Chapter 34

“Yeah, come in!” Ellia called out.

Edward and Tim entered her office, and bowed. When they stood with the royals, they went over to carry the two stacks waiting for them on Ellia’s desk. Xandar put Russell on the floor, and the little boy ran straight for Lucianne’s leg and hugged it while tugging her dress to get her attention.

When Lucianne felt a warmth wrap around her leg, she looked down and saw Russell. She bent down with a smile and the little boy said in a sad voice, “Are you leaving, Aunt Lucy?”

The little boy threw his small arms around Lucianne’s neck, “Be careful of bad guys, okay, Aunt Lucy?”

Lucianne was so touched by this child. She hugged him back before releasing him and said,(This novel will be daily updtaed at www.noveljar.com) “I will, Russell. You be good, okay?

Christian mind-linked Xandar, “Damn, the Queen’s good.’

Xandar was equally impressed as he linked back, ‘I knew she could control her emotions but I didn’t know she could act so well!

‘I am not sure how I’m going to act after everything that just happened but here goes.’

‘I’m right behind you.’

Christian thrusted his hand and Ellia shook it awkwardly, “Thank you, Mrs Morgan.” He then did the same for Ben, “Pleasure to have met you, Mr Morgan.” Xandar went next, copying his cousin. Lucianne held the door open and said, “Edward, Tim, here. You both go first. Those look heavy.”
