He Will Never Release Chester
Beocca didn’t argue but instead lead her outside. He soon drop her at her house and then she walked inside the building.
Once she entered the room, she began to carry her heavy legs towards where the children’s room are. The way she was walking was so sluggish like someone who had lost all hopes. It’s just that she felt like her battles are too much. Is it too much for her to experience her father’s love at least? Even her godfather, Miguel Marcola who is brutal to many of his slaves was so nice to her so why is her biological father so ruthless to her.
She didn’t even have any family who genuinely loves and cares for her except for her children and her uncle.
“What’s wrong?”
She jerked at the voice that suddenly spoke in the house. She wasn’t expecting anyone in the house. She quickly eye searched the room, seeing Ragnar Marshall standing and leaning by a corner, she let out a sigh.
“Sir…”
Ragnar Marshall stood upright and walked up to her, “where are you coming from in this middle of the night?”
“From the training arena, sir.” She answered truthfully.Content is © by NôvelDrama.Org.
“I can see that it’s Beocca that dropped you. Why would he drop you in the middle of the night?” He asked as if he was suspecting something.
“I was the one who asked him to drop me. He suggested that we wait till the following morning but I refused,” she said.
“Are you keeping an affair with Beocca?”
“What!” She screamed in shock, “why would I?” She almost confessed that Beocca is her uncle but she remembered Beocca telling her never to reveal the type of relationship between them. “He’s very older than me.”
Seeing that he still didn’t seem to believe her, she said, “my father told me to come and collect my mother’s album, I predict that he may want to set me up so I told Beocca to escort me and he did. Truthfully, my father tried to drug me to sleep so he can forcefully take me to Maridonna but thanks to Beoocca who saved me and brought me to the training arena.”
“Why do I still think there is something more to the relationship between you and Beocca?” Ragnar Marshall asked, “I see you guys often these days.”
“I’m not that type of woman, sir. I’m not a slut.” She said.
“I’ll like to believe that,” he said. “Cause I’ve kept my words and remained faithful to this marriage. I won’t want to find out that you aren’t even faithful to the marriage.”
“Trust me, sir. Beocca is just my trainer and nothing more,” she answered. She didn’t know how else to describe Beocca to him.
“Why do you seem very sad?”
“I was just tired of everything, particularly my father, I don’t understand why he just never likes me. He will even choose a stranger over me.”
“Maybe he’s not your father,” Ragnar Marshall guessed.
“He is, sir. He just hates me, perhaps my mom did something that hurts him before she died. I really can’t tell, sir.” She said.
“I can see that your kids chose a room each for their own,” Ragnar Marshall said.
She nodded and said, “sir, aren’t you pleased with that?”
“I don’t have any problem with it.” He said, “you may go to sleep.”
“Sir, since you are here, we can just spend the night together.”
“I thought you may be want to alone. Since you have a lot on your mind,” Ragnar Marshall said.
“No, sir. Instead, I’ll like to have someone I can pour all my troubles on,” she said and Ragnar Marshall smiled briefly.
“Okay, come with me,” he said.
“Please let me check on my kids, sir.” She said.
“They are fine, I already checked but you may go ahead and confirm,” Ragnar Marshall said and watched as she walked to each of the kid’s room, checking on them. Motherhood is really tasky, he thought to himself. She can’t imagine how burdened she will be as a result of Chester’s absence.
Brigitta soon came back to him, “thank you for waiting, sir. They are all asleep.”
“Okay.” Then he lead her to the master room. “So this will be my room. I’ll lodge here whenever I come.”
He said after she had sat, he sat well on the bed and said, “our spies at Maridonna are given us greenlight.”
Brigitta turned to her and said, “sir, it’s time to wage war against them, right?”
“Yes, but what you must understand is that the fight is not between two countries, it’s between a kingdom and an individual. I’ll be the one fighting with Maridonna.”
“Which makes it risky,” he added. “I don’t have any problem with Maridonna, I do however have problem with those they are protecting. I have wrote a letter to them to just let me have the heads of the five Lords of the Wigglesworth’s family and these needless war would be avoided. I gave them three days untimatum to respond.” Ragnar Marshall said.
“Oh, alright, sir. I hope they can come to this agreement. They give us the head of the five lords and of course Chester and everything can be go back to being normal.” Brigitta said while he only nodded.
“Come and lay beside me, “Ragnar Marshall laid and said. She went to lay beside him and curled her body around him, it was so refreshing. Her burden felt light and her head on his chest made it feel like she was in the safest place in the world.
About a couple of days later, while Brigitta was in her office, Ottar walked in at her permission and handed over a letter to her, “it came from Maridonna this morning.”
“Oh okay, thank you,” she thanked him.
“If there is anything urgent in the letter, don’t hesitate to inform Mr. Ragnar as soon as possible,” Ottar said.
“Alright, thank you.” She said and watched as he walked away.
She sighed nervously and she unsealed the letter, she then began to read. In the letter, Guthred had said that he wouldn’t forgive her for slapping him and that she can forget about Chester. He also added that no matter what she does, he will never release Chester.”
Her heart sunk into an abyss, it became so sour that tears rushed down her face. Apparently, he didn’t accept her apology. Her heart ached badly. She needs to inform Ragnar Marshall.
