How To Hide Emperor's Child

Chapter 83

A small carriage rattled along the forest trail.

Theor rolled the stiff woolen cloth that covered the windowpane with his little hand.

The blue sky and a wide wheat field could be seen through the small gap between the curtains.

It has been five days since he left the capital.

Theor was returning home with his grandfather.

The ride home in the small carriage was fun.

When he went to the capital, he slept in a palace-like castle in a large carriage, but this time he slept in small houses as he moved from village to village.

While riding the carriage, he had to get off sometimes and move to another carriage.

Theor visited the vegetable garden and the stream from time to time.

Theor looked up at his grandfather as he walked along the path of a stream and asked,

"Grandpa, when is Mom coming?"

The Marquis carrying the luggage replied with a smile to Theor,

"If we go home first, she will come soon."

Theor believed it.

Before he left, his mother said the same thing.

If he goes home with his grandfather first, she will follow.

Thinking of the capital mansion, Theor turned to his grandfather again.

"Will Blynn and Hannah come with Mom, too?"

"Of course."

It would be nice if Blynn and Hannah also came.

After leaving the mansion, whenever Theor had spare time, he missed his big hound.

He also missed Hannah, who brought her sweet cookies with a caring smile.

Of course, the one he missed the most was his mother.

After leaving the mansion, Theor missed his mother every night.

'Go home with your grandfather first. Mom will follow soon.'

It was the last time he heard his mother's voice before he left the mansion.

Theor missed his mother, but he endured it without crying.

If he came home, his mother would be back soon.

His grandfather was by his side and took good care of him, so he was able to bear it.

The two arrived in a small town around sunset.

The Marquis entered the building at the entrance of the village.

It was a large, two-story building that was well lit.

"Grandpa, where are we?"

"It's an inn. We're going to sleep here today."

Theor knew what inn was.

Leaving the capital, the two continued to sleep in an inn somewhere.

As they went inside, there was a loud noise and the smell of fragrant food.

The Marquis took the key from the man at the door, grabbed Theor's hand, and went up to the room on the second floor.

There was a small bed, a wardrobe and a chair in the square room.

Theor and his grandfather had a simple meal of white bread, boiled vegetables, meat, and soup.

It was nothing compared to the meal he ate at the castle or mansion, but Theor ate deliciously.
