Chapter 1163: Chapter 1162:- Your Majesty, I want to take a 23 months long Vacation

”Brother Wahid!”

Alen walked toward Wahid, and the two brothers immediately embraced each other. There was a great deal that Alen wanted to say to him, especially after learning everything that had happened during the attack on Axel City.

”I heard about what you did for our son.” Alen said after they separated from the hug. His expression became emotional as he placed both hands on Wahid’s shoulders.

”Words cannot express how thankful we are to you. You saved our child’s life. If you hadn’t been there that night, we might have lost Aditya.” Wahid simply shook his head with a warm smile. To him, what he had done was not something that required gratitude. He had never considered saving Aditya to be a favor toward Alen and Elena.

”I don’t have any children of my own, but Aditya is the only child in our family.” Wahid replied calmly.

”I have told you this before as well. I never felt that I needed to have children of my own because I have always seen Aditya as my own child.”

Wahid briefly looked toward Zahira and Yuna before continuing. ”And my wives feel the same way. To the three of us, Aditya has never been merely our nephew. We watched him grow up, and we have always loved him as if he were our own son.”

Standing beside Wahid, Zahira and Yuna both nodded with gentle smiles. Neither of them disagreed with a single word their husband had said. Even though they had never given birth to children of their own, they had never felt that their family was incomplete because Aditya had always occupied that place in their hearts.

Because of that, when Aditya’s life had been in danger, Wahid had never stopped to consider whether he should risk himself to save his nephew. In his heart, there had never been any difference between protecting Aditya and protecting a son of his own.

At the same time, Riya and a few of the other girls gathered around Elena and gently patted her back, helping her calm down. Surrounded by the warmth of her family and her son’s future wives, Elena gradually stopped crying and wiped the remaining tears from her eyes. After everything that had happened, being reunited with so many people she loved at once was almost overwhelming.

Once she had calmed herself, Elena turned her attention toward Wahid. ”Brother Wahid, how have you been?” She asked warmly as she approached him.

Although Wahid was technically Elena’s cousin, their relationship had always been much closer than what that simple title suggested. Wahid had lost his father at a young age, and afterward, Malakor Harrington had taken responsibility for raising him.

Malakor had never treated Wahid differently from his own children, giving him the same parental love, care, and guidance. Because of this, Wahid had never grown up feeling that he lacked a father’s affection, and Elena had naturally come to regard him more like a brother than a cousin.

Seeing Wahid again after such a long separation brought back many memories for Elena. However, he was not the only person she was happy to reunite with. Her gaze soon moved toward Zahira and Yuna, and a bright smile immediately appeared on her face.

Elena happily approached the two women and pulled them into a warm hug. Zahira and Yuna were not merely Wahid’s wives to her. Elena had known both women for a very long time and had always treated them like her own sisters. After years of separation and everything their family had gone through, Elena was genuinely happy to finally be reunited with them.

For the first time in many years, so many members of their family were standing together in the same place again.

”Alfred. It’s good to see you again, my friend.” The moment their eyes met, both men smiled. Alfred stepped forward, and the two warmly embraced each other. Although one had once been the Emperor of the Celestial Dragon Empire while the other served as the royal butler, their relationship had long gone beyond that of master and servant.

”Your Majesty. Every time I see you, I cannot help but feel nostalgic.” Alfred replied with a smile after they separated.

”It reminds me of all the wonderful years we spent together with the royal family.”

To outsiders, Alfred might have been nothing more than the Head Butler of the Dragon Palace. However, everyone who truly knew the royal family understood that Alfred was practically one of them.
