Mafia Prince's Love

Chapter - 36 Hope in the Air

As Uea's condition began to show signs of improvement, the news of his progress quickly spread through both the Phoenix and Red Dragon families.

(Red Dragon Mansion, Main Hall)

The grand hall of the Red Dragon Mansion was alive with a palpable sense of hope, a welcome change from the tension that had gripped the household for the past few days.

The news of Uea's improving condition had spread like a refreshing breeze, lifting spirits and spreading smiles through the halls.

It was as if a dark cloud had finally lifted, replaced by the warmth of relief and cautious optimism.

In the center of the hall stood Phayu, Rain, Prapai, and Sky, their expressions reflecting a blend of happiness and cautious anticipation.

The ordeal they had been through was not over, but this was the first real sign that things were starting to turn around.

Phayu: (letting out a deep breath, visibly relieved) "It's about time we heard some good news. Sand's finally coming back to us."

Rain: (nodding, a small smile tugging at his lips) "Yeah, it's been a tough few days, but this... this is the sign we needed."

As if on cue, Charlie came bounding into the room with all the energy of a three-year-old, his face alight with joy as he clutched a small toy car in his hand.

His bright eyes sparkled with excitement, and not far behind him toddled little Rose, her curls bouncing with each step as she tried to keep up with her older cousin.

Her curious gaze locked onto the activity around her, clearly eager to join in the fun.

Charlie: (grinning widely, running up to Phayu) "Uncle Phayu, play with me!"

Rose: (stretching her tiny arms toward Phayu, her voice sweet) "Daddy! Up!"

Phayu's heart melted at the sight of the two children. He bent down to scoop Rose into his arms, her infectious giggles filling the room as she clung to him, her little fingers curling into his shirt.

Meanwhile, Charlie tugged insistently on Phayu's pant leg, his eyes shining with eager anticipation.

Phayu: (smiling warmly, ruffling Charlie's hair) "In a bit, buddy. We've got some important news to talk about first."

Sky, watching the children with a soft smile, couldn't help but feel his heart swell with affection. The atmosphere, once heavy with fear, now held a sense of peace.

Sky: (gently) "They can feel the change, even if they don't fully understand it."

Prapai knelt beside Charlie, taking the toy car from him with a playful grin. Charlie's eyes lit up as Prapai set the car down and gave it a good push, sending it racing across the polished floor.

Charlie scrambled after it, his laughter echoing through the hall as he chased the toy, his joy bringing lightness to the room.

Prapai: (glancing up at Rain, his tone turning more serious) "How's King holding up? He must be relieved, but I know today's a big day for him..."

Rain's expression darkened slightly, though his voice remained calm and steady.

Rain: (with quiet resolve) "After everything they did to Sand, King's making sure they'll never hurt anyone again. Today, he's ending it. (Gram, Eugene, and Evana) Sand will wake up to a world where they no longer exist."

There was a moment of somber reflection in the room, but it was quickly lifted as Rose, still nestled in Phayu's arms, reached up to grab his face with her tiny hands.
