Chapter 102

104 Sad farewell When they returned to the dining room with the others, April looked at the children.

She was sorry to leave them, but she knew that they would be better off with the duchess than with her in the royal palace.

After breakfast everyone headed to the entrance, April stayed behind with the children and the duchess, she gave them a hug and said to them.

_Children, do you want to stay and live with the Duchess Mollin? _ Are you going to leave us? Otis asked with glassy eyes.

April caressed his cheek and answered.

_Only if they want to stay.

The duchess approached them and said.

_I have also lost my family just like you, wouldn't you like to be my family? Otis, upon hearing that the Duchess had also lost her family, felt sorry, since he also knew what it was like to lose the people you love.

_No one is going to force you to stay, but I would love for you to do so.

Since you arrived, this house has been filled with laughter, I would like it to continue being that way, of course that is if you want too.

_If we stayed, we wouldn't see April again.

_Of course.

The duchess replied with a sweet look.

_We can go to the palace to visit her.

_I'll come see them too.

April replied.

_I will come to see them whenever I can and write them letters.

_But we don't know how to read.

_But they will learn,_ the duchess replied.

_I will adopt you as my children, I will hire teachers and they will teach you to read and write, so you too can send letters to his majesty.

Otis and Joe had loved that place and after learning that the duchess had also lost her family they did not want to leave her alone, Otis asked his brother.
