Evil Duke, Please Be Gentle!

Chapter 270 – [Bonus Chapter] For Myself!

"You are fired. You do not need to come for tomorrow. Pack your bags and leave!"

"That.. that was not me! You have some misunderstanding, my lord!" Elisa shook inwardly, not even in her thoughts had she believed that Leo would find her that also so easily! 

If she would not agree then there was no way that he would be able to prove it. So, even when he was standing there tall, with his strong regal aura, looking at her like she was a pest, she did not accept defeat!

Though she was trying to protect herself in the quivering tone, his drained face and astonished eyes when Leo called her name gave her away.

"Instead of hiding in the dark, thinking that no one would notice you, you should have cleaned your hands first to get rid of the evidence!" Leo took out the napkin from his pocket and held her finger that had a few stains of oil. 

It must have fallen on her when she was pouring it on the floor before running away.

Everyone's eyes widened and a gasp escaped their lips when they saw the scene but when Leo's eyes scanned all of their faces, they froze in fear and did not dare to move or say a word. They even hold their breaths to not be noticed by the man.

He was colder than his father and did not believe in giving second chances.

"That.. that!" She wanted to think of more excuses or plead for forgiveness as the last resort but before she could do so, two knights came and held her hands and took her away.

"Who is in incharge here!"

  When Elisa was taken away, they had thought that the matter ended but the cold voice of the man filled the room again.

Now they were afraid that more jobs would be lost among them. The girl who had brought Evan was most scared, she was just curious about the girl who had won the heart of their prince! 

That was why she had lied that Leo had asked her to take in, if the truth would come out, she would be the one to lose her job too.

"My lord!" The baron came out of the office when he heard about the matter. He knew it was not a good idea, but when the girls told her that they would take good care of Evan, he had thought that Leo would let it slide or might be pleased that his future wife got such a warm welcome.

But who would have thought that the matter would escalate so much.

As soon as he came out of the room, he was welcomed by the menacing aura of the man who was scanning everyone's face as if he had x-ray in his eyes.

"My lord, I apologize for the mistake, but we only wanted to welcome the lady and show our warm side to him. 

I still bow my head as an apology!" with his soft tone, he bowed his head.

Everyone exchanged their glances and bowed their heads too.

Leo had decided that he would punish the organizers too as they did not notice the incident, but the word "warm side" worked as an alarm bell and he realized that he forgot that he had to act as a warm person.

He had again showed her his cold and displeased look! 

He cleared his throat that instant and adjusted the reactions of his face, "since this was only an accident, i will not pursue the matter further.

But if it ever gets repeated then I will dismiss everyone present on that spot!" 

Once done, he did not spare another glance to the crowd who was finally relieved that their life had been spared.

While the baron was shocked, though he had bowed his head, he was sure Leo would not have let them go easily, looking at his eyes that were blooming with dark clouds. How did he turn kind?

"And you!" he walked toward Evan who was looking at her with dazed eyes. She was still shocked that he had fired the girl.

Only a warning would have been enough or a slight punishment! 

"Yes, my lord!" she held her dress and bowed properly, she did not want to irk the angry man further.

"If you are done with gossiping, come with me, we still have a lot of work to do!" He held her hands by her wrist and dragged the confused girl from there.

Bringing her into the room, he closed the door shut and then turned to look at her!

"Haven't I told you to stay here and not fall into any trouble!" he turned to look at her and asked in a seductive voice while his eyes were still warm.

Evan blinked as she looked at the man, his face did not have that cold aura, but looked devoid of every emotion so she did not know if he was furious or not!

"But havent you asked the girl to call me and give me company? I did not want to go there in the first place as I knew this was going to happen!" she had even denied so many times, yet that girl had not listened. And Evan did not want to create trouble for her, that was why she agreed!

She glared at the man who was responsible for the event but now he was putting all the responsibility on her! 

Leo frowned when he listened to her! When it comes to nobles he had never trusted any of them to entrust them with the responsibility of taking care of Evan!

"Me! Why would I ask anyone to give you company when I want all of you for myself!?"
