Chapter 95 Duke....
Aria shivered as Roan said that. She remembered the meeting, and the sweat formed on her forehead.
Roan looked at his brother and said, "well it's your problem, so you decide how far you want to pursue it. If a higher level tries to involve himself, then just call me okk."
Dhruv shook his head. "I am not crazy. I will punish them in my own way."
"Good, that's what I want to hear. How can you beat me if you lose to those low-level goons? And yeah, one more thing."
"What?"
"For how much time do you plan to sit in my arms? You know I am not into those things, right?" Roan said with a disgusting look on his face.
Dhruv jumped away from him. "Idiot, you have a dirty mind."
Roan started shaking his clothes, "Shit, I am tainted this late at night."
"Shut up," Dhruv kicked him.
"Oops," Roan grabbed his leg and then turned to Aria, "Come here beautiful, I need to pure myself."
Roan stood up and pulled Aria in his arm, "Ahh, I am pure once again."
Aria froze in shock with a red face. Dhruv also grabbed Aria from the side. "Idiot. I also started to feel unwell after I hugged you. I also need to pure myself."
Roan backed away with a mocking face and said in a loud voice, "There is the smartass in the house who hugged a man at night. I just need to inform all guards about that."
"Idiot, I will kill you." Dhruv rushed to Roan. "Protect me." Roan started running all over the house while shouting, and Dhruv chased behind him. Aria was stunned with a red face.
…
After half an hour of running, Roan lay down on the couch. Dhruv was beside him, huffing.
"Shit, we are idiots for running around this late at night," Roan said.
"It's all because you are an idiot," Dhruv said from the side.
Roan looked at him and said, "little kid, it's too late for you. Go to your room and sleep, or do you want to hear a lullaby?"
Dhruv got up and dragged his body up a stair. "I do not want to have nightmares after hearing unpleasant sounds."
"Well, suit yourself. I will tell Aria to sing a lullaby for me alone."
Dhruv turned to him in shock. "You cannot do that."
Roan looked at Dhruv, "why?"
"Idiot, you are not kids anymore."
"Who said only kids can have lullabies? ARIA," Roan shouted. ƒ𝚛𝐞𝚎𝑤𝘦𝚋𝓷o𝚟e𝘭.c𝐨𝙢
"Yes, sir." Aria rushed down.
"Can you so sing a lullaby to me?" Roan asked.
"Wait, I also want to hear that." Dhruv walked back and slumped on the sofa beside Roan.
Aria looked at both brothers and then said, "Sir, I do not know any song?"
"Don't worry big sis, you can sing anything. You have such a sweet voice anything works as a lullaby for us."
Aria looked at both brothers and said, "Ok, I will try the song that my mother used to sing."
"Rise..."
She started singing. Both Roan and Dhruv just lay down hearing her song. It was their first time hearing a lullaby from someone.
After some time, Dhruv slept. Roan motioned Aria to stop. He carried Dhruv. "Song was lovely." Roan kissed her on the cheek and walked upstairs with Dhruv in his hand.
Aria smiled at that. She was getting used to living with both brothers. "Hope they sleep well." She walked to her own room.
He placed Dhruv in Dhruv's room and walked back to his room. He was a little bitter to know that Dhruv had to go through all that. "It's all for his good Roan, don't worry," Roan said to himself and lay on his bed.
…
In the police station late at night, Duke was drinking alcohol outside the police station.
He was in a tattered condition, and Stevie was beside him in a somewhat similar condition.
Duke said, "Stevie, you have ruined my life."
Stevie said in annoyance, "Bastard, who told you to show your daughter pic to him?"
"That was that bastard doing." Duke threw the glass bottle at the bloody figure on the side.
Stevie looked at that and asked, "Who is that bastard?"
"That bastard shows my daughter's photo to the devil."
"Wait, is he from the police department?"
Duke started at the unconscious person in front of him. "That's my ex-colleague."
Stevie had his mouth wide open in shock. "Bastard, you will get suspended if my dad found out about that."
"Fck DGP and you. I already send my resignation to him. You asshole ruined my life."
Stevie picked another bottle and started drinking from it, saying nothing.
"I am ruined. My beautiful daughter. You fcker do not even allow me to meet her waaa waaaa," Duke started crying.
Stevie said from the side, "Don't worry. I will help you."
Duke looked at him and started laughing, "Bastard, you are worse than me. Fcker, how did you find the taste of shoes that swallow today? Bitch, did you like that taste?" Duke started cursing him one after another. Stevie did not respond.
He just kept drinking alcohol. After a few mins, Duke calmed down and also drown himself in alcohol.
"Hey Duke, you are not planning to let him walk away, right?" Stevie asked with a vicious smile.
"What can do to him when you guys were protecting him?" Duke mumbled while tears were flowing out of his eyes.
"Hey, I have a plan for our revenge."
Duke ignored him. Stevie continued to speak. "You know why he has protection."
"Abyss guild," Duke mumbled.
"We both know that nobody can protect your daughter, but you could ruin that devil's life."
Duke had blanked eyes. He said, "What is the point of doing anything when I cannot protect my daughter?" 𝑓𝐫𝑒e𝒘𝚎𝘣𝚗𝘰𝘷𝐞𝑙.co𝑚
Duke lay on the ground with a bottle in his hand.
Stevie said, "Pathetic, so you will let him walk out even after all that."
"You are pathetic," Duke shouted.
"I am, but my family is safe, unlike you," Stevie said and also lay on the ground.
Both of them were drinking one bottle after another.
Duke finally asked, "Tell me your plan."
Stevie had a smile on his face, and he started speaking.
