“Grandpa, are you really not coming back with me?” Alicia tore her arm from Aaron’s and approached Clement to grab his.
With reddened eyes, she choked, “I don’t want to part with you…”
She could not help but worry about the idea of Clement living alone, especially when he was quite old.
“Please come with me. It’s okay if you don’t want to live in the palace or the city, I’ll find a house for you in the suburbs. As long as it’s a place where I can go to anytime when I want to see you,” she said.
Clement studied Alicia, whose eyes were brimming with tears.
I’m her only relative left. I guess it’ll be hard for her to adapt now that she’s suddenly getting married into the royal family.
After pondering for a while, he agreed and went back with her.
Upon returning, Aaron helped Clement to settle down and hired a housekeeper to take care of the latter. When that was done, Aaron took Alicia to register their marriage. After getting the long-awaited marriage certificate, they ended the registration with a passionate kiss.
Aaron then brought her back to the palace and crowned her queen while Celeste took Nancy’s place as the queen’s mother. Even so, Celeste still stayed in her own palace because the one Nancy stayed in had been sealed long ago.
Next, Aaron brought Alicia to meet Celeste.
Along the way, Alicia could not help but feel worried that his mother would not like her.
Noting her unease, Aaron informed her that Celeste liked her very much. Only then did Alicia relax a little.
When they arrived at Celeste’s residence, Miranda hurriedly welcomed them in.
