“Go on now. Just do as I say!” Aaron asserted in a grim voice.
Cognizant that there was no stopping Aaron, Morrison had no choice but to obey.
Once Morrison had left, Aaron got to his feet and headed toward Celeste’s palace.
When Miranda saw him arrive, she received him with a smile. “Her Majesty was just talking about you…”
“How is she?” Aaron asked.
Upon hearing Aaron’s concern, Miranda’s eyes lit up.
“Her Majesty is fine. She just misses you.”
Amidst their conversation, both of them entered the palace.
Celeste was delighted by the sight of Aaron. “What brings you here at this hour?”
“Mother, I’m planning to travel to Chanaea.”
“Why? Aren’t you still searching for Arielle and the others?” the puzzled Celeste inquired.
Truth be told, she wasn’t keen on him going to Chanaea.
Now that he’s the king of Turlen, what’s going to happen to the country in his absence?
Who’s going to be in charge?
“Vin’s company is in trouble. Hence, I need to hurry over to resolve it.” Aaron looked at Celeste as he spoke. “I‘ll be back as soon as possible.”
When Celeste recalled how much Arielle and Vinson had helped Aaron, she couldn’t bring herself to object.
“Watch yourself on your way there. In the meantime, you can leave Lawrence and your uncle jointly in charge,” said Celeste.
