However, out of respect for his father’s reputation, both William and Agnes stepped forward to greet the family generals, saying, “Thank you for your hard work.”

The family generals bowed in return, replying, “You’re too kind.”

As they entered the manor, the families of the generals, who had previously hesitated to greet them, now rushed forward to embrace their returning fathers and husbands, excitedly catching up.

Pablo turned to the generals and said, “You all go rest. Take a break for the next few days, spend time with your families.”

Pablo, as always, maintained a strict and disciplined military demeanor, but now, with a rare concession, the generals were thrilled.

After the generals retired to their quarters, Margaret smiled and approached, her voice warm and affectionate. “You must be exhausted from celebrating today. I’ve already had a drink to soothe you prepared–please, come in and have some.”

Pablo looked at her with a hint of approval. “You are thoughtful.”

Margaret chuckled softly. “Between us, such words are unnecessary.”

Pablo, after all these years, replied, “You’ve been with me all this time, serving my parents, and even seeing off my mother. I remember everything. No matter what mistakes you’ve made, I’ll never cast you aside.”

Margaret’s heart skipped a beat, her smile wavering slightly as she tried to maintain composure. “What are you saying?”

Pablo replied solemnly, “This is my promise to you.”

After that, he walked briskly into the hall. William shot a nervous glance at Margaret, who motioned for him to follow.

Once inside, Margaret saw Pablo sitting at the head of the table, his whip placed on the table beside him. This was a typical practice for him, but to William’s eyes, it felt ominous. He was now filled with dread.

Margaret instructed, “Bring the drink to ease his mind.”

As the servants departed, Margaret took her seat beside William. Agnes asked, “Father, was the journey exhausting?”

Pablo replied, “The hardships were in the war, not the journey. The battle is won, and the only thing on my mind is returning home.”

Agnes, smiling sweetly, added, “Mother must have missed you terribly.”
