The Rhyme of the Depositary

029 - SEASON 2

Mama?

Alice's consciousness was in tremendous turmoil. What Klayver had said left him and William helpless. Alice's mouth opened without words.

Is their relationship mother and child? Oh my God, what is this reality. The world is making a new joke.

"You guys?" Alice's question hung into the air. There were no more words he could say to reflect his surprise.

"I don't care if he's my son-in-law. If you keep your stubborn distance and choose not to re-confess yourself to the Leicester family, Alice's brain is the last sight you'll remember from her."

The Queen is not kidding. He removed the gun holder and began to press the trigger towards Alice. William wants to protect, but is soon deterred by The Queen's men. The eyes of this woman highlighted ruthlessly mercilessly.

Alice closed her eyes waiting for a tense moment. He wasn't sure Klayver would be willing to defend until the end. He was used to having a less fortunate fate. Perhaps, this was the culmination of all the bad luck that came his way.

"You won this time, Mom. I'll go back to recognizing the Leicester family and re-establish a good relationship with you."

The Queen glanced at Klayver and still doubted his intentions. "You swear?" challenge seriously.

"I promise. You know I never break a promise." Klayver's words contained anger. His eyes turned darker than usual.

"alright. I like your decision." The Queen smiled triumphantly. There was a faint happy glow from both of his eyes.

Alice who started to feel the situation reopened her eyes. He glanced at Klayver timidly, not daring to open a single word. Tongue's cow. His face was pale. Blood did not flow smoothly in the veins of her beautiful face.

"It's okay. Everything's fine." Klayver walked up to Alice and pulled the frail body of his wife in a warm embrace.

Alice sobbed loudly in Klayver's chest. After the danger passed, he only felt a late shock. He hugged Klayver tightly and submerged himself under his protection.

This chest feels warm. Offering the strength he wanted to borrow for a moment. This arm was sturdy, as if ready to accept Alice at every fall she experienced.

Just this time Alice realized, Klayver's chest was capable of having this deep meaning. The power that the clayver channeled was able to make him rise again.

After a long sobbing, Alice lifted her gaze and looked at Klayver with a slightly guilty look. Has he behaved like a child?

Klayver looked at his wife's chaotic face. Both of his eyes looked clear with tears. His gaze was plain like a child. Her hair was messy, framing her ayu face.

"It's okay. You're safe as long as I'm alive. You hear that, Alice? There will be no danger as long as I still have my life to protect you" Klayver said softly. He slowly dipped the top of Alice's hair and threw a warm smile.

Alice was carried away by Klayver's attitude and smiled in relief. Klayver is a person who does not like to brag. He is also not a person who likes to make false promises. If he said he would protect Alice, then that was the reality. There was no lie that he created.

The Queen stared at the pair of humans in front of her who were still embracing the friendly. His eyes shone with a new shock. He looked at the two of them and his lips looked slightly stiff.

This kind of scene was a sight that was difficult for him to randomly find. Although he had not seen his son for a long time, The Queen knew quite well who Klayver really was. Such closeness is a special closeness for Klayver.

"You're lucky enough to have such an amazingly beautiful wife. Want to introduce me officially?" The Queen smiled gently. He acted as if he had never threatened Alice before.

Alice flinched with the woman's emotional change. How could he switch stances in just a matter of seconds.

"Don't look at me like that. Since Klayver has promised to return to the extended family, I certainly have no intention of killing you, Miss. By the way, my name is Violin Leicester. And your husband, his real name is Tristan Klayver Leicester. Clayver is his middle name. I don't mind changing Tristan's nickname to Klayver. That's also his name."

The Queen smiled warmly, but was greeted with a deadly gaze from Klayver. The man still could not accept the reckless actions the woman had done to Alice.

"You expect us to accept you with open arms after what you've done? Dream, Mom. Even though I promised to return to the Leicester family, it doesn't mean that I'll welcome you warmly every time you come to visit me. Make a price for yourself. Don't lower your grades" said the sadistic Klayver. He looked at his mother as if ready to fight with an old enemy.

Alice who felt this hostility would tap back, patting Klayver's arm gently to calm down. After all, they are outnumbered. Although Klayver can defend herself, Alice can get caught up in their feud and end up tragically at any time. Alice obviously didn't want any of that to happen.

"alright. I'm sorry I used your wife, Klayver. All that just to get you back. I'm not really serious about hurting him.You should know that well." Violin apologized sincerely. Alice could see the seriousness of her words. A motherly expression seemed to come out naturally. Inevitably, Alice was affected.

"Already, Klayver. Your mother had no other meaning."

Maybe Klayver and his mother's relationship began to crack since eight years ago. But Alice still does not know what the reason is underlying them and makes Violin look for the existence of Klayver half dead.

Violin smiled slightly, giving the order behind her soft words. Both mother and son, they all had domineering characters. Each has a desire to rule over each other.

"Remember, your wife's identity I already know. If you return to escape, Alice will receive the fruits of your actions!" threaten Violin meaningfully. He passed away followed by all his men.

Alice still stood stunned. Violin knows this house and knows its name. Turns out Violin had gathered complete information regarding Klayver's development. Perhaps after Daniel passed on the information he got, Violin followed up on her own to complete the latest Klayver data.

"Wait!" Klayver held off Violin's departure. The old woman turned her head and raised her eyebrows, asking without a sound.

"Do you know of my existence through a man named Daniel?" ask Kalyver suddenly.

Right now, Alice's heart seemed to fall to the floor and was slowly crushed. In such a situation, the man still remembered Daniel. Damn indeed.

"A good guess." Violin chuckles. His son still has a keen intuition. No doubt he is indeed his flesh blood.

"Did Daniel just sell you my information? Or on the other side who can hunt me?" klayver asked coldly. He had already guessed it would be like this end. His eyes became more and more hateful for him to point at Daniel. Honey, that guy's not here.

"Only to me. I told him to shut up. I guarantee he won't divulge your identity to the other party. If not, I'll take his own life." Violin had been thinking about this condition carefully.

Daniel is a man who has worked for him for a long time and is quite trustworthy. Violin knew him well enough. He was sure that the man would not act out much and create trouble.

"You sure?" Kalyver still looked at Violin suspiciously. Honestly, he still doesn't trust Daniel.

"Do you think I'm crazy, Klayver? There's no way I'm hiring people who can't keep their mouths shut. After all, you're still my son. Your life means enough. Why would I feed someone else who could endanger you?" Violin explained her opinion seriously.

Klayver is valuable. So he searched for it for years. There was no way Violin would drag her own son into ruin by hiring an incompetent spy.

"alright. I believe." Klayver gave a small nod, letting Violin and her entire minions go from her sight.

After their departure, Klayver told William to rest and gently guide Alice upstairs.

"You're not hurt, are you?" ask Klayver to worry.

"No. I'm doing fine. Where are you going these two days, Klayver? I'm afraid you're having trouble." Alice was worried again. He looked at Klayver and tried to find something wrong. Looks like Klayver's fine. He's got no problem at all.

"I've done a lot of business." Klayver was silent for a long time. He barely slept these two days because he was busy hunting down people who harmed him. The first day he did it with William's organization. He killed four more people.

The second day Klayver needed to finish off someone strong. He used William's men to find information. The rest, he moved on his own because he needed to infiltrate completely. It was unexpected that his business took a long time.

"This home security alarm system needs to be fixed." Klayver gave the input that Alice immediately embraced. She's still traumatized by being infiltrated by someone else in her own home. Alice hoped that once the security system was fixed, it would reduce the other party from attacking her again.

"Why is your mother looking for you? Was your relationship not good before?"

It makes little sense to imagine a mother who does not know the whereabouts of her child. There must be a story that Klayver has triggered him to hide from Violin for years.

Seeing Klayver speechless, Alice thought she would never answer her curiosity. They continued walking down the stairs towards the room without a sound. Klayver entered the room and took off the shirt he was wearing. He felt sultry after going through the incident tonight. The sweat dots made Klayver's shoulders golden in color.

"He made mistakes in the past. I find it hard to forgive him. That's why I chose to leave and give up the Leicester family's identity for eight years. Who would have thought that he had been looking for me all this time and forced me to go back home?"

Alice remained silent. It seemed that Klayver already had a new faith in him so that he could share the story of the past with Alice.

"Well, she's still a mother. Any big mistake can never break the blood relationship between you."

Alice revealed her heart. He had long lost his parents, so that if he was faced with Klayver's situation, he would definitely forgive his mother at all costs. We only appreciate the value of someone after being left far away.

"Let's forget about this. Alice, we've bet before. If Daniel is the cause of my identity leaking to the other side, I'll hunt him down and you'll give me one night. So, when are you going to pay off your pay this time. Give me rights as a husband!"
