Chapter 4079
Leia was glad the White Tiger King agreed and she returned to her seat after nodding. She peeked at Darryl from time to
time, showing timidness and charm.
'That..." Darryl was speechless and he rejected the offer.
After saying one word, the White Tiger King went up to him and patted his shoulder. "Darryl, Your Excellency, it's been
decided. Leia is virtuous and attentive. The warriors and I can rest easy knowing she is taking care of you."
Darryl had no choice but to agree and nodded. Meanwhile, Oliver, who was standing outside the castle, was furious.
’How did that happen? How could Leia volunteer to stay back and take care of Darryl. No. That can't happen,' he thought.
The banquet went on for another hour and finally ended. After everyone left the castle, the White Tiger King made a swift
decision and gathered the demons to prepare for their journey while Leia brought Darryl to the cave in the northwest.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtBefore leaving for the cave, Leia returned to the stone chamber where Darryl rested to
pack his things. In fact, Darryl only had a few belongings and there was not much to pack,
so she would be done quickly. 2
At that moment, Leia was excited and anxious. She was excited that she would get to
spend time alone with Darryl before his injuries were fully recovered. However, she was
anxious whether an important man like Darryl would like her.
As she wondered, Leia rushed towards the location to meet Darryl. She did not want him
to wait for too long as his injuries had not fully recovered.
At a corner, Leia paused and looked impatient. She saw Oliver standing with a perplexed
look on his face and it seemed that he had been waiting.
After being frozen for two seconds, Leia snapped out of it and said coldly to Oliver, ’ Oliver,
what are you up to this time?"
Initially, she considered Oliver as a friend, but she was angry at Oliver's disrespect
towards Darryl in the stone castle and started to dislike him.
Oliver was emotional and glared at Leia. "Leia, why did you choose to stay back to take
care of Darryl? Didn't you say that you didn't like him?'
Leia sighed and said, "Does that have anything to do with you?"
'Oliver is out of his mind. I really don't wish to speak to him any longer,' she thought.
Feeling the cold, Oliver trembled and said affectionately, 'Leia, can't you tell? I like you!
When we were in captivity, I was already attracted to you. I want you to be mine. I..."
As he spoke, he became more and more emotional and moved closer to Leia.
Leia frowned and walked away from him while she said coldly to him," Okay, Oliver. Stop

"Why?" Oliver was stunned and he had so many questions.
"Because I like Darryl. I wasn't sure when you asked me, but now I am. I like Darryl. Not only that, but I also adore him. I
know Darryl has many soulmates and he wouldn't be keen about me. So, I'm not asking to become his wife. I'll be content
as long as I can stay by his side," Leia answered honestly.
As she spoke, she looked at Oliver. "So, stop pestering me. It won't happen, alright? Now, excuse me."
Immediately, she pushed Oliver out of her way and walked away without looking back.
Watching Leia leave, Oliver was upset and troubled. 'Leia... I love you so much but you see me as a joke. I swear to God
you'll regret this.’
Then, he turned and walked towards the Black Tortoise race's territory. Their race was like the other demons and answered
the White Tiger King's call. They were packing their things for the move and were being loud.
Oliver did not pack his belongings, and instead, he went to his confidant, Tyrone, and said, "Stop packing. Gather our
people and follow me."
