After thanking Prince Sébastien, lady Bridget become busy, she asked for an opportunity to cook for her son. Prince Sébastien agreed to it.
The Zack household suddenly went into a festive mood. The servants naturally find out about the young master of the house has been found. Not that many of them knew he was missing.
Princess Sébastien hated noise and since the Zack resident became so noisy he decided to take a walk.
Princess Ellen noticed this so she followed after him. When prince Sébastien noticed she was following after him, he stopped in his track and allowed her to catch up with him.
"Are you taking a walk?" she asked when she saw him waiting for him.
"yes," He nodded his head.
"then I will come with come with you," princess Ellen offered.
"No, go inside I will not belong," He said. Princess Ellen did not expect him to reject her but seeing that his voice did not sound nice and pleasant like always, she did not argue and turned back into the house.
Prince Sébastien remain standing and did not make a move until he was sure that princess Ellen was safe inside. He had noticed that they were been followed. This was the reason he had slowed down on their way to Ann''s old house but the people following behind did not make a move.
He also asked Richard to go inside the house but these people still did not make a more. So he concluded that they were just following him.
To prove this he decided to go out himself. If they were waiting for the best time then they would attack him now that he was alone but if their target is his sunshine then they will make a move now that he was away.
It was late in the afternoon, so the street was calm and Quiet. As prince Sébastien walked into the woods he could feel the peer of eyes following him.
When he got deep in the wood, he pretended to be tired and sat down to take a rest. He closed his eyes and pretend that he did not notice he was been followed.
When the group of five saw him stop they immediately hide. "Do you think he noticed we are following him?" one of the men asked.
"I do not think so, look he is so relaxed," another replied.
"you have a point, if he noticed he would have at least looked behind. He is so carefree. I thought he was rumored to be very sensitive," another said.
"if you do not know how to talk keep quiet," the prince was irritated. These people did not know how to keep quiet. He was beginning to think that his brother sent this bunch of fools to get him killed.
"Your highness, I am good with arrows. If I fire a shot now I will definitely not miss the mark," the quiet man said.
The second prince of Phrygia was irritated. "Do you have a problem following instructions?" he shut the man a look.
When these men saw that the prince was unwilling to make a move they cursed him in their hearts. They did not believe that I''d the five of them were to go at him together they will be unable to kill him.
Unfortunately they hard a coward as a prince to lead them. The four men could already think of the firm and Glory they will receive if they killed the sleeping prince.
Although they had this thought they still obeyed the prince and did not try to attack the prince.
When prince Sébastien realized that the men did not want to attack him and they were just following him, he got up and returned to Zack''s residence.
When he got into the house, he was led by a maid to the dining hall. Jeffery was seated. There was chatting and laughing but prince Sébastien felt irritated. ''Too noisy,'' This was the only thought on his mind but he stopped himself from complaining.
As soon as the meal was served, the room became quiet as they ate. Prince Sébastien felt relief. Lady Sam kept putting food into Jeffrey''s plate. It was as though she wanted him to eat food worth the ten years he has been missing.
Jeffrey thank her and tried to eat as much as possible. He did not know that having a mother to care for him will be so good.
He eat with a faint smile since he knew he would not be returning to the family. At least he wanted to make them happy, even if it was just this once.
Prince Sébastien did not really eat, he was trying to find out the motive of the people following him. Although he heard their conversation in the bush, he could not help but worry that they just said those things to make him relaxed.
Although the table was quiet, they still chatted among themselves a little. When the meal was over, they all returned to the welcoming hall. The atmosphere was indeed happy.
"Do you think we should throw a feast to celebrate finding our son?" Lady Bridget asked. The smile on her face was beautiful and warm. She directed this question to Lawrence but before he had the chance to answer, Jeffery beat him to it.
"There will be no need, I have no plans to return to Bozoa," he said. When the husband and wife heard this the smile on their faces vanished.
If it were to be another prince they would have requested the king to ask on their behalf but they knew that even king George will not want to get involved.
The couple suddenly became helpless, they have been hoping and praying to find their son again but now that they did they could not even claim him.
The once joyful atmosphere became awkward. No one knew what to say or do to ease the atmosphere. After a short moment, Lord Zorander cleared his throat.
"Your highness, our request may sound unreasonable but Jefferson is the only son of our household. Is it impossible for us to have him back?" lord Zorander asked. His voice was calm and respectful. To be honest he did not know how the prince will react to it.
Jeffrey seems to have been working close to the prince he was almost a hundred percent sure that prince Sébastien will reject him immediately.
Prince Sébastien looked at the old man, a small smirk played o. His lips but no one noticed. "it is not impossible, it just that I doubt you will be unable to afford the compensation," prince Sébastien said.
When Jeffrey heard this he knew that the prince will really let him go, if they could afford the compensation but he also knew they couldn''t afford it. Prince Sébastien was never the type to easily let go of the things he considered as valuable.
The other members of the family did not know this so they immediately asked what he wanted. Lord Zorander felt that it might not be so impossible.. As long as his request was something that existed.
