Chapter 846 - Nicolaes Secret Wish (1/2)

To stop Alaric from pressing him to pursue Marie, Nicolae finally decided to tell him about their father.

”If you have that much free time to interfere in my love life, why don't you go after Father? He looks mysterious lately,” Nicolae said. ”Do you know what I am thinking? Our father has finally got a girlfriend! There, you have it!”

Alaric looked pensive at his brother's words. Nicolae was dumbfounded because his brother wasn't at all surprised.

”Hmm ...” Alaric just nodded. ”I know. And that's okay, right? Our father has been alone for more than a hundred years. Isn't it about time for him to find his happiness?”

”You knew?!?” Nicolae's pair of big blue eyes went round in shock. He touched Alaric's shoulders and shook them with great curiosity. ”Who is that woman? Where did they meet?”

Alaric cast his eyes off into the distance, in the direction in which his father was sitting with Altair and Vega. His father's face was very similar to Nicolae's but his personality was truly similar to Alaric's, so you could say, Alaric understood Lauriel like he understood himself.

He was also surprised when Lauriel arrived at their house a few days ago before leaving together to F Island. He immediately recognized that there was something with his father. However, because Lauriel was very similar to him, Alaric understood that his father did not like to share his personal issues with anyone. That was why he did not ask.

In his opinion, when the time was right, Lauriel would share it with him and Nicolae. Until then, he would respect his father's decision and privacy.

”I know the red woven wristband that Father is wearing. That's all I can say,” Alaric said. ”We better let Father get privacy.”

Nicolae became increasingly curious. He was not prepared to hear that his father had found new love after more than a century of mourning the death of their mother. And most importantly ... who was the woman who could melt their father's icy heart?

Because he was very reclusive and rarely present at the clan events, he almost became a legend among women even though they didn't know how he actually looked. They only knew Lauriel was very impressive and he had a pair of brilliant blue-green eyes. It would be easy to recognize him when he came.

”You know who that person is? But you don't want to tell me ...?” Nicolae asked again in a disappointed tone. He felt excluded because his brother was hiding something.

”I already told you, this is not my place to talk about Father's personal business. Let's hope our father can be happy,” Alaric shook his head slowly. He then looked at Nicolae fixedly. ”I also want you to be happy. You should settle your business with Marie.”

Nicolae finally sighed and nodded. ”I know...”

He couldn't wait to meet Marie and confirm his feelings. For some reason, since Altaïr showed him the girl's photo, he kept thinking about Marie.

What was the girl doing now?

”I have something to do. You guys can continue sunbathing here ...” he said as he stood up.

He rushed to his room and took his tablet. He went to the balcony and sat on a lounger, watching the open sea and his family members who were busy relaxing while sunbathing and chatting.

Nicolae opened the internet and tried to find all the information about Marie. After ten minutes, he could only find a little data about Marie. As the girl said, she had a sad childhood. Since she was 10 years old, her mother had been in and out of the hospital and she lived a lot with Sanna's family. He could see that Sanna was Marie's only friend.
