Chapter 394: Ashamed
Lucas’s gaze alternated between Alaric and Dudu. He had a lot of questions, but he refrained from asking. He knew that Alaric would tell him everything about her privately.
"You should head inside first. We have already told the servants to prepare a feast." Maria spoke and gestured for him to enter the mansion.
"Alright." Alaric nodded and handed the baby back to her.
A moment later, they entered the main mansion and headed straight to the main hall while waiting for their food.
"Where is Hershey? I don’t see her here." Alaric looked around, searching for his wife’s figure, but she was nowhere to be found.
"She went to Vale for an errand. Your father sent his subordinates to protect her in secret so you don’t have to worry about her safety."
Jade Kristine replied.
"I already sent a messenger bird to inform her about your return. She should be hurrying over by now." She added.
"I see. That’s good." Alaric nodded, grateful for their meticulous effort to ensure his wife’s safety.
They asked him about his experiences in the western region, but they tacitly agreed not to mention anything about the war. They knew that it was a sensitive topic that should only be discussed privately.
Alaric told them about the places he had visited. He also told them about the new people he had met. He then took the chance to introduce Rewin and the two women he had brought.
