Rise of the Malactric Heir

Chapter 224 Admiration Of A Child

After sitting down, Adora started to feel hungry and sighed.

"Shall we get dinner?" Adora asked.

"Yeah, I'm hungry," Vince admitted.

"All right, guys," Adora said as she stood up, and they all went to the dining hall, where the maids had just finished setting up the food.

"All right, let's eat, I'm hungry too," Adora said as she sat down, and they all took their food and started eating.

"Adora, he's now calm, thanks," Kylla said, handing her the phone, which she took.

"You're welcome," she replied before continuing to eat.

While they were eating, Adora noticed how much Vince had grown and how well he could care for himself.

'He really is like his father,' she thought as she sipped her drink and exhaled deeply.

A short time after Adora finished eating, Vince did as well, and he began yawning.

"Are you waiting for your father?" she inquired.

"He texted, he'll be home in half an hour, he's always home on time, but the meeting is taking a long time, he is getting angry but it's completely fine," he responded, and she smiled and stood up.

"Come on, how does putting you to bed tonight sound?" He smiled brightly as the others looked at them when she asked.

"Really?" he asked.

"Yeah," she responded.

"That's fantastic, Adora," he said as he hugged her tightly and she patted him on the head.

"Come on," she said then walked out of the dining hall with the child.

"He adores the princess," Alix said.

"Yeah, he does," Nina replied as they finished eating and then went to their rooms to freshen up and relax since they trained very hard and had a lot more to do.

"So your father is never late?" Regardless of how busy he is, he is always there for you?" Adora asked as she led Vince to his room, where he lay back on his bed and she covered him with his blanket and then adjusted the AC temperature.

"Yeah, he's always here to be honest," he replied, and Adora smiled as she sat beside him, and he hugged her tightly while closing his eyes.

"Papa has a difficult life; I want to grow faster so that I can help him; he deserves the best... Adora, I'm glad you came as well," he said and she smiled as she stared at him while running her fingers through his hair.

"I'm glad I came too, Vince," she replied as he fell asleep and she repositioned him on the bed then kissed him on the forehead.

"Good night, Vince, sweet dreams," she said then left his room and went to hers.

After Adora went back to her room, closed her door, took her clothes off and went to freshen up.

When she finished, she changed into her nightdress, opened the lock on the door, then went into her balcony with her hair open and she sniffed in the cold, fresh air with a smile on her face.

"Adora," Nina said as she rapped on the princess's door.

"It's open," she said then Nina entered the room and Adora turned to look at her.

"What is it, Nina?" she inquired.

"There is a mall in the city, and I discovered a store within it that sells amazing outfits for girls, jewelleries, shoes, anything, perfect dresses for balls, and so on; they have some amazing dresses, and you can find their store online; can we go there first tomorrow?" Adora smiled as she asked.

"Is that it?" Adora inquired, and Nina nodded.

"Sure, sweetie, anything else?" Adora asked.

"I- Is there somewhere you'd like to look?" she asked as she approached Adora, smiling as the cool breeze caressed her cheeks.

"This is nice," Nina commented.

"I don't need to go anywhere else, I thought finding the perfect store would be a lot of stress, but you did the work for us, saved us a lot of time, and I hope we get what we want there as well," she replied.

"You're welcome, I'm kind of excited to see you in royal attire, even if it's just a dress, I haven't seen you in those, I am pretty sure you will look great, no matter what you wear," she said and Adora sighed.

"I didn't feel the need to wear any, I avoided royal functions, the last one I went to, I nearly beat one of the royals for insulting my father, Kyris's bother made sure I kept my cool, I avoid certain royals, I understand why people hate some of them too," she replied, and Nina smiled then patted Adora on the shoulder and at the same time, the sky lit up in a green wave.

"Guys, look outside," Nina exclaimed, even though the castle was well sealed due to the fully equipped AC, because Adora's room door was open, the others heard Nina and went out onto their balconies, while others went onto the lawn and smiled while looking up at the sky.

"Seems like the king has arrived," Alix said as he entered Adora's room, and she looked at him as he approached her and Nina, then they looked at the king, who emerged from a car and smiled up at the sky.

"This happens near a full moon," he explained, and Adora smiled.

"Your highness, Vince is asleep," Adora said and the king looked up at her with a genuine smile.

"Thank you for looking after him for me, I was running late," he replied.

"It's fine, go ahead and have dinner, then relax, you have a lot to do tomorrow as well," she said and he grinned.

"Good night, your highness," they all said.

"Good night guys," he replied, then went into the castle and the others went back to their rooms.

"I see you come in and out of Adora's room as you please, nice," Nina teased, as Alix tapped her on the shoulder and she laughed.

"Looking for a fight, Nina?" he asked, smiling.

"You talk about Adora's smile that is an evil smile, saying, I will kill you, no thanks," she responded and Alix scoffed.

"I'm going to bed now, good night everyone," Nina said.

"Good night," they replied, and Adora looked at Alix after she left her room.
