Chapter 690: Mother and Daughter Argument

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Sophie had never expected her mother to influence her marriage. After all, she had given birth to a child.

However, the photos in her hand proved otherwise.

“I know you’re married, but that doesn’t stop you from finding a new one,” Annie said matter-of-factly.

Sophie felt that there must be something wrong with her mother’s brain. It was not like she was just engaged like Jiang An was. She had already gotten a marriage certificate with Gao Tian and the child was already so old.

No matter how stupid those n.o.bles were, they could not be willing to be lovers, right?

Annie saw through her concerns and explained, “Your marriage certificate was obtained overseas. As long as we destroy your marriage records, it will be completely legal. When the time comes, you can just choose a n.o.ble to marry and stay in France.”

Annie felt that she had calculated well. After all, Sophie was her only child. When she ascended the throne, she would be the crown prince.

In that case, she could not stay overseas. She had to stay by her side. She did not want to pa.s.s the throne to others. If that happened, she would have worked for nothing.

“I have no intention of getting a divorce. Give it up,” Sophie refused flatly.

Annie said earnestly, “If you become the crown prince, you have to marry into a n.o.ble family. You have to know that your father is the son of a n.o.ble family.”

“If I really become the crown prince, that’s my business. Is marriage the only way to maintain this position?” Sophie could not accept it. “In that case, there’s no need for the royal family to exist.”

Annie was furious. “I didn’t agree to you marrying that person back then. He’s just a foreign celebrity. He’s not worthy of you at all.”

Sophie had had enough of this. There was no such thing as hierarchy between her and Gao Tian.

“Mom, my dad is good enough for you, but don’t you fight every day until you want a divorce?” She looked at Annie. “I’ll never give up my marriage.”

Annie did not expect her to object so strongly. She softened her tone and said, “It’s fine if you can’t bear to part with Gao Tian. Even if you don’t break off your marriage, he can still move here. As the crown prince, it’s not a big deal to have a lover.”

Sophie didn’t think her mother understood a word she said. All she wanted was for the family of three to live happily ever after. She would never give herself away as a bargaining chip for the crown prince’s status.

Annie continued, “I know you can’t bear to part with the child. As your child, Gao Jing will be a prince. You don’t have to worry.”

Sophie stood up and stared at Annie, then gave her a mocking smile. “Do you think you can use everything to scheme? If you give me these benefits, I’ll agree. Then you’d better remember that I’ll never become like you, and I won’t be the crown prince.”

With that, Sophie left. Annie was so angry that she was trembling. She had arranged this for everyone’s good, but her daughter’s reaction was as if she had done something heinous.

Their victory was clearly in front of them, but their daughter said that she did not even want the position of the crown prince. Was love more important than power?

Unbeknownst to Annie, when Sophie said she did not want the position of crown prince, she meant that she wanted to be queen from the beginning.

This matter was told to Jiang An immediately. She did not expect Annie to go so far.

Not only was Sophie married and had children, but she was also willing to sacrifice anything for power and make Gao Tian a third party.

“The crown prince has already been secretly transported to the capital. As long as he can find a suitable opportunity, he can expose this subst.i.tute in person,” Jiang An said. “No matter why they wanted a subst.i.tute to pretend to be the old king back then, they all had ulterior motives the moment and will be exposed.”

By then, Sophie would be able to pretend that she knew nothing and become the most innocent among them.

Sophie sighed. “I’ve let down Grandfather. It’s been so long, but I still haven’t been able to bury him officially as a king.”

Jiang An shook his head. “To your grandfather, the most important thing is not his funeral, but that you can govern this country well and not let it fall into danger.”

“I can serve the people for a limited time, but in the end, I have to return the rights to the people.” Sophie’s gaze was firm. “Even if I become queen, I firmly believe that the royal family should not exist.”

Zou Bai agreed. “Country F’s current situation is to place all their hopes on the king. If the king is a good person, they will live in peace for a long time. If the king is not good, they will definitely be in deep trouble. However, no one can tell what kind of person the next king is. Indeed, they can’t do this anymore.”
