Arielle Moore and Vinson Nightshire

Chapter 1599 Fired At

It was nearly midnight.

He had never imagined that such an elegant and aloof woman would let herself loose like that.

Nor had he imagined that the woman he loved was already taken by the Duke. It was no wonder she had reacted the way she did when he kissed her.

Mark was so brokenhearted that he left the place in despair, not willing to watch the scene anymore.

Linda's actions became bolder and the man became more and more aroused. He carried Linda and placed her on the sofa. As Linda stared at his sexy lips, she recalled the pleasure of kissing. She then hugged his neck before pulling his face downward and planting her red lips on his.

The Duke had not expected her to be so bold. He shook off her hands, stood up angrily, and looked down at her before uttering in disgust, "Get out!"

Linda did not expect him to be so annoyed over a mere kiss. Immediately, she knelt down before him. "Please don't send me away."

For the sake of the five years she had served him, he relented. His tone was filled with anger as he said, "Leave for Turlen tomorrow and do not return without my orders."

Linda knew that he would not change his mind, so she put on her clothes and left.

After reaching the ground floor, Mark did not leave immediately. He sat in his car, puffing on one cigarette after another.

Thinking of the woman he loved in the arms of another man, he could not calm down. Just as he was about to open the car door and go out for a breath of air, he saw Linda coming out looking forlorn.

Isn't she...

Why is she coming out with such an expression on her face?

For a moment, Mark's heart ached for her. Instantly, he got down from his car and went toward her.

Seeing Mark, Linda looked away uncomfortably. "Why are you here?"

Then, a thought seem to flash through her mind as she looked at him. "You know everything?"

Seeing how he remained silent, she took it as acquiescence.

"Leave. I want to be alone."

This was not a safe place for a woman to be alone at this time of the night. As such, Mark opened the car door and forced her inside.

Just when he was about to release her from his hold, however, Linda put her arms around his neck suddenly. "Kiss me."

She had just been rejected by the man she loved and she knew then that she had lost any chance she had with the Duke. So, she decided to settle for a replacement.

Mark looked at her and did not budge. In the end, it was Linda who pulled his head toward herself and raised her lips to kiss him. As she was the woman he wanted and loved, he could not hold back anymore. Mark grasped her head and kissed her. From time to time, the two of them would break off to breathe.

Mark closed the car door and lowered the seat. Then, he placed himself on top of Linda's body.

In Turlen, Aaron had just returned from a visit to the queen mother.

He did not expect that she was planning of abolishing his father and support him as the new king. Although he knew that he was the future king, he had not expected that he would succeed his father in this way.

Unable to accept her plan, he immediately rejected the queen mother's proposal.

Although his father never loved him, Dylan had never denied him his needs. As such, there was no way Aaron would take away the king's position in this manner.

How could Grandma treat Father this way?

Feeling depressed, Aaron opened the wine cabinet, took out a few bottles of wine, and drank alone.

Suddenly, his phone lit up, and a message came into view.

It read: The mother of the Chairman of Nightshire Group, Mr. Nightshire, was kidnapped and shot.

He tapped on the message to follow the link. Soon, he stood up abruptly.
