Chapter 169: chapter 169- Grandmother and Grandson

"...That's how we come to the agreement, the point is, we help your aunt to leave the palace with the condition that he will not break ties with the family, that's why your aunt still uses the name "D'Archy" in her name, this is to make it easier for us to look for her if something critical happens and we can also stay updated about her life during this time"

"..."

"..."

"But your aunt doesn't want to live in peace; in recent years, because of her work in fashion, her name is quite famous in the country she currently lives in and even overseas... Do you know how hard we worked to cover it up?

moving on from your aunt, we managed to handle it to a certain extent, but here comes a bigger problem, Taufik, your cousin, we suddenly heard news that he wiped out a Magician family by himself, it had shocked the Supernatural World for a few weeks, do you know how many days we didn't sleep because of that?...

initially, we thought Rosa would only leave home for a while and would return after she felt calm enough; who would have thought it would last until now, and even had a family and children? Do you know why your uncle Edmund rarely comes home? And Never Finds a Partner for himself?

it's all because of this; he feels responsible because he was the one who gave full support to Rosa at that time, so he worked the hardest to hide Rosa's existence and protect her in the dark from the enemies of the kingdom, and even now, he still does that"

"..."

"What with that absurd situation, father? Are you trying to say that... Our Aunt, your Sister... OUR OWN FAMILY leaves us, Leaves the house just because of a chain of... Misunderstanding?"

Ask Amanda, who was bewildered after she heard what her Father said.

"Yeahhh~ Kinda... Something like that, I think"

William said a little unsurely, and Amanda and Caldwell were Speechless because of their Father's ambiguous answer.

"Twenty... It's over twenty years, Father, and all of this happens only because of a Misunderstanding and lack of Communication?"

Said Caldwell, who seems to have had enough of this absurd situation.

"... What can we do, son? It's already happened, and without us realizing it, it's already too late for us to ask her to back here"

"You Should've told us that from the beginning, Father, why do you hide that fact from us for over twenty years long?"

After Amanda said that, the trio of children and father had a heated argument; Caldwell and Amanda were angry because they felt that their efforts had been in vain, and William continued to try to convince them that what he and Edmund did was not a mistake, they just trying to protect their little sister, only that. seaʀᴄh thё nôᴠel Fire.nёt website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

However, in contrast to the atmosphere outside the room, surprisingly, the atmosphere inside the room was calmer than the atmosphere outside.

- Inside of William's Workspace.

"... Whoaa~ You have four Wives, and all of them are pregnant right now?"

The Queen said with a face full of surprise.

"Yes~ this and that happened which brought me to who I am Right now... but I'm happy about it, I'm even looking forward to it"

Said Taufik while Imagine the day his children will born and he will carry them in his hands.

"... Maybe my two hands will not be enough to carry them all at the same time, It's only at a time like this I hope my arms are more than two ahahaha~"

Hearing this, the Queen just smiled while looking at Taufik, in her gaze, a slight feeling of regret was visible, and tears almost fell from her eyes.

"... Are you okay, Grandma?"

"... What a shame"

"Yes...?"

"No, I just thinking about how much time has passed, until I even went through your growing up years, and here you are in front of me already a man, what a shame"

"..."

"If only I didn't hesitate at that time, If only I wasn't afraid of being rejected by your mother... if I had the courage to come and meet her that day, Maybe all of this would never have happened...

Said the queen in a sad tone mixed with regret that Taufik could feel in every word that came out of her mouth; after that, she paused for a moment to catch her breath before continuing her words.

...

After my husband, your grandfather, who was someone who accompanied me to rule this kingdom, he who always gave me advice, left this world, my mind was in chaos, I began to hesitate in making decisions, I often wondered whether the choice I would make would have a good impact or not on the kingdom, and the decision to marry your mother was one of those things, but it was only a plan, but maybe the way I conveyed it to your mother was wrong, that's why she left me...

your mother, even with her shortcomings she always tried her best, I know all that, I witnessed all that, so... tell me son, what can your grandmother do to make up for all of that?"

Said the Queen with an Expression that said that she would not accept a rejection.

"Don't just suddenly look toward me like that, Grandma, it's not fair"

Said Taufik with a bitter smile because his grandmother suddenly changed her tone and expression which was typical of a queen.

"Fufu~ I'm a Queen, after all, so say it, what I can do for you?"

"Right now, I don't lack anything, hmm~ Rather than me, wouldn't it be better if you told my mother about it? She'll definitely be happy about it, what do you think, Grandma?"

"... Do you think it's okay? After all these years, do you think she will forgive me?"

"It will be okay, maybe she also wants to meet you, after all, blood is thicker than water, and the relationship between mother and child is not that easy to break, she is in Japan right now, what do you think, Grandma, will you do it or are you gonna wait for the next chance?"

"..."

Seeing the queen's doubtful expression, Taufik immediately stood up from the couch and then went to sit beside the queen.

"You don't have to answer me right now, I will be back here tomorrow or the day after tomorrow, you can answer me at that time"

Said Taufik then put his hand on the Queen's hand; surprisingly, even though the Queen was quite old, the skin on her hand was still quite smooth. However, Taufik still thought it was normal because the Queen was also a Magician.

"I'm curious. How old are you, Grandma?"

Said Taufik with a smile and a slightly teasing tone.

"... You, bad kid...

Said the queen while pinching Taufik Ceeks with her other hand.

... Don't you know that asking about a lady's age is rude, huh?"

"You? A lady? Then what Am I? A fetus?"

Said Taufik jokingly. Hearing this, the Queen narrowed her eyes and looked at Taufik, and Taufik, who saw this, began to wonder.

'Was my joke a little too much?'

But a moment later, the Queen began to shed tears and immediately hugged Taufik. This makes Taufik motionless.

"... you look so much like your mother, I just can't help it"

Taufik could not reply with any words other than hugging the queen while stroking the queen's back to calm her down.

"... You're the one who looks like her, Grandma. I remember doing this to my mother too, you guys just can't take a joke"

#A/N- "Chapter four I think?"

They remained in that position for a while, the Queen still crying and Taufik continuing to try to calm her down by stroking her back.

"... I'm Sorry my son, I can't hold it"

Said The Queen after he let go of Taufik from her embrace.

"It's okay, it's not every day you can see a queen crying, isn't it?"

said Taufik, who made another joke to lighten the mood.

"You still joke with your grandmother like that? You are indeed a naughty grandson... But I'm Happy...Thank you for showing up Today, it's made me feel a lot better... I hope you can live here with me for the rest of my life that is left, but I know it is a selfish desire of mine, you can forget it"

Hearing that, Taufik just smiled.

"I can't promise you every day, but I will stop by once in a while"

"Really?"

"... I will not lie if it comes to something like this, And if just on Earth I can go everywhere, if it's for you I can even go to the moon, believe me, I can do that"

"..."

"Why? You don't believe me?"

Said Taufik after he saw his Grandmother feel silent after he said that word.

"...Is that how you seduce all your wives?"

"..."

Now it was Taufik's turn to be silent because of his grandmother's words.

"Ahahaha~"

Seeing Taufik's expression, the Queen couldn't hold back her laughter and immediately burst out laughing.

After that, they continued their conversation about many things without caring about those outside who were still having a heated debate without knowing the situation that was happening inside.
