The President’s Five Children

Indeed.

Cedron’s expression was grave and stony as he said he would take Mordecai home.

There was no sign of half happiness to be seen.

Wasn’t that what they had come here for?

To this, Cedron gave the answer, “This thing went surprisingly well, so well that I feel something is wrong and have begun to feel afraid.”

Even, he has begun to think whether he can really take Mordecai away tomorrow or not.

Hearing this, Yembi realized this as well.

But she’s still willing to look on the bright side.

Telling Cedron, “Maybe it’s true that we’re overthinking it, just as we’re starting to dig into Countess’s secrets, and she’s probably afraid that we’ll find out more, so she’ll just hurry up and hand over Mordecai and tell us to get out of here.”

It was normal to throw away the one that was less important to you to preserve the secret that was important to you, wasn’t it?This text is property of Nô/velD/rama.Org.

But Cedron still shook his head, “That’s even stranger, if she knows we’re probing the secret now, why would she let us leave and even give us back the only leverage she could blackmail us with?”

Without Mordecai in their hands, they had no fear of Countess and were perfectly capable of stirring her up!

This …

Yembi realizes this as well and doesn’t know how to explain it any better.

“Let’s take one step at a time and see if we can take Mordecai tomorrow first.” Cedron said.

Yembi nodded her head in a hmmm with mixed emotions.

But after hearing so much from Cedron just now, she was now starting to wonder if it was really possible to take Mordecai.

–

With much trepidation, the time finally came for the next day.

At breakfast, Mordecai appeared in plain sight.

He was dragged out by Countess, changed into an extremely gorgeous outfit, and wore a lot of jewelry on his body, so the crowd didn’t recognize him at first glance.

Waiting to react, Bruno’s attitude was extraordinarily excited, “Mordecai, come over here!”

Mordecai stood still, with a few moments of hesitation in his eyes.

Countess then laughed and touched Mordecai’s head, “What are you waiting for, don’t you recognize him?”

“Yes I do, that’s my brother-in-law.” Mordecai replied.

“Since you know him, then of course you should go over and say hello.” Countess continued.

Only then did Mordecai let go of his hand and ran over to Bruno, tilting his head up and milking his voice as usual, “Brother-in-law, long time no see!”

Qin almost couldn’t help but burst into tears.

He wanted to go forward and hug Mordecai and make out with him.

But before his hand could touch it, Mordecai took a step back and avoided Bruno’s contact.

“Mordecai, come to me.” Cedron spoke up.

Mordecai immediately ran to Cedron again.

He didn’t resist Cedron’s touch at all.

Allowing Cedron to examine his body, he answered every question carefully and patiently.

After a long time, Cedron finally came to a conclusion.

Mordecai was fine!

Even that impact injury on his head had healed to a certain extent.

“Don’t worry, your mommy knows a very good scar specialist, it won’t leave you with a scar on your head, when we get back to Willisto, daddy will take you to see this specialist.” Cedron assured.

Mordecai, however, jerked her hand back, her eyes full of resistance, “I don’t, I don’t want to go back, I want to stay here!”
