Chapter 668
At this moment, all eyes were on the stage.
The music in the hall came to a stop, and Sheena heard the admiring voices of the noble ladies
present.
“She’s so beautiful! They both make such a handsome couple! They’re perfect together!”
“They’ve been in love for over a decade! What kind of fairy–tale romance is this? It’s so sweet!”
Perfect match? In love for over ten years?
Sheena scoffed.
Did Nathaniel fall for his own sugar–coated lie?
“Nana, don’t be shy. Come over,” Nathaniel said. His tone was gentle, and his blue eyes were filled with indulgence.
Sheena adjusted her emotions and quickly flashed a beautiful smile, gracefully walking toward Nathaniel in her high heels.
Extending her fair and slender hand, she pretended to be about to place it in Nathaniel’s palm. However, just before their contact, she frowned and covered her mouth uncomfortably.
The microphone was relatively close, and the sound of her retching was amplified immensely.
In the vast palace, everyone heard it loud and clear.
Nathaniel’s smile disappeared, and his hand froze in place.
In front of everyone, Sheena said bashfully, “Originally, I planned to share this good news with you after the wedding, but it seems the baby has other plans…”
The feeling of nausea surged again, and she turned to run off the stage, sprinting to the restroom.
Nathaniel stood motionless on the stage.
Only he knew the irony behind Sheena’s words!
His eyes reddened, and his entire body stiffened, remaining in a daze for a long time.
The nobles below were oblivious to the true situation.
Seeing Nathaniel’s stunned expression, they thought he was overwhelmed with joy.
“Your Highness, congratulations! You’re about to become a grandmother!”
“Mr. Charles and Ms. Lawson are both so good–looking. With those wonderful genes, the baby will surely be adorable!”
“Congratulations, Princess Kelly and Mr. Charles!”
Kelly glanced at Nathaniel’s expression, sensing that something was amiss.
Facing everyone’s well wishes, she could only smile and respond, “Thank you!”
Nathaniel clenched his fists, his rage nearly consuming his reason. In front of so many people, he had to suppress the urge to explode and forced himself to look at Kelly.
“Mom, I’ll go check on Nana.”
Kelly nodded.
After being granted approval, Nathaniel immediately ran off the stage, heading toward the restroom. Just as he reached the door, he saw Sheena standing outside the restroom corridor, leaning against the wall, calmly waiting for him to approach.
The color of his face was the same as the shade of the pale green dress she wore, seeming to mock him silently.
They were about to get married, yet his bride was carrying someone else’s child! How ridiculous!
Furious, Nathaniel glared at Sheena and grabbed her wrist, dragging her into his private lounge.
He shoved her inside, closed the door, and locked it.
Unable to withstand his anger–fueled force, Sheena fell to the ground.
Fortunately, the room had a thick carpet, preventing her from being hurt by the fall. This belongs to NôvelDrama.Org.
Trembling with clenched fists, Nathaniel suppressed the anger and resentment within, glaring down
at her.
“Are you really pregnant?”
