The Prince Who Was Raised in Hell novel Chapter 26

“Thank you for everything, Uncle James.” Caspian cupped his hands and bowed.

Since he was allowed to stay with the Lawrence family, it meant that Caspian had achieved the first step of his plan.

James rhythmically tapped on the chair, and he looked at Caspian, saying, “Casper, there are a few things that I must let you know. Before this, the Lawrence family prepared a sum of money and some gifts to welcome you. However, based on what happened today, I won’t be able to make a good explanation to others if I don’t punish you.”

Then, James continued, “Since that’s the case, I’ll remove some of your supposed gifts and leave you with two only. When you’re finally settled in, you can find some time in the next two days to visit Lawrence Fort‘s martial art chamber. There, you can pick a skill and a weapon. You must remember that since you stepped into my gate today, the Lawrence family will have to be responsible for you. I don’t want what happened today to happen again. As for your identity, we’ll wait until my father comes out and announces it. After all, this is his long-cherished wish.”

“Understood, Uncle James. I’ll remember it. Thank you for looking out for me.” Caspian cupped his hands.

Just as what Caspian expected, James only slapped him on the wrist.

Even though James said he would punish him, he only took away the gifts that Caspian never considered. Moreover, James did not take everything, and he even left Caspian a chance to learn a martial skill and choose a weapon.

For the sake of dealing with the assassins that Carson sent, Caspian lost his Meteorite Sword and Dragon-Exterminator Spear. He was worried about not having any weapons with him, but James gave him just what he needed. Since Caspian was free for the next two days, he decided to check on the place.

Caspian was feeling suspicious of the gifts that James took back. He bet that they did not even exist, and the martial skill and weapon were James’s rewards for Caspian for helping the Lawrence family handle the Yates family. As for the real reasoning behind that, Caspian would naturally not ask anything more.

Soon, James arranged for a servant to lead Caspian to another courtyard in the manor.

The small courtyard was located at the corner of the Lawrence Manor, and it was no more than 12000 square meters. Thankfully, the place was quiet, and no one would bother him. Thus, the small courtyard was exactly just what Caspian needed now.

After entering the room, Caspian barely rested when he heard Lucas’s voice from outside. “Caspian, it‘s us.”

Caspian guessed that they should be here by now, so he opened the door and invited Lucas and Fabian in. Both of them had strange expressions on their faces.

The news of James’s so-called punishment for Caspian spread among the Lawrences. Before this, everyone thought Caspian would be heavily punished as he was arrogant and ruined the relationship between the two powerful families. After all, Caspian was marrying into the Lawrence family. Hence, even though his identity was not officially publicized, the Lawrence family seniors all knew about this matter.

As a son-in-law staying with his wife’s family, he dared to interrupt the household’s affairs. Furthermore, he even humiliated them. That was simply atrocious!

Surprisingly, Caspian was not even punished in the end. This was intriguing for many people.

It might be inconvenient for others to ask Caspian, but Lucas and Fabian could not wait any longer as they felt as if they had been through a roller-coaster ride the whole day. Hence, they were curious as to what happened.

As soon as they sat, Lucas immediately asked Caspian, and it could be seen that he was highly troubled.
