Duke's Son Wish To Follow The Story

Chapter 10: My Live On The Line

Silence*

Everyone's mouths remain shut as they listen to Leon answer. They understand precisely Leon's attention.

'he didn't want unwanted variables in the future.'

'my son is too smart for his own good.'

'ah this scary brother is too meticulous'

Those words ended up occurring in the mind of each of his family members. Leon knows too well that his family will be ended up thinking like that. And it was true. Though each of his family trying to put on a façade of calm face, Leon is still able to read their minds.

'it was actually written all over their face'

Leon sigh as he looks at each of his family members. But he didn't really care because he didn't have any intention to let go of the oath. He was prepared for everything as he walks to this dining hall. Even without his family's agreement, he will force his way thru.

"so... Father please ask Mir to bring your crest here only then I can proceed"

"huuu...alright I know I can't stop you..."

Duke Carl put down his cutlery that he hold tight just now, and quickly took a deep breath.

"Mir!!!!"

He shouted to call Mir and instantly this house head butler Mir open the door and greet him.

"Yes, milord this humble butler's Mir greet the Duke-"

"Mir...Bring my crest from the office quick!!!"

Duke Carl cut Mir's word off and urge him to bring the crest. Mir is stunned and looks at the Duke with blur expression. He seems not to understand the situation right now.

"wha-milord I-"

"don't question... just bring me that thing now!!!"

Although Mir was quite startled by Duke Carl's order, he still swiftly proceed with the command.

"I understand milord, I will be back"

Says him as he takes his leave to the office.

Sigh*

Duke Carl sigh as he picked up back his cutlery to continue his eating which delay because of everything that happen.

'I need to eat quickly before I lose appetite'

Thought Duke Carl as he quickens his eating pace. Both his wife and Luis watch him eating and also quicken their pace in eating. They realized that they also need to eat faster before the crest appear here.

'quick before the food is wasted.' 

Thoughts both mother and son.

Leon watched his family anxiously eating their dinner. He then took a glance towards his left side where the chef and the maids standing. He could see how anxious and worried they all about everything that was about to happen.

But Leon was calm, he didn't show any slight anxiety with this current situation. His mind was clear. He didn't worry as he already prepares for this moment.

'I need to act accordingly... this is the road to be free... Let's do this Leon.. we can do this.'

As Leon has those thoughts,

clatter*

The sound of the fork and knife being put down on the plate could be heard. Everyone ended up glancing over the sound coming from. They could see Luis's hands wiping up his mouth elegantly before putting it back down.
