After returning home, Cassandra took a comfortable bath and then went to bed, as if trying to make up for all the sleep she had missed.
Kenneth didnât disturb her. After sending her back, he went to the base.
His mission was completed. Although he didnât return with the people from the consulate, he managed to secure a ceasefire, giving them time to prepare and feel at ease.
As he was back in his own country, Kenneth finally felt at ease. No matter what, Clusia was the safest. His Cassandra didnât need to risk her life in the midst of gunfire and bombs.
In his superiorâs office, the leader saw him looking happy and couldnât help but tease him, âOh, did you bring your girlfriend back?â
Kenneth admitted, âYes, sheâs back.â
âIâm a bit curious. Who could make you so nervous?â
âItâs a girl Iâve been looking for for many years.â Kenneth felt there was nothing he couldnât say and said it straightforwardly.
The leader suddenly realized, somewhat curious. âIâve heard before that Commander Zelinski had someone in his heart. Looks like itâs this girl?â
âYes.â
âBring her to the military residential compound and let your aunties take a look at her.â In peacetime, these leaders were willing to act as matchmakers.
In the military residential compound, where military families lived, everyone had nothing to do and wanted to introduce girls with a good background to Kenneth, but Kenneth didnât even look at the girls.
It made those who wanted to get Kenneth a girlfriend worry. Now, he had found a girlfriend himself, so this leader wanted to see her.
He wanted to see what kind of girl could catch Kennethâs eye.
âOkay, letâs wait a while. Sheâs still in school. If sheâs willing, when winter vacation 1/4 11:45 Fri, 15 Mar G Chapter 297 comes, Iâll ask her to stay there for a while.â Kenneth didnât give a definite answer and just said that he would take her over if Cassandra was willing.
âI didnât expect you to be so henpecked,â the leader teased.
âLooks like he has to listen to his girlfriend, huh? But people like us do need to listen to our partners. Only in this way can we give them a sense of security. If we canât even provide this sense of security, what good are we as husbands?â the leader thought.
Yet, the next moment, he felt there was something wrong with what Kenneth had said.
âYou just said your girlfriend is still in school?â the leader said uncertainly. âA graduate student?â
âNo, a freshman in college,â Kennethâs guilty gaze avoided the leaderâs.
âBang!â The leader slammed the table, startling the guards outside.
âKenneth! You beast! You actually went after a justâofâage girl!â The leader couldnât contain his anger. A 27âyearâold man going after an 18 or 19âyearâold girl was unacceptable to him.
Kenneth was speechless. He felt like he had been scolded several times.
He almost doubted if he was robbing the cradle.
âBut I really love her,â Kenneth paused. âI will protect myself and try to live one day longer than her, so she wonât be lonely.â
He knew he was nine years older than Cassandra, but he would try to protect himself and try to look younger.
There were masks that Yannick bought in the villa. Kenneth decided he could wear one piece every day. Anyway, Cassandra was his.
The leaderâs anger faded but he still muttered, âYou really shouldnât have gone after such a young girl!â
Kenneth accepted it calmly because he also felt he wasnât supposed to do so, but he just didnât want to let go.
As long as Cassandra still liked him, he wouldnât let go.

The leader scolded him for a long time, finally admonishing him, âTreat that girl well. Before she reaches the age, donât do anything to harm her.â
Kenneth nodded, thinking of Cassandra, his tone becoming gentle. âYes, I know. When she reaches the age, I will come to you for approval of our marriage.â
The leader immediately smiled when he heard this. âThatâs more like it. Treat her well. I feel sorry for that girl.â
Being with such a dumb guy who doesnât understand girls at all could drive her crazy,â he thought.
What he didnât know was that in front of Cassandra, Kenneth became sexy, considerate, and gentle, and kept his distance from other women.
In Kennethâs office, as soon as he sat down, Jeremiah, Yannick, and Kayden came over.
âKen, youâre back. Cassie is back too, right?â Kayden was the first to speak, voicing out his most concerned question.
Kenneth had come back from Zosteylor, so something must have happened there. Cassandra had already met her biological parents. He didnât know if she could. accept Uncleâs family.
Anyway, if it were him, he couldnât accept it, it would be very difficult, really difficult. Their family had been living well in Zosteylor, but they made Cassandra suffer in Clusia.
After understanding the mistakes made in the past, he felt that his grandpaâs behavior was too much. He didnât blame Cassandra for not wanting to return to the Yates family. If it were him, he wouldnât want to either.
So, he could really understand Cassandra. Before, he had been blind, selfishly thinking that since she was his sister, she should come home, and let bygones be bygones. But recently, after listening to Jeremiah talk about Cassandraâs past, he realized that not everything could be let go.
He had no right to say such things.
âYes, sheâs back, sleeping at home. Sheâll probably sleep until evening.â

It was three oâclock in the afternoon. He would wake her up around six or seven to correct her sleep schedule.
Jeremiah asked, âWho will cure the Queenâs poison?â If the poison wasnât cured, he worried they might come back to bother Elaine again. Their familyâs word was not. reliable.
âCassieâs mentor Mr. Mccall is there. Heâs familiar with the poison of âBlue Skyâ and should be able to prepare the antidote quickly,â Kenneth explained.
âThatâs fine. Then, Iâll go back first.â He wanted to go back and see Elaine.
Kennethâs gaze sharpened, and he spoke coldly, âYou still have a mission. Hurry up and do your task.â
Why was he even replying? He would go back in a moment!
Jeremiah: â... âHow come I didnât know I still had a mission?â
Kenneth glanced at Yannick, and Yannick immediately understood.
âJeremiah, just now, an order was issued by the superiors, they want you to...â
Jéremiah looked speechlessly at the sky. He was sure this was deliberate on Kennethâs part. Kenneth did this intentionally!
âAlright, prepare yourselves. Zosteylor only has four days of ceasefire left. Whether peace or continued war awaits after four days, we canât say for sure. Stay alert.â Kenneth cautioned seriously, emphasizing the need to remain vigilant.
âWe understand, and weâve been preparing these days.â Yannick reported, âEthan and Lamont have gone to Zosteylor. If Mr.
Yates takes action, theyâll assist him. As long as they perform well, there will be peace in four days. Hugo and Ms. Yatesâ mentor will not have any problems.â
