After leaving Aunt Dayana's house, I took a train to my grandparents' house. Actually, I'm already a bit late, after all, I should have been there early in the morning.
Well, the reason I was late was because I was playing with Susan, but I couldn't say that to my grandparents.
The trip to my grandparents' house was quick. They lived near my aunt's house, so I got there in less than fifteen minutes.
As soon as I was there, I saw grandma waiting for me outside.
"Claus!" He walked towards me with an anxious look and hugged me firmly. "I heard what happened."
I hugged him and kissed him on the cheek. "Don't worry about that, grandma. I have my own plans."
Grandma kept looking at me without changing her expression. How could he not know about my situation? Even though he heard my words, he thought it was nothing more than me trying to calm down here.
I breathed in my heart. Well, it's obvious he thinks that way.
"Come, your grandfather and aunt Sera are inside."
I nodded and followed him.
My grandparents were called Steven Quin and Salana D'fine, respectively. They were both in their fifties, but as they practiced a little mana, they more closely resembled people in their forties.
Aunt Sera, on the other hand, is my oldest aunt, she is 36 this year and mother of Andrea. As for his appearance, he had the features of my mother's family, with black hair and black eyes and a curvy and well-endowed body.
When I entered the house, I found Sera's grandfather and aunt sitting around the wooden table. They looked at me with a serious expression before sighing.
"You are here" said my grandfather.
I nodded respectfully. "Grandfather."
“Come sit,” he said and pointed to an empty seat. "Salana, tell a waiter to bring Claus lunch."
Grandma nodded and left.
As soon as Grandma left, grandfather turned his eyes back to me. "Claus, what are you planning?"
I was silent for a moment before opening my lips. "Don't worry, grandfather, I have a plan. It's just that I can't talk about it right now." Besides, I still have to convince my sister about that.
My grandfather looked at me fixedly before sighing. "Your mom and I just talked about it. Actually, you and Dina could easily abandon the name of the emperor and adopt our name. If you're not a prince anymore, then maybe the emperor and empress will stop making things difficult for you. "
I looked at grandfather with a surprised expression.I can't believe he proposed something like that.
But, precisely because of that, I shook my head. "No way."
Grandfather and aunt looked at me. I was sure that my current expression was so firm and determined as that of grandfather.
"You know that the emperor and empress will not care about our surnames. Moreover, as princes, we at least have a little protection afforded by our bloodline. If we abandon our family name, then some of our people will lose their fear. It can even involve family. "
When they heard my words, grandfather and aunt sighed.
"I know you won't agree" Auntie said with a complicated expression. "After all, you and Dina are as hard as your mother."
I was silent hearing it. I could feel care and care in their words. Despite knowing that their actions meant going against the emperor, grandfather and aunt still advised him.
Of course, if the emperor tries to destroy my mother's family, I will stop him, and I have the power to stop him. To them, the current situation was a dangerous crisis, but to me, it was just a joke that I could end at any moment.
My grandfather and aunt did not know. And even so, they were determined to defend Dina and me.
In the end, blood was thicker than water, no matter what world it was.
"The goddamn emperor! Is destroying Silna's life not enough that she also wants to destroy your life ?!"
I smiled wryly and shook my head. "Actually, I still don't understand why an emperor is like this. Is he not supposed to love mom hard?"
Aunt's expression turned angry. "b*that bastard! Love her so much? Huh! He's nothing more than a b*obsessed bastard!"
Aunt, lower your voice. Aren't you afraid that someone might hear you insult the emperor? I said in my heart.
Well, I admit he's a b*jerk.
Grandfather sighed sadly. A gloomy expression appeared on his face as he recalled the past. He then looked at me with complicated eyes.
"Sighs. Your mother suffered at the time. Actually, even though your mother died after giving birth to you, the main one responsible for her death is still the emperor." I put on a focused expression and grandfather kept talking.
"You know, although many say that the emperor loved your mother very much, the fact is that his love was misguided. When she saw your mother for the first time, she was instantly obsessed with your mother.
"The emperor tried many methods to make Silna fall in love with him, but your mother always rejected him. Back then, your mother already had someone she loved, so she didn't want to be the emperor's wife.
"However, when the emperor found out about it, he was furious. So, he secretly ordered to kill the man your mother loved."
