The trash father has redeemed himself

Emperor Farrington. 10

"Theodore... Have you also forgotten your place? What are you doing?"

"I know- I know I'm being rude your majesty but what you did to Elizabeth was wrong" Theo feels like killing himself

Leopold scoffs, a child is what it takes for Theo to stand up to him? "If you knew how to parent and discipline your child then maybe I wouldn't have to"

Theodore holds Lizzie tigher, he feels like Leopold might raise his hand again, he then let's go after some pondering

"Lizzie can you go to your friends for a moment?" He looks at the other ducal children, the children are doing hand gestures to make Elizabeth come over

"Okay... "

Both of them stand up and Lizzie runs to her friends, and Theodore looks at Leopold in the eye

"Your Majesty, I will raise my daughter how I want to and she is a good child"

"So you've acquired a backbone? That's nice... However your using it against the wrong person, if you still want to be a Duke, stay in your lane"

"I have done my part in this empire, though I don't participate politically, Because of my businesses the empires economic status is doing well..."

"So? We have Clemonte, we don't need you, keep talking and we'll see where that gets you"

"To be a Duke both emperors have to acknowledge the household and to disband one you need both rulers as well, Emperor Farrington has a say in my position"

"And I don't agree with your house disbanding, Leopold has always put his emotions first rather than his brain, Leo don't you know that Theodore is the only Duke left at your faction, of you throw him away it'll be easy to defeat you... And that's not fun is it?"

"Why do you always interfere...? Can't you leave me be, don't you have to take care of a lot more other people to be here?" Leopold grits his teeth

Hah? The fuck is going on??? Uhm... Hi! I'm the narrator, you can call me "Narrator", cause like I'll ever tell you my actual name, so what I'm seeing is a dynamic between the Emperors and I don't know much since I've only ever read the main story and it doesn't focus on those two... I'll see if I can find a source to explain this, hold on

*rummaging*

.......

"Oh.. Oh! Well! So actually the main story actually has a side story and it's about the emperors! Fuck is this romance? Aren't they related? Oh wait it's not, the author is not a fan of that genre, hmm... Well! Manhwa cliche trivia time! You ever read those fantasy manhwa where two people are really close then one betrays the other? But the betrayed can't seem to be angry at the betrayer, that's their relationship, well I'm a narrator not a spoiler so that's all you'll get"

Anyways! So...

Emperor Horus Farrington scoffs "Can you really even abandon him in the first place? Look how easy it was for him to stand up to you, he drifted away by himself" He mocks Leopold

'What the actual fuck, I just wanted to defend my daughter' Theodore thinks
