Divine Emperor of Death

own ’family ’.

Davis looked at Ernest ’s expression and decided that this show of power was enough for the latter to behave.
He then proceeded towards the door near him.

Ernest ’s eyes widened as he grit his teeth and shouted while gathering his courage, ”Stop! Where are you going!? ”

Davis stopped and looked at him, ”I ’m going to pay respects to my mother-in-law.
Do you have a problem? ”

Ernest went speechless.
He thought of a reason quickly, ”You can ’t! Mother is sick and is current res… ”

”Come on in Davis… ” A voice sounded out from inside the room, causing Ernest to stop his speech.

Davis had a slight grin on his face after hearing his father ’s voice.
Ernest hesitated but felt that it would be fine since his father was in there too.

Just before Davis entered, he glanced at him again and uttered, ”Maybe you should pay a visit to my mother, the Empress, and clear away any misunderstandings that you might have caused.
We are not your enemies after all. ”

Davis then entered the room and closed it, leaving a dumbfounded Ernest, muttering to himself outside, ’Was I treating them as enemies? ’

Inside the room, it was spacious and luxurious as any noble residence that could be found outside the Royal Castle.

A feeble beautiful figure sat in a resting position atop the bed.
A pale face with a small nose and a dried up velvet lips, lifted up its eyes and glanced at Davis.
It was Ernest ’s mother.

When she saw him, an unknown emotion popped up in her mind, causing her to look at Davis with a complex feeling in her heart.

Her long black hair reached till her waists while there were some strands of grey hair rooted upon her head.
She looked sickly but her complexion and her body condition were gradually healing.

Looking at her sickly figure, Davis verified that his mother-in-law is indeed sick.
He sighed in his heart and relaxed finally.

It was not because he saw her get healthy, but because he would soon leave and wouldn ’t know if these two newcomers would plot anything malicious in the future.

Comparing their cultivation levels with his own family, he knew that nothing would happen.
But after Evelynn ’s incident, a vague kind of insecure feeling has taken root upon his heart, ultimately causing him to doubt everything he wasn ’t absolutely sure of.

”Father, what ’s the meaning of this!? ” Davis questioned in a cold tone.

Logan sat beside her clenching his head with his palms.
He lifted up his eyes and looked at Davis with a helpless expression, ”You can say that she ’s my woman…
and she just woke up yesterday from her treatment. ”

The sickly figure ’s expression changed and a sweet weak smile emerged on her face as if she was quite happy to hear him acknowledge her.

”Then why do you look so helpless!? ” Davis harrumphed in dissatisfaction, but inside he was laughing like hell.
Screwing over his father is one of the things he liked to do so much.

”You know…
It ’s your mother…
She won ’t talk to me. ” Saying that he looked at the sickly figure, ”This woman, she is my responsibility.
But Claire, she is…
my love… ”

Satisfied with his answer, Davis nodded his head but then shook, ”What do you mean by this woman? Doesn ’t mother-in-law have a name? ”
