Chapter 246: Rumors and Urgent Matters

As Jasem and Lord Sami arrived at the grand Emberwood Estate, they were greeted by a line of bowing butlers who promptly opened the door for them. Without wasting a moment, they stepped inside, their presence commanding the attention of the elegant mansion.

"Father, you're finally here!" Lady Lyra exclaimed, her voice filled with joy as she leaped into her father's outstretched arms. Her heart had ached with longing during the weeks she had been away from home, and now, in his embrace, she found solace and comfort.

"Why are you behaving like a child, Lyra? Please, compose yourself," her father gently chided, a hint of concern in his voice. He glanced towards Jasem, one of the esteemed heroes standing in their presence. Worried that Jasem might perceive Lyra as immature, he aimed to guide her towards more appropriate behavior befitting a young lady.
