2101: Total Disbelief

Total Disbelief

No matter what Emily said, Nuannuan would be able to counter and refute it.0

"Miss Emily, are you going to admit it yourself, or are you going to let me do it for you? If you tell me how you leaked the information and why you wanted to kill me, I'll let you be. If you abort the child in your belly and stay away from my father from now on, this matter can end here. But if..."

"In your dreams!" Before Nangong Nuannuan could finish speaking, she was interrupted by Emily.

Emily looked at Duke Eton sadly. Finally, she could not help but cry.

"Mr. Duke, is this good daughter you adopted? Even if I'm not married to you, I'm still pregnant with your child. This is the royal family's bloodline, your only child!

"This vicious woman dared to ask me to abort my baby in front of you. I have a life in my tummy, a life that continues your bloodline. Why should I abort it just like that? Mr. Duke, can't you see through her? She's greedy and wants to inherit your property, so she framed me!"

After Emily finished speaking, she saw that everyone in the room was looking at her with a strange expression. Even the three Wu siblings had a strange expression on their faces.

Duke Eton was not bothered by her words at all. He looked at her with a strange expression like the others. After a long while, he faintly said, "Emily, I think... you've misunderstood something."

Emily looked at Duke Eton with a puzzled expression, not knowing what he was going to say.

"Why do you think I said that my inheritance would be given to Sunny and Selina in the future? Do you think they're just my adopted children? Why would the royal family engrave their names in the royal family's genealogy, then?"

Emily, "..."

Why? She really wanted to know too.

"Because even though I used to be very rich, I spent too much money. The inheritance that my father left me was already very small. If it wasn't for Sunny, I would have long run out of money to spend. I can credit this mansion still standing and me becoming the richest man in Luntan to Sunny was supporting me. Sunny is also very rich and has contributed a lot of money to the royal family. The royal family didn't want to lose her, so after seeking her consent, they added her name to the genealogy. So, the rich man isn't me, but Sunny. Even if you give birth to my child, or even ten of my children, they won't get the right to inherit. Do you understand?"

Emily's face slowly turned pale after hearing Duke Eton's words.

She did not believe it!

She did not believe it at all!

How could she have been tricked like this?

She had finally met a prince, and she was about to go from Cinderella to Princess Consort.

Now, everything was different from what she imagined.

Seeing that Emily remained silent, Duke Eton said, "So I fully agree with Sunny's proposal. If you're willing to tell the truth, tell us why you leaked the information. And how did you leak it? I'll allow you to abort the child yourself, then we'll have nothing to do with each other from now on. Otherwise, you let Sunny find evidence that you harmed her, and you'll be found guilty of murdering the lady of the Duke's house, a capital crime. Even if your child gets to be born, you won't be able to see him grow up."
