CHAPTER 22
KING HENRY POV
I know that cleopard left last night to visit my daughter I don’t know why that boy is so mysterious, all of a sudden he disappears without anyone knowing, I know that boy have secret that I, myself can’t find out, I just shake my head because to those I thought of as I sat in my swivel chair in my office and looked at our family picture.
As I watched my wide face I couldn’t explain the anger that was building up in my chest because of what had happened before, I was hiding more from my children and that’s what I was afraid if they found out.
“Grandpa!” I came back in a trance when suddenly someone shouted at the door of my office so I turned my swivel chair and looked at my grandson who was looking sleepy and rubbing his eyes, I just smiled because of his appearance.
“Yes, Grandson?” I asked him so he walked towards me, he stopped next to me before he looked at me while pouting.
“Grandpa, where’s daddy pards? I didn’t see him beside me when I woke up.” He snout and said and his shoulder fell and he sighed.
“Something come up, and he need to leave for a while to fix that problem that’s why he leave earlier.” I lied to him before I pulled him up and made him sit on my lap.
“Grandpa, I want to see Mommy.” He spoke softly so I messed up his hair.
“If that’s my grandson wants then your wish is granted.” I answer him.
“Really!” He said happily and turned to me so I nodded, because of his joy he hugged me, I really love him he’s my first grandson that’s why I’ll give everything he wants because someday he’ll be the new king in this country. I picked up my cellphone that was on my desk before calling my trusted staff.
“Ready the private plane for my grandson he’s leaving Greece today to surprise his mom in the Philippines.” I said directly on the other line.
“Copy, Boss.” He answered so I dropped the call.
“Grandson, pack your things your going to the Philippines todays.” I told him that’s why he happily got off my lap and ran out the door.
“My grandson really grown well.” I said and shake my head before standing up to leave my office.
ELIAS DUKE POV
As soon as I walked out the door of my grandfather’s room my eyes became cold I just tried to be happy in front of my grandfather so that I could at least make him happy. I was standing at the door of his office earlier, and I could feel his sadness as he looked at the picture hanging in his office.
And I knew daddy pards left last night, I felt his departure beside me during those hours but I just let it go, I knew I was young but I knew what was going on around me. The blood of the Ephraim family runs in my blood so I won’t be surprised why my mind is so matured. I walked into my bedroom with no trace of emotion in my eyes.
When I got to the door of my room I opened it and went to my walking closets to pack. I just took my bag pack and put on my T-shirt and pants as well as my under garments, before taking a box containing money. When the crib is all there I immediately put the bag pack on top of my bed and undressed before going to the bathroom to take a shower. When I entered, I immediately opened the shower so the cold water poured on my body.
Time passed and I finished taking a shower, I came out with a towel wrapped around my bottom. I just wore a simple black T-shirt and black shorts before I wore black socks and white rubber shoes, I didn’t comb anymore because I knew I had been handsome for a long time. I took my bagpack before I went out the door of my room and walked slowly down the very high stairs of the palace and there is still a red carpet, there is an elevator but I feel to show off my elegance and good looks. As I went down I met some maids.
“Waahhh young master is so handsome.”
“He’s Cute.”
“He really have the blood of Ephraim family.”
“He’s like sir Rhys when he walks like a king.”
“I hope I also have a child like him.” One of their comments so I smiled at them.
“Kyaaa he’s really cute!” I was thrilled that they all said so I went downstairs, I didn’t want them to die because of my good looks.
When I got down I saw Grandpa sitting on the living room sofa, he felt like someone was looking at him so he turned to me, I just smiled and approached him.
“My grandson is so handsome.” He compliments me so I’m proud to pose in front of him.
“Of course grandpa, I inherit my handsomeness in you.” I confidently told him.
“Hahaha your really confident my grandson, where did you get that confidence level of yours.” He said jokingly so I sat next to him.
“Grandpa, being confident of my own appearance is really important because I’m truly handsome.” I was still joking with him even though I said there was no connection.
“Fine! I know I can’t defeat you when it comes to your handsomeness, that’s why I need to take you to the airport therefore you can see your mom early.” He said that’s why I stood up before saluting in front of him.
“Copy, King henry.” I said while saluting in front of him so he was surprised.
“What the hell are you doing naughty child?” He asked me in surprise but I just smiled and shook before lowering my little hand that saluting him.
“Nothing, Grandpa lets leave.” I said happily so he stood up while I gave him the way so we could get out of the palace, he looked at me in surprise.
“What are you doing?” He asked me in surprise.
“I’m giving a way to the king of Greece.” I politely answer him.
“Seriously, Elias Duke?” He ask and couldn’t believe.
“Grandpa, I’m giving respect to you okay? Because its my last day here in palace that’s why before i leave atleast I show my respect to you, so let me do this, someday I’ll be the one who will protect you and mom. ” I explained while looking straightly in his eyes. I could see admiration in his eyes, and the happy expression that passed there.
“You are really my grandson.” He proudly told me, that’s why I signaled him to walk, he was shaken his head and he walked like a king, he really is a king. I was just on his side like a bodyguard. When we got out of the main door of the palace, the cars were already paraded outside we were in a very nice car, just as a bodyguard was about to open the car door so that grandpa could get inside I stopped it and I opened it for grandpa.
grandpa came in before I followed while I put my bag pack next to me.
“Grandpa, don’t be sad when I’m already gone here in palace, you can always call me I have my phone.” I told him that’s why he spoke.
“I won’t, as long as you promise me that you will take care of yourself there and your mom.” He answered so I nodded before answering.
“I promise.” I said before raising my hand and making a pinky promise with him, that’s why he also said when he made a pinky promise.
“Always be safe grandson, because you will lead the entire greece when you grew up.” He said.NôvelDrama.Org: text © owner.
“Yes, Grandpa.” My answer. Hours later we arrived at the airport, the bodyguards in turn surrounded the whole area to ensure grandpa’s safety. we entered the airport while grandpa was holding my hand, when we entered the airport stuff bowed at the same time until we passed them to the private plane I was taking, grandpa let go of my hand when we were able to rate the door of the Airplane, he knelt down before he kissed me on the forehead.
“Always be safe grandson.” He reminded me so I nodded and smiled at him.
“Yes grandpa, be safe too.” I answered him so he stood up before messing up my hair.
“Okay, Now go.” He said before he lowered his hand, so I hugged his two legs before walking into the plane, I didn’t even look back at him because I knew he was holding back his tears.
