Chapter 469 - 469 The Hometown I Can’t Return To



It was a sunny day today.

It was as if the weather had suddenly brightened after one’s mood lifted.

With my father’s and my persuasion, my mother finally agreed to move out of the accompanying room.

“The child needs a quiet environment now,” I said. “I’ve even withdrawn the unnecessary medical staff, leaving only Master Kevin, Professor Lester, and Jeff. I promise you that the child will be safe and sound. If you miss him, you can come to see him at any time. But you must ensure your health, okay? The child misses his grandmother very much. If you are down because of an illness, the child and we will all be sad.”

Before her beloved grandson, my mother gave in easily.

Other than that, there was one more thing.

Carey came to me through her servant. She said that she had already considered it.

Coming to my guest room again, Carey was still ill at ease, but her anxiety and fear had mostly dissipated.

She handed me the document, which she had already signed.

“Your offer is very good... It’s more like it’s too generous, I have no reason to refuse.” She said, “There’s only one thing. You said you would give me a real estate in my hometown... Can I change that?”

I didn’t ask her for a reason. This sad girl needed someone to respect her secret.

“Of course, you can. Where do you want to go?”

Carey smiled shyly and clenched her hands, not knowing what to do. After a while, she whispered, “Perhaps... The Spring Rain Pack?”

“The Spring Rain Pack?” This was beyond my expectations.

“Yes, I think the Spring Rain Pack is good. Carey seemed afraid I would disagree, so she quickly explained, “I’ve heard about the bold and decisive reforms you made in the Spring Rain Pack. Sometimes, in the Evaria Family, the housekeepers who care for me secretly gossip... I admire what you’ve done. You broke through tradition and turned a poor border town into a new city in just a year. If, if...”

Carey lowered her head in disappointment. “It would be great if my hometown could be like that, but... It’s not a good place. I don’t have any precious memories there and don’t want to return there.”

She smiled in embarrassment, looking uglier than crying. “After this child is born, I want to start a new life and cut off my past completely, even if it’s my hometown... If there’s nothing to reminisce about, it can’t be considered home.”

I agreed to her request. The Spring Rain Pack was under my sphere of influence, so it would be better for me to protect Carey from the Evaria Family.

Lester handed me Carey’s medical report and said, “Miss Carey’s current physical condition is very good, and the child’s condition is also stable. The expected date of delivery is in the middle of November. During this period, we will do our best to ensure Miss Carey’s and the child’s health.”

“Thank you,” Carey said softly.

I hoped this girl could get rid of the shadow of the past as soon as possible and at least have a good sleep in the palace, so I tried to talk to her about some common topics.

“Are you used to living here? The bad thing about the palace is that it’s too big and empty. If you feel lonely, you can go to the game room or walk in the garden.”

“I’m living very well,” Carey replied softly. “I can’t live better. The servants are very good people and often chat with me to relieve my boredom. I don’t feel bored at all.”

“That’s good.” I was relieved. “You can relax here. I’ve forbidden the Evaria Family from entering the palace. Those b*stards won’t disturb you again, I promise.”

“Thank you, Your Highness. I’ll come out more often to bask in the sun. I heard this is good for the child... and the pregnant woman.”

“Yes, my dear, nothing is more important than health.” I couldn’t help but sigh when I thought of my relatives who had fallen sick one after another in the past few days.

I didn’t ask Carey to stay for lunch. She would be so nervous that she wouldn’t even be able to hold her spoon properly. Seeing her discomfort, I had someone send her back to her residence.

As soon as Carey left, Master Kevin came.

“Something happened to His Highness an hour ago.” He handed me a report. “I think you need to take a look.”

Even without looking at the report, I could guess what had happened to the child. These were just like data from a USB drive. As ‘Selma’ and ‘Madeline’ fused, they were naturally transmitted into my brain.

The child had ‘evolved’ into a cocoon, just like a larva that had undergone the initial preparation stage and finally wrapped itself in a soft silk cocoon, officially beginning to move on to the next stage of life.

This ‘cocoon’ wasn’t the same ‘cocoon’. In fact, it didn’t have any similarities with a cocoon. It was about the size of two ostrich eggs. It was furry and warm to the touch, like the fur of some animal – wolf fur.

The cocoon looked more like an ‘egg’. It lay quietly in the thermal box and trembled slightly as if it was breathing.

In just one night, the child had undergone such rapid changes. I couldn’t help but sigh at the wonders of life.
