Betrayed by the Father Reborn in His Rival's Arms novel Chapter 150

After all, Madeline had nearly lost the use of her lower body.

Lucius exhaled sharply, his attitude toward Liliana incredibly frosty. "Liliana, I told you my only wife will ever be Madeline. You agreed to go study in London. What are you doing here?

Everyone saw you follow Madeline in. If you had something to say, why couldn't you say it in public instead of cornering her in here? My wife doesn't attack people unprovoked. Didn't you bring this upon yourself?"

Every word Lucius spoke drove a dagger through Liliana's heart.

He would never have said such things to her in the past.

Liliana had thought that bringing up his failure to pay her medical bills would trigger his guilt. Before, whenever she needed money, he handed it over without a second thought.

But this time, not only had he broken his promise to fund her treatment, he was publicly humiliating her and claiming she deserved it.

Liliana had never been subjected to such disdain. She had expected him to compensate her for all her losses and grovel to her just like old times.

This stark reality shift caused her entire world to collapse.

She screamed his name, "Lucius!"

Lucius's gaze turned icy, shooting her a look full of warning.

Then, he turned to Madeline, his voice sickeningly gentle. "Maddy, I had no idea she would show up today. I thought she was recovering abroad. I'll have her sent away immediately after this."

Lucius knew perfectly well that all of Photon Tech's shareholders and key executives were present. A scandal about him keeping a mistress would negatively impact market sentiment and likely crash the stock price post-IPO.

For the sake of his financial interests, he had to take this stance.

But Madeline didn't even look at him. She turned on her heel and walked away, tossing over her shoulder, "I don't care. You can take her to the hospital."

Liliana loathed Madeline's haughty, untouchable attitude.

In that split second, fueled by blind rage, Liliana ignored Lucius's warning and dropped a bombshell that shocked the entire venue.

"Lucius, the beating doesn't matter! But I'm not alone! I'm pregnant. I'm carrying your child!"
