Evil Duke, Please Be Gentle!-Chapter 610 No Chance
Len and Luci looked at her as if she had lost her mind.
But before they could ask what she was talking about, the door of the room opened.
They both turned to look at the brazen intruder when their eyes widened and they blinked.
"Len, is it only me?" Luci tugged the shirt of his father when Len shook his head.
"No! I can see the father too." he nodded his head for confirmation when Chris frowned.
"What are both of you doing here?" He walked closer to them and then looked out of the window. ƒ𝑟𝐞𝗲𝘄𝙚𝚋𝑛ｏ𝙫𝒆𝒍.𝒄𝘰𝓂
He closed the windows and covered them with a curtain and then locked the door too.
"How did you even come here?" he asked again as his voice turned colder.
Lia scoffed as if he was looking at a hypocrite.
"See, i have told you to leave before he comes but you did not listen to me." She walked closer and sat on the shoulders of Luci.
It was the first time she had been this friendlier to him. If it would have been any other time, he would have been happier but right now, he was just feeling his nerves turning jittery.
What was Chris doing there? The question was swirling in their mind with some force.
"Did you not hear me? Hmm?" Chris stood in front of them and stared at both of them with stern eyes crossing his hands in front of his chest.
"We have come with our mother. She got injured while riding a wild horse. But what about you? We all thought that you are in the red palace, what are you doing here?" Len asked back in a clam and collected tone looking back at his father whose eyes cracked.
He raised his head and looked at Kath and ran to her as if he was worried about her surprising the kids.
They saw how he checked the temperature and then the hand injury of her with a desperate look.
"She is healing faster!" just like him. He was sure his body was going to be on the bed rest for months even if he was saved but he woke up and he checked his body when she left.
There was not a single clue that he was even hurt. If it was not for the pain he had felt, he would have thought that it was all a bad dream.
"Yes, we fed her the medicine she had told us to before sleeping. She said that she would be fine once she wakes up." Luci repeated the words Lia told him too with an absent look on his face.
"But you did not tell us what you are doing in your mother's room?" even if they were in the same town, they must not be sharing a room.
His father hated his mother!
"I have come here for a personal mission. I met your mother here and decided to share the room for safety reasons since she did not have any knight." he said with a look of righteousness on his face when Lia scoffed.
"Ha! For safety purposes. You were the one injured and she was the one who took care of you. And you called it that you took care of her. You did nothing except blackmail her.`` Her voice was full of hatred and accusations when Luci turned to look at her and then looked at his father with the same accusive eyes.
Len was no different. He did not even need the accusation of Lia as he was already staring at his father as if telling, "i do not believe you."
"But how did you all travel out of the palace without the notice of the knights?" He was not able to ask her trick but he was sure that he could ask them when they both scoffed and looked away.
"Mother is still sickWe are taking care of her. You can book another room in the inn. Since she did not need you to protect her anymore." it was Len who took a step forward and held the hands of Kath who was still unconscious as if he was protecting her when Chris frowned.
"I.."
"Brother is the right father, you have already suffered a lot. Now you should concentrate on your personal mission for which you are here in the first place so that you can return early." he sat on the other side of the bed and stared back at Chris. 𝙛𝔯𝒆e𝔀e𝗯𝓷𝗼𝘃e𝚕.𝒄𝗼𝗺
"......" Chris did not know if his sons were protecting Kath from outer danger but he was sure they were protecting her from him.
His face darkened. He was treated as an outsider who was trying to meddle in.
"You do not need to worry so much. You are kids too. Who will take the responsibility of protecting you. Hmm. you don't even have knights here. What gave you the confidence that you can take care of an injured woman and even protect her?" he asked with a mocking look on his face as he walked towards Luci and held him in his arms and raised him high in the air.
"See, you can not even take care of yourself. You are only going to burden her with your presence. In the end you all need me.'' With a confident look he sat on the place where Luci was sitting and raised a brow as if chalLenging him when he puffed up his cheeks.
"Len! You should take care of your brother. Did you have lunch?" he asked, changing the topic and then pointing at the table.
"I will ask Jamie to clear the table and bring fresh food. What would you like to eat?"
"......" the height of shamelessness!
They felt like their blood was boiling and wanted to teach Chris a lesson but in the end, he was their father.
They could only gulp the anger and nod at him
"Hmm, then press that bell. That boy will come here."
