Chapter 262

Daran was in a horrible mood when he left the meeting room.

The list that the elder handed to him was threaded into pieces and discarded into the trash.

Aspen sat in his arms quietly, his chubby arms wrapped around Daran’s neck.

“Are you going to get married?” asked the boy as they marched down the hallway.

The furrow between Daran’s brows grew deeper, “No…I don’t know…Maybe.”

The elders were right about one thing.

This kingdom indeed needs a Luna and an heir.

“If you are to get married, why did you yell at those people?” the boy asked. “Are you in love with a certain lady that the elders forbid you to marry?”

Daran’s heart ached for a quick moment.

S

The woman that he was in love with…Well, the elders didn’t stop them from being together, the fate did.

His heart died the moment that they parted.

He would never fall in love with another woman, ever again.

So maybe he should listen to the elders and choose a Luna. He didn’t need to love her. As long as she was a Luna material, that was all that mattered.

“Well, don’t you worry?”

Daran rubbed the boy’s bushy hair and smiled, “Even if I do get married, you can still call me daddy and hang out with me. Nothing will change. Now, let us go interview your new nanny.’

He took the boy back to his chamber and asked the servant to summon Lady Kurt.

About half an hour later, the servant reported back to them, saying that Lady Kurt was there.

Daran raised his head. His eyes flickered to the door as that woman stepped in.

A strange feeling surged up in his chest at that moment.

She was wearing a black long dress that covered up her entire body, looking very much like a prude. And her face was still covered by that mask.
