Chapter 445: Alone

“Your Majesty! Stop this madness, please! I’m begging you!” Jerome placed himself between Everard and the open door and pleaded to the King.

“Argh!” Everard grumbled and looked up at the ceiling, frustrated by how Jerome was being so restrictive.

“Will you just leave me alone? At least at night? Don’t you have to go back to your wife and your children?” he shouted in agitation.

Jerome was still adamant about not letting Everard go out of the castle for a night stroll, not when he knew that Everard’s ulterior motive was to look for Ruby, that also on his own, that too after getting challenged by Alpha Regulus just yesterday night.

“I am simply worried about your safety, Your Majesty. That’s all.” He looked at Everard with a worried look on his face and suggested once again, “If you take your guards along with you, then I will happily return home. But I simply cannot let you leave on your own.”
