My Daddy Hide His Power - Chapter 94

‘W, why are you carrying that?’

 

I was bewildered.

 

I can’t believe he’s carrying a seal.

 

Does he cherish it in the front pocket of his sweaty training suit?

 

It was as if he was always preparing for what would happen today.

 

“Hahahaha!”

 

Dad laughed as the surroundings soon left.

 

Then he put his arm around Axion’s shoulder and laughed mockingly at the Marquis who was standing next to him.

 

“As expected, our vice-commander! Oh~, are you a thorough person?”

 

“I get it, so get out of the way.”

 

After removing Dad, Axion walked to the counter and started stamping the seal over the documents that had only had signatures on them.

 

There is no turning back now…

 

The Marquis, who had been watching it with a pale expression, rushed at Dad.

 

“Duke Rubinstein! What kind of bully is this?”

 

“Bully? Doesn’t that sound a bit strange?”

 

“I am Cheshire’s biological father! The one who handed down the rank to him!”

 

The Marquis was about to cry.

 

“Even the devil doesn’t do this! I, the real father, am alive with my eyes wide open, and you are taking away my child like this?”

 

He added as if appealing to the staff, who were all holding their breath and watching as if they wanted to grab a straw.

 

“Do you think this makes sense? Is this situation in which father and son are separated from each other right in front of their eyes, really?”

 

“I’m sorry during the show.”

 

Dad intervened.

 

“I’m the one who’s taken care of the child so far. And finding someone to be a good adoptive father and registering the child through a very normal and legal process.”

 

In contrast to the Marquis, who cried and whined, Dad’s speech was calm and clear.

 

“Even though the father is in front of him, the answer comes out just by looking at the child writing his name on the document without any worries.”

 

Dad smiled and added.

 

“You were so greedy that you even talked about the fact that you abused your child with your own mouth.”

 

“….”

 

“Why is it that you’re so proud that you can’t act like your age? Do you think you can collect sympathy tickets here?”

 

The employees who had been listening to Dad’s words timidly nodded to see if they agreed.

 

“Let’s not get uglier. If you really want to act as his biological father.”

 

Dad drew close to the Marquis.

 

“Never again, don’t put that disgusting face in front of the child.”

 

The added voice was ferocious.

 

The surroundings are static.

 

The Marquis continued to glare at Dad with bloodshot eyes.

 

“Excuse me… the registration has been approved.”

 

It was the voice of our counter staff who broke the silence.

 

She clapped timidly as she broke out in a cold sweat in the cold atmosphere.

 

“C, congratulations on the birth of a new family!”

 

When Dad heard those words, he immediately let go of his scary expression and smiled brightly, opening his arms to Cheshire and Axion.

 

“Okay then, let’s go home now!”

 

* * *

 

As soon as they came out, Lilith grabbed Cheshire and asked.

 

“Cheshire! Are you sure you’re okay with this? You’ve been telling me you don’t like a family… B, but Uncle?”

 

Lilith looked dumbfounded.

 

Cheshire is also confused at the same time.

 

It was a time when clarification was needed.

 

Even though it was in the wrong order and he had already finished registering for a long time—.

 

“Princess, please understand Cheshire. It’s all Dad’s fault. Up until now, Dad had been training Cheshire too hard. It was too much to do.”

 

“Is that really the reason?”

 

Lilith’s face showed that she didn’t understand.

 

Cheshire looked at Enoch. He had a strange smile.

 

‘Maybe Uncle too….’

 

Enoch seemed to notice.

 

He finds himself with Lilith strange about becoming a sibling.

 

Eventually, Cheshire gave Enoch an apologetic look and nodded.

 

“Eung. I’m sorry.”

 

Lilith’s eyes widened in shock.

 

Even though he can’t say loudly that it was a lie.

 

‘Let’s be careful not to close my eyes.’

 

He won’t get caught if he doesn’t make the mistake of closing his eyes tightly.

 

How surprised he was to find out that she could tell when he lied just by looking at his face.

 

“Puhehe. Are you just lying?”

 

“W, what?”

 

“Actually you’re all obvious. You can’t lie at all. Do you know that you close your eyes when you lie? You didn’t know, did you?”

 

He knew because Lilith told him when he was at the training camp.

 

So, as long as he doesn’t close his eyes, they will believe him straight away.

 

Even now.

 

“Oh my! What is this! Daddy, you’re bad! Just what on earth are you doing?”

 

Lilith hit Enoch’s knee with her fist like a cotton bat.

 

“Ahahaha! No, but it’s fine anyway. Uncle Axion is a good man. He’s one of the few people Dad can trust, and he won’t roll Cheshire like Dad does.”

 

“Yeah, but then where is Cheshire going now?”

 

There’s silence at Lilith’s question.

 

“Ah, that.”

 

Axion, who had been quietly listening until now, spoke to Cheshire.

 

“Do as you please without having to look at me. Nothing will change. You must be familiar with where you used to live.”

 

“I, is there… any room at the Duke’s house?”

 

“What?”

 

“Anywhere is fine. I just need to sleep.”

 

Perhaps it was an unexpected answer, Axion glanced up.

 

“There are many rooms in my house.”

 

“Ah, then…”

 

“Are you coming in?”

 

“Yes. Thank you.”

 

“Okay, then let’s go get our stuff.”

 

“Yes.”

 

Lilith caught Cheshire in surprise at the conversation that proceeded swiftly.

 

“W, wait a minute. Uncle said you could stay at my house, but do you have to go…?”

 

Cheshire stared at Lilith.

 

Then he nodded.

 

“Eung.”

 

“Why? Let’s just live together in our house like now….”

 

“I can’t.”

 

“Why?”

 

If he lives under the same roof every day like a family—.

 

If he keeps growing like that—.

 

“…I just can’t. I don’t want to.”

 

“Y, you don’t want to?”

 

Cheshire is not a good speaker, and he feels like a fool.

 

But what can he do?

 

She will think of him as a real older brother if they grow up seeing each other’s faces every day and interacting with each other like siblings.

 

He doesn’t like it for some reason.

 

Well, can he tell her the truth like that?

 

“Princess.”

 

Lilith, who looked like she was about to cry, was picked up and hugged by Enoch.

 

“I guess Cheshire has been a bit difficult so far. Dad was really bad.”

 

“W, what did you do…”

 

“And now the paperwork is all over. Cheshire got the last name Libre.”

 

“Eung. But…”

 

“You don’t have to worry. It’s a good thing for Cheshire. If Uncle Axion dies, the money and house he’s earned so far are all Cheshire’s. He’ll go into Uncle’s house in advance and live as a successor, and put his eyes on it.”

 

“Even if you say that.”

 

Axion, who had been listening, became furious.

 

Lilith looked confused at the parting, which she hadn’t even prepared for, but she finally nodded her head in her father’s arms.

 

“O, okay…”

 

* * *

 

It seems that Cheshire’s four months at the Duke of Rubinstein were never short.

 

All the family members felt sorry for Cheshire leaving.

 

Cheshire was embarrassed to see a few users who even cried while greeting one by one.

 

“Come often.”

 

Even Nordic, the eldest elder in the family, who went to greet him at the end, couldn’t hide his sad expression.

 

Cheshire felt strange somehow.

 

What is this?

 

That there are people who welcome him, miss him when he leaves, and ask him. to come back anytime.

 

That’s a lot more than he thought—

 

He was happy.

 

Enough to make his eyes tingle.

 

“Let’s stop by the twins’ house and say hello, okay?”

 

“Yes.”

 

Enoch said, putting Cheshire’s little luggage directly into the carriage.

 

After the twins’ father, Alexei Antrase returns to the capital.

 

Ordia and the twins who were staying here returned to their home.

 

It’s a townhouse in the Capital, about 5 minutes away by carriage, so they tend to go back and forth often, but—.

 

‘She has to be alone now.’

 

Cheshire suddenly became worried about Lilith.

 

Lilith may be lonely in a house where she has neither twins nor Cheshire.

 

They’ve been together all this time.

 

‘Why isn’t she coming?’

 

Cheshire looked around in front of the carriage that was ready to leave.

 

Lilith, who ran to her room as soon as she returned, seemed to cry because she was upset.

 

“Ooh.”

 

Then Enoch was perplexed and said,

 

“Why does my daughter come out dressed so quickly?”

 

What does it mean? He turned around and saw Lilith whimpering and coming across the garden.

 

On her back is a bag of teddy bears with big stomachs.

 

A rabbit bag sticking out of its mouth on the side.

 

Finally, with a bag in hand—.

 

Anyone could tell that she was about to pack up and leave the house.

 

“Princess, my princess. Where are you going, princess?”

 

Enoch quickly stood in front of Lilith.

 

“Uncle!”

 

However, Lilith ran to Axion to avoid Enoch.

 

“I want to go too!”

 

“What?”

 

“I, I’ll go too. Because I’m worried about Cheshire…”

 

“What are you talking about?”

 

“I’m not going very far… Can’t I also stay at Uncle’s house for a while?”

 

Axion raised his eyes and looked at Enoch.

 

Enoch, who was standing behind Lilith, shook his head swiftly and crossed his arms to make an X.

 

“…No.”

When Axion finally refused, Lilith clasped her hand together as if begging with her small hands.

 

“Please, Uncle! Just a month! No, just a week!”

 

Tears welled up in her big eyes.

 

“I wonder if Cheshire might not be able to adapt… I, need to stay by his side….”

 

“No, what do you mean can’t adapt? He’s not even a newborn.”

 

“Whaa. Please. Don’t you have a room at home? You can give me a room for those servants… I can sleep there…”

 

“We have a lot of room? My house is big.”

 

“Then take me with you… I’m good at laundry, too. Uncle, I’ll wash your underwear….”

 

“What? What kind of kid washes the underwear?”

 

Cheshire stared blankly at the weeping Lilith clinging to the perplexed Axion.

 

Then their eyes met.

 

And as soon as their eyes met.

 

“Hik. Whaa!”

 

She cried.

 

Then she ran, grabbed Cheshire by the waist, and held him in her arms.

 

“…Lilith.”

 

“Hnngg. L, like this hng! I, I hate to part ways like this…! Don’t leave me alone…!”

 

“Ah.”

 

What to do?

 

Even Cheshire felt like shed tears.
