The Almighty Lord Caspian novel Chapter 503

Carl was vexed that Kate had exposed Willow's true parentage.

Only the older members of the Stewart family knew that Willow wasn't Kate's biological daughter. The younger generation had no idea, and neither did those outside of the family.

He was infuriated that Kate had said it right in front of everyone.

"How is it nonsense? I'm telling the truth. Caspian has no respect for me. He even threatened me! Just because of that whole situation with his adoptive mother, he nearly wanted to kill me!" Kate snapped, venting her displeasure with Caspian.

Caspian's previous threats had successfully scared her into keeping her silence, but in the heat of the moment, she was now letting it slip.

"Caspian threatened me, so I had to tell him Willow's identity. The two of them found out about it a long time ago, so there's no reason for us to keep it a secret anymore," Kate declared in a huff.

The Stewarts and the surrounding onlookers heard every word Kate said.

They were taken aback that Caspian had threatened Kate in the past, and they were shocked to find out that Willow wasn't Kate's biological daughter.

On the other hand, Willow wasn't all that stunned. Caspian had already told her about this.

That being said, she didn't expect Kate to announce it in public.

"Kate, what happened between you and Caspian's adoptive mother? Why did he want to kill you?" Marilyn asked. She, too, was shocked by Kate's revelation.

She had been threatened by Caspian before as well, and just the memory of that frightened her.

"About that …" Kate stammered. She didn't know how to explain what happened.

Caspian wanted to kill her because she had indirectly caused his adoptive mother, Lilith's, death.

Kate knew full well she was partly responsible, so she didn't feel like telling everyone about it.

"Why aren't you answering me? Hurry up and tell me!" Marilyn urged impatiently.

Unwilling to tell the truth, Kate simply said, "It's all in the past now, Mom! Let's just drop it. Caspian won't forgive me if I tell you guys!"

Thunderstruck, the clueless crowd began to criticize Caspian.

"Is Caspian mad? How could he even think about killing his mother-in-law?"

"That's an unforgivable crime!"

"Who would've thought that a seemingly talented and capable man like him is secretly so ruthless?"

Carl couldn't take it anymore. He immediately snarled. "Kate! I dare you to tell them the whole truth. Tell them why Caspian wanted to kill you! Why aren't you saying it, huh? Tell them how his adoptive mother, Lilith, was killed because you kicked her out of the house!"

After putting up with Kate's denigration all these years, he finally couldn't take it anymore.

Furthermore, Carl understood Caspian's personality. Caspian wasn't an unreasonable man. If he wanted to kill Kate, it had to be because Kate had made life difficult for Lilith and chased her out of the house. That led to her getting killed by hooligans.

Carl knew the truth about what happened between Kate and Lilith.

Even though he was rather spineless and useless most of the time, he still knew wrong from right. He wasn't going to stand back and let the crowd insult Caspian.

True enough, once the crowd heard what Carl had to say, they were dumbstruck.

They did not expect the sudden turn of events. It turned out that Kate was the one who mistreated Lilith. She was even connected to her death.
