Chapter 228: The Grand Wedding[V]
While chaos started reigning in the entire Greymore estate and people started running around led by guards to evacuate or stray further, at the farthest corner of the estate, sat a pair of old men tagging along a white hair beautiful lovely young woman.
The woman taking a sip of mocktail stared at the wrinkled man with a smile.
The man, coughing with an embarrassed expression, moved his hands, and sneaking hands under the table held the woman's delicate hand with a shy expression.
Giving an amused smile, she spoke softly "What? Can't bear to part with me even for a little and now that I am here, you are holding my hands as if I am going to disappear out of nowhere."
"Hmmm! You better know that."The man snorted.
"And it's still unbelievable that you led me here while saying that you can't see his future. And it's even unbelievable that you stepped out from seclusion."The wrinkled man's face was etched with confusion.
"What do you mean by unbelievable?"The woman chided with a sharp glare and spoke faint of "I haven't seen my grandson for long. I am worried about him."
"You are worried about him.Out of everyone in your family, you are worried about Leon ?"The man screamed aloud.
"Why don't you think about me instead of him."
Due to chaos, it was a good thing that they had not seen the two otherwise if anyone had seen an old man with that beautiful woman, one couldn't help but comment.
Grandpa, you got some old rizz
"Why do I need to care about you? Is there anyone here that can threaten you to accept that old coot?''The woman teased and then sighed.
"I wonder how he is doing right now? I am really worried.''
The man's expression contorted upon hearing this.
Arthur killed the monster and protected the maiden whom he later found out that she was a member of the Spirit Clan.
She was on a hunt for an important thing but suddenly a rupture in space appeared due to a spatial distortion that swallowed her wholly and she ended up getting dropped here.
Being in an unknown place, Arthur acted as her guide and he couldn't deny that he was smitten by her beauty and lovely coldness.
The two had their fair share of journeys and after searching all around, they finally found a way back but Lia having fallen for Arthur asked him to accompany her but he strictly refused as he held an important position and chaos would be ensured if he just left.
Moreover, he can't abandon his home for now as there is no one to take care of Woods after him.
He thought that they would be parted but Lia's decision shook her. Instead of going back, she decided to join him and wait until he prepared to go back.
Now because of her long span and superior cultivation, while she still looks young, he looks more at her father than her husband even though she is 20 years older than him.
"Why are you so obsessed with your looks? When you break through to a higher realm, will you restore your youth?"
I hope so."Arthur gave a bitter smile and expressed his joy, "With this over, our family will be united finally for real. It's still a blessing that Irina survived all those memory and mind manipulations without getting any injury."
Lia didn't mutter but she nodded.
Their family had gone through a rough patch. To avoid the fate of annihilation, both she and Leon had taken drastic measures.
A cruel fate that adheres to those who threaten the stability of peace.Someone who can threaten the very law and order that governs the entire world without which everything would fall apart and plunge into eternal darkness.
His grandson was born with the fate of a black lonely star which signifies that whenever he tried to form a relationship the world would tear and separate them apart.
Initially, it would be a minor separation but if they resisted strongly, the grasp of fate would be stronger until it tore away everyone from Leon, and finally, fate may resort to killing people close to Leon.
