Awakening divorce, the little female is scrambled by all the big guys

Chapter 155 Zeref's Departure

Upon hearing Zeref's words, Ophelia understood.

"You've gone back, will you ever come back?"

Zeref tightened his grip on Ophelia's shoulder. "You and the child are here. I will definitely come back."

Ophelia smiled faintly. "That settles it then. It's not like you're never coming back."

"Besides, don't you know the saying 'absence makes the heart grow fonder'?"

"What do you mean?"

"It means that if two people are separated for a period of time, their relationship will be even better when they meet again."

"No, once I'm gone for a while, you'll forget me, and you'll find a new partner."

Ophelia tilted her head. "Zerev, why would you think that?"

"Isn't that right? Taylor is the one you love most. If I hadn't forced you to be with me, we wouldn't have had a child."

No one could have imagined that the usually aloof young master of the capital would be so humble in front of the little female.

Ophelia raised her hand and touched Zeref's slightly cool cheek. "Why would you think that?"

Do you think I'm the kind of person who easily compromises with others? Would I force myself to be with someone I don't like?

“If I really don’t like you, even if we have children, I will end our partnership.”

Don't waste your time on the wrong person; this is what Ophelia learned from her ex-husband, Loki.

Upon hearing Ophelia's words, Zeref's silver pupils contracted. "Are you telling the truth?"

Ophelia gave him a reproachful glare. "Guess."

Zeref tightened his grip on Ophelia's waist and whispered in her ear.

"How about we skip dinner tonight?"

Zeref's eyes burned with passion, and the plump Ophelia shuddered.

"Are you so anxious?"

"May I?"

“Of course not.” Ophelia pushed Zeref away and walked straight toward the stone house.

Although his demands were not met, Zeref's feelings were no longer as complicated as when he arrived.

When a young female says she likes herself, it's not a choice she made out of desperation.

That's enough, as long as she loves herself even a little bit.

Taylor didn't know what they talked about, but it was obvious that Zeref was in a much better mood after their conversation.

After dinner, Zeref told Taylor that he needed to leave.

“While I’m gone, Ophelia is in your care. If you hurt her or upset her, I will not let you off the hook.”

Taylor smiled slightly. "I will protect the princess without you telling me. As for you, be careful on your way back."

Taylor, sitting opposite Zeref, exuded the aura of an empress.

Zeref was taken aback by Taylor's words.

He nodded and uttered two words: "Thank you."

After dinner, Taylor took the three little ones upstairs to rest, leaving Ophelia and Zeref some space.

On this night, as parting was imminent.

Zeref wished he could merge Ophelia's bones and blood together and take her with him.

Ophelia lay on the bed, her fair, full forehead covered in sweat.

She took deep breaths. "We have to travel tomorrow, so get some rest."

"I'm fine, I'm okay."

Seeing Zeref's shameless behavior, Ophelia glared at him. However, she also indulged his behavior with a doting attitude.

The next day, as soon as the sky began to lighten, Zeref got up.

Hearing the noise by the bedside, Ophelia opened her eyes a crack.

Her voice carried the languidness of someone just woken up, "Hmm~, you set off so early?"

Ophelia struggled to sit up in bed, but she was too tired from last night and didn't even have the strength to lift a finger.

Seeing that she was trying to get up, Zeref reached out and pressed down on her shoulder.

"You can continue sleeping, you don't need to get up."

"But I want to give it to you."

Zeref bent down and kissed her crimson lips. "No, I don't want to see us separated."

“Alright then.” Ophelia lay on the bed, turned over, and went back to sleep. Zeref got dressed and went out the door, and was somewhat surprised when he saw the person standing in the stone house.

“This is some beef jerky I made before. Take it with you and eat it on the road.” Taylor handed a leather bag to Zeref.

Zeref gripped the animal skin bag in his hand, a feeling he couldn't quite describe welling up inside him.

After thinking for a long time, he finally understood.

That's probably why he can never surpass Taylor.

He, who has always been aloof and superior, would not be so kind to Ophelia's partner, nor could he be so gentle and kind to his partner's other half.

"be careful on the road."

"I will."

The two did not talk much more.

As Zeref walked out of the Fu tribe's gate, he looked back at the three-story stone houses that stood alone in the village.

His lover and his children lived there.

Ophelia was very sleepy, but once the room became quiet again, she couldn't fall asleep.

She reached out and touched the lingering warmth of the bed, a wave of sadness washing over her.

Her nose stung, and a single tear slid down her cheek. She pulled the animal skin blanket over her head and sobbed softly.

Taylor, who was about to come in, stopped in his tracks when he heard Ophelia crying.

After thinking about it, he didn't go back in.

After crying herself to sleep, Ophelia finally fell into a deep sleep again.

When she woke up again, it was already noon.

The little dragon cubs surrounded her when they saw her come out. "Mother, we want to go out and play."

"Let's go out and play, let's go out and play."

The second brother, Danel, and the third brother, Wendy, were tugging at Ophelia's linen dress from the corner of her body.

Ophelia salvaged the hem of her skirt. "Where do you want to go?"

Wendy was the first to raise her hand. "I want to go to the shops on the city wall and see the sparkly things."

"I want to go play in the fields."

The two men eagerly shared their thoughts, while the eldest, Cohen, remained silent.

Ophelia bent down and patted Cohen's head. "Cohen, baby, where do you want to go?"

“Anywhere is fine.” Cohen said with a serious little face.

Wendy is a little female who loves sparkly things, the second child is playful, and only the eldest, Cohen, is mature beyond his years despite being just a child.

He never showed his emotions, just like his father.

Ophelia sometimes wondered if this was simply because pterosaur genes were so powerful.

"How about we go hunting in the forest?"

Hearing Ophelia say this, Cohen looked up in surprise.

Seeing her mother staring at her with great interest, she blushed slightly.

You know your own child best.

Although Cohen was taciturn, he had a strong admiration for the strong.

Taylor's eyes were always filled with hope and longing whenever he went hunting.

Ophelia had asked before, and Zeref said that pterosaur cubs would be trained to hunt after a full moon.

Because the three little ones are currently in different locations, they appear in human form to avoid revealing their identities.

"But what if we do that? Won't someone find out?" Cohen was tempted, but he was still a little worried.

Ophelia pinched her serious little face. "It's okay, we'll just be careful."

So Ophelia and Taylor took the three little dragon cubs deep into the forest.

As soon as they entered the forest, the three little dragon cubs, like wild horses let loose, transformed from human form into beast form.

By this time, their bodies were vastly different from when they were born.

It's already as big as a baby elephant; its balloon-like growth is something Ophelia can hardly believe.

However, knowing that the three little ones were healthy, she didn't have many worries.

Three little dragon cubs flapped their tiny wings and roamed freely through the forest.

Ophelia and Taylor were also looking around, and if they spotted any outsiders, they would warn them to take cover.
