Eleanora looked back in amusement as she felt Alexander hold her wrist gently.

At first, she thought she heard it wrong but seeing the seriousness of his blue eyes, Eleanora was sure that she didn't heard it wrong.

"Elee?"

Alexander called her again as she didn't replied but his eyes widened in surprise as Eleanora smiled brightly at him.

"Yes, Father!"
