His Versatile Gorgeous Wife novel Chapter 1752

Mark felt dejected when he saw Linda's indifferent expression.

Does she care so much about the Duke? Her attitude toward me changed when all I did was let a few people go.

“Linda, I have my own reasons for doing this.” Mark was quite heartbroken. He did all that for the sake of their future.

“Your own reasons? What reasons? Don't you know that you're betraying His Grace by doing that?” Linda yelled with a suppressed voice.

“Linda, we already betrayed him the moment we slept together.” Mark looked at her intently.

Linda staggered a few steps back in a daze upon hearing his words.

Have I already betrayed His Grace?

“Linda, I love you, and I cannot live without you. Do you know how heartbroken I am to see you with him?”

Mark stepped forward and held her tightly in his arms, his scorching tears falling on her neck. His Grace clearly doesn't love her. He just uses her as a tool to satisfy his desires. Why can't he allow us to be together?

When Linda felt his hot tears, her heart clenched, and she slowly hugged him back.

It's all my fault. I'm the one who took the first step.

“Mark, I'm sorry. I shouldn't have raised my voice at you. I'm just too worried about you. If the Duke finds out...” said Linda softly, nestling in his arms.

She just did not want Mark to betray the Duke. After all, they were both groomed by the Duke, and they both knew the Duke's way of doing things. If he found out, the consequences would be unimaginable.

Upon listening to her words, Mark let go of her, cupped her face, and kissed her passionately.

He pushed her against the wall and clasped the back of her head. Subsequently, he unbuttoned her shirt and lowered his head to peck at her seductive lips.
