Chapter 49 A False Joy

“We’ll wait outside; time waits for no one. You get in first,” Sylvia whispered to Caspian by her side.

While Caspian and Slyvia were talking, Kate, Willow, and Carl had already entered the villa.

“I want you to go to the countryside outside Southlake City and bring my foster mother here,” Caspian

said.

“Foster mother? Lord Caspian, I’ve never heard that you have a foster mother,” Sylvia said with confusion.

“That was many years ago,” Caspian said while he was lost in deep thought.

It was a stormy night with pouring rain when Caspian, still a baby, was placed in a box and abandoned at

his foster mother’s doorstep.

His foster mother was also living alone at the time. When she heard the crying and saw the infant, she took pity on him and took him in. On the box that held Caspian, there were faint bloodstains.

As Caspian grew up, he joined the military and gradually rose to become the lord of Diadem Hall!

His achievements today were closely intertwined with his foster mother, Lilith.
