God Of War Dad

Not only Carl but also Julia and the young men and women around them had their expressions changed.

Sean’s decision took them by surprise!

Was he trying to distance himself from them?

Having offended Gerard, annihilated the Jefferson family, and killed Prince Ashby’s right-hand man, it seemed that the only ones who could protect Sean in the entire capital were Padishah in the Imperial Palace and perhaps Prince Roscoe!

But Sean refused to take the conventional path!

Should he be called responsible?

Or was he just foolish???

“Mr. Mason, you…”

Julia couldn’t help but want to say a few words of persuasion. After all, she owed Sean a lot and didn’t want to see him in danger, facing Prince Ashby’s wrath alone.

“My decision is final.”

Sean didn’t give Julia a chance to persuade him either. With a faint smile, he said, “I’m grateful for your friendship.”

“As friends!”

“I hope you can understand and support my decision.”© 2024 Nôv/el/Dram/a.Org.

Everyone looked at each other.

Faced with Sean’s determined gaze, Julia bit her lip and swallowed her unspoken words. She nodded and turned to Carl, saying, “Carl.”

“Since this is the case, we should respect Mr. Mason’s decision.”

“I think…”

“Mr. Mason is an extraordinary person and he sure knows how to handle things. If he dares to stay, he must have a way to deal with Prince Ashby.”

It had to be said that Julia was a considerate and kind-hearted girl.

Though born into the royal family, she didn’t exhibit the arrogance and prejudice typical of royal offspring. Instead, she was gentle, modest, and polite.

Unfortunately, her fate wasn’t so good!

Sean thanked her with a bow, “Thank you for your understanding, Your Highness.”

“Mr. Mason, there’s no need for formality.”

Julia graciously said, “I’ve mentioned before that the title of ‘princess’ is nothing more than a cage that restricts freedom. If you don’t mind, you can just call me Julia in the future.”

Julia???

Sean was taken aback.

Damn!

This way of addressing her…

It sounded somewhat intimate and even a bit ambiguous!

Looking up, he saw that Julia’s face turned slightly red after saying those words, which made Sean even more flustered. My goodness, is my charm that great now???

It was so vexing!!!

Carl naturally noticed Julia’s unusual behavior and subconsciously thought that if Sean could really handle Prince Ashby or sabotage Julia’s marriage, then it would be a good idea to bring Julia and Sean together in due course!

Anyway!

His father and uncle had originally intended to betroth his cousin to Sean, thus binding Sean firmly to their side. After all the twists and turns, they had simply returned to the starting point!

With this in mind, Carl didn’t dwell on the previous issue and laughed, “Since both of you have said so, I won’t insist.”

Then he asked, “Where does Mr. Mason plan to stay?”

“At the Jade Restaurant,” Sean replied. “If Prince Ashby wants to find me for avenging the Jefferson family, he can send someone anytime, so there’s no need to hide and waste everyone’s time.”

The young men and women around them were speechless.

They wondered where Sean’s confidence came from. Not only did he refuse the protection of Prince Carl and Prince Roscoe, but he also brazenly planned to stay at the Jade Restaurant, waiting for Prince Ashby to come knocking?

Damn!

He seemed to be courting death further and further down the road!

“Fine!”

Carl turned to the ten Dark Realm fighters standing nearby and signaled, “Five of you will follow me back to the mansion, and the other five, along with those downstairs, will stay here to follow Mr. Mason’s orders and protect his safety.”

“Yes!”

“Yes!”

The Dark Realm fighters nodded in unison, following Carl’s command.

Sean furrowed his brow.

Was it protection?

Or surveillance?

It was probably both!

Although Carl was very respectful to Sean and repeatedly stated that he wanted to be friends, Sean was no three-year-old child and would not easily believe Carl’s sweet talk.

In the ruthless imperial family, these power-hungry princes only cared about their interests, and there was no room for sentiment!

“Mr. Mason.”

Before Sean could refuse, Carl preemptively said, “It was because you attended my banquet that you had a conflict with Gerard, lost your friend, and completely offended Prince Ashby.”

“So!”

“I have the responsibility and obligation to send people to protect your safety!”

“If you can’t even accept this, then you don’t consider me a friend!”

With these words, Sean was silenced!

He had no choice but to accept and said, “Thank you, Prince Carl.”

“As friends, it’s a bit distant for Mr. Mason to always call me Prince Carl.”

Carl laughed, “Since I am just a few years older than you, why not, like my cousin, call me Carl directly.”

Carl???

Sean was taken aback again, not knowing why, but even though Carl was the one trying to get closer to him, Julia’s face inexplicably reddened a bit more.

What the hell???

There seemed to be something fishy about this!

Afterward, Carl ordered the entire Jade Restaurant to be reserved for Sean and his companions to stay. More than a dozen bodyguards guarded the entrance, and five Dark Realm fighters were stationed downstairs, making the place as secure as an iron barrel. Not even a mosquito could fly in!

Carl and Julia took their leave, while Sean, Pupil Wolf, and Spirit Wolf returned to their room on the third floor to rest.

The Jefferson family had suffered a devastating tragedy, and the capital city was bound to be anything but peaceful that night.

As for Sean…

As the instigator of the whole affair, he acted as if nothing had happened. After returning to his room, he washed up, changed into clean clothes, and lay on the bed with his phone, making a video call to Cecelia.

It was 9 PM. Surely, his mother-in-law wouldn’t be checking on her daughter now?

Moments later, the video connected!

“Daddy!”

The first thing heard from the phone was Phyllis’s excited voice. In the video, Cecelia and Phyllis were lying in bed, hugging each other. Marcia’s figure was nowhere to be seen, so Sean breathed a sigh of relief.

He smiled and asked, “Did Phyllis miss Daddy?”

“Yes!”

Phyllis nodded, pouted, and moved closer to the phone camera, signaling, “Daddy, I want a kiss.”

Mwah!

Mwah, mwah, mwah!

Sean also playfully pouted and played a kissing game with Phyllis through the phone. Phyllis laughed like a blossoming flower, extremely happy, and proudly said, “Daddy, do you know?”

“Today, wolf uncles started teaching me martial arts. They said I’m a one-in-a-million prodigy, extraordinarily gifted, and highly intelligent. As long as I study hard, I’ll soon become a super invincible hero girl…”

“Then, I’ll take Mommy to find Daddy and accompany Daddy in fighting the bad guys and saving the world.”

The little girl was dead serious, talking as if it were all true.

However!

After being stimulated by the Colored Glaze Holy Water, Phyllis’s unique bloodline had been activated. Although she was too young, Spirit Wolf had used Ladies Star Grass and other medicinal plants to suppress her bloodline to some extent. Nonetheless, when it came to cultivation, she indeed had unparalleled advantages compared to ordinary people!

Calling her a prodigy was not an exaggeration at all!
