SWNOVELS Chapter Making 851
Chapter 851
Lilian, Claire, Christine, and the rest of the ladies were all pressing Gilmore to marry Princess Amy.
This left Huston utterly astounded.
However, he also saw a glimmer of hope.
Since all of Gilmore’s girlfriends did not oppose the union with his daughter, the biggest hurdle seemed to have vanished.
Now, it all hinged on Gilmore’s agreement.
Seizing the moment, Huston addressed Gilmore. “Mr. Reed, since all your fiancées have agreed, could it be that you think my daughter is unworthy of you?”
Gilmore hastily waved his hands, “No, no, no, Your Majesty, it’s who am unworthy of your daughter, not the other way around.
Huston smiled, “So, Mr. Reed, you’re worried about not being a match for my daughter.
“I can assure you, not only are you a suitable match, but you are quite the perfect one.
“If you accept this marriage, the Golden Tower Empire will be yours in the future as well.”
Gilmore quickly declined, “Your Majesty, I must respectfully decline. I have no interest in the throne of the Golden Tower Empire.
“I’m accustomed to my freedom and enjoy wandering from place to place. I’m really not cut out for ruling an empire.” Huston had hoped to use the throne of the Golden Tower Empire as a bait to keep Gilmore by his side, much like he had previously attempted to appoint him as the imperial preceptor and share in the rule of the empire.
But Gilmore had turned him down just as firmly as he had the previous offer, which made Huston realize keeping Gilmore in the Golden Tower Empire was going to be exceptionally difficult.
Then, struck by a sudden idea, Huston said, “Mr. Reed, since you desire freedom and don’t wish to be tied down by the title, of a sovereign, why not eschew the throne?
“Just take my daughter with you. She also dislikes constraints and enjoys traveling around. It would be perfect for her to accompany you.”
Finding himself at a loss for a rebuttal, Gilmore had no choice but to say, “Your Majesty, the place I must travel to is a great distance from here. I might be gone for many years, perhaps never to return to the Golden Tower Empire.
“Even so, would you still wish for the princess to accompany mei
What Gilmore hadn’t anticipated was Huston’s nod of approval. Of course, as long as my daughter is happy with you.
“No matter how far away you go, I will rejoice in your happiness
“Should you miss us, you are always welcome to visit.”
Gilmore was at a loss for words.
With the conversation having reached this point, Gilmore found it impossible to refuse the emperor any longer.
He could only respond, “In that case, please summon the princess.

“We are set to leave the Bloklen Tower Empire today for a far–off place.”
Only then did Huston realize Gilmore intended to depart that very day.
He silently rejoiced at his timely arrival. Otherwise, he might have missed them entirely.
Huston quickly promised Gilmore, “Please wait a moment, Mr. Reed. I will send for someone to fetch Amy from the palace right away.”
Turning to a guard at his side, Huston gave a few instructions.
The guard immediately departed for the palace to escort the princess.
About fifteen minutes later, Princess Amy, riding a white steed and escorted by the imperial guards, arrived at the Princess’s residence.
In the attic.
Princess Amy paid her respects to Huston seated in the hall, ‘Daughter greets Father.”
Huston nodded slightly in acknowledgment.
Then Princess Amy turned to Gilmore, greeting him as well. “I greet you, Mr. Reed.”
As she paid her respects to Gilmore, a rosy blush tinted her cheeks–a telltale sign of the excitement stirring within her.
She had already learned from the guard sent to fetch her about Gilmore’s agreement with her father, Huston, to unite their paths
Her heart fluttered wildly during the journey, thumping like a startled fawn.
Never had she imagined Gilmore would take her with him.
Although their acquaintance was brief, Gilmore had quelled a rebellion and neutralized a threat from the Ice Clan to her father’s kingdom, the Golden Tower Empire.
His heroic deeds stood tall, the stuff of legends that painted him as a hero of towering stature and unparalleled valor.
Unbeknownst to her, Amy had nurtured a silent affection for Gilmore in her heart.
Knowing that Gilmore was willing to accept her feelings was sweeter to her than the richest honey.
Gilmore addressed the formally greeting princess, “Your Highness, please, there’s no need for such formalities. Take a seat.”
Princess Amy nodded gently and settled into a chair in the living room.
Gilmore looked at Amy and said, “Your Highness, His Majesty has informed me of your wish to become my wife.
“With a beauty unmatched and a grace unparalleled. I have always felt unworthy of you
“However, His Majesty has also conveyed your sincere affections towards me.
“To be the recipient of such genuine love from you is my great fortune.
“Therefore, before we leave the Golden Tower Empire, I seek to confirm, do you truly wish to join me on this journey, with no regrets?”
Hearing Gilmore’s words, Amy’s blush deepened, yet her heart swelled with sweet happiness.

She nodded earnestly ar Gilmore, “I am willing to go with you, lmore, without a single regret, for all my life
Gilmore nodded. “Then it’s settled

As Gilmore’s words fell, Lilian, Claire, and Christine, along with the other ladies, began to clap, laughing joyously. “Congratulations, Gilmore, on your engagement!
“Congratulations to us for gaining another sister.
“We welcome our new sister to join our group of Gilmore’s flancers.”
Amy’s face lit up with joy, surprised by the warm reception,
She hadn’t expected to be accepted without any resentment or rejection by Gilmore’s circle of fiancées–a pleasant surprise indeed.
Rising to her feet, Amy bowed respectfully to Lilian, Claire, and the other women, “Amy is honored to meet all her sisters.”
Lilian, Claire, and the others quickly reassured her, “There’s no need for formalities, Princess. From now on, you’re one of
Is.
Amy nodded in agreement, a gentle “Yes,” affirming her new bonds.
Huston, witnessing his daughter’s wish fulfilled to be with Gilmore, couldn’t hide his joyful grin.
“Your Majesty, we’re about to depart. Should the Golden Tower Empire face any dire crisis you cannot resolve, use this jade ship to contact me. Wherever I am, I will come to assist the empire.
Gilmore said as he approached the emperor, placing a jade slip in his hands.
Gilmore had initially intended to cut ties with the Golden Tower Empire after his departure, as he was merely a traveler passing through.
He had done all he could, fulfilling his possible contributions.
The empire’s future rise or fall was not his to guard indefinitely
However, circumstances had changed. With Amy by his side and Huston soon to be his father–in–law, the well–being of his future in–laws was now his concern.
This jade slip was his way of ensuring that they could reach out to him in times of need.
Gratitude shone in Huston’s eyes as he clutched the jade slip from Gilmore. “Gilmore, you’re too kind. I am at ease entrusting my daughter to you,” Huston said, his voice thick with emotion.
To Huston, this jade slip Gilmore left behind was a treasure more valuable than the grandest board.
Gilmore’s strength needs no introduction.
With this jade slip in hand, it’s as if he and the Golden Tower Empire gained an extra talisman for protection.
The gratitude he felt towards Gilmore was boundless.
Gilmore assured Huston, “Your Majesty, please rest assured, I will take good care of the princess and ensure she never endures any hardship.”
Huston nodded, “Alright, I will see you out.”
Amy also bid her father farewell.

Subsequently. Hustoit escorted Gilmore and his group out of the attic,
Gilmore then led his companions as they took off from the Princess’s residence, soaring away.
Huston continued to wave until they had completely vanished from the sky, his eyes lingering, reluctant to let go.
“Your Majesty, but remind the emperor
e princess and Mr. Reed have departed,” Anson couldn’t he
Huston then lowered his hand and withdrew his gaze, turning to the Anson, “Anson, of course I know they have left.
“I just wanted to look a little longer because once the princess leaves, who knows when she will return.”
After saying this, Huston bowed his head and delicately wiped the corner of his eye with his sleeve.
Anson observed this and couldn’t help but feel moved, “Huston was so loath to part with the princess, he was brought to
tears.”
