Daughter of the Emperor Chapter 374

Chapter 374: The Emperor’s Daughter Chapter. 374

Well... I guessed it was true. I couldn’t say Ferdel didn’t have any influence on .

That thought soothed again.

“Things were better when I was a child.”

“That’s true.”

Ferdel laughed at my grumpy complaint.

“Because a child only has one responsibility, and that was to grow up well. Of course, it’s better.”

Then, looking back at , Ferdel chuckled silently. I was embarrassed by his father-like happy smile, so I turned my eyes away.

Should I say it’s embarrassing?

Yeah, Ferdel always acted like an idiot. Then he would suddenly act like a different person. It’s hard to get used to it, really. Still, I didn’t hate it when he smiled at like that. It’s just that I would be confused about who my father really was when he smiled at like that, and that’s sad.

“... don’t you have a council eting to attend? I heard the secretary say that.”

“Oh, that’s right. There is. I must leave now.”

I asked because I rembered that he said, “I stopped by” on his way to the eting. Ferdel clapped his hands and nodded as if he just rembered.

I nodded to tell him to go away.

Ferdel said he would leave, but he just stayed, standing in the sa place. As I stared at Ferdel, who’s also staring at , he grinned.

‘... why do I feel so anxious?’

“See you next ti, my dear princess. Don’t cry while I’m gone, and make sure to eat your als! Don’t cry because you miss !”

“...”

How co my ominous premonition always turned out wrong?

We’re not parting lovers, nor was he my mom. What was he talking about? As I frowned, Ferdel wiped away his tears and gave a heartbroken look.

“Now then, we must part ways until fate brings us together again.”

What should I say? I asked back seriously.

“How about we let fate end things here and now?”

“Aww!”

“...”

In an instant, a lot of thoughts ca into my mind.

‘What the hell is wrong with this guy?’ ‘Why is he like that?’ ‘Does he have a grudge against ?’ ‘If not, why else would he be like that?’ ‘What’s he aiming at?’

Of course, it was apparent why Ferdel was doing this, but the reality was that I had nothing to say when he did this right in front of my eyes.

Ferdel laughed when he saw my face harden because of the cutesy act of a 40-year-old man. Was he happy now? Was he satisfied? Hmm?

I opened my mouth to say sothing, but a step ahead of , Ferdel jerked out of the room.

“Hehe! See you later, then!”

‘... geez, that rascal.’

“Phew.”
