The next morning, Fire and Fair woke up much earlier than usual just to be sure they're awake and present when their parents leave.
In fact, they even came to the landing site with their uncles to send their parents off.
What they're able to hear last night made them understand that they shouldn't create unnecessary problems so even the naughty and spoiled Baelfair was obediently listening to their parent's words.
Uncle Bien who asked for a sparring wasn't able to come home to the castle for almost a week too because of a sudden problem in his force and he was only able to attend the despedida dinner for Rawlf and Veronica last night.
Before he left for his based last night, he especially approached Rawlf and said, "We will have much opportunities to spar in the future, I'm not that really impatient." Rawlf smirked and nodded to the man.
His face showed his gratefulness and respect. After all, the large, walking muscle in front of him
was the man who saved his beloved woman's life and their children when he wasn't around for them.
"I am forever indebted to you, uncle."
"There's no debt between families. I may be a coarse man and I couldn't call myself a good person either but I always value family over others and will always protect them at all cost. Therefore I hope you won't disappoint this old man."
Rawlf offered his hand first for a handshake.
Uncle Bien was shocked, very, very shocked because he knew really well who the man in front of him was and especially his reputation.
Uncle Bien laughed loudly and accepted the hand-shake.
"How filial!" He laughed out loud and turned to Veronica, "Uncle Bien supports!" Then he made two thumbs up.
Veronica talked for the last time with the twins before boarding the private plane with moist eyes.
Rawlf enveloped the twins in his embrace before kissing each of their cheeks and putting them back inside the limousine.
"Mom and Dad will be back soon. Be good towards your grandmas and grandpas." Rawlf reminded them and the twins nodded.
Strangely, they didn't said any goodbye words. They just kept nodding their head obediently. Rawlf ruffle their hair once more and nodded to Edcel and Justine since Edward would be coming back with them and walked to follow Veronica inside the plane.
Rawlf saw her looking out the window towards the car. Sensing his presence, he heard her say, "I miss them already."
He approached and sat beside her. He pulled her to his embrace.
"Stop looking anymore. You might not be able to control yourself and instead stay with them and just let me handle things. I could, I don't mind. But I could no longer bear not having any of you around me. I'm sorry for being selfish."
Veronica's mood lightens up after hearing this from him.
"Idiot. I'm not a delicate flower that needs protecting. We are in this together. For our cubs." "For our cubs." Rawlf replied and with a playful tone continued,
"And for our future cubs."
"Heh!" Veronica slapped his chest that made Rawlf laugh loudly.
Edward made the right choice to stay in the pilot cabin and accompany the line pilot there. After all, he could lend a hand if something happened. Because if he was able to witness this scene from the couple, he would surely sulk for being made into an unnecessary light bulb.
Country P.
Secretary Ryan fetched his master and lady boss from the Sy International private landing site and directly drove them back to the Dragon Mansion.
When Secretary Ryan stopped the car engine, Veronica opened her eyes and started stretching her arms and shoulders when she noticed a car beside the gate of the mansion.
"Are you expecting a visitor?" Rawlf looked outside.
"No." He frowned and got out of the car first, Veronica followed and so Edward from the
passenger seat.
Butler Ro, who knew of their arrival, was already waiting outside.
"Someone came over?" Veronica asked the butler after responding to his welcome greeting.
"Yes, young madam. Miss Cang arrived just a while ago and said that she wanted to visit the young master and young miss."
Veronica frowned. 'To visit her children?'
Since when did she become closely acquainted with the woman for her to pay her children a visit?
"And what did you tell her?" Butler Ro smiled.
"Just as what you told us before you left, young madam. I told her that you brought a young master and young miss for a vacation."
Rawlf this time frowned. "And why is she still inside?" Butler Ro this time, scratched his shiny bald head.
"Miss Cang asked for a glass of water so I let her in to not embarrass the young master and young madam of basic courtesy from its own people.
Veronica nodded and clutch Rawlf's hand telling him to understand it as well. If it's other people, the butler may not even give them any chance to ask for a glass of water but since he is in front of the daughter of Country P's President, Butler Ro felt the need to show her the Dragon mansion's courtesy.
"Thank you Butler Ro. I'll deal with it. Please take care of our luggage now."
Butler Ro bowed his head towards his masters, his eyes showing a glint of gratefulness for his young madam.
Indeed, a home is sweet and light when there's a virtuous madam to pacify their master.
"What a lovely morning." Butler Ro uttered in a very gentlemanly way before tasking some staff to bring their masters' luggage inside the house.
