"I thought you would not come." It was the third time she had repeated the same words. Her eyes were looking at the floor when his eyes softened.

"Why are you thinking so much about it? I have already told you that I liked you when we used to work together." he tucked her hair behind her ears and smiled at her.

He was so nervous at that time, who would have thought that things would work out just fine.

"Yes, and I have replied that we will only marry if we are able to save some money.

I did not want to see my kids suffering because we do not have money for them.

Not to forget my ill mother, her treatment already cost my whole salary.

But I could not leave her be. She had taken care of me when I was young.. If it were not for me, she would have lived a better life." Ethan hugged the girl in her arms with love. He knew how much she had suffered alone. Whenever he felt her voice choke with worry, he felt like he would kill the whole world just to bring her enough happiness.

Hannah wrapped her hands around his waist while she leaned further on his chest. This feels so much perfect that he did not want this moment to ever pass but hold it in so that he could live it for forever.

"But those were things of the past. I didn't know that you were the son of a duke at that time.

Girls like me should be your servant not your wife. I am sure that the family of the duke would never accept me as their eldest daughter in law.`` After all, he would be the duke in future and his wife would be duchess.

Who would accept a commoner for that post! She did not want to be a hurdle in his better future.

"Tsk! Didn't I tell you not to think about these things? You were with me when I needed someone in my life.

Not to forget that when you accepted my proposal I was no one. So how can I leave you now that I have money?

The wealth of the whole empire is nothing in front of you." he kissed her forehead gently as he cherished the moment.

He remembered her telling that she would only marry him when he would be rich enough to support her and their kids as she did not want to live in poverty.

That time, he had thought that it would never be possible for him since he did not have land or properties, but who would have thought that god would listen to him.

He was the luckiest being!

"Stop embarrassing me. I am already embarrassed to ask you money every time we meet.

Only yesterday, you have given me so much money for my mother's treatment but I have asked you for more in the morning, so that I could return the loan I have taken from the market.

They are troubling me a lot for their money these days." she bit her lips as she distanced herself from him.

Her eyes were full of worry and her face downcasted when he felt guilty.

She had asked him for money thinking that he could arrange it for her. She had trusted him so much yet he was not able to get money from Leo. that brat! Who was he to refuse money to him? It is not like he was misusing it.

He even told Leo that he needed money to help someone but Leo did not listen at all repeating the same words again and again.

"I did not know what I would have done, if not for you. Though I am still feeling embarrassed to ask for money from you." he looked towards his eyes and frowned when she saw his face full of guilt.

He looked away when he felt her intense gaze and shook her head.

"Hannah, i am sorry but i was not able to arrange for money. My aunt died last night and my father went to her house to investigate.

I had asked for money from him last night but he did not return home in the morning. Can the money lender wait for sometime?" he was not able to meet his eyes as he felt embarrassed. How could he be a disappointment when she had trusted him so much.

"Oh! That.. that is ok. I will ask for more time from them. But.. but your father must have given responsibility to someone who would look after all the affairs of the palace. Why not ask him, I am sure he would listen to you and give you money as much as you want.

After all you are the eldest son of the duke. The only heir among three children." her words made him furious again. The cold words and actions of Leo fell in his ears again and his face burnt.

"That…" he did not know how to explain it to her but he did not want her to misunderstand him that he did not want to help her, he took a deep sigh as he sat down on the sofa while her eyes followed his every action,

"Father chose Leo to be in authority when he was not there and Leo refused to give me money, telling me that I had received enough money last night.

If I want more, I should wait for my father. So, I have no choice but to wait for him.`` The girl felt upset but nodded her head in understanding. She followed and sat beside him while wrapping her arms around his waist and leaning her head on his chest.

"I am sorry that you have to bear the insult because of me. I may sound rude but I think that your brother is trying to oppress you so that he would not lose his power.

After all, he is not your real brother."
