Chapitre 294: Leaving

  After he helped her stand up the Christmas tree, she started decorating it, and currently, Kal was playing with his toys and throwing a few things in Terrence's direction. He only watched him for a while and then he decided to help his wife. 

"Love," he said softly. 

"Hmm?" She looked up at him. 

"I~I need to go back to the mainland." 

  She froze and frowned at him. 

"What?" 

"I'm sorry. They needed me. It's quite chaotic there and," 

"For how long?" She asked. 

"I don't know." He hugged her and kissed her cheeks. "Don't worry. You will be guarded in this house and you know how to drive." 

"Yes, I know." 

"And the caretaker of the house is here but then," He shook his head. "I trust no one but the dogs." 

"Okay," She sighed as she turned to Kal who was trying to reach the dog's muzzle. "Don't take long. I don't want to spend Christmas without you."
