Not long after, Vasili felt warm energy from the front, indicating that the red queen was close. Vasili decided to stop walking so as not to hurt the red queen unconsciously.
The elements in Katalina and himself were contradictory and would harm each other if they were both within a hundred meters radius. Katalina still hasn't found her main energy source, so Vasili's cold energy was much stronger than that of the girl.
If he continued forward, he feared, the red queen would fall ill again, and her internal energy would be injured.
Vasili also sensed that many people had come out of the villa and ran towards them. Looks like… it's time he had to part with his little wife. It was time for him to return little Chleo to her parents.
Even so, Vasili didn't tell Chleo and let the girl talk enthusiastically. His eyes fixed on the child without glancing at the group of people who were getting closer to them as he wanted to see his wife a little bit longer.
"CHLEO!!"
Chleo gasped when she heard someone called her name out loud. When she saw the faces of her parents and uncle, Chleo released her grip from the Ice Prince and ran towards her parents.
"MOMMY! DADDY!" she exclaimed with great joy. Chleo felt very relieved to be back home to meet her family again.
Chleo instantly felt safe as soon as her father hugged her and carried her as if she weighed nothing. She didn't like to be carried, but she desired to be held by her father this time.
Ah, her father's lemonade scent was so refreshing. She felt safe, and she felt protected. Chleo shoved her head into the crook of her father's neck. The smell of the house. Now she believed she had come home.
"Chleo, can you tell us what happened? How did you get here?" uncle Stanley asked her with a puzzled gaze.
"That person saved me." Chleo pointed at Vasili, who gave her a gentle smile.
"Chleo, did you hit your head?" strangely, why did her father even ask like this?
"I'm fine. That guy helped me and took me to a fun place. Do you know where I was? At the ocean! We played with the dolphins and rode a whale! Anyway, I was having fun yesterday!"
Chleo tilted her head in amazement when she realized that everyone looked at her with strange looks that made her feel uncomfortable.
Why are they all looking at her like she's a crazy kid? Why didn't they glance at their savior? Can't they see her Ice Prince?
They didn't even seem to believe anything she said!
Chleo glanced at Vasili with a questioning look. Why couldn't everyone other than her see Vasili? The man put his index finger to his lips as her answer. Does it mean... her Ice Prince wants to keep their meeting a secret?
Since then, Chleo decided not to talk about her experience anymore. She didn't want her parents to worry about her mental health and take her to a psychiatrist or whatever when she was okay.
Chleo was sure that no one could see her Ice Prince but herself. So when Uncle Kinsey's lover spoke to her and asked about her savior, she was shocked.
"So, who is that person?" inquired Katalina with great interest.
"What person?"
"The guy with platinum hair and pale white skin. Didn't you guys come here together?"
"You can see him? How? Why can't the others?"
Katie smiled faintly at her question. "Well, I have no answer to that. That's why I'm inquisitive. Who is that person? What happened to you yesterday?"
Chleo was a cheerful child and loved to tell stories the most. She had been aching to share all her exciting experiences with someone but had to restrain herself because no one could see her Ice Prince.
Since Katalina could also see her Ice Prince and was interested in hearing her exciting story with the savior, Chleo told them all without missing a single one.
"He seems to be a good person."
"He is indeed a good person and also amazing. I want to see him again."
Chleo enjoyed the gentle caress of her hair. Aunt Katie smiled warmly at her, but why did she look sad?
"Don't expect it too much. There is a chance he wouldn't remember you after this based on my experience. So it's best to forget about him."
Chleo nodded in agreement with the woman's suggestion but, in her heart decided, she would not forget that person. How could she possibly forget such a special moment with her Ice Prince?
She was sure she would not forget it for the rest of her life!
The Regnz family was still enjoying their vacation for the next few days until her mother's cousin urged Vincent to go home, and they all pack up to head back to the United States.
Chleo was a bit disappointed because she still wanted to stay longer in Germany, and perhaps her Ice Prince might come to see her again. She felt sure that her Ice Prince also lived in Germany.
Regrettably, she was just a child who still relies on her parents. She didn't want to be separated from her parents. So when her parents decided to return to America, Chleo followed them.
'I hope we will meet again soon,' prayed Chleo while smiling excitedly.
