"How could this happen to my pitiful son"Maria cried as seeing his son's broken leg.
"Doctor ,it can be treated, Right"
Derek asked their family doctor worriedly.
"I am afraid to say but it can't be heal ,sir.If it was just a normal broken bone,it still have some chance.But the broken bone is the thigh bone,the strongest bone of the body and it's not only fracture but also torn apart into pieces.It must be really extreme accident "
Doctor said with serious expressions

"Oh my god,how could this happen to my precious son,*sob...sob*Maria cried harder by doctor's remark.
Derek 's expression is also not good.

It was a disaster that Albert was fall down from the horse and heavily injured on the way back home.It was so severe that he has to stay in one of the inn for three days and come back with the broken legs.(😉 Of course it was just the story makes up by Noah)

Doctor was confused 'Even though he was fall down from the horse that was running with speed,it was not enough to break a tight bone.I think the cause is not that light 'He try to say these words to The worried Derek but when he saw Noah's threatening eyes he got scared and stand back.(he also found some marks when he examined Albert's body, of course he is not stupid enough to make himself get kill.so he just keep quiet)

Albert just staring at his leg that can never heal and avoid eye contact with his parents.He feel like doing nothing.
"It was my fault,sir.I can't protect him"
"No Noah,I really thank you for your help,if you don't help him.I can't imagine what will happen.Blackwolf family really thank you for your help" Derek
Albert looks at the person beside his father and comforting his father . Derek kept thanking towards Noah cause he has no idea that Noah is the one who did it.Noah doesn't look feel guilty at all.

'Shameless bastard,you are the reason why my leg become like this and how dare you act like innocent in front of my parents 'Albert look at Noah with disbelief and hatred eyes.

Noah notices Albert looking at him, putting sad face and come closer to the bed.

"Its gonna be okay,Al.I will surely find the cure for you.I promise"

Noah looks so sad for his best friend's loss .'what a kind person,even though it wasn't his fault.He still deeply care.Lord Noah is really a good person'People who witnessed this scenes including Albert 's parents thought like that and fall for Noah's acting.

Of course only Albert knew what exactly happened.

Noah hugs Albert like comforting him and whispers into Albert 's ear.
"Be a good boy,"
Albert was shivered by Noah's word.

"I want to rest,father.I'm so tired.Albert said as he want to avoid Noah.
Noah get up and give a bow to Derek.
"Then,sir please excuse me.I will visit again"
"Thank you,Noah ,you are also like my son.Feel free to come anytime "Derek said.
'come again?I don't want you to be here.
You maniac!I fucking hate you.'Albert screaming in his mind.
Noah smile as he knows the meaning of Albert face.'so cute 🥰'

Noah just smile and leave the room.The butler,maids and their family doctor also leave the room.

"Maria ,you also go and rest.Your health is not very good.You two take care of her"
"Yes master Hermas"
"No I want to stay longer with my son"
Maria insist as she doesn't want to leave Albert alone.Her eyes are become so red from crying and she looked so worry about Albert.Albert looks at his pitiful mother and hold back Maria's hand that was holding his hand.
"Mother I am fine.Don't worry , please take a rest"
"No matter what happened,I will always here for you"Maria said as she was worried that Albert will depress.Albert was touch by Maria's words .He can experience the most beautiful love of a mother that he never get a chance in his previous life.He feel so lucky.
"I know mom.Thank you for everything"

Maria leave the room with hesitation.

After Maria left,he silent father started to talk.Albert already prepared to apologize to him as he know he let him down.

"What are you gonna do?"
"I deeply sorry,father.I....make you disappointed.Now I can never be a knight and bring honour to this house hold that you always wanted.I am so sorry"
Albert look down as he doesn't want to make a eyes contact with his father.He feel so guilty for making his father disappointed as he know he can't be a knight that his father alway wanted.

Derek come in front of him and his hand raised.
Albert knows he deserves more than hitting so he just quietly wait for his father's hitting.
But instead of hitting, Derek gently stroke Albert head as he was a little kid.

"This is not your fault,son.I don't care you are a knight or not.For me you are my only son and successor of this Blackwolf household.As long as you are safe and sound,I don't need anything "
After hearing this words that comes out from his father Albert can't control his tears and started to cry like a baby.

"Its okay,son.cry as much as you want"
Derek always harsh towards
Albert and says scolds him but he is a caring father who really love his only son, Albert.He just didn't show it on surface.
Albert also know that.

After crying for a while, Albert calm himself down.
"Father what should I do in future,With this leg ,I can't definitely be a knight.Can I even lead this family."Albert said with painful expression.

"This is not gonna stop you from your right to be the head of Blackwolf household.And believe in your father.There will not be any harm to you while I was alive.So don't think too much"
Even though Derek said that to make Albert relieved.Albert knows that is not easy as he says.There are a lot of Blackwolf bloodlines who want to claim the seat of Blackwolf household.His father Derek has a lot of siblings,But as Derek was the strongest among them and managed to achieve the title.He received this title with his efforts.Now Albert become like this so his uncles and cousins will started to fight for his position.Albert doesn't want that position. but his father wish for him becoming successor of the horse hold.So He doesn't want Derek to let him down.

"Father I promise to try my best"
"That's the spirit,son.I will always support you.Being the head is not about being a knight.You have to supervise and organise your land and protect your people.So even if you are not a knight,you can still fulfill the duty of a leader of Blackwolf "
"Yes father,I will not let you down"
"So don't worry about anything and just focus on attending the academy to become a successor.If you finished the academy , nobody can stop you from becoming a successor of Blackwolf household."

The word 'academy ' make Albert a little nervous as he knows the days he starts to attend academy is the day ,this fuck up story will start.Can he be really okay at Academy.Now he possesses one of the psycho,one already die and the other one already become his nightmare.there are only two psychos left.Story is started to break down.In this situation he can't also guess what will happen next.What about male lead?The only thing he knows for sure it ,he was unknowingly drag into this mess.but he will try his best not to be in that mess.

Derek worriedly looks at the boy who was in deep thoughts.

"SON!"
"Sorry father,I was lost in thought."
"Geez you are still ignoring your poor old
father,me and your mother are old already.I want to spend my precious time with my beautiful wife but you still make us wait"
Derek said in childish behaviour and try to lighten up Albert mood.
"Ha ha ha
you said you are not old yet"
Albert laughing at his father and Derek also laughed heartily.

"I think I should not let you wait any longer.I should try my best that my parents can have a nice honeymoon"
"Well you must"

This is the first time that Albert have a good and really long conversation with his father Derek.The first time two of them open up.but of course Albert can't tell everything.
They kept talking until night.

Albert feel really grateful to this two wonderful People.He decided not to make them worried.

More importantly He must protect them from Noah as he know what Noah can capable of.Actually one of the reason that Albert can't run away from Noah is because of his parents.He knows Noah will do something horrible to them if he disappeared.

Having parents is indeed a blessing.
