Chapitre 64: CHAPTER 64
"Sir!"
"Sir!" Summon a maid at the Charlotte residence. He rushed to meet Duke Charlotte.
"What is it?" asked Duke Charlotte in his study. He is seen holding a Gold mine ownership document that Ronal gave as Mia's engagement dowry.
"Miss Mia came to visit," said the waiter.
David frowned. "Isn't he with Lord Ronal in the Azruth Empire?" David muttered.
"M-Miss Mia is with Empress Gabby," said the maid in a panic. David looks confused by the arrival of Gabby, who Mia brought. "Where are they?" David asked.
"In the Gazebo near the park, sir."
David immediately rushed to meet his two daughters. I don't know if Gabby still thinks of him as her father. He could only hope. David saw two beautiful girls, none other than his daughter sitting waiting for him.
From a distance, he saw Gabby's changes were so significant. Very different from previous years. His heart was beating fast, even though he was the birth father of Empress Gabby, but for some reason, there seemed to be a thick wall blocking them. David sat between Mia and Gabby. He has seen on the table a document that looks important.
"How are you Ella?" David said openly. There was silence for a moment. Only the clinking of teacups could be heard. "Dad..." Mia said quietly. She couldn't lift her head to look at Gabby or David.
David turned to Mia. "Mia why are you here?" said David. "What about Mr. Ronald?" continued David.
"How many?" Gabby opened her soft voice. I don't know why the atmosphere became tense. David frowned and turned to Gabby. "What?" David asked, confused.
"How much did you get by selling Mia?" Gabby said calmly.
David swallowed. "What do you mean Ella? I don't sell Mia." David denied Gabby's words.
"Mia," Gabby said, glancing at Mia. "Father, I don't want to marry Mr. Ronal", Mia dared to speak.
"What did you say Mia?" David said, raising his voice. "Master Ronal already…."
"Buy it", Gabie interjected, making David speechless. "Don't you know that your daughter has been harassed by the man who will be engaged to Mia?" Connect Gabby.
"Impossible," replied David in disbelief.
"You only care about what the man gave you so you don't know the fate of your daughter in another country," said Gabby. It was like a thousand needles being stabbed into David's heart hearing Gabby speak formally to David.
Gabby shifted the documents on the table closer to David. "Take it," said Gabby.
David took the scroll and opened it. David's eyes widened when he saw the document's contents were the rights to mine diamonds and several other precious stones. "I've changed ownership to the Charlotte family name. Even though she's your daughter, don't ever bother Mia," said Gabby.
"I can't, Ella. What about the Redrick?" David is afraid that the Redricks will harass him for unilaterally calling off the engagement. "You made the engagement unilaterally, so you also have to take it at your own risk," said Gabby.
"Take the document and never appear in front of me or Mia," continued Gabby. David's heart was squeezed when he heard Gabby's words.
"Father can't stay away from you guys. Can we not stay away from each other?" pleaded David pitifully. Gabby stared into David's eyes, a look of regret in David's eyes. "If that's what you want, I hope you understand what I mean. Let Mia marry the man of her choice," said Gabby. "Okay. But what about…" cut off David's words.
"You don't have to worry. Mia is under my protection," Gabby interrupted. David stared at Gabby silently.
His daughter, whom he had often alienated, ignored and even hated him. Now a respected Empress of the Empire. A change from a more graceful and generous demeanour to a more stunning physique. David had wasted his daughter. Regret always comes last.
"Ella, won't you forgive me?" David said pitifully. "There's no need to apologize. You never do anything wrong. I hope you understand what I'm saying and don't try to annoy me." Gabby stood up.
She walked away, leaving those who were still sitting. Mia also stood up and followed Gabby, who had climbed into the horse carriage. David lowered his head in silence. Only a few servants there witnessed Duke Charllote shed tears of regret. Gabby was already in the carriage, and all the way, she kept looking out the window. She didn't feel his tears flowing, and her heart felt very crushed because she obeyed his high ego. Mia turned slightly to look at Gabby. She was a little sad to see Gabby crying silently. Mia hugged Gabby from the side, and Mia even cried in Gabby's arms.

"I love you, Hana" Hana was surprised to hear Joan's words. She was silent, and she didn't know what to answer to Joan's feelings.
"I will accept Sylvia as my daughter. I will make you both happy," said Joan looking firm and full of hope.
"S-since when did Master like me?"
"A long time ago, did you forget about our childhood? In the past, Emilio and I often visited the Onyx Kingdom," said Joan.
Hannah tried to remember. She wakes up to her memories from when she was a child. Yes, where he had played with Princess Tiana, Prince Emilio and Joan in the garden of the Onyx Royal Palace. She lowered her head.
"S-sir", Hana felt her throat constrict to speak. "I-I don't deserve you."
"No, Hannah, you are so deserving! You deserve to be happy again. Do you still love him?" Hana is silent, and she still loves her lover, a Demi-Human. Even though her lover is dead, she closes her heart to anyone because she is no longer worthy of a human, let alone an important person like Joan.
"Can I replace him? I know you love him very much. But at least think about Sylvia's future. She needs protection from a father. I will take care of you, I promise. Please open your heart for me, Hana" Joan held both of Hana's hands. Hana was crying, and she felt that she didn't deserve to be with Joan.
She looked at Joan, her eyes hot and teary. She didn't know what to say. Joan kissed the back of Hana's hands gently and lovingly. "I used to give in because I couldn't force you, Hana. You look happy with him. After discovering what happened to you, I tried to find you. Luck was on my side when I saw you with Her Majesty. Please let me love you and Sylvia. My promise is to make you happy. I want to see your beautiful smile that used to radiate often." Hana was still silent, her body shaking. Hana still looked at Joan's eyes which were full of tenderness. Hana nodded slowly, approving Joan.
Joan, who saw Hana nodded even though she was shaking. "Really, Hana" once again, Han nodded slowly. Joan couldn't hide his happy smile. He immediately pulled her into his arms. Hana didn't refuse even though her body was shaking.
Joan, who felt Hana's body shaking with fear, gently stroked Hana's head. He let go of her hand and kissed her forehead. "I will propose to you. Just wait. I have to inform Her Majesty first," said Joan seeing that Hana had started to calm down.
"Would Your Majesty want…"
"Shhh..." Joan put her index finger on Hana's lips, signalling not to continue talking. "You don't have to worry." Hana nodded her head. Once again, Joan hugged Hana tightly.
Hana has been Joan's idol since childhood. He feels happy now that his idol will now be his. From a long time ago, he, who was only a guard for the prince, could only love Hana, a royal princess, secretly without anyone's knowledge. His heart was so happy and excited because he had got his idol. He promised himself to love and love her with all his heart. He doesn't want to lose Hana anymore
