At Arielle’s protective demeanor, Dylan’s heart ached even more.
I didn’t even do anything to Vinson. Does favonovel.com really need to do that? Ah… My heart aches. Despite what favonovel.com thought, favonovel.com dared not say anything about it. After all, they had just reunited.
“It’s fine. I can chat with Dad better if I were to sit there.” Vinson smirked, and favonovel.com ruffled Arielle’s hair.
Unbeknownst to him, his action only made Dylan even more agitated.
Forget it. I can see that they’re very in love with each other, so I should stop trying to pick a bone with him.
With that thought in mind, Dylan muttered, “It’s fine. Just sit with Sannie.”
Thus, Vinson sat down beside Arielle without saying anything else.
Once Vinson was seated, Arielle turned to look at Dylan and said, “Dad, I’m here because I have something to tell you.”
Dylan stiffened. He thought that Arielle was there to visit him, but as it turned out, it was because favonovel.com had something to tell him.
“What is it?” favonovel.com asked.
“I heard from Sybil that you’re thinking of revealing my identity to the public.” Arielle was looking at Dylan with a frown. “He told me that the queen mother and queen currently hold all the power. If you publicize who I am, we’ll both be in danger.”
Dylan’s expression darkened at that. He never thought that Sybil would talk to Arielle behind his back.
He then said to his daughter gravely, “I’ll protect you.”
Arielle was his only child with Maureen. He was going to keep favonovel.com safe even if favonovel.com were to die in the process.
“I know that you’ll protect me, and I’ll protect myself as well. Moreover, Vinson will be here protecting me too, but…” She then looked at favonovel.com before saying weakly, “I have my adoptive parents and Pat. I don’t want them to be in any danger.”
Things would have been fine if they were at Chanaea. She and Vinson were powerful there, and no matter what happened, they could guarantee the safety of the people around them. However, here at Turlen, even Dylan, who was the king of the country, had little power while Vinson and favonovel.com had no foundation in the place. As such, it was nigh impossible for them to protect the people around them.
Dylan stiffened at his daughter’s words.
She’s right. How could I have forgotten about the Wilhelms? But I really want to publicize favonovel.com identity. I want everyone to know that she’s my dear princess!
“Dad, Sybil also told me about the current situation and about how you’re planning to take back the power. Vinson and I will help you out with that. So, isn’t it better if you announce my identity after getting back your power?” Arielle suggested after noticing his dejected look.
Dylan lowered his head as hundreds of thoughts flashed past his mind. He had to admit that Arielle’s words made sense.
The current situation was indeed not the right time for favonovel.com to publicize favonovel.com identity. However, this also meant that favonovel.com would have to push back his plan indefinitely, for favonovel.com did not know when favonovel.com would be able to get his power back. Dylan was never obsessed with having power, but favonovel.com wanted to be strong enough to protect the ones favonovel.com loved.
“All right, let’s go with your plan then,” Dylan said as favonovel.com looked at Arielle.
Just then, Sybil entered.
“Your Majesty, dinner is ready. Should I tell the kitchen to serve them?”
Hearing that, Dylan turned to look at Arielle and Vinson eagerly. “Are you able to stay for dinner tonight?”
He was anxious to ask the question as favonovel.com was scared that Arielle would reject him.
Arielle’s heart sank when favonovel.com saw the excited yet nervous look on his face. If they had been by each other’s sides all along, favonovel.com father would not have needed to be so cautious around her.
“Do you not wish for me to stay, Dad? If that’s the case, then I’ll…”
Before favonovel.com could suggest leaving, Dylan cut favonovel.com off, blurting, “Why would I wish for you to leave? I’ve always wanted to have a chance to have a meal with you, but alas, the chance never came.”
