Supreme Mars novel Chapter 319

The old man was the housekeeper of this family. Knowing that, Leo's face changed and he felt a bit nervous.

Lydia's face also changed. She grabbed Leo's arms and said, "I'll go with you!"

The housekeeper smiled and said, "Miss, Master said he wanted o meet Mr. Chone alone."

Lydia raised her eyebrows and wanted to argue, but Leo shook his head at her and gave her a reassuring look. "I'll be fine."

He said as he strode into the manor with the housekeeper.

Lydia stood there with a worried look. She frowned because she needed to prepare for the worst, given how cruel the reality was.

Marie gently held Lydia's arms and consoled her, "Don't overthink it, Lydia. You know how much Dad likes you. Maybe he called Leo in to give you his blessing."

Lydia hesitated and asked tentatively, "Really?"

"Just look on the bright side. Your life's already bitter enough; you should smile at it. Don't always wear that wry face."

Lydia was amused by Marie's words. "You're making fun of me again!"

They went back to their rooms, talking and laughing; however, Elena was wearing a serious face. According to what she knew about the man, this meeting might not be that simple.

Leo followed the housekeeper and walked into a study.

"He's there."

The housekeeper excused himself after a smile.

Leo stood alone in front of the study door, hesitant to knock it.

Although he was the Commander of Wyverns of Pompeii, he still had hesitated for quite a while before knocking at the door.

Meeting the parents of their beloved ones is the life experience that everyone would have. It was critical to please the future father-in-law and mother-in-law.

This meeting wasn't going to be a friendly chat, because of what had happened to Lydia.

Either the class gap or pregnancy out of wedlock would be enough for Karl to get rid of Leo.

Leo took a deep breath and gradually calmed his inner tension. Then he knocked at the door.

"The door's open!"

Karl's iconic calm voice came from inside.

Leo pushed the door open and walked in. Karl was sitting upright on a court chair, as if he were waiting for Leo to come. As soon as Leo came in, his sharp eyes were fixed on him.

Seeing Karl's eyes, Leo took a deep breath and forced a polite smile to greet him.

Karl seemed to have ignored Leo's politeness. He raised his eyelids and checked Leo from head to toe. "This meeting is a bit later than I expected."

Leo felt confused upon hearing that.

Leo knew what Karl was implying.

When the killer almost assassinated Lydia, Karl was enraged and wanted to go to Emerdale, but Elena stopped him.

Thinking of that, Leo pursed his lips and relaxed for a bit. "Better later than never, I guess."

Karl shook his head and grinned a thin smile. "Don't get me wrong. I mean, we should've met five years ago."

Leo's eyes suddenly grew thoughtful, and he asked coldly,

"You knew Lydia lived in misery five years ago, so how could you let your family murder our baby?"

The vibe of extreme chill burst out of Leo, which Karl only ignored. He said, "Sometimes I need to think for the whole family, because I'm the patriarch."

That answer made Leo even more murderous. Now he finally understood what had happened.

When Lydia had Emilia five years ago, she got involved in quite a few car accidents that were set to miscarry her.

Karl had been aware of all of them, but he didn't stop those from happening; actually, he acquiesced.
