Chapter 82: Gentle Affection
They remained like that for a few minutes, and Arren only remembered that they weren’t the only ones in the room. However, both of them didn’t mind at all that they had shown an intense deep affection for each other in front of others or even his father.
In any case, everyone in the room knew of their relationship, so there was nothing to hide. Still, that wasn’t the case for others, especially the three doctors, as they all had complicated expressions since they ’knew too much’.
After calming down somewhat, Spade, without letting go of his hold on Arren in his arms, shifted his attention to the doctors. Instantly, the three of them became alert and stood straight.
Arren, leaning into Spade’s chest, also stared at the doctors, who all became tense under the gaze of the monarch. He also shifted his gaze toward his father, who was still sitting in his seat and watching everything unfold.
As their eyes met, the Duke only smiled approvingly at him. This time, Arren suddenly became ashamed and averted his gaze with flushed cheeks. Even with how thick his skin was, he always folded when it came to his father sometimes.
"How is Arren’s condition?" Spade asked deeply, his tone serious, which made the doctors stiffen once more.
Arren now focused his attention on the doctors. They seemed to be processing at first, and then the man who only looked in his fifties was the one who answered Spade. It appeared he was the one with the highest status among the three.
"Your Majesty," the man in the center spoke, then he cleared his throat for a moment before continuing and became more professional as he went on. "Young Master Arren’s condition is already stable, and although he still feels weak, that is only because he just woke up. With proper recovery treatment, in no time, the Young Master will recover his strength in a few days," he started, and without his voice breaking, he was a professional after all.
However, Spade didn’t interrupt him—not even with a nod. It seemed the alpha was still concerned with another thing, not just about his recovery but about his real condition, which everyone found unusual except perhaps Arren.
