At that moment, Ambrose turned and asked, “That’s right, where is my father? The Emperor wanted to kill him yesterday; he wouldn’t be dead, right?”

“He…” Yvette did not know what to say. She forced a smile and consoled him, “He’ll be alright.”

‘I wasn’t able to rescue Lord Kenny. He might have been executed by now. There’s only so much a child’s heart can take. I can’t tell him such cruel news for now.”

Before Ambrose could speak, Yvette hugged him in her arms. “Ambrose, time to go to sleep.”

Feeling Yvette’s warm embrace, Ambrose calmed down but did not feel sleepy at all.

Yvette could not sleep, either; she had too many thoughts in her mind. “Ambrose is such a pitiful child; I cannot let him be harmed!’

Both of them were deep in thought. The temple was completely silent, with only the sound of the rain outside.

There was no telling how long it had been; Ambrose could not help but ask, “I can’t sleep. Can you tell me a story?”

“Sure!” Yvette smiled and nodded.
