章 52: Departure

Morning came, everyone felt refreshed and energized from yesterday's events.

Except for Leon, who felt anxious overnight about leaving the mum and child. He battled through the night, trying to calm himself down and convince himself that his decision was right. 

Still anxious about leaving, Leon silently went out of the bedroom, prepared for the morning, and for his departure. Walking downstairs, he was welcomed with the sweet smell of pancakes from the kitchen and the sound of someone chopping wood. 

Eli and Wisey were busy preparing for breakfast, while Olivier and Baobao had already started constructing the separate quarters.

"Good morning, Leon! Have you rested well?" Eli greeted Leon amicably. 

Last night was not her first time talking to Leon alone, yet she admitted that their conversation made her know the Prince more. She became much more comfortable with Leon as compared to their initial awkward and evasive relationship.
