Chapter 659 Visiting in-laws (3)

After leaving the wyverns by the gate, we headed to the duke's manor together.

The trip itself was quite silent for me and the duke as we just watched Veronica talking with her mother.

From time to time, I would chime in since she called on me for some things, but it was mainly Veronica who spoke.

I was worried that the ducal couple would be angry because some of the stories that she told were considered quite dangerous for her, but it didn't seem like that. It seemed like they were already used to her acting up like this, so they just listened with smiles on their faces.

When we arrived at the manor, the four of us moved at a casual pace to the living room.

There was already tea and desserts set up for us.

So the four of us sat down on the couches that were in the center of the living room.

On one couch was the duke and duchess, on the other couch was me and Veronica.

Veronica didn't seem like she had any worries at all as she immediately started drinking the tea and having the snacks. There was certainly no problem with her appetite even though there was a somewhat tense atmosphere in the air.

She seemed like she wasn't bothered at all.

The duke and duchess on the other hand were much more calm and reserved as they had some tea and desserts, but they were also looking at me the whole time.

It was awkward for me to reach out for the tea and desserts like this, so I just awkwardly sat there.

This persisted for a bit before Veronica looked up at me and said, "What are you doing? Come and have some of this with me. There's no need to hold back, we're all family here." Visit no(v)eLb(i)n.com for the best novel reading experience

To my surprise, the duke and duchess both nodded in agreement with Veronica.

With how they were acting, I had thought that they had brought me here to judge me.

No, if the duke had this kind of bitter smile on his face, it must mean that there was more to this story that I didn't know.

It seemed that I had quite the future ahead of me...

Still, I had chosen to be with her, so it wasn't as if I could back down now.

After listening to her parents complain about her for a bit, Veronica finally said, "Are you still my parents or not? Shouldn't you be describing the good things about me instead of complaining about me?"

I said with a faint smile, "They're only saying these things because they care about you. You should be happy that they care so much about you that they are complaining like this."

Veronica looked back at me with pouted lips like a child as she said, "But I don't want them telling you all the bad things about me."

I patted her on the head as I said, "I already said that I would accept all the good and bad things about you. You don't need to worry about a thing."

She looked at me with a touched look for a bit before suddenly coming forward to hug me.

I just hugged her too and patted her on the back.

The duke and duchess looked at each other with smiles on their faces before the duke said, "It seems that now that she has someone she loves, our daughter doesn't need us anymore."

The duchess said with a nod of agreement, "Right, once she has that special person in her life, she forgets about her parents."

Veronica quickly left my embrace with a blush on her face before turning to say, "Of course I still need you."

The two of them just looked at her with doting smiles on their faces.

But then, the duke suddenly turned to me and bowed his head as he said, "I ask that you take care of her from now on."

To my surprise, I found that the duchess had also bowed her head to me.
