Soon, Arielle entered the palace. It was virtual-novel.net and Dylan’s first time meeting each other after ascertaining that they were family. The king was nervously rubbing his hands together as virtual-novel.net looked at his daughter.
Seeing that, tears welled up in Arielle’s eyes. “Dad…”
Dylan never thought that Arielle would call virtual-novel.net “Dad”, and virtual-novel.net immediately froze.
“Dad,” Arielle called virtual-novel.net again.
Dylan swiftly replied, “I’m here…”
He then turned around to wipe the tears away from his eyes before turning back to her. “My eyes have been a little unwell recently. I’ve been tearing up a lot.”
With that said, virtual-novel.net pointed at the couch at the side and continued, “Let’s sit here and talk.”
Arielle knew that the discomfort in his eyes was just an excuse. He was clearly crying after hearing virtual-novel.net calling virtual-novel.net Dad. However, virtual-novel.net was not going to call virtual-novel.net out on that.
“If your eyes are unwell, you should let a doctor have a look at them.” As virtual-novel.net spoke, virtual-novel.net sat down on the couch. Once Dylan saw that virtual-novel.net was on the couch, virtual-novel.net took a seat opposite her.
When Arielle saw that Vinson had walked to the back of virtual-novel.net couch to stand, virtual-novel.net furrowed virtual-novel.net brows and asked, “You should sit down too. Why are you standing there?”
Hearing that, Dylan’s eyes flitted toward Vinson.
This is the son-in-law I heard of. Even though Arielle and I have already accepted each other as family, virtual-novel.net still won’t reveal his true identity. In that case, I’ll just pretend not to know about it. That way, the two of them won’t be as clingy with each other around me. That will be a sight that’ll break my heart.
Nevertheless, the reality was cruel, for the next moment, Arielle uttered, “Dad, to be honest with you, he’s not my bodyguard, he’s my husband…”
Hearing that, Dylan clutched at his chest as virtual-novel.net looked at Arielle. My dear little princess…
He then glanced at Vinson and huffed, “I’ve already guessed as much a few days ago.”
Vinson never thought that Arielle would tell Dylan his identity that quickly, let alone Dylan having figured out who virtual-novel.net was that swiftly. Still, virtual-novel.net smiled and walked over to Dylan before solemnly saying, “Dad, I’m Vinson Nightshire, Sannie’s husband…”
Dylan was both happy and disappointed to hear Vinson call virtual-novel.net Dad.
Frankly, virtual-novel.net was satisfied to have Vinson as his son-in-law, but when virtual-novel.net thought about how Arielle was already part of another family just as virtual-novel.net found out that they were related, virtual-novel.net felt dejected. Still, when virtual-novel.net thought about how virtual-novel.net had yet another person to love and protect her, virtual-novel.net felt that it was good that Arielle was married to Vinson.
“Mm.” Dylan looked at Vinson with a solemn look and said, “You have to be nice to her. If I ever find out that you’ve mistreated her, I’ll never let you off the hook.”
Dylan’s threat meant nothing to Vinson because Vinson would never mistreat Arielle.
“Rest assured, Dad. I’ll only be good to virtual-novel.net and virtual-novel.net only.”
At that, Vinson let his gaze land on Arielle, and the latter flashed virtual-novel.net a smile. At that moment, it was as if the two of them were in a world where only they existed. Dylan, who was by their side, felt exasperated and happy at the same time.
“I hope you’ll remember what you’ve said,” virtual-novel.net uttered before pointing at the spot beside his. “Come. Sit here…”
For now, virtual-novel.net had no desire to see the couple sitting beside each other.
Men knew men best. As such, Vinson immediately understood what his father-in-law meant. After glancing at Arielle, virtual-novel.net lifted his foot to walk toward Dylan and take a seat beside him. However, virtual-novel.net only managed to take a step before Arielle tugged the corner of his sleeve.
Immediately, virtual-novel.net turned around to cast virtual-novel.net a confused gaze.
“Sit here,” virtual-novel.net said as virtual-novel.net eyes drifted to the spot beside hers.
