Carissa pinched his cheek playfully. "If you stop scowling in front of her, she won't think you're going to lecture her."
Rafael caught her hand and, with a playful peck on her lips, replied with a smile, "I can't help it—it's just my natural aura."
"You often smile when you're with me, don't you? You should smile more at her too."
Rafael nodded. "Alright, I'll do as you say."
Carissa went out to give instructions, telling the servants not to bring food to Helen's room. Instead, Carissa would personally invite her to the dining hall.
Helen was a bit fidgety, and asked several times how Rafael was feeling today.
Carissa reassured, "He's in a good mood."
Relieved, Helen followed Carissa to the dining hall. Rafael was already seated and, upon seeing her, stood up and greeted her.
"Mom, you're here."
His tall, upright figure, combined with his habitual calm demeanor, conveyed the imposing presence of a seasoned general.
Then, in a show of obedience to his wife's advice, Rafael slowly smiled at Helen.
Helen was taken aback.
In her mind, she recalled the signs before the late emperor's outbursts—he would also slowly show a smile or a cold grin before erupting into fierce anger.
Rafael increasingly resembled his father in this regard.
However, Helen nodded and said, "Sit down."
She settled into her seat with a steady calmness. With Carissa around, she felt assured that Rafael wouldn't exhibit any signs of anger like his father.
A short while later, Kiera and Ryan arrived and took their seats.

I wish there were more chapters uploaded daily. Atleast 10 per day....
When will the next chapter be uploaded? This story is so awesome!...
I’ve read several novels, but this is the best of the best....
I hope that Rafael will not fall for Carmen. I don’t think I can keep reading if he does. Carissa deserves to have a pure and strong love with Rafael that world stand the test of time and all trials and tribulations....
