Chapter 431 429:Moment Of Relief

Within a span of a second, Alex's jaw opened and closed countless times.

He stared at Zach with a bewildered look and asked.

"Does this happen every time?"

Zach shrinks back a little after witnessing Alex's expression.

He felt as if he stepped right into the quarrel between two couples.

"No, no!"

"Maybe Lady Yvonne had some other work. She always picks up the call and listens to our words" Zach tried to calm Alex down.

"Call her again and again until she picks up due to frustration."

"If she plucks this, use other channels to make the call. Ask the chairman of other places to call. I want to talk to her now.'

Every time the call was picked the image of both sides was displayed.

This is also why he felt hurt, Yvonne might have seen him but didn't recognize him and cut the call.

Maybe she hadn't even seen him as she cut the call too fast but whatever maybe he felt a bit hurt.

Zach with sweaty hands started his mission of being a stalking caller who kept calling again and again.

BUZZ...BUZZZ...BUZZZ...BUZZZ

....

In Leonhart, an important meeting was going on with many key figures.

At a large round table, one side was occupied by Catherine, Yvonne, Athena and Christina.

On the other side, Count Bassie, Morderk, Lamapart, Count Steelwall.

Even the Chief of Wolftribesman Peru and Chief of Orc's Kassel were also present.

All of them were gathered to review the recent affairs of the current Leonhart and to make any necessary amendments if required.

The tense atmosphere lingering in the room was broken by a repeated buzzing sound from Yvonne's side.

Yvonne was embarrassed for a moment and was boiling with rage.

'What's up with this idiot? He is repeatedly calling me even if I cut it. Is there a hole in his head or he wanted to be fired from his job?'

Generally, it was his assistant who carried this but with all troubles popping around, Alex suggested keeping this thing to herself so that she could respond to an immediate crisis which could also avert any disaster in case his assistant betrays fur for some reason.

Chairmen from other places were also making the calls.

Catherine sighed and said, "Yvonne, pick up the call."

"In the meantime, let's take a break."

"Yes Your Highness!" The other nodded and started to head out.

Gritting her teeth, Yvonne took it out and received the call.

On the screen, Zach appeared along with an anonymous man with dark hair and a hazy face that seems quite familiar but also unfamiliar.

If it was another case she might have recognised him but she was a bit overtaken by rage and it was one of her bad habits to lose her temper easily.

"Zach, what the hell is wrong with you? Why are you disturbing me?"

"And who is this shithead? Is he the reason for all your stupidity?"

The anonymous man stared at Yvonne's face with a cold expression and said"Did you call me shithead? Just because I left you all for two months did you forget me or did you think I have died and you can do as you please?"

Athena, who was taking a sip of the iced coffee on the other side while savouring the flavour suddenly choked.

Pffttt!

The coffee splattered directly on Catherine's face.

Catherine's eyes widened and before she could speak, Athena jumped up like a silly girl and screamed"Alex, is that you...?"

"Huh!"

A deep silence lasted for a moment following a loud erupt of shock.

Yvonne closed her mouth due to instinct. Her brain short-circuited suddenly due to the shock.

She didn't know whether this was due to the shock of seeing him or being terrified of calling and cursing him.

Seeing his foul mood, Yvonne was sure that this guy would collect the debt with ten times the interest at the next meeting.

Alex felt his throat clump for a bit and he was unable to speak. He just stared at his wife's reaction which soothes his heart.

Worry, uneasiness, fear, concern, distress.

He could see many emotions on their face but at the same time, he could see all the negative feelings disappearing slowly and steadily.

"Al-Ale...Alex you look hot in black hair?" Athena spoke while jumping like a fan girl.

Athena's words brought another round of silence and the other four averted their gaze.

Catherine turned her head with a blush and waved her hand as if she wanted to cool down.

Although she didn't say anything, she agreed with Athena perfectly.

It would be a lie if she said she didn't like his appearance.

Christina noticed Catherine's odd expression and handed her a handkerchief.

"I don't need it. It's not that hot." Catherine spoke.

"I think it's better to wipe out your face."

Catherine lowered her head with embarrassment and pulled the handkerchief.

Meanwhile, on the other side, Alex coughed a bit.

"Thanks, Athena. You also look lovely."

"No, in fact, every one of my wives is a fairy descended from heaven made especially for me to shelter."

He raised his chin proudly but his smugness disappeared as his gaze caught the thorn on the other side.

"Zach can give me some private space."

"Yeah sure, sir."

"And also call Riya here. She is currently being called Priya so be mindful of it."

After Zach left, his eyes locked onto his wife.

"How are you all?"

"And Yvonne, don't think too much. It was just a joke. I am not pissed at you, rather I am really happy and proud that you have a channel that helped to get in touch with you. I owe you a lot." Alex trying to the chalice

'Sure enough, they don't look well. Due to restlessness, they have not looked after their health well.'

"We are well, don't worry about us. Tell us about your end." Catherine spoke.

"Yeah, Alex tells us everything truthfully. You looked like you were under every burden." Athena spoke with a worried tone.

Alex smiled and shook his head.

"After what happened in the war, it would be odd if I don't worry about it."
