Chapter 354: Leo’s sealed memories part 9 (1/2)

Proofreader: M_W Miss Fierce

Days and months have passed like normal. In a blink of an eye, Leo and Elizabeth got closer and closer until eventually they finally decided to accept each other's presence together.

Their predestined marriage 13 years later was still kept as a secret, with only a few people knowing about it. Aside from the higher-ups of the Snow Noble Household and Elizabeth's men, only Reinhart, Patriarch Red Heart, Lady Rose Heart, and Butler Xiao knew about such a thing.

But unfortunately, that happy moment seems to be close to over now...

”Father, please don't go!” Leo tearfully hugged his father's waist, not intending of letting him go.

Seeing this, Patriarch Red Heart smiled before bending down his knees to reach the same height as his son Leo. He patted Leo's head a few times before saying, ”What your father and mother are doing is only for your own good. How about this, I'll make it up to you by bringing you different things that I know you would like? I know you like books right, especially those books written by the Mage Kaiser? I'll bring you a lot of his books! Oh, I'll also bring you different toys to play with, or even different kinds of food, and maybe stuffs related to Mag... I mean many more other stuff!”

Hearing Patriarch Red Heart's words, Leo finally decided to let go. He wiped his tears off from his eyes as he asked, ”Promise?”

”Promise!” Patriarch Red Heart replied with a smile on his face. He then rubbed Leo's hair one more time before standing up and looking at his older son Reinhart right after, and saying, ”You take care of your younger brother just like we promised, okay?”

”Don't worry, I will!” Reinhart nodded his head. Truthfully speaking, even if his father didn't say those words, he would definitely still do that. What no one knows is, the tribe of that Forest Rat King that had attacked his younger brother Leo before was already eliminated by him, with all of their bodies turned into dust and becoming fertilizers under their new small hut.

”Then I'll go now!” Patriarch Red Heart said before getting inside the carriage first.

Next was Leo and Reinhart's mother, Lady Rose Heart, a very beautiful and kind woman that even the King of Silver Kingdom, King Erskine, wanted to court prior to her becoming Patriarch Red Heart's wife. Her pupils were similar to Leo's and Reinhart's in color and form, specifically looking a bit cold, similar to the look of her face. Despite being cold looking though, Rose was actually warm-hearted.

Unlike Patriarch Red Heart, Rose picked up Leo from the ground up before saying, ”You'll still be my good boy when I returned, right?”

”Yes!” Leo replied with a bright smile on his face. A striking contrast to how his reaction was with his father. There was no other reason aside from that he is closer to his mother compared to his father.

Rose nodded her head before taking a glimpse at the little Elizabeth at the side and saying, ”You also take good care of your little fiancée, okay?”

”Of course, I would! No one would be able to harm her as long as I'm by her side!” Leo proclaimed proudly.

”And remember what I said before? No other wom-”

”No other woman aside from Elizabeth, because having a lot of women means trouble. Women are the epitome of trouble, so it's much better to only have one, rather than having many.” Leo interrupted his mother's words to finish her words instead.

Hearing Leo's words, Rose can't help pinching his cheeks and saying, ”That's my boy!”

Rose then slowly put down Leo on the ground and soon after turning to look at her older son Reinhart, and saying, ”Just be sure not to let me see a single scar or anything of the likes to Leo when I come back!”

Unlike Rose's treatment of Leo, she was much tougher and stricter to Reinhart. This was because she doesn't want to see Reinhart thinking of doing something bad to Leo like those children of other Noble Households, which then became one of the reasons why Reinhart became so overprotective of Leo because he doesn't want to see his mother being angry at him. Rose really hated families treating each other like enemies, that's why she was doing this.

”That would be impossible... He is receiving training every day, so it's hard to-” Reinhart wanted to explain that it was impossible to avoid that, but was immediately interrupted by Rose.

”That's your problem as his older brother!” Rose said coldly before turning around and getting inside the carriage.
