The Alpha: Claiming His Enemy's Daughter novel Chapter 1031

Chapter 1031: SIDE STORY (ABBY): HAPPINESS

And just like what Abby had predicted, the moment the three elders stepped their foot in the Andel continent, the support for them increased significantly.

Those people, who disagreed with Abby’s decision to end the reign of the Holy Kingdom and decided to share the power with the royal family were quick to stick by the elders’ side.

However, it was so unfortunate for them, because it was already so late. The collaboration between Holy Kingdom and Andel Kingdom was a refreshing air for the people.

Serafim Abby and prince Barry became a new icon for them, the icon of peace and unity. The two of them were loved by the people.

Therefore, the Elders would only dig their own grave if they tried to disrupt this peaceful era.

Nonetheless, despite the support they had from a few people in the Holy Kingdom, there was nothing they could do. They had been absent for three years and they had lost all the support and real strength that once they had.

"Don’t you want to see them?" Barry asked Abby when he just returned from his meeting. "I heard they have been here for a month." _{freeweɓnovēl.coɱ}

He didn’t bring this topic up sooner, because he knew how sensitive this topic was for Abby, but he felt they needed to address this sooner or later, especially when he received a letter from Elder Rose.

"There is no need for me to see them."

Abby took off her hair piece and let her cascaded down her back. They had been married for less than a year and their interaction would always be related to the state affair, it really felt like a marriage business, though they always showed the people how affectionate they were with each other, to the point, most of the people forgot this marriage was an arranged one.

"Elder Rose sent me this letter," Barry said, he put the letter in front of Abby and stood behind her to comb her hair.

"Why did she send you a letter?" Abby opened it and read it casually. Even though the letter was directed to Barry, but the content was directed to Abby and the gist of it was; Elder Rose wanted to see Abby, she asked for Barry to help.

"Probably because she knew that you wouldn’t open the letter if you knew it came from her."

"I wish she could understand that and leave me alone," Abby said, she stared at Barry. This man was always kind and respectful toward her. He kept his word to treat Bielle nicely and in this past year, he became a father figure for her little one.

"Okay." Barry nodded.

"Thank you, Barry. I will not have someone more understanding than you."

Barry smiled. "Don’t say that when you have Cedric. It didn’t sound genuine." He then added. "Can you avoid to meet with him alone? People talked."

Abby was slightly taken aback and lowered her head. "Understood."

She understood that they had to fulfill their own role, but Abby felt comfortable with Cedric. Not in a romantic way, but she saw him as a big brother. She always saw him in that way, but with her status as prince Barry’s wife, she wouldn’t be able to afford to have scandalous rumor about her and Cedric.

It wouldn’t only hurt her, but also Cedric.

People could be very vile and vicious and a rumor could be the start of a downfall.

Abby had worked so hard for this, she couldn’t take a risk when her daughter was also added into the equivalent.

However, Abby needed to make it clear with Cedric for one last time, thus she met with him in secret to tell him that he was released from his duty as her personal knights.

"I am sorry, Cedric." Abby felt so sad to have to let go the last person from her past. She felt like their day together when they were little, when there were only the three of them, were the best moments of her life.

She really wanted to return to that moment, even though life didn’t treat her well, but she always had Cedric and Liam to rely on.

"I understood." Cedric nodded.

To Abby’s surprised, Cedric didn’t argue with her. She had prepared a long explanation and thought about all the answer for a possible question that Cedric would give to her, but as it turned out he accepted it without any question.

"Don’t you want to know why?"

Cedric chuckled. He looked relax. "I know this day will come one day, Abby. I am well aware of the rumor that started among the people."
