Forgotten Wife: Let the Traitors Kneel Down by Patricia Maradiaga

Chapter 23

23 A sincere apology After eating April ran to her little house, she did that every day to go feed the baby fox she was taking care of, when she got to the house she opened the door and there was Cassian feeding the little fox, seeing her so agitated she asked her.

_ What's the matter? _I came to feed this little guy.

April replied as she petted the little fox.

_I think it would be better if you took him to the palace, it must be very tiring to come here every day, I heard that you are very busy with your classes.

_ It is, but I don't think His Majesty would like it.

Cassian remembered that Alessandro didn't like animals very much, he replied.

_I guess you're right.

_If I could, I would set him free, but every time I leave him in the forest he ends up coming back.

_He's been living like a pet, I think this little one has no survival instinct, that's why he prefers to be with you.

_But there will be a day when I will not be able to return to this house, and what will become of him? Who will feed him? _If you want, I will take care of him.

If he is in the palace, you will be able to see him every day and you will not have to worry about him dying of hunger.

_I would really appreciate it if you did that.

April stayed for a while petting the little fox with a sad expression on her face, while she did so Cassian asked her.

_You seem sad lately, what's wrong? _Nothing, I just realized that...

April cut off her words and said.

_I have to go, I'll see you later.

April walked to the door, before leaving she said.

_Take good care of him.

_I will do so.
