"Nothing big, but I just found something funny. Would father like to know about it?" Harris asked as he took his steps towards him.
Even though the Duke didn't answer him, he still kept talking.
.
"Since, the Duke isn't talking I would take it as a yes and keep my word here."
"Just do whatever you want but don't waste my time." The Duke said as he tured around.
.
"Then, could the one and only Duke of this solar empire explain me as how come we are related?" Harris said as he glared at him. His eye colour shifting to a darker shade of pink and orange.
.
"Harris! Are you out of your mind?" The Duke said as he looked at him.
"Me out of my mind? Father you know it more better about who is the one out if his mind." Harris shouted while clenching his fists.
.
"Harris! Mind your language and don't shout! I am your father!" He said while shouting back at Harris who listening to his words clapped his hands with a smirk on his face.
"So, you still remember you are a father...that you are my and sister's father. So, how could you do such a thing!!" Harris said as he threw the glass pot on the ground making it shatter into of pieces.
.
"Harris! Don't cross the line! I am doing all this for your own good!" The Duke shouted back as he slammed his hands on the table with anger and frustration.
"Our own good really? Duke Norin Pers Willson are you really doing all this for our own good? Or are you just trying to satisfy yourself."
.
"Harris!" He said while throwing off the wooden block sat on the table towards his direction but luckily it didn't hit him.
"Why? Is the truth too bitter to swallow? Or are you too ashamed to talk straight?" Harris said as he looked at the wooden block and then back at him his eyes getting redder and watery.
.
"Just leave! Both of us are not in the right mind
to talk." Norin said as he calmed down his himself and tried his best to not provoke the already agitated Harris.
"Its fine, there is no need for us to talk again! I already got my answers and too bad they were as I expected them to be." Harris said as he tubred around and looked at the family picture at the wall once, his eyes which were somehow holding the tears finally fell down his eyes but before norin could notice them he left the room while slamming the door behind him.
.
*sigh* "This boy...why is his temper exactly like mine." Norin said as he walked towards the picture.
"Dear, Rosline....Am I really doing the wrong thing?" He said while gently reaching towards the picture and he was about to touch it when suddenly someone entered the door without knocking.
.
"Your Grace, sorry that I came in without knocking--- umm, am I Intrupting something?" A familiar face with Violet and pinkish hair and a familiar voice said but the only difference was on her clothes which were no longer plane bit extravagant and luxurious.
"No, it's fine. Futhermore, you don't need to ask for permission anyway, so be comfortable." Norin said as he placed a friendly smile on his face while welcoming her with gentleness.
.
"How could I dare to do that, I am just a servant..." That women said as she stood away from him.
"Jessica, you are not a servant, you never were." Norin said while placing his ajnds above hers.
.
"Your Grace...."
"Jessica, I know its late and that things now are very much different from before but trust me I always acknowledged your good thoughts and care for this mansion and for both the kids.
.
I know you have spent more then a decade while looking after the kids and the strong bind you have made with them is soemthing I am not even close with....and no matter what I say rught now they would worthless...because it you who has spent your whole youth for my family.
.
And the only way I think I could repay you is by becoming your strength in your old age..." Norin said as he looked at her eyes.
.
"Your Grace, are you...." Jessica said as she smiled.
"Jessica Lezebel Ford would you marry me?" Noris said as he pulled out a ring out of nowhere and placed it before her.
.
Jessica who was stunned by this, jumped in surprise as tears formed in her eyes.
"Your Grace, this----Am I dreaming?" She asked with tears in her eyes which were wiped away by Noris.
"Jessica, you aren't dreaming. This is all real, though late but still real. So, give me an answer." Noris asked as he placed the ring on her hand.
.
"Your Grace, only a fool would say no to such a heartfelt confession." Jessica said as she put the ring on her finger herself.
"Great! Thank you for accepting my proposal. Jessica you don't know how happy you have made me." Norin said as he smiled.
.
"Your Grace---- it's me who should be thankful to you but---- would the young master and young lady like it?" Jessica asked as she puted a soft look on her face.
"Both of them are smart and have a good relation with you so no wonder they would be fine with it and even if they don't it wouldn't matter." Norin said as his eyes meet with Roslin eyes in the picture and he felt a sudden pain on his heart.
.
"If the Duke says so then there is nothing I could do."
"Yeah, and Jessica I would be annoying our weeding on my upcoming birthday party so remmber to be there along with your family." Norin said as he gave her a invitation card and along with that he gave another card.
.
"Grace this is?"
"You would need dresses and all, won't you? This shop is my regular one, so you can visit it or just go to your liked ones everything is on me." Norin said and Jessica had no end to her happiness but she couldn't show it out so she tried acting modest.
.
"Your Grace, I already have many dresses, I wouldn't need this--'"
" Jessica, you are going to be the next duchess of the only Dukedom of the solar empire. So don't be so modest." Norin said with a serious face and tone.
.
"Well if the Duke says so then...please excuse me.." Jessica said as she exited the room and went straight to her room.
"Hah, I----I am going to be the next duchess finally!!! Finally I won't have to work like a slave! Now my days would be full of flowery road ahead but...why did he suddenly had the thought of marriage? And why me?" Jessica talked with herself as she looked at the ring on her finger which suited her.
.
"No matter what the reason is, the main thing is that I am going to be in my right place. Now all that I should be worried about that brats. I bet they won't let me become the next duchess so easily." Jessica said as she touched her ring and all her worries vanished.
"So what if they try, I can always break them up. Jessica you are going to be a bride, so no stress and put your full focus on yourself. Now what colour of dress should I buy tomorrow?" She said to herself as she started dreaming about everything she could think of.
.
On the other hand, Norin was sitting on his office with a distressed look.
"Why are you sitting like that?" A mystical voice said.
"----Thats because I have no idea about what I am doing---" Noein replied back as he looked at the person before him who was no other then his imaginary image of Roslin.
.
"Is that a new thing?" She joked while giggling.
"Roslin are you seriously laughing right now? Didn't you see how triggered Harris was."
.
"I saw that but what there is nothing that can be done about that, it's on the blood." She said while pouting.
"Yeah, blame everything on me. Luckily Rose is just like you."
"You mean she is understanding."
.
"Yeah, she is understanding so I am more afraid to talk with her because Harris even though with anger would let me know his thoughts but Rose she is a closed book which can't be opened leave the reading part." Norin said as he shook his head.
"Bad person! How could you say such thing about out daughter. So what she is closed book she is strong and I know she would withstand everything." Roslin said as she smiled while looking at norin.
.
"I know afterall she is our daughter, so no doubt she is strong and perfect but I am not a perfect person and my whole life I regretted not being able to give both of them the parents care and love...I hesitated for long...and now I finally go the courage to do something for them and that's is to give them a mother and I don't think anyone else the Jessica could do that.." Norin said as he walked past Roslin.
