Chapter 829 Are You Willing?
Duke thought about many scenarios, such as Jaina making a fuss with him, such as Jaina being reasonable to him, such as Jaina turning around and immediately bringing Delin over to suppress him...
Duke just never thought that Gianna would shake his heart with her most primitive and most feminine reaction.
He was once deeply impressed by Gianna's reputation as a traitor. He avoided her, feared her like a snake and a scorpion, and was always wary of her. However, Duke, who was preconceived, forgot one very important truth time and time again: a person Nature is important, but experience is the core element that truly shapes a person's personality.
For example, children who have been exposed to domestic violence in childhood or who grew up in single-parent families are prone to distrust of their families.
Another example is that children who have failed in everything they do since childhood will lack confidence when they grow up, let alone leadership skills.
Gianna's life trajectory is very different from history.
Although she is still not favored by her father Daelin in this life, and with Crown Prince Tanred having a son, she will never be able to take the throne of Kul Tiras, but she doesn't have to be like that in her previous life. , flirting with Er Fool and Kai Zi like a social butterfly, all she wants is a future.
Ilucia personally confirmed that Jaina has been very responsible in the past ten years. Not to mention her lover, there is not even a male dog around her, only magic and business accompany her.
"She is still a virgin." Ilucia said seductively at that time.
Duke also smiled bitterly. In this era where people had to get married when they were teenagers, Gianna was undoubtedly forced to become an old girl in the eyes of the world because of her reputation as his fiancée.
Before Duke's time travel, it was not a problem for women in big cities to get married in their thirties, since there were many single men anyway.
In the human circle of Azeroth, this is the old witch level.
Even if Duke knew that Gianna was not interested in this, after all, people's words are scary!
Thinking of this, and looking at the two lines of crystal tears on Jaina's face through the soft light of the magic lamp, Duke suddenly felt guilty.
"I'm sorry, I didn't notice your feelings, it was inappropriate of me. I originally wanted to separate public and private matters."
Lowering her head a little weakly, Jaina looked at her toes, and then quickly raised her head. Duke couldn't understand the complex look in her eyes that was like a whirlpool.
Jaina clenched her fists hard, and you could see that her whole body was tense.
The next moment, what erupted from that sexy little mouth was a roar that was almost heartbreaking.
"I've been trying hard to fall in love with you, Duke! But it's in vain. I have held the title of your fiancée for more than ten years and have been thinking about how to change myself so that I can be more like you. However, your heart has been rejecting me. , you have ruthlessly cut off all possibilities without even giving me a chance to start!"
With tears in her eyes, driving her trembling body, Jaina suddenly took a step forward with her left foot.
"After knowing about you and Miss Alleria and Miss Vereesa, my palace tutor told me - as long as your wife's title belongs to me, I must pretend not to see everything. This is the rule of the nobility, Not to mention other kings, this is what my father did."
Then the right foot!
"Yes! I was not an adult at that time, but from that day on, I told myself that I had to be patient - I made myself a good student. Because that was the only time when you would not be wary of me!"
Then comes the third step!
The distance between Gianna and Duke was less than one meter, and she could clearly see every curve on Duke's face that was filled with shock.
"From my teenage years to adulthood, I have been wondering how to win your favor. Poseidon, I was very frustrated for a long time because my mentor and I began to think that you only liked high elves. And he doesn’t like human women!”
the fourth step!
The distance between the two is already less than half a meter.
"Ten years! I have been waiting for you for ten years! The most golden and beautiful moments of a woman are spent in waiting! In order to avoid the torment in my heart, I dare not read any romance novels! Even those who specialize in frost type Magic! I spent almost all of these ten years in libraries and laboratories!”
Step 5: At this moment, the two of them could almost smell the hot breath coming out of each other's noses.
"But you are back! Suddenly, just when the entire continent needs you the most - the great hero Duke Marcus is back! When you come back, what you accept is Ilusia Barov! Then The expression of a woman in love, no matter how hard she pretends nothing happened, it’s no use, even the doorman can’t fool her! Only then did I realize, oh, it turns out you like human women too.”
"Uh..." Duke's Adam's apple squirmed.
At this time, the tip of Jaina's nose was almost touching Duke's.
It was a pair of infinitely sad blue eyes.
"First Countess Ilucia, then Queen Calia, and now Queen Sylvanas... How can you let me continue to pretend as if nothing has happened!? I can't help it! Please tell me - what am I doing? What did you do to make you so disgusted and rejected!? Even if you lose! Even if you cancel my fiancée status! Can you give me a reason so that I can lose clearly!? "
"Huh..." Duke took out a long breath and gathered his thoughts.
From the perspective of the engagement, even though it was a bad deal, and even though he never admitted the marriage, the accident of Karazhan blowing up, in disguise, caused Jaina to suffer miserably!
Moreover, the women he gets involved with are becoming more and more powerful. Before, he could be regarded as his underground lover, but he could not see it. Later, the queen ran out one after another as if she didn't want the money.
If the engagement is broken off and there is no marriage partner, Jaina, even though she is now the Mage of Huiyue, does not have to worry about being caught by Dai Lin and imprisoned in the palace to die alone, but now that Dalaran is destroyed, It's absolutely understandable that Gianna feels confused and stressed.
"Gianna, no matter what, this is a bad debt. From a noble point of view, this is unsolvable. But I just want to ask you, do you think you will marry me and then give birth to a child to be your heir? Can you feel free to fulfill your dreams?"
"Dream..." Jaina shuddered, then froze.
Duke continued to induce Gianna earnestly: "According to the tradition of the royal family, marrying a powerful person you don't like, just being a tool to carry on the family line, and ending your life without doing anything. Are you willing?"
"I……"
Are you willing?
There is almost no need to ask further, Jaina has already given the answer early——
No! no way! Never give in!
How could I be willing to do so!
