Goodbye You Never Loved Me novel (Martha and Stefan) novel Chapter 479

Chapter 479 Why did you kill my mother?

He was the eldest son of the Lucas family and had been in the officialdom for many years, so he naturally understood what Cecilia meant.

Although Gage was unwilling deep down, those two children were still his flesh and blood. He couldn't bear to have them executed along with him.

He lowered his eyes, pursed his lips tightly into a line, and didn't speak.

Martha, who was standing not far away, immediately understood what Cecilia wanted to do after hearing what she said.

There was only one reason for Cecilia to do this - to save her children from trouble.

Sure enough, the next second, Cecilia's decisive voice resounded in the hall-

"Lady Martha, may I ask what crime King Ducasse just said Gage committed?"

Before Martha could answer, King Ducasse's voice came, "Assassinating the future princess is an unforgivable crime and deserves the death penalty."

As soon as King Ducasse finished speaking, Cecilia spit out reasonable words from her red lips-

"His Lordship is absolutely right; what Gage did by assassinating the future queen cannot be forgiven. However, now that I have cut ties with him, my two children will return to my maiden family."

"Since it was a mistake made by outsiders, it shouldn't involve people from my Rowland family, right?"

The Lucas siblings who were controlled heard this, and could tell that their mother was protecting them and wanted to save them.

Now they could only push all blame onto their father if they wanted any chance of escaping punishment themselves.

After realizing this point, Daisy reacted first by turning against her father, "Your majesty, everything is my father's fault! It has nothing to do with me! Please be lenient towards me!"

Andrew standing next followed suit, echoing Daisy's words- "That's right! It's all my father's fault! He planned on assassinating Martha without us knowing anything about it or even about the black-clothed man!"

"Your majesty, please see how we are unaware of everything going on here? Please spare us just once?" Andrew finished speaking, which caused Gage's face to darken further with anger as he glared at his children before exploding in rage. "You ungrateful children! If it weren't for you, would I have done those things? And now that something has happened, you all push the blame onto me."

"How did I raise two useless things like you?"

"I shouldn't have protected you when you went after Martha. You two are ungrateful wolves in sheep's clothing!"

The more he scolded them, the angrier he became. He even wanted to rush over and teach these unfilial children a lesson, but unfortunately he was held back by King Ducasse's guards and couldn't move at all.
