Chapter 451: The Emperorâs Daughter 451
It was after a very long duration that I opened my eyes .
When I opened my eyes, the inside of the carriage was in pitch darkness .
âHold on . This isnât a carriage . â
âHave I already arrived somewhere else and was placed in a room?â
I woke up in a hurry to look around for some kind of clues, but everything was too dark for me to see .
Along with the damp mood around, I groaned in the darkness .
âWhat is this? A kind of bad feeling in me . â
âTodayâs weather is very good, right?â
I suddenly turned my head shocked, at the voice which came from behind . I could see nothing, but right then, I managed to hear something or someone moving around, and something bright like a light hit me . I frowned and closed my eyes at the sudden light .
Dazzling, blinding light .
After a while, once my eyes got accustomed to the light, I managed to see my surroundings .
That was the first time I saw something since I opened my eyes .
A place I had never been to before .
A familiar and straightforward structure that I saw throughout my trip . At that moment, a man approached me and spoke out .
âWho is he, that man?â
I was nervous at the appearance of a man I had never seen before .
Something felt wrong about him and the place .
If I wasnât wrong, the man seemed to be around thirty-nine years old or so . To be honest, it was an appearance that of a handsome young man full of energy; he appeared to be a middle-aged one with a young face, but for some reason, I hated the expression he had .
Once my eyes got used to the light around me, I couldnât take my eyes off the manâs hair anymore . The manâs hair was long enough, reaching his ears; it was dark crimson .
If that were the only thing, I wouldnât have been so concerned, but for some reason, the silvery-white look in his eyes engulfed me .
I was at a loss for words .
The man laughed as if he was making fun of me .
âI am your eldest father . â
When a searing pain spread across my body, a damp voice whispered in the ear .
âAssisi, everyone is doing this to save you . â
Salvation . Loved and robbed when he couldnât even experience them, Assisi believed and followed everything his father would say, the only salvation in his life .
Never loved, even living seemed like a sinâa devil who would lead all his loved ones to their doom .
He was always under the impression that he had to be hurt for his sins, all because he was born with a bruised body .
âSince my dad loves me, he is doing it all for my sake . â
A proof that he was loved .
His mother wouldnât return to the mansion . Mother, Lady Sicelia, a famous name, but Assisi never knew why she wouldnât visit him . When he needed a motherâs affection, he would have a nanny beside him, and he lived in isolation in that lavish mansion where her father cut off all contacts from the outside world .
Everything would have been fine if his mother returned . Everything would be sorted out .
He would only get to see his mother once a month, but Assisi still felt good . It was very rarely that he ever got to meet his mother .
Assisi, just as a little child, yearned for his motherâs affection . However, when he occasionally held his mother, he hated her soft and sweet scent .
Still, he used to let his mother hold him because his momâs hugs were warm .
âYou look very similar to me . â
He liked the subtle smile on her face .
His father was an ever-frowning man with no emotions .
âIt would have been nice if you were a daughter . â
His mother always seemed sad that her child was a son .
âBut you are my only child, so it doesnât matter as long as you grow up well . â
A sweet and calming voice ran in his ears .
âThe Zavaikal house is all yours . â
