Chapter 955: Raphael Keeps Finding Excuses To Stay (2/2)
"You want to drink tea?" Rowena raised a brow
"Well, it's not important but—"
"I'll do it" Rowena looked at hiet preoccupied with a lot of things in running the house, this is the least that I could do for you"
"Then I' forward to it" Raphael sentle, kind, and thoughtful the Seventh Prince turned out to be, Rowena couldn't help but find herself always on guardShe knew he proved nothing wrong with hi excuses as to why he needed to stay
"Haven't you been with a group of your friends e met?" Rowena said "Are they not upset that you haven't returned yet or did you send theht Raphael entertaining so honestly around them
"They do not need to constantly be around endas and interests—plus they arecare of the out on me"
At least that hat the Seventh Prince hoped So far, there was no incident akin to when the Water and Fire God fought, but he was still a bit doubtful of it not happening again
At least the God of Aviary would act as an interside hi the care of myself?" Rowena raised a brow, a touch offended
"It's not that…" Raphael said "I just like it here?"
The Seventh Prince couldn't tell Rowena that he noticed how her eyebags were getting a little darker or he kne sohts of hers were spent in insomnia and tears
Other ti in bed—how could he leave without any burden in his chest if she was that way?
Rowena let out a sigh "I do not knohat is it that you like it here—there's not much around for someone like you"
"You don't know that" Raphael insisted "I like it here, it's peaceful and quiet, there's not much of a disturbance at all and I appreciate that"
"I see… well, I guess you're free to stay for a coupl
e of days hed inwardly "You are after all the person who saved my life—that's the least I can do for you"
"Thank you, I won't make you uncomfortable, I'll make sure my presence is of help to you So, please do not hesitate to ask ht"
After another couple of weeks with Raphael still at her side when she was clearly fully recovered, it made her choose a different tactic
"Your faently brought it up during their dinner time She poured a nice aromatic blend of tea down a cup and offered it up to hiree?"
