The Ultimate Husband (Darryl and Lily Lyndon) novel Chapter 3101

Chapter 3101

Jethro had interrogated the dignified South cloud World Empress so openly before so many people. How could she carry herself with dignity in public after such humiliation?

What made it worse was that Jethro had accused the Empress of having sexual intercourse with an unruly man.

That was intolerable!

Jethro faced the Empress' wrath calmly; he remained impassive.

The hundreds of civil and military officials in the hall held their breath in trepidation.

On one side was the Empress, while the other side was King Jannan, who was in control of the military.

Neither of those two people were individuals that one should trifle with.

For a moment, the atmosphere in the entire secret chamber seemed extremely solemn and gloomy.

"Jethro!"

Suddenly, Quincy—who sat next to Jethro—could no longer keep her emotions in check. She shouted at Jethro, "You are so bold! How dare you speak to Her Majesty like this? Are you plotting a rebellion?"

The truth had left Quincy in great dismay, but she and the Empress were as close as sisters, and they adored each other. Even if the Empress made a mistake, Quincy would offer her full support and never let the other people bully her beloved sister.

Huh!

Jethro merely gave an insouciant grunt in response to Quincy’s rebuke. He pulled a mocking and disdainful face. "Quincy, don't accuse me of such an atrocity! Your sister seduced a man and is pregnant with an illegitimate child, she is a disgrace to the royal family. I must get to the bottom of this!"

Then, Jethro took a deep breath. He was too lazy to engage further in small talks. He turned to the

Empress and asked, "There had better be a good explanation as to what had happened today!"

He spoke in an upright tone, offering no room for rebuttal.

"You—"

Quincy was upset, but she did not know how to refute Jethro. After all, it was a fact that the Empress was pregnant. 1

All the civil and military officials in the hall looked at the Empress again.

The Empress bit her lips so hard that she almost bled when she realized everyone was staring at her. "I would never betray the Emperor. I have met him in my dreams; perhaps this child is the Emperor's

innate spirit. Perhaps the child is given to me as a gift so that there is a successor in the royal bloodline." 1

The Empress's face reddened when she made that explanation; she was indescribably humble.

She would usually keep such personal matters to herself; she would not have brought it up in front of the civil and military officials. However, there was nothing else she could do when Jethro demanded an explanation, she would be doomed if she refused the chance to explain herself.

The Empress threw Jethro a side glance after the explanation. "Are you satisfied with this explanation? " She sounded calm, but a fit of uncontrollable anger rose in her heart.

The wayward Jethro had slandered the Empress so openly—it was appalling.

'Did she say that she met the Emperor in her dreams?'

Jethro and the hundreds of civil and military officials were in a state of stupor after they heard the explanation.
