Chapter 481: Through The Admiral’s Eyes
Time passed, and an hour later, the door creaked open as Adam stepped out. Sitting on a log on the ground, Helen rose to her feet, while Damon, standing vigilantly, turned to the admiral.
"She has awakened and is calling for you. Come in," Adam said to the governess.
Helen rushed forward, and the admiral stepped aside to let her enter.
Damon followed, requesting, "Can I come in too? She must be startled to see you upon waking and might become afraid. I need to ensure she’s all right."
Adam nodded in acknowledgement. As Damon had assumed, Anna was indeed shocked to find the admiral in the room when she regained consciousness.
Luckily, he managed to reassure her that he wouldn’t harm her before she could scream, and when she demanded Helen, he quickly acquiesced to the lady’s request.
Inside, the governess was already at Anna’s bedside, calming her. As soon as the princess saw Adam again, her trembling intensified, and fear was evident in her eyes.
Though she had never met the admiral in person, she had seen him at Port Braska when Kyren departed for his mission to Agathe Islands.
"Admiral James, please! Don’t hurt me or my baby!" Anna pleaded as the admiral approached her.
"I’m right here, my lady. I won’t allow anyone to harm you," Damon reassured her, standing close to Anna.
"I told you already, I’m not here to hurt anyone," Adam replied. "You need to calm down."
