adult fairy tale

Colin was really caught.

With what Colin has done, the death penalty is an inevitable result.

However, everything can be used as a bargaining chip in political transactions. It is not that Alan cannot save Colin, the key is what price he is willing to pay for Colin.

What price is Colin's life worth for him to pay?

During the more than one month waiting for the return of the hunting team, Allen spent every day in torment.

He is the best member of the Sterling family of this generation. If the ideal situation continues, he will be promoted in the army, then inherit the Sterling family, and finally become the supreme leader of the Space Force; A fiancée has been appointed for him—the successor of the Gray family who has been in power in the guard army for generations. If they can be successfully combined, then the two major military branches controlled by the two families may break the deadlock and merge into one , their descendants will have the possibility to take the highest power and glory of the empire...

This was Allen's innate ambition and his only goal in life.Now, however, all this is at stake.

Because, he wanted to save Colin.

"Are you crazy? Do you know what price you have to pay to save him? Do you know what price the family has to pay? Do you know what other people will think of you?" Cousin Drizzt heard the news from nowhere He scolded Alan severely. This grumpy boy had always been very close to Alan. He sent greetings shortly after Alan was rescued. He was one of the few people in the Sterling family who really cared about Alan. Half the star field of the empire yelled at Allen, "You will be discriminated against by everyone! You will lose your family inheritance rights! You will lose your marriage contract! In the end you will lose the ideal you have been working so hard for!"

Allen silently listened to Drizzt's roar at him, propped his jaw and pondered for a while, then frowned and said, "But I can't watch him die."

"You're such a disappointment!" Drizzt said angrily, cutting off the communication with a snap.

Allen sat for a long time facing the sky where the image disappeared.

In about ten days, the hunting team will escort Colin back to Helan City.

It's time for him to make a decision.

A few days later, Allen finally made a decision.

On the rest day, he dressed up and went to meet his father outside the city.

His father visited and stayed with him for a few days when he was first rescued, and left after making sure he was all right.

His father did not live in the family castle.

Many years ago, his father voluntarily gave up the inheritance rights of the family in order to marry a female-biased wife, and even stayed away from the family in order to properly protect him.

That female is Ellen's mother.

But Allen rarely saw his mother.His father never left the family, so Alan was sent back to the castle shortly after he was born, and was trained and educated by the family's special personnel.

This is Alan's third visit to his father and mother's house.

The first time before that was when he was an adult, and the second time when his father asked him if he would like to be engaged to the Gray family.

Allen saw his mother again in the garden.

His mother is a female with a masculine appearance, with a gentle and gentle personality, almost non-aggressive, and of course, no special abilities, but his father just likes him.He was so well protected by his father that he was hardly eroded by wind and frost. Although he is over middle-aged, he is still clean and beautiful.

This kind of person is the partner that most pure A people really want to keep at home so that no one can see it, right?

However, Allen didn't like this kind of person.

He has been taught by his family to pursue power and be obsessed with power since he was a child, and he only sees the strong ones that shine like stars in his eyes.

Ellen's mother was very happy to see him coming, took his hand into the house, and sent someone to inform his father.He sat upright in the living room, smiling and listening to his mother talking softly to him, occasionally answering a sentence or two.

"Follow your heart," his mother said softly, "don't leave any regrets."

He nodded.

Then his father came down the stairs and said to him, "Come with me."

He stood up abruptly and followed his father away.

Entering the study, Alan and his father were sitting on a single sofa.His father burned a little spice from Nocomodo, and the spicy and refreshing smell wafted away, stimulating his mind to be very clear.

Allen said directly: "I want to save Colin and that child."

His father asked him, "Decided?"

He firmly replied: "Yes."

His father asked again: "No regrets?"

He replied: "No regrets."

"You really surprised me." His father said: "It is extremely difficult to change the will of the country by one person. I thought you would never make such a choice. However, after all, Sterling is flowing in that child." blood, I will help you, and so will your uncle."

Allen said respectfully: "Thank you, father."

His father smiled and said: "Next, you have to be prepared. Every member of the family will suffer losses because of your decision. You will receive many accusations and resentment. You will definitely lose the right of inheritance of the family. You have Most of your personal property will also be lost; your official career will not go smoothly, and you will even be discriminated against and hindered; and your engagement must be canceled immediately, and you must sincerely apologize to Miss Gray."

He replied, "Yes, I understand."

After saying these words, they were silent, and the two of them sat for a while without saying a word.

Suddenly, his father asked, "Does he love you?"

"...I don't know." Alan replied bitterly, "Maybe. If he hadn't been dazzled by scientific research, then he might...love me..."

Allen's father sighed.
