Arielle Moore and Vinson Nightshire -
Chapter 1519
Chapter 1519 Going Back Home
Since the decision had been made, Arielle intended to fly back home as soon as possible after delaying the plan for approximately a month. Upon finishing her meal, she made her way to the palace with Vinson. She wanted her father to grant her several visas in order to bring a couple more individuals from Chanaea. Without a visa, traveling would be inconvenient for them.
Lately, Dylan had been busy with some national affairs and had very little time to visit Arielle. When he heard from Sybil that she came, he stopped working at once, left his study, and greeted Arielle with a bright grin.
"What have you been up to recently that you had no time for your father?" Ever since Arielle acknowledged and accepted him as her biological father, he became more casual and less cautious around her. Arielle was delighted to see that change in him though she did not comment about it. She welcomed their newfound method of interaction as father and daughter as it made her feel more comfortable. Conversely, she would not have liked it if he continued to be courteous and faintly aloof just because he felt sorry for being absent for over two decades of her life.
"I'm sorry. I should have visited you more often." Though Arielle answered in an indifferent tone, she could not contain the smile in her eyes.
"It's quite troublesome for me to make a trip, so please come see me every now and then."
Dylan did not make an obvious request for her to come more frequently, knowing that she might be busy with her life too.
As much as Arielle wanted to say yes, she paused for a moment and changed her reply. "Dad, I'm here to inform you that I plan to go back to Chanaea these two days."
All of a sudden, Dylan's smile stiffened, but he pretended as though nothing had happened. "This is nothing new, isn't it? We've talked about it for quite some time now. Go ahead. You can always return after a while."
His words carried an intense reluctance to let her go.
After all, the father and daughter duo had only reconciled not too long ago, so he did not want to see her leave so soon.
What can I say or do as a father? My child is all grown up now, and she has a life of her own. How can I be a stumbling block to her?
Seeing that his heart grew heavy, Arielle felt rather sorry for him. Nevertheless, she could not stay any longer because she had something urgent to deal with. Anyway, it's not like I'm not coming back anymore. I'm only leaving for a short while.
She uttered, "Dad, can you give me a few more visas? Otherwise, it'll be so hard to get into the country when I come back."
Immediately, Dylan approved the documents and passed them to Sybil. The latter then brought the visas to the noble who was in charge of foreign affairs to get a stamp.
Since Arielle was leaving soon, Dylan decided to take a break from work and spend some time with her.
"Dad, you don't need to keep me company if you're busy. It's okay." Arielle was cool about it because she knew that it was just a temporary farewell, and they would surely meet again.
"It's all right. There's nothing much for me to do as a king anyway. It's not like you don't know that," Dylan insisted with a smile.
With that, Arielle let him be.
She had always been interested in the history of Turlen. Since Dylan wanted to spend time with her, she thought of getting him to share with her great tales from Turlenian history. In the end, Arielle did nothing the entire day besides eating, going to the bathroom, and listening attentively to Dylan telling her stories from the past. He even engaged her with multiple reference books and historical records.
During their journey home, Arielle told Vinson, "I never imagined Turlen as a magical country in the past because it has barred all types of diplomatic relations with other nations. As a result, its medical field is extremely outdated. Anyhow, Dad is in charge now. With him around, I'm sure Turlen will only get better by the day."
Vinson nodded in agreement. Right when he was about to say something, he noticed something unusual, and his facial expression changed drastically.
