Chapter 512 - "I Don"t Trust Them?"
Ainsley felt that Grandpa Yofan and Elliana were acting strange. However, she was already tempted by the food and paid no further attention to those two weird behaviours.
"I see, I see, so it"s a celebwation...but Gwandpa, I can"t stay at the mansion. Tomowwow, I have an appointment with– "
Ainsley hadn"t finished her words when all the people in the hall, from Grandpa Yofan, Elliana, the servants and even the G.o.dfather, suddenly glared at her.
!
The baby shrunk her neck. A chill instantly ran down her spine.
What– what is it? Why are you guys reacting like that? He-h.e.l.lo? What"s wrong with what I said??
Ainsley fearfully looked at Grandpa Yofan"s demon-like face and gulped.
"What"s wlong, Gwandpa? I-I heald that the G.o.dlif Alchemist Guild Master is back...and he"s at the Roane Region...s-so I want to call him and meet him to discuss the auction license– "
Grandpa Yofan instantly put down his fork to the table with a bit of force.
"Ain. You can just send one of the five buds to attend the meeting. I also don"t think the alchemist guild master will attend in person."
"B-but…"
Ainsley scratched her cheeks and bit her lips.
She actually already looked up the news the moment she woke up and saw that the alchemist guild master was staying at the Roane Region for a while…
When she saw the news, she immediately called Geraldine, and the two agreed to meet tomorrow morning to discuss the auction license matter.
How could Geraldine only send his representative? He"s going to attend in person!
Also, she still hadn"t finished the matter with the Golden Scale...she hadn"t found a clue about that group.
Ah, and the head of the Roane Temple discovered that her family kidnapped the priests.
They"re now demanding an explanation and would surely visit the mansion anytime.
She had many agendas...how could she not leave the mansion?
"G-gwandpa, it"s not polite to send a repwesentative to meet the alchemist guild mastel when he"s attending in pelson…"
However, before Grandpa Yofan could even refute, the G.o.dfather already spoke in Ainsley"s mind.
[Then, this lord will go. Contact the shaman granny. She can be a translator for that old man.]
After all, only Rie could see the G.o.dfather. Geraldine couldn"t.
But the G.o.dfather"s statement almost made Ainsley choke on the soup she just sipped.
[W-what?? G-gwodfathel, y-ywou want to replace me to meet Gwandpa Gewaldine??]
Anti-social like the G.o.dfather?! He"s not even adept at negotiation and friendly discussion! What if he just blew his temper and ruined the conversation?
Ainsley"s lips twitched like mad.
[Y-you don"t have to, Gwodfathel...this is my job– ]
[Lil La.s.s. You can"t leave the mansion for a week.] The G.o.dfather cut off Ainsley"s words without mercy. [This lord will go on your behalf.]
?!
Ainsley almost dropped her spoon.
What? I can"t leave the mansion? W-why??
The baby instantly looked at Grandpa Yofan and Elliana with teary eyes. "T-the Gwodfathel told mwe I couldn"t leave the mansion for a week...ish that twue??"
Grandpa Yofan and Elliana decisively nodded. "That"s true."
"Why??" Ainsley reflexively raised her voice. All the exhaustion had triggered her temperament, and now, the baby was easily irritated.
She subconsciously stood up on the chair and slammed the table.
"I need to go! I absolutely have to leave the mansion. What are you guys planning– "
"Ain." Grandpa Yofan took Ainsley"s hand and squeezed it. The old man slowly looked into Ainsley"s eyes with a bitter smile on his face.
"Since when you"re so temperament like this? You used to be obedient, cute, and caring…" the old man paused and sighed.
"You are exhausted, Ain. That"s why you can"t leave the mansion. You have to rest, okay?"
When Grandpa Yofan used such gentle words, realisation hit the baby hard. Ainsley"s face paled and she instantly jumped to the floor, ran to Grandpa Yofan"s chair and threw herself to his lap.
"G-gwandpa...A-Ain is sowwyy...I...I didn"t mean to get mad…" Ainsley hugged Grandpa Yofan tightly while secretly furrowing her eyebrows.
Her head was aching again...and her body felt sore all over.
Is this why she was easily irritated until she was impolite to Grandpa Yofan?
Shock and confusion washed Ainsley"s heart, drowning the baby in endless worry.
"I-I...I am tired, Gwandpa, b-but...but I still need to go– "
"Ain. Can"t you learn to rely on us more?" Grandpa Yofan patted Ainsley"s head before pinching her cheeks.
"You always try to solve things alone...you have already promised the G.o.dfather spirit not to do that, right? But you still did…"
The G.o.dfather didn"t want Ainsley to be a solo fighter and also didn"t want her to be a family head that didn"t rely on her subordinates, never trusting anyone.
"If you act like this...you will hurt us, you know?" Grandpa Yofan looked down at Ainsley and caressed her hair gently.
"If you insist on doing everything alone when you"re already exhausted, it looks as if you don"t trust us at all."
!
Ainsley"s face was instantly drained of colour. The baby hurriedly shook her head. "Nwo! Nwo– it"s nwot like that...I...I twust ywou guys…"
"Then, can"t you rely on us?" Grandpa Yofan coaxed Ainsley once more while secretly peeking at Elliana.
"Look, all of us want you to rely on us. We are here to support and help you...if you do all things alone, we are no use, right?"
"...right…" Ainsley lowered her head and bit her lips.
She suddenly realised that...she had been doing things alone, not letting others do things on her behalf.
Is it because...I don"t trust them?
I...I don"t even trust the G.o.dfather…?
Such a realisation hit Ainsley hard. The baby hurriedly looked at the G.o.dfather.
G-G.o.dfather, I…
