Cale Henituse's Secret Love Child

Chapter 5: Ecly

A week later, after his afternoon class Beth informed Alexander that Otus and the others were currently in the garden.

"Your Highness, His Majesty Otus, is requesting your presence in the garden."

"Really?"

"Yes, Your Highness"

"I see. Ah! Beth, do you remember the box Alex told you about before?"

Beth thought about it for a bit before asking, "Was it the wooden box hidden under your bed, Your Highness?"

Alexander nodded his head repeatedly and exclaimed, "Yeah! That one! Can you fetch it for Alex later?"

"Yes, Your Highness."

"Then, please take Alex to the garden, Beth!"

Beth giggled as she picked him up.

"Yes, Your Highness."

✧✧✧

Alexander saw Otus having tea with three other people at the gazebo in the middle of the garden.

He smiled brightly as he greeted them all while still in Beth's arms.

"Good afternoon, Gwandpa Otus! Gwandma Silvia! Auwtie Doris! Uncwe Silvan!"

The four turned their heads toward the direction of the voice and smiled humorously when they saw that it was their favorite little prince who called them.

Otus was the first one to respond to his enthusiastic greeting, "Oh, little Alex, here you are."

The elegant silver-haired lady beside him spoke next, "Good day to you too, Alexander."

"Hello, Alex." greeted the golden-haired lady.

And lastly, the white-haired man with a confident smile waved at him, "Greetings, Al."

Beth gently placed Alexander down near Otus and immediately Otus picked him up and placed him on the empty seat to his right. Silvia, the elegant silver-haired lady, asked him once he settled on his seat.

"You just finished class, dear?"

Alexander looked up at her and nodded. "Yes!"

At his answer, Otus leaned towards him and asked him with a frown on his face, "Is Clint teaching you properly? That kid wasn't too strict with you, right?"

Alexander shook his head in denial. Mr. Clint has been very helpful to him in his quest to know the world he was reincarnated in. Without him, he may be floundering about in a room somewhere in the castle. That's why he replied honestly.

"No, Mr. Clint was very patient with Alex and he's very talented in teaching!"

Otus looked at him in wonder. It's not an everyday sight to see someone not be afraid of his son. Otus can't even count how many students and young children cried because of his perfectionist son. Are the times changing? Or is it because it's Alexander? He can't say that it's because of Alex's age since Clint certainly made a one-year-old "genius" cry before.

How interesting. As expected of Esther's and that man's child.

The golden-haired lady, Doris, asked him next, "That's a relief. Then are you having fun, Alex?"

"Yes, Alex finds learning new things very fun!"

Snickering, the white-haired man, Silvan, playfully adds, "That's very peacock of you, Al~"
