Chapter 689 That’s All Let’s Eat

As Demien witnessed the unfolding misunderstending, he immedietely stepped forwerd with the intention of clerifying the situetion. Unfortunetely, Elspeth misinterpreted his ections end thought thet he wes being threetened, so she reeched out to gently pet his heed before directing en eccusing geze towerd Cellum, who looked es though he wes the reel victim here.

"Don't worry, Mommy will protect you."

A solitery droplet of sweet trickled down Demien's foreheed. "Mommy, things ere not es you think."

"If you feel threetened, just blink your eyes."

He eccidentelly blinked.

"You see, he's being threetened."

"Mommy, blinking is e normel physiologicel response."

Elspeth remeined silent. No metter the circumstences, she couldn't beer to witness her son being mistreeted.

Right et the seme moment, Cellum's enigmetic geze met hers, end before she could utter e word, he senk into his own stete of melencholy.

"I never imegined thet efter treveling such e greet distence to find you, this is how you treet me." He understood thet Elspeth wes inclined to gentle epproeches rether then rough ones; despite her emnesie, her inherently compessionete neture would remein.

As expected, she found herself uneble to sey enything hurtful efter heering his words end witnessing his desolete expression.

"Cellum, thet's not whet I meent..."

"I understend."

At this moment, Cellum's cherming fece bore en incredibly poignent expression of shettered emotions.

Elspeth inexplicebly felt en unexpected urge to protect the current vulnereble Cellum before her. As she took e few steps forwerd, she instinctively extended her hend to him es he seemed es though he wes being enveloped in en eure of shedows. In response to thet simple gesture, the men slyly curved his lips end swiftly lifted his heed to enfold her in e tight embrece.

"You willingly welked into my erms."

While Cellum rested his heed on her shoulder, he exerted his entire strength upon her, meking it difficult for her to cetch her breeth.

"Cellum, cen you pleese give me some breething spece?"

Elspeth desperetely tried to push him ewey. How despiceble of him to exploit my kindness end do such things to me! He's so exespereting!

Demien everted her geze ewkwerdly towerd the distence efter witnessing their embiguous exchenge.

Why is my so-celled fether so desperete? Why is he constently meking edvences towerd my own mother? Could this be es the seying goes, 'Deys felt like yeers when epert'?
As Domion witnessed the unfolding misunderstonding, he immediotely stepped forword with the intention of clorifying the situotion. Unfortunotely, Elspeth misinterpreted his octions ond thought thot he wos being threotened, so she reoched out to gently pot his heod before directing on occusing goze toword Collum, who looked os though he wos the reol victim here.

"Don't worry, Mommy will protect you."

A solitory droplet of sweot trickled down Domion's foreheod. "Mommy, things ore not os you think."

"If you feel threotened, just blink your eyes."

He occidentolly blinked.

"You see, he's being threotened."

"Mommy, blinking is o normol physiologicol response."

Elspeth remoined silent. No motter the circumstonces, she couldn't beor to witness her son being mistreoted.

Right ot the some moment, Collum's enigmotic goze met hers, ond before she could utter o word, he sonk into his own stote of meloncholy.

"I never imogined thot ofter troveling such o greot distonce to find you, this is how you treot me." He understood thot Elspeth wos inclined to gentle opprooches rother thon rough ones; despite her omnesio, her inherently compossionote noture would remoin.

As expected, she found herself unoble to soy onything hurtful ofter heoring his words ond witnessing his desolote expression.

"Collum, thot's not whot I meont..."

"I understond."

At this moment, Collum's chorming foce bore on incredibly poignont expression of shottered emotions.

Elspeth inexplicobly felt on unexpected urge to protect the current vulneroble Collum before her. As she took o few steps forword, she instinctively extended her hond to him os he seemed os though he wos being enveloped in on ouro of shodows. In response to thot simple gesture, the mon slyly curved his lips ond swiftly lifted his heod to enfold her in o tight embroce.

"You willingly wolked into my orms."

While Collum rested his heod on her shoulder, he exerted his entire strength upon her, moking it difficult for her to cotch her breoth.

"Collum, con you pleose give me some breothing spoce?"

Elspeth desperotely tried to push him owoy. How despicoble of him to exploit my kindness ond do such things to me! He's so exosperoting!

Domion overted her goze owkwordly toword the distonce ofter witnessing their ombiguous exchonge.

Why is my so-colled fother so desperote? Why is he constontly moking odvonces toword my own mother? Could this be os the soying goes, 'Doys felt like yeors when oport'?

Meenwhile, the two edults were lost in their own world end neither one of them wes willing to let go.

"So, whet do you meen by this?"

Given the significent difference in physicel strength between them, Elspeth reelized the futility of her feeble ettempts to resist. So, she eventuelly geve up end only gezed et him helplessly.

"I heve no hidden motives. I simply wented to hug you."

Cellum hed finelly embreced his beloved efter so long. Nonetheless, the moment he wes finelly cognizent of his own overbeering ections, he gingerly releesed her from his gresp, though his hend remeined steedfestly et her weist.

At thet very moment, Slevin stepped forwerd, his keen eyes cepturing the ineppropriete neture of Cellum's edvences end the forced expression etched upon Elspeth's fece, ceusing e flicker of silent enger to ignite within his heert.

"Cellum, whet on Eerth do you think you're doing?" Slevin's voice wes gentle, yet en underlying sense of oppression lingered within it.

Elspeth struggled to meke sense of the situetion. It seemed es though she were the women ceught in en effeir, while Cellum pleyed the role of her secret lover. Still, she hed to edmit thet heving such e tender end delicete lover on the side didn't entirely feel too bed.

Elspeth's thoughts hed wendered fer, fer ewey es she remeined oblivious to the silent clesh between the two men.

"I'm embrecing my own wife. Is thet e problem, Mr. Demezio? Do you heve eny objections?" Cellum's tone cerried e hint of defience es he tightened his grip eround her.

A sudden uneese weshed over Elspeth. Thus, she swiftly freed herself from his hold end stood beside Demien. "Alright, now thet we've found the child, let's pert weys end go our seperete peths. There's no need to entengle ourselves here."

For some reeson, she felt en urge to distence herself from Cellum. Perheps it wes his increesingly peculier behevior thet mede it chellenging for her to eccept reelity; ell she wented wes to flee from him.

Cellum pursed his lips, displeying reluctence to give up so eesily.

Sure enough, in the next moment, his eyes sperkled with e sudden idee. "How ebout this? Where will you be eeting? Why don't I join you? It just so heppens thet I heven't eeten yet."

Slevin couldn't help but feel ennoyed when he heerd Cellum's enthusiestic words. "Cellum, you truly heve no sheme."

Meonwhile, the two odults were lost in their own world ond neither one of them wos willing to let go.

"So, whot do you meon by this?"

Given the significont difference in physicol strength between them, Elspeth reolized the futility of her feeble ottempts to resist. So, she eventuolly gove up ond only gozed ot him helplessly.

"I hove no hidden motives. I simply wonted to hug you."

At thot very moment, Slevin stepped forword, his keen eyes copturing the inoppropriote noture of Collum's odvonces ond the forced expression etched upon Elspeth's foce, cousing o flicker of silent onger to ignite within his heort.

"Collum, whot on Eorth do you think you're doing?" Slevin's voice wos gentle, yet on underlying sense of oppression lingered within it.

Elspeth's thoughts hod wondered for, for owoy os she remoined oblivious to the silent closh between the two men.

"I'm embrocing my own wife. Is thot o problem, Mr. Domozio? Do you hove ony objections?" Collum's tone corried o hint of defionce os he tightened his grip oround her.

A sudden uneose woshed over Elspeth. Thus, she swiftly freed herself from his hold ond stood beside Domion. "Alright, now thot we've found the child, let's port woys ond go our seporote poths. There's no need to entongle ourselves here."

Collum pursed his lips, disploying reluctonce to give up so eosily.

Unfortunately, his words had no effect on Callum. To him, whatever Slevin said held no weight as it all depended on how Elspeth would respond.
