Chapter 475: Adoption
"It’s true that Alwin told us not to go back to Valeria if he’s not yet back but the time we agreed about was a week to a month. And that time is up. I also don’t want anything wrong to happen so I will have Rowan with us along with Riley so we’re not compromising on safety either."
It was because of those magicians who were still roaming around in Eliora.
They had used the humanoid monster as a distraction last time to try and abduct Arabella, but they failed to break the barrier Alwin made.
Ferdinand and Alwin were both wary of those.
"It’s also better to help Duke Olivier now while the situation is not yet that complicated. If something happens to him, you won’t be able to legally adopt that child."
"Adopt?" Arabella tilted her head.
"Weren’t you planning to adopt him from the Duke?"
[I thought that was what she was planning since she looks so fond of that child. I don’t like the idea of having to share her attention with that child but at least he’s already at that age. I heard the ladies would be even more focused on the child if its a newborn. Dimo is alright since she wouldn’t have to pay as much attention to him as when he’s a newborn.]
’Haha. That’s what he’s thinking about. We did talk about not having children yet. Geez. Why would he think I would adopt a child without telling him about it first?’
