Although Angus was the adopted son of Aldret, considering Terrence's mood, the queen suggested that Angus stay in the palace for a few days, and then let Angus go to the Duke's mansion after his identity was announced.

Terrence shook his head and rejected the request.

He would not let Angus, who is used to turning black and white, stay with the queen. Maybe before Terrence sent someone to pick him up in a few days, this innocent-looking boy had already changed to someone like the court A reserve member of the guards, the lord of a small town, or other messy identities—oh, this is not an exaggeration at all.

"After all, he is my brother, Your Majesty. Of course I am responsible for that."

Terrence said so, and brought his lovely "brother". When the servant brought him over, the other party had already changed into clean clothes that didn't fit well, and there was still a little crumb of snacks on the corner of his mouth.

Look, how innocent the expression on that innocent face was, Terrence wanted to gouge his eyes out.

But of course he can't do that, Her Majesty's meaning is very clear - this young man is still very useful in the confrontation with the church... damn it will be useful to rebel one day.

"elder brother--"

Angus clenched the sleeves that covered the back of his hands, and seemed to be shivering nervously. Terrence noticed that the servants following him touched his shoulder quietly, as if to comfort him.

——Why couldn't this guy generate a girl?In that case, his flamboyance must make the whole empire like a crane.

Even though he tried his best to suppress the burning flames in his heart, Terrence still couldn't help thinking viciously in his heart at this moment.Apart from other things, he really couldn't bear Angus's appearance of being so innocent that he didn't know the world anytime and anywhere.

But on the surface, he maintained a proper—well, most likely controlled—indifference, and nodded to Angus.

He couldn't show too much hostility towards Angus, that would make others think that he brought Angus back to the Duke's mansion to deal with him properly, but being too close to an illegitimate child would not only humiliate his identity, but also It will allow Angus to take the opportunity to get more things he shouldn't get, and Terrence has suffered enough for this in the last two lives.

——If I were just raising a caged finch without wings, I would have tolerated it even if it made me want to pull out its tongue.But this is clearly wishful thinking.

Terrence frowned.He walked out of the palace with big strides, and Angus followed him staggeringly behind him, as if Terrence was almost the same height as him but his legs were ten centimeters longer.

This made him walk over his head impatiently, and looked at the pretending Angus: "Do you need me to hold you, dear brother? Maybe you would rather let me, who looks about the same size as you, do it instead of walking on two legs You hug it horizontally."

Angus opened his eyes wide, and the pale face under the blond hair showed a weeping expression: "It's not like that, brother. I just feel a little tired from the long journey. Your words really scare me."

Terrence stared at him, with a blank expression on his face, he was patiently not throwing things at hand, such as pocket watches or stones, at Angus' face.

In the end, Terrence turned his head and left the last stone pillar gate of the palace without saying a word—he really planned to take care of this brother after leaving the range of the palace.

Because Terrence came here in a carriage driven by the palace guards, when he left, he was naturally sent back to the mansion by the guards in white uniforms.

Borg was waiting at the door. When Terrence got off the carriage, he stepped forward to support the little master and thanked the guards.He thought the carriage would be moving again soon, and that the queen's valet, loyal and proud, would not greet him.

But the two guards sat in front of the carriage and did not move. Just when Borg was a little confused, a blond boy stepped out of the carriage.

His movements were like that of a girl who would always test the temperature of the water with her toes when taking a bath, cautious and trembling.

Borg looked at Terrence, not understanding the identity of the boy who came back in the same car with Terrence.The other party has beautiful and noble green eyes, but his actions are somewhat aristocratic.

In fact, even Terrence was surprised by Angus' over-the-top disguise.

In the past, even if the other party was good at putting on a show, he should know what kind of behavior would be in line with his identity.Now that it was like this, Terrence wondered if the other party had hurt his head by accident.

It would have been wonderful if he had maintained this self-destructive affectation until the banquet three days later.

Thinking of this, Terrence asked Borg to lead Angus, and walked through the gate of the Duke's mansion alone.

Lancer was standing by the fountain to welcome his return.

Terrence saw the dark blond-haired knight in the setting sun, paused in his footsteps, ignored him, and walked along the path into the bush-covered road.

He really didn't want to see this man now, especially when Angus was behind him.

——What an exciting and fateful encounter that must have been.

Terrence imagined the moment when the eyes of the two men met, and if it made his eyes sparkle, he thought, he would not mind the rest of the knight's body sparkling, even if some of the pain inflicted on it would be destroyed. Let yourself feel it.

——It’s nothing, fate punished me for having a subordinate who was supposed to be on the opposite side, what could be worse than this?

Terrence thought with anger.

But Lancer quickly caught up with him—the knight didn't know that he had avoided a tragedy of "burning on his body", but was only worried about the young master's suddenly cold expression.Since Terrence said that he was willing to open his heart for his loyalty, Lancer's mood was probably similar to that of a swing frame, climbing up and down for a while.

He wondered if Terrence knew about Uriah being made to cry, but the young master didn't seem to be angry about it.

This confused Lancer a little.He couldn't imagine what else he had done, and of course he would never know that the blond boy he had just glimpsed out of the corner of his eye was the one who made Terrence take his anger out on him.

Adhering to the principle of saying less and making less mistakes and following Terrence, Lancer felt more and more loyal and reliable, and even himself was moved. Those who knew him would not have thought that he would be so diligent and more like a A real knight who has a commandment, but who made his little master Terrence.

Anyone will be impressed by the light of the little master.Thinking like this, Lancer recalled that not long ago when Terrence grabbed his collar to accept his loyalty, he could almost see from Terrence's imposing adult image a few years later.

A dinner starts in dullness and ends in dullness.

Even though Angus tried to strike up a conversation, what responded to him was the crisp sound of tableware colliding.

Anyway, the home belonged to Terrence Hyman Aldrett.Who cares about a guest who has just arrived when the host is silent.

Terrence has already prepared to deal with this cheap brother coldly, at least until he has enough power or the other party's use value in the Queen's eyes becomes smaller.

Angus lowered his eyes quietly at last, the soft light of the magic lamp crossed his half-opened eyelids, quenching into a sharp cold light.

After dinner, Terrence called Adam into the bedroom, followed by Uriah who was snuggling close to his side.Lancer complained about this, but thinking about what happened in the afternoon, he could only watch them leave with a tangled heart.

Terrence glanced at him before leaving. Lanser's actions made him less alert to the knight.

...Maybe he should separate Lancer and Angus.

But this decision was quickly denied by Terrence.

He doesn't look like a low self-esteem husband who is always wary of whether his wife is cheating-although this metaphor is too ridiculous, but Terrence feels that if he needs to be cautious and frightened to that extent, the embarrassing posture may even be jealous Exuberant husbands are worse.

He said that he would give Lancer a chance.Although this opportunity is now different because of Angus' early appearance, there is still only one opportunity.

—I keep my word, Lancer.

——If you betray me, I will make your life worse than death.I also keep my word in this sentence.

Terrence turned his head and took Adam and Uriah upstairs, leaving Lancer and Angus in the hall.

"Are you... brother's bodyguard?"

Just when Lancer turned around and was about to go back to the room, Angus finally stopped him.

Lancer looked at this young man whose facial features were slightly similar to Terrence's. Terrence had already introduced him at the dinner table just now - the adopted son of the old duke.But those eyes of similar color showed that the identity of this teenager was not so simple.

Thinking of the tense look on the little master's face, Lancer already had a guess.

He didn't want to get involved with the other party, but now that Angus had stopped him, Lancer simply stopped in his tracks to see what the man who was about to be given the same surname as the young master wanted to say.

"I... I just came here, can you give me a little introduction?" Angus rubbed his fingers and showed a shy smile, "I don't want to offend my brother, I'm worried that I'm not doing well enough, um …Brother Terrence doesn’t look happy today, maybe it’s because of me.”

Lancer frowned slightly: "The master has always been like this, you think too much. As for the rules of the duke's mansion, maybe the housekeeper should tell you."

After he finished speaking, he didn't stay any longer, turned around and went upstairs.

Angus stayed where he was, showing an innocent smile in the empty living room: "Master...you are really a loyal guard."

Outside the floor-to-ceiling windows, a shooting star streaked across the dark blue sky.
