Chapter 56
Meanwhile.
Charlotte returned to the Heath family’s mansion in Khebury in a military car.
The interior of the mansion was decorated in a modern minimalist style. It looked simple but still showed the wealth and taste of the family.
The overall tone was a premium gray with all sorts of different textures.
What Charlotte could never afford in her lifetime, she now had it all.
Charlotte walked up the revolving staircase to the lounge on the second floor.
Then she saw Cecelia, drinking her tea elegantly on the premium leather sofa.
The warm yellow light.
It fell dimly on her body. She looked like a peaceful and beautiful painting from afar.
Surprisingly, her father, General Ralph, and her grandfather, General Rodney, were also present.
They wore formal green uniforms, with golden olive branches around several shining stars on both shoulders and war medals on their chests.
Obviously, they were all waiting for her to return.
The 704 Military Hospital must have been the first to report her pregnancy to them.
Normally, Ralph did not live in Khebury and seemed to have come over from the Capital tonight.
Charlotte instantly tensed up.
Once the pregnancy came to light, although she was mentally prepared, there was a hard battle to be fought.
But still, she didn’t expect that even Ralph was here.
Rodney was quite old now, and she could definitely coax him with some clever words.
Cecelia was so gentle and atmospheric, very nice to be around.
Only Ralph’s natural majesty made her feel intimidated.
Charlotte walked up with her head down in small steps, before they could speak.
With a thud, she fell to both knees.
“I’m sorry that I embarrassed the Heath family.” She even managed those chokes and sobs.
It was the best way she could think of to lower her posture and gain sympathy.
“Child, what are you doing?” Cecelia was really heartbroken for her daughter and rushed forward to help.
Ralph blocked with one arm and a serious tone, “Let her talk, what’s going on.”
Pregnancy before marriage was more than a disgrace. It had never been such a thing in the history of the Heath family.
Charlotte lowered her eyebrows and said in a low voice, “About two months ago, I saved Luther and lost my virginity as a result. I didn’t expect to get pregnant. I’m sorry, that’s all I can say. It’s all my fault, I’m sorry, Mom, Dad. You can do whatever you see fit to me. It’s not his fault, really.”
She did not want to say too much. The more she said, the more details they would know, and the more troubles there would be.
With this, she showed herself to be protective of Luther, and they were not in a position to pursue the matter any further.
Cecelia came forward, leaned down, helped her up from the floor, wrapped her up, and sat on the couch with her, “If you don’t want to talk more, we won’t force you.”
Charlotte really felt moved by the tender motherly love of Cecelia.
Growing up in an orphanage, she was never taken care of like this.Content © provided by NôvelDrama.Org.
Charlotte threw herself into Cecelia’s arms, greedily taking in her mild scent, and choked out, “Mom, I’m sorry for making you so worried.”
Cecelia’s eyes were really red as she hugged Charlotte tightly, “I have worked so hard for 20 years to find my daughter, how can I bear to let you suffer again.”
“Humph!” Rodney stomped his cane violently, his thick sword brows flew up, his white beard stood up in anger, and he commanded Ralph, “You, bring Luther to me immediately. How dare this young lad do such a thing to my granddaughter!”
That was their unique way to communicate as soldiers.
