Chapter 362.2
“Are your parents okay? Flora mentioned something about the Arse family, and it’s been bothering me,” Kasser inquired. Eugene sensed an unsettling look in Kasser’s eyes when they met, and his intuition hinted that something was amiss.
“What’s going on? What happened?”
“Well, it’s not exactly a problem, but… your mother is coming to the kingdom.”
“My mom? When?”
“She said she would depart as soon as the dry season begins, so she might have left by now.”
“Why didn’t you tell me about this?” Kasser began to sweat as Eugene’s narrowed eyes bore into him.
“Your mother asked me not to tell you,” he quickly explained. “She said if you knew, you probably wouldn’t let her come.”
Kasser couldn’t resist the sincere wish in Dana’s heart to stay by Eugene’s side until giving birth. Moreover, he worried that Eugene might feel lonely after returning to the kingdom so soon after a brief reunion with her family. Allowing Eugene’s mother to be with her until childbirth would bring him considerable relief.
Kasser silently empathized with Dana’s covert plan to pleasantly surprise Eugene.
