Western Fantasy: The Princess Wants to Save the World

Chapter 128 More Important Than Life

It's too risky.

Babbitt himself was doubting himself. If he revealed some information when he met Valken and others, the other party might guess his identity.

Cecilia used a little more strength in her hands.

Babbitt stopped and looked back at her.

I have to say that Babbitt's eyes are so watery that one can even say that he looks at dogs with deep affection.

Facing the suspicion and questioning hidden in Babbitt's eyes, Cecilia showed a little fatigue, "I'm a little tired today, why don't we talk about it tomorrow?"

Babbitt's gaze stayed on Cecilia for a long time, and finally he said, "Of course, I'll take you to visit the room where you will be staying during this period."

Cecilia breathed a sigh of relief, finally leaving this troubled place.

When the two of them were almost on the corridor, Cecilia heard a familiar voice behind her, "Duke Babbitt?"

Babbitt turned around and saw that it was Valken who called him.

Cecilia heard the footsteps getting closer and closer, "I was just about to go look for you, Duke."

Does it have to be such a coincidence?

In a corner where Cecilia couldn't see, Babbitt gave a triumphant smile.

If he doesn't go to find Valken today, Valken will definitely come to find him.

Meeting you is just a matter of sooner or later.

He wanted to see how his young fiancée could avoid revealing her true colors.

Valken walked forward and saw clearly that the two were holding hands.

I couldn't help but feel nervous. Where did this woman come from?

Look at the body shape and size...

Why does it look familiar?

Babbitt gently squeezed Cecilia's hand, and Cecilia turned around and lifted her skirt to salute him.

The moment Valken saw Cecilia's face clearly, his mind went blank. Why was Her Highness here?

And he looks so close to Duke Babbitt?

Babbitt was still introducing the two people to the side, "Your Excellency, let me introduce you, this is my fiancée Anasta."

Before he finished his words, Babbitt naturally put his arm around Cecilia's waist and pulled her into his arms.

Cecilia tried her best to be less stiff.

"My dear, this is Valken, the leader of the Royal Knights from Petra, who I was planning to take you to meet."

Cecilia quickly extended her hand, "I think you are an important person from Petra. Please forgive me for coming out in a hurry today and not dressing up properly. I am sorry for treating you badly."

Valken's eyes fell on the bony hand on Cecilia's waist.

He was very sure that the person in front of him was His Highness.

But shouldn't His Highness be in Petra?

How did she get here? And who followed her?

Babbitt took in the reactions of the two men. "Sir Valken?"

Valken came back to his senses, held Cecilia's hand, and said apologetically, "I'm sorry, you look a bit like an acquaintance of mine in Petra, and I was a little confused for a moment."

Cecilia didn't know whether Valken recognized her or thought this was a trap set by Babbitt.

"You must be joking. How can a commoner like me compare to the great men in Petra?"

Cecilia put on a perfect smile and withdrew her hand.

Babbitt took a step back while holding Cecilia in his arms. "It seems that person is very important to you, Your Excellency."

The perfect possessiveness in his eyes almost made Cecilia believe that this guy really loved his "fiancée".

Valken didn't fully understand what was going on, but he could still hear the hostility in Babbitt's words, "That person is more important to me than my life."

Cecilia was sweating in her heart. It was enough. If she continued talking about it, the situation would become untenable.

Unexpectedly, Valken changed the subject and said, "Now that I have taken a closer look, it is true that I was too timid to see clearly. I am afraid that the person I know would not dare to come here to look for me."

Cecilia: ...

very good.

Although she knew that this was Valken's way of smoothing things over, she still felt a little unhappy.

It would not be an exaggeration to say that Babbitt was standing very close to her now, and Cecilia could not show her emotions, so she just maintained that decent yet awkward smile.

Babbitt was already preparing to take Cecilia away. "Captain, if you have anything to say, let's talk about it tomorrow. My fiancée is a little tired, I want to take her to rest."

Valken subconsciously wanted to stop him, but when he met Cecilia's gaze, he swallowed the words back.

Watching the two people leave.

Damn it, is this guy going to sleep in the same bed with His Highness?

On the way to the room where Cecilia was staying, Babbitt did not take his hand away from Cecilia's waist.

Along the way, I met many servants who were still on duty.

Without exception, these servants are all orcs.

When these orcs saw him and Babbitt from afar, they lowered their heads and were extremely humble.

For some reason, Cecilia felt that Babbitt didn't seem very happy.

Could it be that the meeting with Valken just now gave him some clues?

Can't you?

The newspapers in Aslade City couldn't even recognize who the princess was.

There was no newspaper in Hu Guzhi City, and she hadn't found any other means of communication.

Logically speaking, Babbitt should not be able to recognize who he is.

Babbitt personally arranged a room for Cecilia.

The room was right next to his own master bedroom.

Cecilia originally thought that Babbitt would send her to the door, say a few polite words, and that would be the end of the performance for the day.

Unexpectedly, Babbitt released his hand from his waist, grasped the door handle, pushed the door open, and looked like he wanted to go in with him.

Babbitt, who had not spoken a word all the way, turned on the lights in the room and began to introduce the layout of the room to Cecilia one by one.

Although it is called a room, it is actually a small suite inside, with a study, closet, bathroom and small living room.

"This used to be my master bedroom. If you encounter any danger at night, come to me first."

How is this different from being in the same room?

Babbitt pushed open the door. "This lock is a double lock. If you lock this side, I can't come over there. Don't worry."

As he spoke, he turned sideways, and Cecilia could also see a glimpse of the tip of the iceberg of the room on the other side through this door.

Babbitt gently tucked the hair behind Cecilia's ears and said, "Of course, I won't lock the door from that side. You can come over anytime you want."

Cecilia felt extremely uncomfortable.

Especially when Babbitt's hand rubbed his earlobe and then stroked his cheek, "It's late, you should go to bed early. If you need help, there are servants outside the door."

After saying this, Babbitt kissed Cecilia on the forehead and said, "Maybe we can discuss the wedding tomorrow."
