The Hidden Duke Heir Chap 34
"How are you, Erick? Did you tell me everything in person?" Charles asked Erick, who was lying on the bed in the hospital room. Today Charles took the time to visit Erick. It had been a week since the shooting incident, and Erick's condition was getting better. Although his condition was critical during surgery to remove the bullet in his head, he was lucky to survive. "Didn't I explain everything in that video? What else do you want to know?" Erick replied in a whispered voice. His strength still hadn't returned ultimately, and he could only lie on his bed as he was not allowed to do strenuous activities by the doctor. "I think there are many things you haven't told me, Erick. You only told me the gist of my kidnapped, but you didn't tell me the reason why Dominic do that. Also, I wonder why you didn't tell his father the reason for Deon's death." Erick looked at Charles seriously, then exhaled a few times to calm his racing heart. Dominic's attempted murder had traumatized him d
The Hidden Duke Heir Chap 35
Charles was in a very difficult position. He didn't know what to say. The friendship that had been established between him and Daniel was not just a day or two but years. That's why he couldn't believe his best friend betrayed him. "What should I do?" Charles did not leave the room. He sat on the bed to calm down. If he met Daniel now, he might be unable to control himself."I don't understand. Why is it that after I became the main heir of the Duke family, so many people tried to kill me? If it was someone else, I wouldn't be so hurt, but why would Daniel do the same? Why would he do that?" While busy with his thoughts, Charles was startled by a knock on his bedroom door. "Charl, there's Rose outside. She said she had something very important to say." Daniel said as he opened the door. "Oh, okay. I'll be right out." Charles got up from the bed, he immediately approached Daniel, who was still waiting for him to come out of the room. "What important information does Rose have to
The Hidden Duke Heir Chap 36
Inside the house, Rose went straight to her room. She knew that someone who deliberately entered and rummaged through her house must be looking for something, and her room was the most targeted place. "Rose, what's wrong? Why is your house so messy?" "It looks like they want to take the evidence, Mr. Charles." Rose checked the items in her room. Things were no longer where they were. The mattress was a mess, some books fell to the floor, and even the computer was on. Rose quickly checked her computer, from important files to videos the hacker had sent about Daniel. "Damn! They've found the evidence. How is this?" Rose panicked. She bit her nails as an outlet. "Rose, what's wrong? Who has done this to you?" Charles asked in a worried tone. "This is what I was afraid of, Mr. Charles. There is someone who deliberately came here to find information about you." Rose resigned, and she immediately invited Charles to leave her house. "Let's clean up your house first. After that, we'll

Isabella's assignment starts today. It just so happened that she had the same class as Charles. So, she took advantage of that to approach her ex-boyfriend. She waited for Charles in the car park. She will not waste time because a few minutes are too precious. "Charl!" Isabella shouted. She approached Charles, who had just gotten out of his car. Only a few steps Isabella approached, but she was forced to stop when she saw a woman exit the other car door. "Who is she? I seem to have seen her before." Isabella thought. She tried to remember the figure walking beside Charles, but unfortunately, she didn't remember anything. She felt like she had met that woman, but where? Seeing Charles and the woman walking away from her, Isabella immediately ran to stop them. "Charl! Wait for me!" Isabella shouted, her pace quickened not to lose track of her ex-boyfriend. Charles and the woman kept walking casually as if they didn't hear Isabella's shout. It seemed like they were deliberate bec
The Hidden Duke Heir Chap 38
Charles did not keep his word. He preferred to continue with his plan without telling his Grandfather. He would still be rude but slowly soften his attitude so that Isabella would not suspect that he wanted to find information about Dominic through her. Rose, who knew about it, couldn't do anything. She could only monitor it. Moreover, she was asked to look from afar so that Isabella would not look for more problems because she was disturbed by their closeness."Charl, do you want to go to the cafeteria?" Isabella again launched her trick. She realized that Charles could not be approached immediately, so she approached him slowly so his heart would melt. Charles, who had thought about the positives and negatives, began to carry out his plan. "Hmm." That was all that came out of his lips. "Let's go." Charles neither refused nor nodded. He let Isabella follow him. He was sure his ex-girlfriend was happy because he did not argue or reject her. This time, he would play the role of de

"Who are you? I don't know you. What are you here for?" Charles stood up and looked sharply at the man who had just entered his room without his permission. "Don't you know me, Charles?" The man took off his mask. Yes, a mask. It wasn't a cloth covering half his face or a mask like a thief, but a mask that could disguise his identity. "Damian?" Seeing that Damian was standing in front of him, Charles immediately asked his secretary to leave as he knew he was about to have a serious conversation with him. "Sit down, Damian. Tell me what you are here to see me for." Charles asked, looking at Damian's face, which looked older than his age. The problems were stressing Damian out and affecting his health. His body looked even thinner than the last time he saw him. "I wanted to ask you a question." Damian looked back at Charles."What?" "Is it true that Erick is still alive?" Charles' eyes widened for a few seconds when he heard that question. "Why are you asking me that? Isn't Eric
The Hidden Duke Heir Chap 40
There were two things Charles had to do today. The first is to meet Erick and ask for an explanation as to why he contacted Damian without asking permission first. And the second was to meet Daniel and apologize to him. Although he still had to be careful, he couldn't avoid his best friend.As for his dealings with Dominic, he would leave everything to Damian and Rose. He had asked his bodyguard to find information about Dominic, his origins, and some other information that could put together a puzzle of the cause of the grudge that the man held. Apart from hoping for Rose and Damian, he will keep trying to get close to Isabella. Although it had a higher risk than just waiting for information from those two people, he would still do it because he could not stand idly by while his life was threatened. "So, Erick, is there anything you want to tell me?" Charles looked at Erick, who was already sitting on the bed quietly. Erick's body condition seemed to have improved compared to when
The Hidden Duke Heir Chap 41 (The Facts)
"How was it? Did you manage to get close to Charles?" Dominic asked. His face did not look directly at the interlocutor because he was staring at the street scene in front of his company through the window from the 20th floor. Even without looking directly, Dominic could feel the nervousness and worry felt by the other person. "Are you deaf?" Dominic repeated his question. "I'm sorry, Babe. So far, I have not been able to get close to Charles because he keeps his distance from me. He does not even hesitate to use harsh words." Isabella explained in detail what she had done and what kind of response she had received. "Do you think such old-fashioned ways work to attract someone's attention? Especially an ex-girlfriend who has experienced betrayal." Dominic turned around. His expression was stiff. There wasn't the slightest hint of a smile on his face as he used to do daily to cover up his cruel nature. "I don't know what to do. Based on my experience when dating Charles, he is a ma
