"Damn!! What should we do?" Louis asked in a hurry as he looked around to find one or another way to hide. Imdiately, his eyes zood on the restrooms. For now, it is the only option. "Brina, co with " he said, as he quickly wrapped his arm.around her wrist and pulled her into the only restroom. At the sa ti, Luke pulled Hailey with him into the other table and tried his best not to get noticed. It is because The King and Queen know Hailey and there are chances they might recognize her though she is in disguise. Moreover, her disguise is not so great that it could conceal her real face. As for Ethan, Harry, they have no option. This stall is small and hiding themselves is impossible. "Ethan, are we going to get caught?" Natalie asked as she squeezed his hand in tension. "Most probably, we might, hon. However, let’s try to not get noticed" he said as he tried his best not to get noticed. anwhile, The King and Queen ca hand in hand as they, unfortunately, sat right in the opposite table. "Our luck sucks" Ethan whispered. anwhile, a few minutes passed. Ethan and others were sitting tight, as they held their breath. It was as if they were trying to beco invisible. Situation was no good for Louis and Brina too. They are standing in a small restroom, packed together. Louis is feeling very suffocated, surprisingly, it is because his little brother is awake. He doesn’t want Brina to know what he is thinking. Various kinky ideas are running in his mind because of this extrely close proximity. .... "Sir, you haven’t ordered anything yet" a waiter spoke loudly as he walked to Ethan’s table. The whole place was etched with silence and the sudden sound was enough to attract enough attention. As it’s the sudden reflex action everyone does, his parents have also turned their heads towards the source of the sound. After seeing the familiar eyes and face cut, King Edgar froze. How could he not recognise his own son? How much ever Ethan disguised himself, as his father and soone who has already seen him in various types of incognito acts, King Edgar could right away recognize him. "Ethan!" he couldn’t help but call out loud. He..he didn’t expect this. Not at all. He never thought he would see his elder son in this Kingdom. anwhile, Queen Elora, who was still in a dilemma, froze. Is..is it Ethan? Is he really her son? Tears imdiately glistened her eyes. Though she is their step mother, she never felt like that. Ethan and Edward are her son’s. She never treated them as their step children in the first place because right from the day both were born, she has been their Godmother. anwhile, Ethan was no less emotional than his parents. And, it is too late to even pretend that he doesn’t know them. His eyes would have already given away! King Edgar noticed the unfathomable emotions on Ethan’s face and confird that it is indeed his elder son who left his family and Kingdom. He stood up and slowly walked towards him, while his eyes never left Ethan’s face. As if in sync, Ethan stood up too. He missed his parents a lot and he couldn’t forget the help they provided him in these few days. If it was soone other than his understanding parents, they would have surely sent people after him for what he has done. He indirectly disrespected his country and embarrassed the Royal family. It has happened a few tis in the past. So of his ancestors gave up their position and left the Royal family. However, they have faced consequences. But in his case, as a king, his father didn’t allow anything of such sort to happen to him. He took the bla silently and at the sa ti, he tried his level best to protect him. For that, Ethan is always grateful to his parents and siblings. "Is it really you, Ethan?" King Edgar asked him, his voice hoarse. Ethan nodded his head. However, he couldn’t utter even a word. He was that emotional. Though he felt like eting them, making a call to them, he couldn’t muster up his courage. Moreover, his wife was not yet ready to et her in law’s. She was under therapy. "Oh, son! I missed you" King Edgar said, pulling him into a hug. "I missed you too dad. I am sorry" Ethan said, as he leaned into his father’s embrace. A tear rolled down his cheek, wetting his father’s shirt. anwhile, Elora walked to her son and husband, as she flashed a friendly smile to Natalie, Harry and Rhianna who were looking at them silently. "How are you, mom?" Ethan asked, as he hugged her. "I am good, son. I am happy you ca back" she said as he caressed his cheek like she usually does. No one would even predict that they are not bound by blood, after seeing the emotional attachnt they have. Ethan smiled at both of them and shifted his eyes to his wife who was smiling. He took her hand and gently pulled her into his arms. "Mom, dad, I never introduced you to the love of my life. I never dared to, because of the circumstances." Ethan said, pursing his lips when he rembered how bad his father health had been and how Olivia used to torture for more love and attention. Those were very bad days. "et Natalie, my wife.... your, daughter in law" Ethan said, his voice dipped with love. As for Natalie, she could only force a smile. She is dead nervous right now, after all, these people are not only her in law’s but also the King and the Queen of this powerful Kingdom. The weight they held freaked her out. She had seen so many movies in which these people of the Royal family would act like angels and accept a commoner as daughter in law. However, the other side of the coin would be too dark to predict. anwhile, King Edgar and Queen Elora noticed how nervous Ethan’s wife is. They could see her forehead sweating profusely. Moreover, they are also aware of her condition. They knew what this poor girl had been through for their son. King Edgar smiled and patted her head in fatherly manner. "You don’t have to be nervous, daughter. We don’t bla you for what happened" he said, as if he had read her mind just now. "As Ethan’s parents, we prioritize his happiness over anything. To be frank we felt pity for both of you. You both have suffered a lot, sacrificed a lot in order to get together." Queen Elora said as she smiled at Natalie. "So, all we hope is for your happiness. Moreover, I strongly believe that this happened for your own good. Without you, Ethan would not have lived happily and it would have definitely affected his ruling ability and would have also weakened him, in turn weakening the whole Kingdom." "Even if you were depressed. If Ethan wouldn’t have taken that brave step, I think no one would have been this happy. So, there is nothing for you to feel guilty all right" King Edgar told Natalie who has tears in her eyes. She could sense the sincerity in their words. She knew they ant what they said. So, after hearing them, the last ounce of heaviness that was dwelling in her heart, started vanishing. At last, she felt free of everything. Though Ethan bane back to her, she knows that he paid a heavy price in order to do that. He lost his family. He lost his power and also a place in the Royal family, which is not a simple thing. However, for him, power was not so important as his love. What used to trouble him more, is the guilt of leaving his parents and imposing pressure on his brother. Now, Ethan is free of that guilt. Which indirectly made her happy and relieved. anwhile, Ethan smiled. For the first ti in these few days, his smile reached till his eyes. "Thanks mom. Thank dad. You don’t know how much it ant to and Natalie. Thanks for understanding us and respecting our love. Thanks for accepting us back" Ethan gratefully thanked them, as he hugged his parents. King Edgar and Queen Elora smiled, with tears brimd in their eyes. To be honest, they have always placed their family above everything. So, accepting Natalie was no big deal for them. The part of the reason for it is because King Edgar knows the importance of love in marriage. He had seen how his father and mother Greta used to quarrel every ti. Most of their life was a lie. For the people, they were an ideal couple. However, in reality, there used to be no single day they didn’t fight. King Edgar never felt parental love and only he knew how much he had craved for a happy family with love and affections. That is the reason he didn’t compromise when selecting his wife’s. Though he knew Elora would not make an ideal Queen, he was sure that she would treat his son’s as her own children. It was because she is his wife’s best friend, to be more precise, she was like a sister to her. And, in addition to it, she was their God mother. So, he has secretly done many things to make sure she will reach the top two. And, she never disappointed him. They are indeed a happy family with lots of love among them. Likewise, he didn’t expect his children to go through what he went through. If Ethan would have told him about his love, nothing would have gotten aggravated to this level. And, when it cos to his second son, Edward, he thought that Charlotte and his son are in love. They were that close. So, to stop soone from entering his son’s life by a court marriage, he went to House Landon personally and made the alliance. Even when Edward was crowned, King Edgar thought that Charlotte would co back to his son and no bride selection would happen. However, it turned out Edward never had a thing for Charlotte. So, all he could do now is pray to God that his son will fall in love with one of the ladies and marry her. That is his deepest wish now. He wants Edward to have a loving wife rather than a perfect, ideal Queen as his wife. anwhile, Ethan just rembered that his little brother and his girlfriend Brina are now stuck in the restroom. "Dad, how about we talk sowhere else? Sowhere private? I still have to introduce you to my friends" Ethan told them. King Edgar shook his head. "You are not going back! You all have to stay here at least for a few days, son. So, you all are coming back to the Palace" King Edgar said, his eyes pleading to his son. He indeed missed him a lot. "Dad, let’s talk about it sowhere. Let’s go to so good restaurants here first. And Then, we can talk about it" Ethan said. Moreover, he is adamant to help Brina. He has to help her pull out a thorn nad Olivia. And, he knows how to do it.
