Just moments ago, Adeline had been pressing Sophie aggressively, but now she

looked completely stunned, her voice shrill with disbelief.

She said, "Dale, what nonsense are you saying? We just barely survived. Why are you resigning from your post?"

Dale replied, "My mind is made up.”

He closed his eyes briefly. After giving a respectful bow to both Eliza and Sophie, he looked at Adeline. "You are my wife. I've decided to resign and leave Hasen City. Will you return to our hometown with me, or remain here in Hasen City?"

Marquis's estate hailed from the Nevill family in Fotidia. If he resigned and returned home, it would mean returning to Fotidia.

Adeline had initially wanted to dissuade her husband, to stop him from making such an impulsive decision.

But upon seeing the resolute expression on his face, she realized he was serious. After more than a decade of marriage, she knew Dale wasn't threatening her, nor was he joking. He truly intended to resign.

She opened her mouth to speak, but after glancing down at her son, now battered and broken, her eyes reddened with emotion.

She said, "Dale, you can't leave me behind. If you're going, then I'll go with you. We'll take Caleb and leave Hasen City together."

Hearing this, the stern look on Dale's face melted into gentle warmth. He pulled her into an embrace and nodded. "Yes, we'll go together."

"Who said you could leave?" At that moment, Sophie's voice rang out coldly from behind, sharp and menacing.
