Today was Lukas' sixth birthday. He should have felt happy. However, Lukas became sullen due to his father's recent oppressive behavior.
The child wasn't even enthusiastic about celebrating his birthday. It was unlike the previous years. Lukas felt like he was transported back to the past, to the time when he first lost his beloved mother, Paula.
"Young Master, aren't you going to change your clothes?" asked a servant politely. The servant had knocked on the door and inquired several times about the same matter. However, the little master seemed reluctant to respond.
After a while, a response could be heard from the room. "Leave! Tell my father I have no intention of appearing at the party. Unless he lets me meet Ava."
Finally, those words escaped young Lukas' mouth. It was an act of rebellion, a way for him to express his frustration towards his father. The young child felt like he had grown up and no longer deserved to be treated like a child.
