"What do you mean?" His face turned gloomy and darker instantly even Hannah who was expecting that Eli would leave with tears in her eyes was surprised with her reaction but soon, her surprise turned into a smirk.

That was good! The more they would fight, the more discord there would be. She wanted him to be completely dependent on him. Only listening to his words and acting on them.

"I mean..! Do you really not know?

You want to be the head of the family but are you even working hard for it. I understand that you are not educated or did not get the chance to learn etiquette. But it has been three months since you have been brought here.

How much have you learnt?

You often state that you are the real family while we are fake but when the condition of your father is this serious and your real sister is missing. You are having.. With the maid in the father's room while locking it and in the end, what do you know abo0ut this girl?

Let me tell you, from her way of standing and talking, I am sure that she is exploiting you. She is lying and faking her tears.

I have seen many like her but even if i would tell you that she is behind your money and think that you are an easy target, you are not going to believe me." Hannah could feel Eli's piercing gaze on her as if she could read all her thoughts.

Hannah panicked. She did not want Ethan to doubt her. If she convinced Ethan then not only would she lose the chance of being the duchess but his majesty would kill her.

She was tasked to sow discord and break the family of the duke. And she was just a step away from it. She had already sent Evelyn away and Evan.. she had made sure that she would not survive with the medicine she was taking.

Now what was left was Eli and Leo.. both are fake, they have to leave the palace either they want it or not.

"I.. you can say anything to me but please, do not blame him for supporting me.

I was an orphan with only an old mother to care for, that was why he felt pity on me. I am not dreaming of being the duchess of anything. I am just an ordinary maid, my lady.

Please!" Hannah moved forward and held her feet with a sobbing voice to show that she was so hurt yet she did not care about herself but Ethan.

Ethan, who was trying to mull over Eli's words, was shocked with the sudden turn of events. His hands clenched into a tight fist.

He took hasty steps towards them and then held Hannah's shoulders. He pulled her behind him and then stared at Eli with cold eyes.

"If you have any problem with me, you have to only accuse me. Why are you targeting her? She did not want to come here, I was the one who brought him here.

So, she is my responsibility." Eli shook her head. He was a gone case.

"Did you notice that even your words match her. You are speaking her language.

I always felt that you were being too aggressive but at least I know the reason now. I pity you.

You are gone too far that even if try to save you, you are only going to blame us.'' She could see the evil smirk on the face of Hannah.

She was not even trying to hide it anymore. Standing behind Ethan, she was full of arrogance as she knew that no matter what Eli would say, he was not going to believe in her.

"Leave this room. I will take care of my father. You are not needed here." she commanded in a cold voice when she felt Hannah holding the arms of Ethan as if she was scared.

He turned and softened his face as he shook it as if assuring her that she did not need to worry.

"Eli, there is some confusion here. I am the real child of this family while you are a guest.

If there would be someone leaving, then it should be you." his voice was calm and soft as if he was just reminding her the facts. "Do you want to see?" he asked with a raised brow and when she frowned, his smile widened.

"Maids!" he called in a loud voice and instantly many maids came in.

They all bowed their heads with respect.

"Escort lady Elizabeth to her room. She is not feeling well. I want you to serve her meals in her rooms only since she needs a lot of rest." her frown only grew deeper and she was about to tell him that he was spouting nonsense when he saw that the maids had circled around her.

"Come with us, my lady." They tried to get hold of her and took her out of the room when she stared hard at the maids.

The maids lowered her head but continued to follow his instructions.

"So he had already taken hold of all of you. Huh??" she asked in a cold voice but the maids did not reply.

"Let my hands go! I can walk by myself." with her leftover dignity. She took away her hands from their hold and this time they let Eli go easily.

She glared back at Ethan who had no regret in his eyes. In fact, his eyes were filled with contempt when he stared back at Eli.

"Y0u should know that you are a guest and live accordingly but you never learnt respect.

Even a dog knows whom it should bark on when it starts living with a master, but even as a human you have not learnt to be grateful and show loyalty. So, do not blame me for being harsh. But i hope that you will learnt your lesson through it."
