Chapter 837 Carter's Grandfather's Diary

This family painting depicts his grandfather, and standing next to her grandfather is Alice.

Carter felt phantom pain in his heart again, and he remembered Alice's silver eyes and the cold knife that his father had stabbed into his chest. However, he did not hate his father, because the cursed ritual inherited from the royal family, the "Father Killing Son Ritual", required the father to kill his most beloved child.

The fact that he was chosen that night actually proved that his father loved him and that he was his father's favorite among all his children, even though he was almost killed because of it.

What he hated was Alice, hated her gentleness, hated the illusion she gave him, hated her beauty, hated her elegance, hated her for shattering all his dreams and making his father deceive himself.

His father once said to him: "When you grow up, Alice will be your maid, and you can ask her to do whatever you want."

He has always believed this sentence and can't wait to grow up. When he was very young, he respected his grandfather, but when he grew up a little, he hated his grandfather because he felt that the old man had occupied Alice because he had never died. If he died early, perhaps Alice would have become her father's maid.

If it were his father, he would definitely give Alice to him because he loved him so much.

He was not yet an adult at that time, but he already had the desires that only men have. It seems that he was probably not young anymore when he was assassinated by his father. He felt that a ten-year-old child would not think about that kind of thing.

But these past events are no longer important. Carter's disgust for his grandfather back then seems so childish now. Especially after reading the old man's diary a long time later, he realized how unreasonable his disgust for him was back then.

All his thoughts were just his wishful thinking from the beginning. No one had ever monopolized Alice. Everyone in their family was pathetic. Every generation of heirs had similar desires but also suffered similar insults. And this insult did not come from others, but only from their own hearts.

He would never forget his grandfather's inner thoughts which were totally inconsistent with his appearance as revealed in his diary. Carter could not imagine how much a person wanted to talk, but had no one to talk to, to leave such dirty words on the pages.

That day he opened the thick diary with a brown leather cover in the midday sun. When he finished reading, the warm sunlight shone on his body like cool mint. When he withdrew his eyes from the ink, Carter felt as if his grandfather had gone crazy for him.

That day, he closed his diary and felt as if the person who wrote it was his future self.

In the diary, my grandfather wrote about his initial ecstasy when he was chosen as the royal heir, his confusion when he learned the truth about the father-killing-son ritual, and his anger when he suddenly understood why his great-grandfather had chosen him as the royal heir.

He wrote down all his emotions and his lifelong desire for Alice in detail in the diary. Through the diary, Carter saw a hypocritical real person.

When he was young, my grandfather was greedy for Alice. When Alice became his maid, the first thing he did was to try to get close to her, wanting to get rid of her identity as a maid and marry her, even though he knew that Alice had been serving their family as a maid for many years.

The results of all these efforts were recorded in his diary.

Page after page, from arrogance to self-abasement and self-loathing, my grandfather's life is on it.

On the day when the 28-year-old grandfather implicitly expressed his love to Alice, he wrote in his diary: [She might be too scared. After all, no royal heir would be willing to marry a lowly maid, so she pretended not to understand what I meant.

She must have understood. Even though she pretended to be calm on the surface, she must have been very panicked inside.

After all, I am the legitimate heir of the royal family, and she is just a maid who has served successive kings. My love is a great gift to her, so great that she can't believe it. I have to give her some time to accept it. 】

……

[That bitch actually dared to reject me! I told her that this was an order, how dare she? She is just a bitch raised by the royal family! She actually dared to reject me with the reason that the king should be reserved and self-respecting! Who does she think she is? Does she still think she is the teacher who taught me in the past? ]

……

[Alice is gone. I don't know where she went, but her hands are still there. Those transparent hands still wash the clothes in the castle. At dinner, those transparent hands still set the plates, so she must be watching somewhere? Otherwise, how can she continue to perform her duties as a maid in this way?

But why didn't she show up? Did I make her angry?
Indeed, I shouldn't say such things to her. If I really love her, I should respect her. This is the premise. How can she come back? She will definitely come back, right? 】

[Damn it! She actually sent me a letter telling me to get married! Who does she think she is? Does she think she is my mother? A mere maid actually dared to write such a letter. I will never compromise, never! ]

……

[It's been three years, and she still hasn't come back. Do you have to marry me before you come back? Why do you treat me like this? Why? ]

……

[Okay! Since you want me to get married, then I will get married. ]

……

【Alice is back, great! 】

……

[Why is she still like this? Doesn't she miss me?

Thinking about it now, it seems like you have never touched me. Even when I was a child, you taught me horse riding and archery with your transparent hands.

What are you worried about?
Why won't you touch me with your real hands?

I want to get in touch with the real you...Alice. 】

[She left again. Who can tell me why she did this to me?

Do you have to wait for me to act like a superior master before you come back?
You're willing to stay with me only if I act like a king?
Is slavery engraved in your bones? You are a born bastard! No wonder you have to serve our family for generations! 】

……

[Alice, Alice, I love you, I love you madly, give it to me, give it to me, please.]

……

[Devil! She is a devil! So that's how it is! So that's how my second brother died. So was it you who asked my father to kill my second brother?

Father! Why did you pass the throne to me? Is it because you really hate me? Is it because I am the child you hate the most that you made me your heir? What a vicious curse!

I will never allow it! I will never again be manipulated by you like my father was.

Alice, I'm going to kill you! 】
