Lord Kenny Bred shook his head and bitterly smiled. "I'm fine, Dear. I won’t follow you to the World Universe, since Darryl is there. H-he... will take good care of you. Dear, don't worry about me. His Majesty still favors me, so he can't do much harm to me."
Lord Kenny then let out a long sigh as he bore through the pain in his heart and said to Ambrose, "Ambrose, I won't be by your side in the future. You have to be a good boy and protect your mother when you grow up. Do you understand?"
"Hmm!" Ambrose looked at Lord Kenny with his small face and nodded.
Although Ambrose was still young, he realized something at that moment and
hugged Lord Kenny's leg while saying," Father, come with us. I still want you to buy candy for me.”
Lord Kenny could no longer hold back his own emotions upon hearing those words as his tears fell.
The next second, he crouched with his tear-soaked face and smilingly said, "Ambrose, when you go back to the World Universe and meet your real father, he’ll buy candies for you...”
'Real father?’ Ambrose was confused at those words.
At that moment, Lord Kenny said no more as he stood up and yelled toward the guards outside, “Get Tyler Gill here!"
Not long after, Tyler quickly approached and respectfully said, "Lord Kenny, how may I assist you?”
Tyler was Lord Kenny's right-hand man-the person he trusted most.
Lord Kenny's voice was hoarse as he said," Tyler, I order you starting from now to protect Monica and Ambrose. Lead them back to the World Universe until they meet Darryl Darby. There can't be any mistakes!"
'What?' Tyler shuddered and was completely stunned.
'Lord Kenny cares a lot for Monica. Why will he want to send her back to be with Darryl Darby? W-what's going on?’
As that thought crossed his mind, he noticed Lord Kenny’s miserable expression and dared not ask much. He responded with a fist-palm salute, "Lord Kenny, don't worry. I’ll do my very best."
Lord Kenny nodded and then smiled at Monica. "Dear, please take Ambrose and leave before His Majesty sends someone over to check.” He then turned and left as his tears kept falling.
What was the point of being a lord at that moment? He could not even protect the woman he held dear.
"Lord Kenny...” At that moment, Monica was choking on her tears uncontrollably as well. She looked at him and said, 'Take care, Lord Kenny. Take care...”
Ambrose was affected by the farewell and started crying. "Father, I don't want to leave you...”
Lord Kenny did not respond nor did he turn around.
He was afraid he would miss them even more if he turned around.
Tyler soon led Monica and Ambrose out. The trio left from Luang Ping Palace's
backdoor.
At that instant, Lord Kenny fiercely turned around upon hearing their footsteps gradually getting further away from him while his tears ran down his face uncontrollably.
