Chapter 122: The Protector

KIMBERLY

I walked into the quiet living room and took up the remote to watch any available channel. I have been lying on the bed for years in the name of sickness, my leg and body felt numb so I thought of moving around.

“Ma’am, you are not to leave your room.” Andrea rushed over to me and I sighed crashing on the armchair.

“Why? Did Ashman ask you to lock me up again?” I rolled my eyes.

“No. No. Not at all.” she rattled out as she placed the tray on the table.

“This is your morning medication with hot soup to warm you up.” she said and I nodded.

“I will have it later.” I said.

“No, ma’am. You have to take them now.” she said in a more serious but courteous tone.

I focused on her.

“Why the rush?” I pursed my lips.

“Lord Ashman said we are leaving for Ordean Ville this evening. You need to take your last dose.” she informed me and my heart skipped a bit.

I almost thought he would change his mind after that day. So, he could actually kill his daughter in the act of pleasing the goddess.
