Chapter 51 Rushing to the Battlefield
“No, of course not. But why didn’t you mention it before?” Willow nodded. She realized
that now that she and Caspian were married, his foster mother was basically her mother
as well
now.
Currently, Caspian was rushing to the South Aridlands battlefield. It was only natural for
her to take care of her foster mother.
“My identity is special. As a b*dyguard to a general, I can’t give the enemy any leverage.
In order to protect my foster mother, I didn’t reveal her to anyone,” Caspian explained.
“That means she didn’t attend our wedding. Will she be upset?” Willow asked, feeling a bit
worried.
“Don’t worry, my foster mother is easygoing. I’ve already had Sylvia explain to her, and
she will be here later,” Caspian said.
Willow nodded. She would definitely take good care of his foster mother when he was
gone.
“While I’m away, please take care of yourself. I’m afraid I won’t be able to accompany you
for a while. I really hope you can treat my foster mother well and ensure she enjoys a
happy and fulfilling life.
“She single–handedly raised me since I was young, and it hasn’t been easy. Unfortunately,
I haven’t had the chance to adequately repay her yet, but I must now rush to the
frontlines,” Caspian explained.
“I understand. Don’t you worry. Now that we’re married, I’ll treat your foster mother as if
she were my own mother,” Willow said.
She didn’t want Caspian to have too many concerns, as it would surely affect his
performance
on the battlefield.
“I’m not worried about you, it’s just that I’m afraid my mother–in–law might give my foster
mother a hard time,” Caspian said.
“Don’t worry, I’m here. I won’t let any injustice befall your foster mother,” Willow said.
“Once my foster mother arrives, I will be ready to leave,” Caspian looked at Willow and
said.
“You’re leaving like this on our wedding night?” Willow asked.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtCaspian paused for a moment and asked, “Is there any other matter?”
“No… nothing!” Willow said, feeling a bit annoyed.
Was Caspian so oblivious? Didn’t he understand what she meant at this moment?

Caspian realized that he seemed to have missed something.
But at this moment, the time was tight, and he couldn’t really think about anything.
“I have to catch a flight to the South Aridlands at midnight. We don’t have much time left.
Let’s go out and chat with the two elders for a while, or they’ll surely think we’re up to
something,” Caspian suggested.
“Sure,” Willow nodded.
“You’re out?” Kate and Carl approached when they saw Caspian and Willow coming out.
“I’m leaving now. I’m heading to the frontlines in South Aridlands. While I’m away, I hope
you both take good care of Willow,” Caspian said.
“She is my daughter. Of course, I will take good care of her. I’m moving in with her
tomorrow,
Kate eagerly said.

“Sounds good,” Caspian replied.
Just then, Sylvia brought Caspian’s foster mother, Lilith, to the villa.
A petite, modestly dressed middle–aged woman walked into the villa.
She was Caspian’s foster mother, Lilith. It was her first time in such a luxurious villa, and
she
was stunned by it.
She didn’t know Caspian’s exact identity, only that he was in the military. She’d never
expected him to live in such a lavish villa.
“Mom, you’re here,” Caspian greeted with a smile.
“Caspian,” Lilith said, showing a relieved smile upon seeing Caspian.
“You can live here with Willow from now on. This is your daughter–in–law, Lilith. Isn’t she
beautiful?” Caspian gave a brief introduction of Willow to Lilith.
Kate and Carl were surprised to see Lilith. They always thought Caspian was an orphan,
never expecting him to have a foster mother.
However, upon seeing Lilith’s modest attire, Kate felt a bit disdainful toward her and didn’t
initiate a greeting.
“I’m truly satisfied. You’re truly beautiful. You two are a perfect match.” Lilith nodded
excitedly, grabbing Willow’s hand.
It was the first time she had seen Willow.
“Mom,” Willow awkwardly called out.
However, she didn’t resist Lilith’s contact, as she found Lilith to be very approachable.

“Mom, I didn’t invite you to the wedding. I hope don’t mind,” Willow said.
“Why would I mind? I’m overjoyed that Caspian could marry such a beautiful bride like
you. He has already explained it to me. Actually, it wasn’t necessary for him to bring me
here. I’ve been living in the countryside and have become accustomed to it,” Lilith said
with a smile.
“Let me introduce you. This is my mother, and this is my father,” Willow introduced her
own parents to Lilith.
“Hello, nice to meet you,” Lilith reached out her hand.
“Hello, hello. Welcome to our villa.” Kate forced a smile and shook hands with Lilith before
quickly pulling away.
In her eyes, Lilith was just a country bumpkin who lacked refinement.
“Mom, I have to leave for the frontlines soon. You and Willow can stay here peacefully,‘
Caspian said as he prepared to bid farewell to his foster mother, Lilith.
“Going to the frontlines? So suddenly? Let me see you off.” Although Lilith was a country
bumpkin, she understood the importance of defending the country. Her son was going to
the frontlines to protect their home and nation.
Caspian nodded and walked out of the villa with Lilith as he supported her movements.
As Caspian’s wife, Willow walked out as well.
At that moment, John, Sylvia, and some guards were waiting outside.
“Caspian, be careful on the frontlines,” Lilith said.
“Don’t worry, I will come back safely. Wait for me here,” Caspian said.
Caspian’s words filled Lilith’s heart with joy.
“Willow, when I’m not here, if anything happens, just hang in there until I return,” Caspian
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏminstructed Willow.
“Okay, please come back safely. I’ll be waiting for you,” Willow said with reluctance.
“Don’t worry, it’s just an ordinary battle. I will be back unharmed. I have to go now,”
Caspian said, then prepared to leave.
Sylvia felt apologetic. She said to Caspian, “Lord Caspian, I’m sorry for sending you to
command on our wedding night.”
“It’s alright. The soldiers on the frontlines are bravely fighting the enemy. How can I
indulge in pleasure? Let’s go to battle together!” Caspian responded.
A sense of authority and dominance suddenly emanated from him, completely
transforming

A guard opened the heavy door.
Caspian got into an off–road vehicle.
John and Sylvia followed.
The group gradually departed.
At this moment of parting, Willow realized how deeply she had fallen for Caspian. Tears
welled
up in her eyes, refusing to be held back.
Lilith, too, couldn’t help but shed tears. The time they had together as mother and son
was too
brief.
Ever since Caspian joined the military, their time together was limited. But Lilith knew the
importance of the country over family. Despite her reluctance, she was willing to let her
son go to the frontline.
It was only when the off–road vehicle carrying Caspian and his comrades gradually
disappeared from sight that Lilith said, “Willow, let’s go inside. It’s cold out here.
“Okay,” Willow nodded, wiping away the tears from the corners of her eyes. She
supported
Lilith and returned to the villa.
The day after Caspian’s departure, Kate also moved into the Riverside Duplex Villa.
When she saw Lilith, who came from the countryside and seemed unsophisticated, living
under the same roof as her, Kate felt extremely displeased.
As a result, Kate wanted to direct all her resentment toward Caspian onto Lilith, his foster
mother.
