Chapter 112.2

The representative and the Emperor’s knights retreated as if they were being driven away, and my mother and I, who were silently listening, tried to back away.

However, contrary to the expectation that he would go somewhere else, my father was heading towards us.

“Uh… Mom, let’s go.”

“Huh? Are we leaving now?”

“Yeah, before Dad comes.”

It must have been quite interesting, but my mother, whose eyes were shining brightly, straightened her body, which had been leaning over with a disappointed look.

“It’s nothing. Shall we go now?”

It was then…

“Where are you going?”

Even though he was a bit far away, Dad had already arrived where we were. He even put his hand on my shoulder as I was about to turn around.

“Haha… oh, Dad?”

I turned around awkwardly and smiled so brightly that he couldn’t see my eyes.

“Why are you here?”

“Oh, we were just passing by. We were just walking, right Mom?”

“Yes, we were passing by.”

“But why didn’t you go and just kept watching?”

Dad leaned over and hugged me and made an uncomfortable face.

“That’s… more than that, did Dad know we were here?”

“There’s no way I can’t feel the energy of the two women I love. But now you seem to be good at changing the subject, Bebe.”

“Changing the subject, hehe… we were really just passing by. Now we’re going to go back to our room.”

It felt like I was caught stealing something, so my voice trembled a bit. Maybe he felt it, but he laughed and ruffled my hair.

“I don’t care if you tell me you were watching.”

“Oh, really? Actually, we were walking, but I heard a loud noise so I watched.”

“Bebe is so cute. When I asked you to tell me, you said it right away…”

My dad licked his lips and put his forehead against mine.

‘Oh, was I being silly? I told him right away!’

When I came to my senses belatedly, I shook my head from side to side.

“Not cute! Anyway… you know, Dad, did you know about Mom?”

“Of course, after hearing her name and finding out where she was, I thoroughly investigated.”

“So what kind of person is I?”

Mom, who watched us, asked in a soft and friendly voice.

“A person who grew up being loved. That’s why she knew how to give Bebe infinite love. That’s you, Adele.”

“Ah…”

At my father’s words, my mother’s eyes fluttered slightly, and then her eyes creased into moon crescents.

“That’s a relief. I was worried because I don’t remember.”

“Don’t worry, Adele.”

If he investigated her, he would know what she had been like, but he pretended to be okay and laughed.

I wanted to ask a lot of questions, but I looked at my mom and dad alternately without asking anymore.

We arrived at our room, and my mother, who had been walking around with me all this time, went straight to the chair since she was so tired.

“Mom needs to rest now.”

“Shall we have tea after a long time?”

But I still haven’t found Allen yet, so I got up.

“Um…”

It was after Mom and Dad already sat at the tea table. I couldn’t take my mom out again, who looked like she was having a hard time following me the whole time. Just then, Cecilia came over.

“My Lady, shall we go for a walk so those two can spend some time together?”

“Huh?”

“You haven’t met the Young Master yet, so do you want to play some more?”

“Yes!”

Cecilia was really sharp. How did she know I wanted to leave?

I grabbed Cecilia’s hand before they changed their minds.

“Then, Mom, Dad, I’ll go out with Cecilia.”

“Huh? We won’t eat together?”

“Yes!”

Dad caught me, but I waved goodbye to my mom and Dad and quickly left.

In that way, I took another step towards the path we had not taken before.

“Aren’t your legs sore?”

“No, I’m fine!”

“If your legs hurt, let me know and I can carry you.”

It was nice to be carried, but I shook my head from side to side since it was too childish. In fact, my legs were sore, and my feet burned as if they were on fire.

I was a little tired, so I thought about going back.

A familiar person walked right in front of us.

“It’s Aster!”

There was something we talked about last time, so I thought that we had become a little closer, so I waved my hand as soon as I saw her.
