Meanwhile In Hertz Residence~
"Duchess, please get a hold of yourself, His grace must be coming back with the young master soon!!"
"DUCHESS!!!"
The maids kept calling out for Sierra as she ran out from her room while wrapping a shawl on her body to find her son.
Her son had finally come home after so many years, then why would he leave in the middle of the night for no reason?
Someone must have bullied him behind her back!
Thus, as soon as she got conscious she was determined to go out and demolish that damn magic tower.
Her white nightgown swayed as she walked towards the main gate with her light coral eyes beaming with tears.
Her heart had almost stopped beating when she found the room empty and there was no sign of her son.
At the same time, even the crown princess went missing!
And now those maids want her to calm down?!
How can she calm down and wait for her husband while doing nothing?!
Her physical condition may be weak now but she was once the lady who could even fight a man with swords!
"PREPARE THE CARRIAGE! I WILL GO AND MEET THE PEOPLE FROM MAGIC TOWER TO FIND THE YOUNG MASTER AND THE PRINCESS!!"
Sierra commanded the knights with a furious voice as she stepped out from the mansion.
But right at that moment, her light coral hair swayed as Kieran's horse suddenly stopped before her fragile body.
Instantly, the fierce look on Sierra's eyes changed into gentleness as her gaze falls on the little guy clinging on her husband's body.
"NOAH!!"
Sierra called out for Noah, whose eyes were a little red as he held back crying all the way.
How could a descendant of the great ancient dragons, a mortal man like him suffer from such embarrassment?
But as soon as his gray eyes meet Sierra's light coral eyes filled with concern, he bite his lips painfully before he finally broke into tears all of a sudden.
Everyone around them was shocked, especially Kieran who was still holding Noah on his arms.
"WHAT HAPPENED BABY?!"
Sierra asked in panic before reaching out her hands to take Noah from Kieran, while Kieran was hesitating as his son's weight could be too much for her fragile body can handle.
And even Noah, who rarely let someone get close to him couldn't help but extend his tiny hands towards Sierra as she reached out for him.
Actually he knew he wasn't crying just because of his embarrassment.
The way this lady before him looked at him with concern and reached out for him, he couldn't help but feel warm.
No one has ever cared for him like this.
Most of the parents he got was either cruel or he doesn't even saw their faces as they abandoned him. Even if someone cared, once he distanced himself and they gave birth to another child, they stopped caring for him.
But he feels a special attachment towards Sierra.
No matter how many time he tries to push her away, she never gives up.
She even maintains a distance, fearing he might be uncomfortable if she gets too close with him and upsets him.
While he was clinging to his father, he felt an attachment which he didn't wanted to feel.
He has been their son for two times already and in this third time, he really seems to develop the feeling which he doesn't want.
He doesn't want to give in to this familial warmth and crave for more.
In the end, they will all live him alone and reborn, while he will carry the burden of their memories.
But right now, Noah just wants to hug her.
Cry out the loneliness he has always felt after each of his friends died and he had live with their memories for centuries.
Today, he felt alive.
Being with everyone there and the way Kieran hugged him, then Sierra's concerned eyes are making him crave for more even though he knows that he shouldn't be greedy for more.
Because this will only make him hurt.
"What happen baby?"
Sierra asked in a soft voice as she took Noah in her arms and Noah buried his head in her chest as his hands were wrapped around her neck.
"Baby? Tell mum, who bullied you?"
Sierra asked as she threw a glare at Kieran, who looked confused because of his wife's sudden fierce look at him.
Her first suspicion was her own husband because she has never seen this two getting along nicely.
Both of them always argue and bicker with each other, so it must be her husband who has annoyed her son again!
Without realizing, Sierra's hold on Noah becomes tighter and a soft whimper lefts from his mouth and she becomes shock.
"WHAT HAPPEN BABY? DID YOUR FATHER BEAT YOU?!"
"…"
Kieran immediately become speechless as how could she accuse him like this without even any evidence?
And why is this little brat denying it?
"…my butt hurt."
"It hurts a lot…sob… he wasn't gentle at all!"
"…"
Kieran again becomes speechless as his son's words were really misleading!
He understood that what his son meant was he didn't carried him on his arms gently but from Sierra and others viewpoint, it sounded like he beat him up harshly!
'Damn this little brat! How dare of him to set me up like this?!'
How can his own son set him up like this?!
Kieran gritted his teeth as he clenched his fist tightly before he took a step towards her to prove his innocence.
"Wait- Let me explain Sia…"
But he immediately shut his mouth as Sierra glared at him before taking steps towards the mansion with a cold aura surrounding her body.
"You have got some nerves, Kieran De George Hertz!"
"Dare to spank my son? I will deal with you later!"
Kieran gulped down his saliva to dry his throat as he really knew that his wife believed that damn brat more than him.
Sigh… but can he do? That damn brat is his son and only ten years old.
So he decided to suffer this time until he found the little guy on his wife's embrace to slowly raise his head before taking out his red tongue to mock his father playfully.
'Finally I got my revenge on you for rebuking me, Old man!'
