'No, there's nothing fishy. You can't forget about him. You're just lying to yourself!" Leia said. She had hit the nail on the head, pointing out Renee's exact issue.
However, Liam didn't elaborate on that topic. He looked at Renee, feeling rather sorry for her. "You guys went through a lot just to visit me. Get some good rest. If Amber's marrying Mateo, I'm afraid I have a tough battle to fight."
Liam knew Benjamin well. He had been an ordinary man who worked hard to gain his current power and status. Aside from his wisdom and his luck, he was vicious. The moment he thought that Amber had let Liam go, he wouldn't hesitate to kill Liam to prevent any trouble.
Liam didn't mind if he survived it or not. However, he would never easily admit defeat if it might burden Renee and Leia.
"Is he that scary?" Leia asked.
She was a naive simpleton from the upper elite circle, ignorant of life's hardships, with romance being the only exception. She couldn't imagine how terrible people could be, and even thought that Benjamin was quite nice.
"You made Amber's father sound like he's a horrible guy, but I think he's not bad. He didn't drive us out. Plus, he got us a nice room and a doctor to treat Ren's leg. He's welcoming us sincerely."
Benjamin's servants gave them new clothes, toiletries, and special delicacies in just a day. The servants also held a welcome ceremony for Renee and Liam. Although Benjamin didn't appear, his warm hospitality was evident.
From this alone, Leia felt that Benjamin wasn't as horrible as Liam had claimed.
"Hah! He did a good job-on the surface. You'll know in the future," Liam snorted.
He recalled how kind Benjamin had been when he first came here by accident. The man had even regarded him as a foster son. He naively assumed that Benjamin admired him and wanted to befriend him.
However, Benjamin would turn hostile the second his interests were in jeopardy.
After that day, everything was peaceful.
Both Renee and Leia stayed in the fort comfortably. Occasionally, Amber and Liam would come to spend some time with them. No one tried to replace fault with them.
After professional treatment, Renee's leg almost recovered and the wound started to form a scab. She could now get out of bed and walk around.
"We'll get out of here once your leg recovers," Leia said eagerly as she applied the scar removal cream on Renee's wound. "Why don't we go traveling before leaving? Draty, the god of their religion, is popular here. There are a lot of amazing stone carved statues. The customs here are pretty interesting too."
"I hope we'll get the chance," Renee said calmly.
In truth, she wasn't very happy. An uneasy feeling kept troubling her. Everything ran so smoothly, it gave her a feeling that something bad was about to happen.
'I'm sure we will in a few days." Leia laughed.
She finished applying the cream, then helped Renee get out of bed.
'The weather's nice today. Let's go take a walk. We've been here for so long, but we didn't even get out of the gate. I want to look around," she added.
"Sure. I'll go with you."
