Chapter 165
"Fiona! How could you think like that? How could your father harm you? I know you have your own ideas and dreams. As a father, I have always supported you silently!"
Sebastian looked at Fiona tenderly, his eyes full of love and helplessness.
Liz looked back every few steps and slowly walked out of Fiona's room. Before leaving, she gave her husband an encouraging look.
But Sebastian inexplicably saw the flash of pity in his wife's eyes.
Looking at his daughter's closed door, Sebastian felt a pang of pain in his heart.
He sighed helplessly, then walked to Fiona's bed with light steps and sat down slowly.
The old father reached out and gently stroked Fiona's hair, and said in a gentle voice:
"Child, why don't you want to talk to your father? No matter what you think, your father will try his best to support you.
This time is the same. Do you know what I did?"
However, since her mother went out, Fiona has made up her mind. She closed her lips and used silence to fight against everything her father did.
Her eyes were full of stubbornness, as if telling her father that she would not compromise easily.
Sebastian looked at his daughter's firm expression, his heart was full of pain and helplessness, but he still didn't want to give up.
Finally, Sebastian's eyes gradually became firm, and the dignity and integrity of the swordsmanship master were swallowed up by the nobles' words and dirty hearts.
Sebastian seemed to no longer care about Fiona's silence. As a father, he continued to explain deeply and firmly:
"That boy, his name is Jincheng Battle Axe! He is a young man from Freljord!"
Fiona's eyes flashed with a trace of doubt. She subconsciously looked over, but then returned to silence, as if thinking about something.
Sebastian's voice was filled with an indescribable emotion. He continued:
"He is indeed very good. He is about to become the Viscount of the North Sea Forest and come to the northern province where our Laurent family is located..."
His words revealed his admiration and expectation for Jincheng Battle Axe, as well as his worries and hopes for the future of the family.
Fiona listened quietly, her expression was still indifferent, but her heart was already turbulent.
Hearing this, even Fiona, who knew nothing about family affairs, could no longer remain silent. She turned her head with a puzzled look and said:
"Father, aren't you the Viscount of North Sea Forest?"
After a suffocating silence, Sebastian finally raised his head slowly.
His old father's eyes met Fiona's directly, and the sharp righteousness in his eyes seemed to be able to penetrate his daughter's heart, making her dare not look at him.
He sighed deeply and said:
"Alas! As your father, I, an old guy, have to give something for your future!
Even if it's just a little sacrifice, as long as it can exchange for your future freedom, I think it's worth it!"
There was a hint of helplessness and determination in his voice, which made Fiona's heart surge with complex emotions.
"..." Fiona bit her plump lower lip tightly, as if she was about to bite it through, and her body trembled involuntarily.
Her eyes were full of expectation, her hands were clenched tightly, her nails dug deep into her palms, and she was nervously and eagerly waiting for her father's next words.
The words just now were just a momentary temper. Fiona had already lost hope for the responsibilities of a noble.
But at this moment, a few indescribable hopes suddenly surged in her heart.
These hopes were like little fireflies, flickering a weak but firm light in her dark world.
And Sebastian's next words almost moved Fiona to tears.
"That boy is marrying into the family, do you understand? From now on, he changed his name to Jincheng Laurent! So, we are still a family!
Hehe, he is just a viscount of the North Sea Forest, and can barely reach my daughter's heels!
My dear daughter, even if he becomes your husband, he is still your father's vassal!
Your father is fully capable of commanding him, and he would never dare to disrespect you!
Father knows that you love sword practice and are eager to carry the family's glory to participate in the sword competition occasionally held in Xiongdu! Of course you can!
If you don't want to stay with Jincheng Laurent at that time, then come back, anyway, we are all a family!
As for Jincheng, father will go and tell him clearly in person.
If you don't want to have children, it doesn't matter, we can discuss it, father will go to him to talk about this matter in person.
You should know that a successful marriage is also a measure ofOne of the standards of a noble's honor!" Sebastian said word by word.
He knew that when he said these words, he would no longer be an upright swordsman.
"Father..."
Fiona was deeply moved, and crystal tears rolled in her eyes. She was sentimental and finally couldn't help crying secretly.
The North Sea Forest, it was a quiet and beautiful place. Although there were not many people living there, most of the wood in the north of Demacia was mined and transported from there.
Therefore, this territory was of great significance to the Laurent family.
It occupied almost more than one-tenth of the entire family's territory. It was the most outstanding viscount territory and also the father's territory.
However, for her dream and freedom, her father gave it away without hesitation.
Fiona's heart was full of gratitude and respect. She could no longer suppress her emotions and excitedly threw herself into the warm arms of her old father.
