**Chapter 691 A Pregnant Mistake**

“Shut your foul mouth! Who do you think you are, talking to me like that?”

Grace’s hand flew through the air, connecting with Marilyn’s cheek in a stinging backhand. “I certainly don’t have a granddaughter-in-law who is as shameless and deceitful as you!”

“Marilyn is pregnant with your precious grandson! How could you even lay a finger on her?”

Ramona, ever the protector, stepped forward, her voice rising above the escalating tension. “Marilyn is suffering from terrible morning sickness and has been feeling utterly miserable lately.”

“She has endured so much suffering and humiliation just to give the Luke family an heir, yet you show her no compassion, no love, and instead, you attack her! This is nothing short of bullying!”

“The child that Adeline carries is my beloved granddaughter. The life growing inside Marilyn means absolutely nothing to me!”

Grace, who usually held herself with a certain elegance and decorum, felt her composure slipping. She rarely resorted to harsh language, but the repulsion she felt towards Marilyn and her cohorts was overwhelming.

Noticing the complex expressions on Holly and Greg’s faces as they glanced at Victor, Grace quickly interjected, desperate to clear the air. “Don’t be swayed by the malicious lies that this Marilyn is spewing. Victor has nothing to do with her. Even if the child in her belly belonged to a cat or a dog, it certainly isn’t Victor’s!”

Greg and Holly, however, were less concerned about the paternity of Marilyn’s child. What echoed in their minds was Grace’s assertion that the child Adeline was carrying was her precious granddaughter.

Their lovely daughter was only twenty-three, and the thought of her marrying so soon filled them with dread. How could she have been mistreated to the point of becoming pregnant?

Holly grasped Adeline’s hand tightly, her heart racing with worry. “Adeline, what on earth happened? Why would this old woman claim that you are pregnant with her grandchild? Adeline, as long as you don’t wish to marry him, no matter who he is, we will not allow it. Please tell me, has someone bullied you?”

Holly had seen Victor’s face in financial magazines; he was known as the wealthiest man in Huaguo.

She understood her daughter’s nature well: while Adeline might present a cold exterior, her heart was warm and kind.

Even if he was the son of the richest man, if he had mistreated her daughter, Holly would never compromise her principles for the sake of power!

“It’s all my scoundrel Victor’s fault!”

“Grandma, Mom, don’t be fooled by my cousin! The child in her belly is a bastard! The child in my belly is Victor’s own flesh and blood!”

Marilyn stamped her foot in frustration, desperation creeping into her voice. “If you truly allow Victor to marry this imposter, you will regret it for the rest of your lives!”

“Be quiet!”

Victor had not anticipated that even after the truth had come to light, Marilyn would still have the audacity to claim that the child in her belly was his.

He felt a cold fury rise within him, but he chose not to engage in further argument. Instead, he spoke with a chilling calmness, “Your actions are tantamount to fraud. Luke Corp’s legal team will pursue a lawsuit against you. I suggest you cease this charade and return home to await the court summons!”

A wave of relief flooded over Victor as he recalled the time Marilyn had persistently harassed him for money. Out of sheer annoyance, he had transferred five million to her.

With that transfer record in hand, coupled with the incriminating messages Marilyn had sent him, he could easily orchestrate her downfall!

“Victor, you’re going to sue me?”

Marilyn stumbled back, her face draining of color as the reality of her situation sank in.
