"I'm scared, where is my mom? I'm scared!"
The eyes of the emperor opened the sight of a tear-stained child.
As if their previous meeting had already disappeared from the child's head with ash, Carlisle was now screaming and crying with fear.
When Raymond was about to touch the child, he trembled even more and pulled away.
As if he was afraid of being harmed again.
Raymond, shocked by this phenomenon, lost the will to change anything.
In the end, Carlisle found peace only when he found himself in the arms of his grandfather.
The palace physician assured that the boy did not lose his memory, but only was in shock and fear of unfamiliar surroundings.
Extreme horror was seen in those black eyes opposite.
Raymond did not dare to stand in the room in order to avoid further complications, and remained in the doorway.
At this time, the butler turned to the exit and almost took down the emperor himself. He hastily fell down on his face.
"Sire. They did not lead to execute!"
"Calm down at least you."
Raymond pulled the butler by the hand and said.
Through the open door he watched Carlisle lying on the bed.
The butler disappeared back home, and Raymond still entered the room.
As he got closer to the bed, his usually even breathing quickened.
"You've already fallen asleep."
Carlisle was now asleep, clutching the pillow tightly.
The baby's eyes were swollen from how much he cried.
With a difficult feeling in his heart, he looked around Carlisle's reddened eyes, and then directed his gaze to Duke Croft, who was standing by the bed.
"Duke. Ellie scrambled out, there is no more reason to panic."
"Thank you, sire."
"I'm not done with you and Ellie yet. I'm just worried about Carlisle."
"I will gladly accept any punishment."
"I don't want to listen to this nonsense."
Raymond snapped back with an annoyed face.
"Stay with Carlisle for now. The child goes crazy without you."
"As you order."
The Duke bowed his head.
Raymond cast another meek glance at the sleeping Carlisle, and turned towards the door.
Returning to the study, he collapsed on the sofa in exhaustion.
Closing his eyes, he grabbed his temples.
Let his head no longer hurt like it used to, but that is why his thoughts have not become easier.
It is impossible to hide the fact that Carlisle is his son forever.
The crowd of courtiers was innumerable.
In the end, it will be a matter of time before Carlisle's existence is made public. And then the empire will turn upside down in an instant.
Black hair and black eyes.
The undisputed symbol of the ruling family.
Then Ellie will no longer be able to grab Carlisle and hide behind the sea.
