Why Are You So Disinterested In Affection?

Why Are You So Disinterested In Affection?
Chapter 04


Liana walked back towards the northern castle, she walked in the lead as if she already knew the layout of the entire palace.


Of course he already knew, after all in his first life he was satisfied to go around this palace area to death boredom.


"Uncle, it was Uncle Albert's name, wasn't it?" Liana opened her mouth, glancing at Albert who was sweating coldly.


"Yes, Princess. My name is Albert" Albert replied briefly, he felt if he spoke too much to this child. He might just expose something to this kid.


Liana raised next to her eyebrows, she was called the princess? really did? The Emperor doesn't have anything under his sleeve does he?


"Why didn't the gi-man, why did the emperor just take me for granted? We didn't even know each other before"


Facing the plain question of the little boy in front of him, it was only according to Albert. Albert racked his brain to give an answer to this kid, did he just tell him everything, huh?


"Actually, His Majesty the Emperor has been watching the Princess for some time, then he decided to visit you this morning"


Liana frowned, "Any, are you sure that's the reason?" liana asked in her heart.


Liana silently remained silent, not retaliating on what reason Albert explained.


"Ah, Uncle Albert, we've come now" hearing Liana's remark, Albert turned his gaze forward and saw that they had actually reached the northern castle.


Albert's jaw almost fell, he looked at Liana in disbelief, he was sure that the child in front of him had never been around exploring the castle territory.


"This child is not the incarnation of the Devil who infiltrated it, right? He's not a spy disguised as the Princess isn't he?"


That was how Albert's mind was, meanwhile Liana smiled wryly as she knew the contents of Albert's mind.


"Devil incarnate or spy your ass, if I were really a Devil incarnate or a spy, I wouldn't want to be told to spy on this Empire, it would be tantamount to seeking death" Liana said.


"Miss Liana!!" a shout resuscitated the two people, Liana could see, someone was running towards her.


"Elena!!" liana's shout broke, she ran towards Elena and then jumped towards Elena.


If Elena had not caught him, it was certain that he had fallen and was injured.


"Geez Miss, I beg you not to suddenly jump like that, it's dangerous, what if I didn't catch Miss and then Miss got hurt?" worried about Elena at length.


"Hehehe, I won't, after all I believe Elena will always protect me" Liana said with a sweet smile on her face.


Albert had listened to the scene in front of him and almost dropped his jaw again, his daughter could have two different images, wait, his daughter?


"Sorry, who is this knight sir?" elena's tone became different, it sounded cold in her voice.


"What'sthis? Why could these masters and servants bear such a resemblance to this?" albert's lips in his heart.


"I? My name is Albert, I'm the emperor's personal knight, you must be the servant of Princess Liana right?"


Elena raised next to her eyebrows, then looked towards Liana who had an indifferent look.


Seeing Elena's reaction, Albert nodded his head as if he understood something.


"Well, it's time for me to return, Princess, tomorrow I'll pick you up in the morning, the Emperor asks you to wear more decent clothes" Albert said.


"What the fuck!! Not worth saying!? This is the clothes Elena made herself!! At least buy me clothes! Not just criticizing like a blind man!" maki Liana in heart.


Please remind Liana she must restrain herself if she wants to leave the imperial palace immediately, she can explode at any time now.


After saying that, Albert left from there, leaving Elena and Liana standing there.


"Liana, if the emperor lost his chivalry, it wouldn't be a problem would it?" liana asked with angry glaring eyes.


Elena cleared her throat once, she knew how frightening this child would be if it was already angry or irritated with someone.


"Don't do it Miss, or you'll be in trouble" explained Elena with a cold sweat the size of a corn seed on her forehead.


"Emer, you gave birth to a monster here" Elena's inner self was distressed.


While at Albert's side, he stood in front of a large room door, looking as if he sighed once and started knocking on the door.


Tok tok tok tok


"Your Majesty, Albert is here, fulfilling His Majesty's orders" Albert's tone was different from before, it sounded serious.


"Come inside, Albert" said the Emperor who had been inside.


There was a man with moss-green hair there too, wearing a thin lensed eyeglass box perched on his nose.


His matching colored bead of eyes with his hair looked at Albert, he was Sean, the Emperor's personal assistant.


A person who became an accomplice of the Emperor in taking care of the affairs of the Empire, he was a confidant of the emperor himself.


"Alright Sean, we can from now on" the Emperor's face gradually became serious, he linked his fingers and placed them on the table.


"Well, Your Honor, Your Majesty they've been moving lately, I'm afraid they're going to make a mess in the near future" Sean spoke while occasionally confirming the position of his glasses.


Sean handed some sheets of paper to the Emperor, the Emperor read them, and his face hardened after reading the report.


Albert just listened from now on, he already understood where the direction of the conversation would go.


"Albert" called the emperor sounding stifling with anger.


"Your command, Your Majesty" Albert placed his right hand on his left chest, awaiting orders.


"Go with George, it's time to clean them up" Albert raised his head, he understood what was currently on the Emperor's mind.


"Okay, Your Majesty, I'll do it soon"


"Make sure to completely eradicate them down to the roots, it looks like I was too soft last time" the Emperor's face looked sinister.


"Understanding, Your Majesty" Albert left the room, the Emperor was still speechless with fingers still interlocked.


"Your Majesty the Emperor, are you sure about that? It could be that the Princess is in danger if you suddenly just give the Princess such attention"


Sean confirmed his glasses, a worried look visible behind the lens of his glasses. Emperor Aaron fell silent, but his decision was already unanimous, he had to make amends for his past mistakes in this life.


Sean looked at the Emperor and sighed, this person in front of him, if he already had the determination, then there would be no one who could stop him.


"In that case, I will tighten the guard around the palace secretly, should if you want to do this, you should not send your youngest daughter to the northern castle from the beginning"


The Emperor, Aaron Louis Lionsword, was silent at the words of Sean, his friend and trusted man.


"Either Sean, I felt like something was covering my mind at that moment until I did it, did you think my youngest daughter hated me?"


Sean sighed, why is his best friend asking the obvious? He realized that sometimes his best friend can be stupid when it comes to his children.


"Most likely yes, he hates you, after all he's been sent to the northern palace when he can't even crawl"


Aaron was silent, rightly so, plus in the past he even took the life of his youngest daughter as if her youngest daughter was an imperial traitor.


She started to question herself in the past, why did she even take the life of her youngest daughter just because of a child she had no contact with?


Given that it made Aaron feel sad and disappointed to himself, the sensation of his hand holding a sword and beheading his own youngest daughter still lingered fresh in his memory.


The tearful face looked at him, full of question marks, as Aaron ignored it, and carried out the public execution of his youngest daughter.


He remembered the gaze of his fourth son, who was looking at him with deep anger and disappointment.


He didn't understand, why would he do that? Wh why? Though as he remembered, he had the intention of protecting his youngest daughter, why would he ... behead her youngest daughter with his own hands?


The same sentence of questions kept spinning in her mind, she did not understand, what was wrong with her youngest daughter until she cut off her head?


Someone, could someone tell her why she did that at that time? An unbearable sense of tightness began to fill his chest.


Sean was speechless to see Aaron's chaotic eyes, he knew that, although his best friend, as well as the person he served, seemed calm on the outside, he had a lot of thoughts in mind.


Sean sighed silently, his best friend needs time alone to calm his mind.


"Your Majesty, I resign, I will immediately ask Sir.Arthur to place the knights around the palace"


Aaron regained his senses for a moment, then nodded, agreeing with what Sean had said.


Seeing Aaron's response, Sean lowered his head, then went to do what he had planned.


Aaron took a picture in his desk drawer, a picture of a beautiful woman with faded red hair who was smiling until her eyes narrowed.


"Rafaela, I'm sorry, I can't deliver on what I promised, I'll make up for it in this life, please, forgive me" Aaron said, holding Isak in tears.


Aaron started laughing, laughing at himself in the past, tears without him noticing began to flow, at that moment he realized, he was just a failed father.
