Caleb gave Kaisley lots of kisses after he escorted her to the airport. But, their relationship is still unknown. Caleb only wanted to give her the comfort that she needed. He was on his way to the mall and it's like afternoon. Suddenly, there's a lot of notifications on his phone. He stopped walking and checked the link that he was tagged in with Victoria and Stacey. He was confused at the moment as the video played and the face of a woman who was Victoria was blurred.
Then, the shocking news from a few websites.
"What the fuck?" Caleb mumbled. He put his earpiece on as he put the news on play and he walked around the mall while listening.
"An illegitimate child from a noble family is big news all over Great Greivania. It also said that she's a cheater. She cheated her multi-millionaire fiance with a beggar and scammed her family to get money."
"It seemed like they were digging on their grave." He heard enough of it.
He turned it off and sent the link to Kenzo. He didn't wait for his reply as he entered a shop to search for something to buy for him. After he bought an item and picked up Stacey's gift for Kenzo, his phone started ringing. He pressed his earpiece and answered it.
"Cal," Kenzo's voice was deep and Caleb knew who it was already. "I am taking care of it."
"It was all over the news, Kenz," Caleb mumbled. "What if Victoria found out?"
"She won't," Kenzo said. "I already take care of it."
"Uh, what are you planning?" Caleb asked.
"I need you and Stacey."
"Sure, I'll be there." Caleb hung up and quickly left the mall and drove off to the hotel.
It's four in the afternoon and the time that Kenzo received the message from Caleb and his secretary, Victoria was already asleep after their lovemaking. They have a good five hours in the amusement park and Kenzo already set up an everyday flower for his wife. He wanted to give everything to her including a ring. Currently, the ring was personally designed by him using their family gems.
He left the room and went to his office. His secretary was already waiting for him and he waited for Stacey and Caleb and they promised to be early. He already compiled the documents that were needed. Currently, their family was dealing with the media and social media to turn it down. They have loyal hackers that would delete it. They are already hunting the person who posted it. His wife had a big breakdown a while ago and she doesn't want to tell him what happened. He didn't understand at first why she didn't want to tell him. But then, he realized that he's not just Kenzo to her. He's now a Duke and his reputation is one of the most important. However, there's nothing important to him but her.
"Make sure to send it to the Parson." He told Secretary Bryan.
"Yes, your grace." Secretary Bryan left. That's right. Secretary Bryan was once his grandfather's secretary but now, he's working for him.
He exhaled slowly. He's angry but he didn't want to show it to his wife, he'll scare him. He went back to their bedroom as he packed up a few dresses that he chose specifically for her position as a Duchess. She loves vintage, that's why he ordered a lot of it and had their royal tailor-make it for her. He carefully placed it on her luggage bag, arranging it. His phone beeps and he checks it. He quickly went to his office to meet Caleb and Stacey.
"What the hell happened?" Stacey exclaimed.
Kenzo sat down and explained to them that Victoria went out shopping in Shanghira Shopping Center until she bumped into Katarina and her friends.
"I know why she went there." Stacey exhaled. "Victoria didn't want to bump into them. Unfortunately, that bitch is everywhere." Stacey crossed her legs.
"My wife doesn't want to tell me." He mumbled. "But I had enough."
"But wait," Stacey checked her phone. "What's with the illegitimate child thing?"
Kenzo didn't say anything as he glanced at Caleb.
"Kenzo," Stacey frowned. "I had so much stress these past few days. There's nothing I can handle now."
"Victoria isn't Dana's child." Kenzo leaned on his seat.
"And you knew this all along? That's why the bitchy fake mother treated her like a robot or like a thing rather than a person." Stacey started scratching her forefinger to the side of her thumb.
"So, then who are her parents?" She asked.
"I can't tell but she's a Parson."
"Does Victoria know that you know?" Caleb asked. "This is something… really something."
"But to be honest, it's a good thing that Dana isn't her mother. I mean, who would want a real mother like that?" Stacey said bluntly.
"Point taken, but you are way too harsh," Caleb told.
"Kenzo!" Victoria's voice echoed. And from her voice, she sounds panicking that made them anxious.
At the time that Victoria woke up, she quickly searched for Kenzo and noticed two pieces of luggage. She panicked a little and found a few of Kenzo's clothes missing. Is he leaving her? She quickly put her robe on as she rushed out of the robe.
"Kenz?" She called out. "Kenzo!" She felt a rush of panic on her chest, mixed with the pain of the thought that Kenzo found out about her real identity and will leave her. She was near the study room and Kenzo came out.
"Hey, babe, what's going on?" He asked as Victoria quickly hugged him. Her body relaxes. "What's wrong?" He asked softly and he carried her back to their room.
"I thought you left me." She mumbled.
"I won't do that." He smiled at her and kissed her wet cheeks. He gently put her down and wiped her tears. "Babe, I was talking to Caleb and Stacey. They are already here."
Victoria nodded and pulled his shirt.
"What makes you think that I'm going to leave you?"
"What is in the luggage and few of your clothes weren't there?" She asked and stared at it for a while.
"I just prepared the clothes that you would like to wear for our out-of-the-city trip tomorrow. I have to visit a manor and of course, you have to go with me."
She looked back at him and gaped.
"I-I'm sorry."
"Babe," Kenzo sighed and caressed her hair. "Mind telling me now?"
Her lips wobbled and she bit her lips hard. Kenzo frowned and scooped her face so she wouldn't hurt herself.
"Love," He called again.
"I'm sorry, it's your birthday but I am acting like a stranger." She whispered.
"It's not your fault." He kissed her forehead. "I am your husband. You can speak to me."
She nodded at him and forced a smile.
"Is it alright for you if I wasn't a Parson?"
"Yes,"
"Is it alright for you if I was an illegitimate child?"
"Yes," He scooped her face. "I married you because you are Victoria. You are my wife. I don't care about your background or even if you murder a hundred cockroaches…" He smiled at her as she chuckled. "I will do everything for you, my wife. Also," he kissed her lips. "Because you are my Duchess."
"I'm sorry," She mumbled. "I freaked out. You are a Duke now and I don't want to ruin your reputation."
"You didn't. They do." He smirked at her. "I won't let them hurt you, my wife."
"Did you already know?"
"Yes," He nodded at her and kissed her lips. "Babe, Grandpa also knows too."
"H-How?"
Kenzo explained to her that they knew all along that she wasn't Dana's child. Victoria was relieved when he said that Prince Philip accepted her. The King accepted her too as the Duchess. They didn't care about her background and they accepted her for who she was. It's not because she's had the blood of a noble, but she's in the right position and Kenzo chose her and loves her.
"You don't have to worry about anything now."
"Okay," She nodded at him. "I'm sorry that I ruined your day."
"You didn't." He gave her more kisses on the face. "Now, let's wash up and get ready for dinner. I say that we will have casual clothes."
In the Parson's Residence,
One Hour before the Deletion of the News
Bailey got home earlier than he expected and he almost slapped his wife for releasing Victoria. However, it will just get tenser when Katarina arrives, looking happy. However, she received a scolding.
"Did you post this?" Bailey confronted her. "This is you." Bailey showed the photo of her. "Did you say this to your sister?!"
"Oh, please! She's not my sister." Katarina rolled her eyes as Dana frowned at her. Katarina knew that it's a wrong move and so she bowed her head. "I'm sorry, father."
"You shouldn't decide on your own and when posting something like this!" Bailey shouted at her. "Do you know that this would ruin us? That's why we have to hide her!"
"Daddy, I'm sorry." She looked up at him with teary eyes.
"That's it. You will stay in this house for a month and you can't go out to shop. I'll freeze your credit cards!"
Bailey turned back as he dialed someone.
"Make sure that mother didn't see this!" He scolded Dana and then faced his daughter. "Make sure that your grandmother didn't find out about this. Or the two of you are doomed!"
He frowned when no one answered.
"Go to Victoria's house, right now!" He commanded.
This is the first time that Katarina was scolded by him. This is the first time that he grounded Katarina too. They always do it to Victoria and she hates it that she has to be grounded.
At the time that she reached her room, Dana grabbed her with those wide eyes.
"Why do you have to say it in front of everyone? Who are you with?"
"I~~" Katarina remembered Lady Vienna and she bit her lips.
