Novel Bin Chapter 456 Getting Engaged Again Part 1
Chapter 456 Getting Engaged Again Part 1
When I walked out of the VIP room, Grace was standing there with Atolie. "Master…."
"It\'s been a while, Grace." I smiled, walked over, and gave her a hug. Grace and I were connected. If I died, she died. That was why she was still the grace from the previous timeline. When I traveled back in time, she did as well.
Grace pushed her face into my neck and hugged me back. I could feel her choking up a little, which made me smile warmly. "We will make it through this time. We will figure out it no matter what."
"Mm…" Grace nodded. I rubbed her back gently before finally letting her go. It was only then that I noticed something in Atolie\'s hands.
"This is?" I looked at the clothes curiously.
"Adel had them prepared for you for today\'s event," Atolie replied.
I figured as much, but well, I had to hand it to the girl. She had done all of this behind my back without me knowing. "So, Sophie and I will also be getting engaged, so where are your\'s and Grace\'s dresses? You both want to get engaged as well, right?"
Atolie blushed, as did Grace, and lowered their heads. I do wonder if they really thought I had not noticed in the past two lifetimes. Atolie was the first to finally speak. "We are only here to serve…."
"Nope! You are both here as people I love and care for. I know Grace\'s feelings, but Atolie, for you to have gone back in time with me so many times and even make it so I would summon you all the time, you can\'t tell me you do not have feelings for me beyond a master-servant type relationship. Atolie, you have long become family to me. If you wish to go beyond what we have now, I am more than willing to. I also will not force you."
"I…" Atolie expression seemed a little scared and a little happy. I have no idea what we had been in the past, but from what I can tell, we must have had a relationship in one of our timelines. "If you are willing to accept me again…."
She says again…. That proves it. "I am more than willing," I replied with a smile. I took the dress in her hands and then pulled her along with me as we walked to where I was supposed to get changed.
When I walked through the door, Sophie and Adel were already there waiting, all dressed up. "You both look beautiful."
"Hehe!" Adel smiled brightly as she looked past me to Grace and Atolie. "So?"
"If you do not mind, can we add two more for the engagement?" I asked while rubbing my nose. I felt kind of bad since I did not know if Adel had planned for all of this.
"Of course!" Adel smiled and quickly clapped her hands. Before Grace and Atolie could react, a few maids pulled them away to get changed. A few more came over to me and began stripping me of my clothes. I swear, I will never get used to this.
We were all dressed in white gowns. Atolie and Grace looked very beautiful. Adel held my hand as we walked up to the main stage that had been built in the middle of the main square. I could see the confusion on the faces of everyone there to watch the show. Adel stepped forward and smiled at the people below. "Today is the day Faith Cyrilia will be getting engaged to her future wives. As you all know, I am Princess Adel. You might be wondering why so many girls are getting engaged to each other. Well… It is because we fell in love with the same person. Faith is strong and kind. She is someone who takes care of those around her. She will defend those she loves with her life. She is this kind of person.
"We may be young. We may not seem like we know what we are doing and that this might just be a spur of the moment thing, but our love is something that has been blooming since we were very young. And most of all, my father has long okayed my engagement to Faith. For you nobles who find the fact that I am being betrothed to another girl a sin, I can only tell you, keep your ideas about me to yourself, or you might end up losing your family line." Adel\'s words really made a lot of people\'s faces turn sour. I watched as the damned king at the side smiled proudly. I could tell he was not happy either, but I think the fact that those bastards from the noble families couldn\'t lay their hands on his daughter made this event okay with him.
I walked over, held Adel\'s hand, and faced the crowd. The aura I had when I had become an empress naturally burst out of me as I began to speak. "Today, with the people I have had by my side for so many years, each one of them will now be tied to me for all our lives. Whether we live for an eternity or whether we all die tomorrow, no matter the timeline we live in, I will always only want these girls by my side. Adel, Sophie, Grace, and Atolie, each of these girls I hold dear in my heart. I will protect them at the cost of my own life. No matter how many timelines I must create to do this. I will do it. If someone dares to try to harm them, I will destroy that person. I do not care if you are an individual, a family, or a country. I have the power to make you regret forever trying to harm my loved ones."
A threat. I was giving those who might still have schemes up their sleeves a head-on threat. They dare to covet what is mine; I will make them wish for death.
