Chapter 1229 - 1229 1216 I Am Your Mother

Chapter 1229: Chapter 1216: I Am Your Mother Chapter 1229: Chapter 1216: I Am Your Mother “Of course, I am your father, but I am also the head of the Frankel Family, a duke of the Empire. I can’t just consider you alone.”

“So you’re planning on selling me out, right?” Already understanding what her father intended to do, Areina’s tone became very unpleasant.

Although she knew she was born into such a clan, expecting to experience the warmth of blood relatives was a luxury. But she yearned for these things that were so common for ordinary people.

Thus, while she had been happy to see her father take great action to ensure her safety, now she was equally disappointed to see her father weigh interests and demand her to endure this.

“What do you mean selling out? Whom have I sold you to?” The Duke, noticing the change in his daughter’s mood, rubbed his brow, his expression showing a great change, revealing a sense of helplessness.

“A child with an unknown origin suddenly wants to recognize me as mother; because he showed great strength, you want me to endure the crisis that may come at any moment, right?”

Even though Muria and Areina had lived peacefully over the past dozen days, the girl still couldn’t trust Muria and kept a very wary heart toward him.

“Haven’t you been getting along all this time? He hasn’t done anything to you during this period, so naturally, he won’t do anything in the future.

Moreover, on the contrary, with him by your side, you’ll be safer. I can withdraw the knights guarding around you, which allows me to do more.”

“Yes, with Mu by my side, the outside world will think the Frankel Family has another near-godly powerhouse. Even if he does nothing, you can expand the clan’s interests.”

“Yes, this is all for the clan, so I hope you can bear with it for a while.”

Between the identity of clan head and father, the man chose the clan head. Because compared to the benefits the clan was about to gain, the sacrifices his daughter was making were nothing at all.

“Have you ever thought about me? I’m just a sixteen-year-old girl, and now suddenly a seven or eight-year-old son has appeared. How will the outside world view me? And how will it view the Frankel Family?”

“I know that such things will inevitably cause some gossip, but these are not serious. Over time, they will disappear.”

“But the benefits you gain will not disappear.”

“I know you will resent me for this, but I believe you can understand that I am the head of the Frankels. I am responsible for nearly ten thousand people in the entire family.

When the clan’s interests are not involved, I can do anything for you, but in this matter, I can only wrong you. Sorry!”

…

“Still angry with your father? There’s no need. This is the choice that every qualified ruler would make. You have grown up like this, being sacrificed by him several times, haven’t you gotten used to it yet?”

In the manor full of fragrant grass and blooming flowers, where birds chirped and flowers exuded sweet scents, Muria admired the beautiful scenery before him, then turned around and spoke to the girl sitting on the roof.

“You’re right, my father is a qualified ruler. I shouldn’t hold any expectations of him.”

Sitting on the low roof of the wooden house, her hands wrapped around her slender legs, the girl with her chin resting on her knees spoke in a muffled tone.

“Also, you have no need to worry about me doing anything to you. I will only protect you, keep you unharmed from any harm outside. So you can rest assured.”

“Ha!” Hearing Muria’s words, the blonde girl sneered twice, “Do you think I have forgotten the scene when we first met? That monster on your shoulder, injuring me, nearly suffocating me with Death Qi, do you think I will forget that?”

“Ahem,” Muria coughed into his fist below his mouth,” That was an accident. Something like that won’t happen a second time, rest assured.”

“There’s a second time?”

“No, not anymore.”

“What exactly is going on here? Don’t pretend I’m blind, I saw everything, that monster followed your commands. If you hadn’t wanted it, that monster wouldn’t have hurt me at all.”

“I wanted to try and see if the consciousness of my mother would awaken when you were on the brink of death.”

“And the result of this experiment?”

“Obviously, it failed,” Muria said, spreading her hands in resignation, clearly disappointed by the outcome.

“So, does that prove I’m not the reincarnation of your mother?”

“I told you, I can see, my mother is sleeping within your body.”

“Believe what you want, but with your power, no matter what you want to do to me, it seems likely my clan won’t intervene anymore,” Areina responded gloomily.

She still had no idea about Muria’s identity, and naturally harbored doubts about Muria’s claims. Yet, despite this, her clan had pushed her towards this child, asking her to acknowledge him as her son.

“No matter what I do? Your clan won’t intervene?” Hearing this, Muria’s eyes narrowed, her expression becoming intriguing.

“What do you want to do?” Seeing Muria’s change in demeanor, the girl immediately became vigilant.

“Are you interested in going on a trip with me?” Muria smiled as she extended the invitation to the reincarnation of her mother.

“What?” A huge question mark appeared in the blonde girl’s mind.

“The world is so vast, wouldn’t you like to see it?”

“You want to take me away? To where?”

“Wherever we wish to go,” Muria said, spreading her arms wide, “the sky’s the limit, and the sea is ours to explore.”

“Not interested.” The girl rejected the offer immediately and without hesitation. Only an idiot would run off with a child of dubious origin, yet absurdly powerful.

“You object, huh? Well, never mind, I’m just informing you. If you agree, that’s great; if not… hehe.”

“You’re going to force me again, remember I am your mother,” the girl said with a frown, clearly displeased with Muria’s approach, “Did you also talk to me like this before I was reincarnated?”

“Of course not, I didn’t have the guts then.”

“Yet you’re treating me like this now.”

“It’s because you don’t have any memories now.”

“So it’s my fault!”

“Alright, do you have any unfinished business here? I’ll help you take care of it all. Once you’ve fulfilled all your wishes, you’ll come with me.”

“Hit the road? To do what?”

“To find your partner, my father, and my wife, your daughter-in-law.”

“They’re all having problems? They all reincarnated?”

“That’s right, they’ve all reincarnated! So we must find them quickly, to prevent any accidents.”
