this Palace. How will you do it, I don't know. As I said, one week, you have only seven days to vacant this place, Chloe Isabelle." "Fine then..." Chloe started calmly. "I will get out of here in a week. But, you have to keep my secrets in... Please, Alice." "Oh baby, I will think about that. It entirely depends on my mood." Realising, it wouldn't work to argue with her, Chloe stood up and left. The entire time she kept herself strong till she stepped inside Melissa's door. Both Melissa and Jessica were sleeping. Chloe didn't get the time to control herself and she broke down on the floor. Her cry woke up both ladies in
Disguised Bride of The Ruthless Duke 66. I agree...
Alexander woke up with little Leo in his arms. Holding him, he tried to find Chloe but there was no trace of her on the bed. Frowning, he opened his eyes only to find the bed and the room empty. Setting Leo on the place, he left the bed. He opened the huge double door and bumped into Chloe. She was startled, stumbled on her feet but caught by her husband. "What happened? Where are you rushing?" Alex frowned, still holding her tightly. Chloe blinked. She did not expect this encounter. They still had enough time to sleep. She was hurrying to be in bed so that none of them would realise she wasn't in bed. However, seems she has been caught by Alex. Why it's always her to face bad luck!? Now, she needs to make lie after lie just to cover one truth! Her life revolved around lies Now-a-days. Her mother was right. Should she just confess? "Penny for your thoughts, dark eyes?" His words brought her out of her thoughts and she shook her head. "It's nothing, I was... strolling only." She

Chloe's gaze travelled to the three people one by one. Confused and stunned at their sudden proposal. "It's you, who sent me into this." Finally, she got her voice to speak. "Why now?" This is still unbelievable for her that Evans now wants her to leave the Rossi palace. An hour ago, Harper Evans escorted her to the Evans Manor from her office, saying it was an emergency. The people in the palace thought something might happen to her father. However, a few people know there might be some other reason. And they were right. Alexander did not protest and let her take leave. He wants to see the end of this game and how they do it. Right now, Evans wanted her to quit the game they started through her. "That's because we want this to happen, Chloe." Maiden Anastasia spoke. Suddenly, she started behaving like a mature adult. Calm and cold. It was so unlike her. Blinking, Chloe stared at them in disbelief. It's hard to accept for her that God has screwed her in every possible way. It f
Disguised Bride of The Ruthless Duke 68. Throw her out...
Chloe heard the gasping sounds around. However, her only concentration was Alexander and he was still blank, staring at her. Somehow, encouraging her to speak. And Chloe started again, "That lady there..." She pointed at her mother a little steps away from her. "She is Jessica Clowne. She is not Melissa's mother but mine. Melissa wasn't ever my maid but my best friend in the Evans Manor. And..." Her eyes then landed on the last person she reluctantly wanted to introduce. It was Alice and she was stunned, staring at her in disbelief. Where did this stupid and worthless woman get all the courage to tell the truth? "This woman there is my cousin sister. Alice's Clowne. She somehow came out as Leonor's birth mother which was a shock for me too." She sighed and then turned her gaze to Alexander again. "I can come up with many excuses now that they forced me to do it and all, which they did. They did threaten me with my hospitalized mother to take Maiden Anastasia's place because she di

Damien holds Margott by the throat again and throws her aside. "It's all because of you and your greedy daughter! You have ruined my whole plan! Don't you get what you want three years ago, huh? Now you are doing this again!" Pinching her cheeks he pulled her close to his face. "What do you think, the truth you are hiding won't come out ever? This is just the beginning and soon, he will know." He laughed like a maniac, scaring Margott like hell "Actually, he doesn't even have to know! He already kicked your daughter out of the palace!" Saying, he kicked her once and strode out like a sudden storm that just come, destroyed and gone. Margott sat on the floor to catch her breath. Damien's words kept ringing in her ear. 'He has kicked out your daughter.' She immediately dialled Alice's number, yet no one picked up. Margott kept dialling her number. However, it's all in vain... ******** Chloe was sitting on the sofa in the hall, still doubtful of the sudden turn in the situation. S

Chloe caressed the sleeping little fellow's back lovingly and waited for her husband to come. He has become a very busy man these days. Yet, she can't complain. The more huge the business, the more pressure of work arrives. And Chloe understood that. She is just a little impatient to ask him a few things. Finally, an hour later, Alexander entered the room and found her pacing around. He walked toward her and held her in his arms, sniffing her refreshing scent. "You're back..." Chloe muttered, inhaling his masculine scent and he hummed only. "Hmm... I missed you." He said and breaking hug, Chloe watched him in amusement. "Weren't we together just a few hours ago? Already missed me?" She finds this funny and childish for a grown man like him. He nodded seriously. "I do! I was missing you like crazy." He hugged her again and sighed in contentment. Both stood there for some time and finally, Chloe broke the silence. "Umm... Can I ask you something?" She asked. "Hmm." Alexander hum

Chloe entered the Palace with a thudding heart. She arrived alone here, giving some excuses at home and thankfully, no one doubted her. The way Anthony sounded on the phone was not pleasant at all. His tone hinted a trouble and she was here to face it alone. First, she would learn what happened and then tell her husband. Did he get to know the truth already? Maybe, he did. But how? Alexander ordered everyone to seal every mouth in the castle, didn't he? Then how? Did anyone choose to betray him? Or, it was an outsider? Then again, how would an outsider know the inside news? Thinking this and that, Chloe finally stepped inside the main entrance of the palace and was gritted by assistant Carson. As usual, there was no expression on Carson's face. He slightly bowed at her and led the way. He brought her to the third floor, in Anthony's office. Unlike their other meetings, this one seems more formal and strange. When she was in, Anthony was sitting behind his desk, having his expen
Disguised Bride of The Ruthless Duke 72. I love him.
Chloe walked out of the palace. She answered Anthony so confidently, not letting him see her broken side. How could she not? She just came across the truth which is still unbelievable for her. Could it be all lies? Should she ask her mother about this? But, if she asks and this comes out as a lie, her mother would be hurt. But, what if this all are true? What would she do then? Chloe felt helpless and confused. She doesn't want to go back home. There she has to face everyone and she has no strength left. Asking the Chauffeur to return to the palace, she came out to the road and started walking without any direction. Her life suddenly felt like clueless. She does not know any goal in her life. As she was walking, drowned in her own sorrows, she did not notice she just came down on the main road, dangerously close to the speed-up cars. And as soon as she was about to step in the middle, she was pulled back by force and the back of her head hit something hard. Immediately, a speed-

Surprised, Chloe turned around and saw a couple of steps away Alexander was standing with a light on him too! This came as a shock for her as her eyes widened and for a moment she was speechless. "Alexander..." With a bright smile on his face, he took a step forward to his wife. "Good Evening, Dutchess." Chloe didn't reply to anything. Well, basically she couldn't as she kept staring at her husband in disbelief. Her state made him chuckle, as he started taking his steps forward slowly. "A year ago, exactly on this day, I have seen you. With your little and insecure steps, you have entered my cold palace. You were scared and I was ruthless, as usual." Alexander stopped a few feet away from her now and continued with his words. "I thought I always knew what I wanted from life. And then I see your eyes, my most favourite gems in the world. At that very moment, my world turned upside down and I stood confused. Not sure anymore what to do. I started doing things I was sure that I wou
Disguised Bride of The Ruthless Duke 103. Epilogue I
A few months later... Chloe twirled around in front of the mirror, looking down on the plumped figure of her fully grown ten month pregnancy. The whole family, specially under the continuous care of her husband, Chloe passed the dangerous pregnancy times and now everyone was waiting for the new member to arrive. Though it was already declared that she could not have a normal delivery due to her complications, Chloe accepted the fact and was always ready for her operation in mind. "Oh! You look so beautiful, darling!" Jessica chimed in happiness while her eyes turned teary. "I am so excited about this!" This woman was hell emotional! But, Chloe liked that about her mother. Sometimes she was crazy enough to give headaches and that was the beauty of this woman. These months Chloe has spent her most beautiful and memorable days with her mother. And the bond only grew stronger. Still, none of them spoke about the adoption or her real parents. Chloe has buried the truth for the better.
Disguised Bride of The Ruthless Duke 102. As you wish, Dutchess.
No matter how much one tries to hide the truth, it never could be hide. Maybe, it would take years to come forward, but it would be in front of you just when you started thinking that your life was complete. That is exactly what happened to Chloe. In her point of view, her life was going perfectly, but God had another plan for her and the brown file came in front of her. The moment she opened it, she regretted giving in to her greed and not choosing to walk away. Because the file describes a truth she never thought Alexander would hide from her. It's the file of her real identity. The description of her real parents and how she was separated from them. However, Chloe did not see everything. When she realised the meaning of that file, she immediately closed it and slumped down on the chair behind her. Meanwhile, Alexander and Cameron also walked out of the meeting area and stopped seeing her. They saw the file in her hand and it did not take them time to understand what just happ

"Sleep well at night?" Chloe asked taking a bite of her favourite buttered pancake with a sly smirk plastered on her face. Melissa groaned hiding her face on the pillow. "Shut it now, will you, bitch? How long will you tease me with this?" Both friends were sitting in the gazebo, their favourite place. However, the word 'bitch' caught Leo's ears. Stopping his work, he threw his displeased glance at Melissa. Immediately, she bit her tongue and apologised. "I am sorry, young Mistress, for my words." Satisfied, he once again focused on his work. Melissa "....." Leaning toward her best friend, she rolled her eyes. "Seriously?" Chloe enjoyed the scene. Her heart warmed up when her little boy stood up for her. She chuckled, feeling content. Every time it was Melissa who would torment her asking about her husband's behaviour towards her. She had to stay too cautious so that nothing was spelled too stupidly and give her new content for teasing. But, today it's different. Today Chlo

Chloe felt she was slammed down from the sky to the ground as her eyes jerked open. She was in a daze. At first, everything was fuzzy in front of her and slowly realisation started hitting her. She found herself in the topmost shameful situation she could ever put in. Seating on the kitchen table, hair and clothes were a mess and then there was her husband standing between her legs as his hand was on her very private part.Her breath hitched in her throat as she looked at those emerald-green orbs, staring at her in confusion and guilt. Alexander immediately cut the call without even looking at his phone and joined their foreheads. To divert her mind, his fingers, once again started doing his magic. Chloe's lips parted slightly and taking the chance he took her into a very deep kiss. The moment once again started heating up then... 'Bring ~ Bring ...' His phone started ringing again, stopping them with that annoying sound. Chloe "....." She was so irritated and angry at the sa
Disguised Bride of The Ruthless Duke 99. A horny mess.
Both Alex and Chloe heard the gasp. And her eyes widened in shock and her gaze snapped down to them, cursing in mind for their stupid mistake. Alexander's brows furrowed together in confusion. "What was that?" Both Melissa and Cameron counted their times on earth. Alex wanted to look behind but before that Chloe stopped him quickly. "Umm.. baby!" And that was enough for Alex to fix his gaze on his wife. Because for the first time after their marriage, she called him by that endearment. It was not that he was hearing this particular word from her for the first time. She always calls Leo that way. But for him, it's so different. As soft and adoring it was for Leo, that sexy and luring it sounded for him. Chloe also realised later what she had done. But it was done. She didn't know whether she made him angry or not. Because, most times she witnessed men hated this endearment, she never said it to him. Blinking her eyes she tried to speak. "Umm... I..." Yet then again, she was lost
Disguised Bride of The Ruthless Duke 98. Answer, Dutchess.
'Umm.. I.. I was scared by my own shadow!' Chloe stated, cursing herself inside for giving such a terrible excuse. 'Do tell me he believed it, please God!' She counted times for herself. "Scared by your shadow?!" Jessica asked in confusion. She has never seen her daughter so helplessly scared before. "Goodness! What were you thinking, Chloe? You scared all of us." She touched her shoulder lightly. "You feeling good now?" She nodded her head quickly with a smile "Yes, I am fine. Don't worry. And... And I am sorry for worrying you like that." She apologised. Jessica shook her head. "It's alright. You are fine and that's what is important." She patted her cheeks. "Go and sleep, okay?" Then turning to Alex she said, "Take care of her..." Both Jessica and Daniel turned around to leave but Jessica stopped. "Umm... Did you see Melissa?" She asked. Basically, she came out to find her when she did not see her at midnight. Chloe froze. "Uh... Why? Isn't she sleeping at this hour?" She ask
Disguised Bride of The Ruthless Duke 97. An unexpected mess.
Chloe huffed and sat up on the bed. Looking up at the huge wooden watch with a gold border she pouted her soft pink lips. "It's midnight and he is not here yet." Looking at her right side she sighed. "When he will come?" With another helpless sigh, Chlod laid on the bed, turning to her sleeping son. She held him softly and kissed his chubby cheeks. The habit of sleeping early she grew since she stepped into the palace as everyone went to bed earlier and woke up with the sun. This was the strict rule of Alexander. And Chloe liked the idea a lot. Previously, while living with her family, she needed to complete all the work and then go to bed in the last but needed to wake up before everyone. Sometimes, she couldn't get to sleep for more than an hour. Then she went to work in Evans. And it was kind of the same there too. Though Maiden Anastasia never pulled it after one at night, still the workload every day was enough exhausting for Chloe that 4-5 hours of sleep every day wasn't eno

"So, you guys finally decided to keep the baby... Congratulations." Richard smiled at them and the couple nodded. "Yes, we did... Mostly, it's me, doctor." Chloe confessed. "I understand the risque, still I am unwilling to let it go without a try." Alex caressed her hand, which he kept holding from the beginning. "It's alright, Chloe. You have your choice to decide. As a mother, it's your priority to do it. Only remember that you need to be careful always and always keep in touch with your gynaecologist." Richard suggested and they both nodded. "I will take care of her," Alex stated with determination. A few minutes later, the couple walked out of the hospital and settled into their car for home. On the way, Alexander got a call. However, when he saw the caller, he frowned. It was Alessandro Devonte once again. However, his change in expression did not go unnoticed by his wife. "What happened, Alex?" He shook his head. "Nothing... Work call." He replied blankly and with a nod,
