Evan knew that it was going to happen but it still happened much earlier than she had expected. She wanted to tell him to leave but she knew that her father was also suffering a lot.

These days she felt like he was ageing so fast that each day he looked 10 years older than before.

"Tsk! If you are tired, take a break. Why are you standing here like you are planning to commit suicide?" she pulled him back and dared him back to the room.

Though she felt that there was something amiss. If he was upset about the discussion in the morning, then why did he start working. And if he had started working, who made him so hurt that he left midway?

Could it be that Ethan had approached him personally and they had an argument?

If not for his dim eyes and his face that resembled a grim reaper, She would have asked him about it in detail.

"Where are we going?" he asked as his brows furrowed when she did not stop in front of the study table but dragged him out of the room.

If he wanted, he could have jerked away her soft hands easily but when he realized how much he had ignored her and her needs these days, his heart filled with guilt.

But he had to go back and work. They have not been given any tasks since they came back from the war, so he had time since they were only training.

But now he was given the task to protect the royal family, thanks to his own father who had threatened them so openly.

Every Time he remembered it, he wanted to bang his head on the wall. He should have just gone in there stealthily and killed Andrew! But no! He made it so dramatic that everyone turned to look at him twice when he went out and whispered a lot of words.

Not to forget that the emperor could accuse them for treason!

If that was not enough for that man, Ethan, since the moment the truth came out, he demanded the post of duke. As if he had come here with full planning to inherit everything. He did not let him take a single breath of relief!

With so much on his plate, how could he have time for his wife, the sole reason for his existence in this very place.

Or wish so much pressure he would have given up and left the empire to try his luck in another country.

"We are going out. It has been a long time since we have gone out. I need some time to spend with my husband and you need to breathe fresh air.

Jenna, do you have what I asked you for a few days ago?" ignoring the confusion and intimidation of his face, Evan dragged him to his room well now theirs.

Whenever he tried to stop her, she glared at him with fierce eyes and threatened to divorce him since he did not love her anymore.

The maid nodded and soon returned with two pairs of clothes, one for the man and the other for the woman of the commoners.

"Thank you Jenna, I promise you will be paid handsomely." the maid bowed and taking it as her clue, left the room.

If she knew more than this, she would be in trouble later.

"What is all this? If you want to go out, I can arrange a visit to the town. Or we can go to the training ground. Why do I need to wear this?" He gave a look to clothes with a disapproving face.

He had a hunch what she was trying but he did not want to worry father more than he already was or he was sure that the duke would end up in a mental hospital.

"Tsk! Do you call a visit to the training ground a date? How unbefitting of a man who got married a few days ago.

If you are not taking me on a date, then I will visit church and ask for divorce.

The choice is yours. You want to go out with me or shall I go to church?" without giving him much choice, she picked up the piece of clothing and walked in the bath area to change her clothes giving him a glance that said, you better be ready when i come back or i am going to throw you out of the palace this time.

He pinched the space between his brows when she left and shook his head. Knowing very well that she would not relent, he changed his clothes too.

The cloth was coarse and rough with no jewel in it. When the door opened she came back. She was wearing a simple cotton dress that was looking lackluster but with a smile on her face, even that simple dress was making her look no less than a queen.

Her regal aura could not be hidden by a single dress.

"Are you ready? Are we leaving?" She looked like an excited child that was jumping in the room on the name of going out and he nodded instinctively.

"Yay! You do not have to think much. I have already decided where we are going." she wrapped her hands around his neck as she laughed brightly and he knew that he was already defeated badly.

Walking out of the room, instead of taking the back door, they walked from the secret passageway that would directly leave them out of the palace.

"Are we going to walk to the town? You know that it would take ages right?" He could not understand why they had walked through the secret door when it took them more than a hour just to reach out of the place and now the town is so far away.

"We are going to have our mini adventure, so stop complaining like an old man. Are you even a knight with those words??"
