Chapter 465: After Making a Mistake

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

The Lady of the Marquis’ Mansion lost her composure. “No! I’m not the cruel one! It’s the heir!”

“I heard him say it himself. Once he becomes the Marquis, he plans to harm all our children, including me!”

“I was deeply fearful at that time. To safeguard our children’s safety, I felt compelled to employ that method to drive him away!”

The Old Marquis admonished, “He was still a child then! Those words were uttered in a fit of anger. How can you take them seriously?”

“He didn’t say it out of anger. I couldn’t disregard it! The heir has always harbored animosity towards me and our children. He has never acknowledged our children as his younger siblings!”

“Marquis, do you recall? When he was younger, Third Brother pursued him, addressing him as his brother. In response, he turned and violently kicked Third Brother to the ground, warning him: ‘If you call me brother again, I’ll kick you to death!”‘

The Old Marquis closed his eyes, clearly tormented.

“Enough, don’t say more! Do you believe I’d accept your words now?”

He hadn’t witnessed what she claimed with his own eyes, yet he had chosen to believe her and chastised the heir.

Initially, the heir had protested the injustice, but later, he expressed bitter hatred, declaring, “They aren’t my younger siblings in the first place!”

In his rage, the Marquis had struck him even harder on the spot.

Now it appeared that she may have fabricated the story at the time. The maids and old servants had also a.s.sisted her in crafting false evidence.

Yet he had unconditionally placed his trust in her, for he had always considered her the most compa.s.sionate and understanding woman in the world.

Unbeknownst to him, he had been utterly deceived. He had let his son down!

Nonetheless, the Lady of the Marquis’ Mansion was spiraling further out of control, transitioning from tears to curses.

“I’ve become like this because of your deceit!”

“You promised back then that you would marry me as an equal wife, standing on equal ground with your main wife. Our children would be recognized as legitimate sons and daughters! But it’s all been a lie!”

“Not only does your main wife treat me as a concubine, but even the servants and maids within the residence regard me as a favored concubine!”

“Not to mention our child. If the emperor does not acknowledge it, our child will be relegated to the status of a concubine’s offspring, deprived of the right to inherit!”

“But you fail to comprehend the suffering that the children and I have endured!”

“You could have obtained the heir position by using the death exemption card and swapping it with the emperor, but you never even broached the subject. You were only concerned about locating the heir.”

“When the heir disappeared, you implored Su Bin to return and a.s.sume the role of heir. You even bestowed upon them a considerable sum of money. The collective funds that the children and I have used likely don’t amount to what you provided to them!”

The Old Marquis was growing increasingly exasperated.

“Enough! Cease your words!”

He had been willing to offer money to Su Bin and Qin Zhenzhen to demonstrate his earnestness. Simultaneously, he wanted to convey to Su Bin that only a fool would forsake the opportunity to return to the Marquis Mansion!

Furthermore, he recognized that if he didn’t provide Su Bin and the others with financial support, they might accept the Lin family’s money and entirely disown him as their grandfather.

There was another aspect to his decision. He understood Su Bin and Qin Zhenzhen’s capabilities. With their skills, they could potentially multiply the funds he had given them manifold.

As it turned out, his intuition had been correct.

Su Bin and the others were prospering, and they likely had augmented the sum he had provided them by several times.

As long as Su Bin and the others came back to the Marquis Mansion, this money would forever remain with the Marquis Mansion.

“Have you lost your mind? After committing an error, you persist in self- righteousness!”

However, she did indeed appear to have lost her sanity. She lunged at the Old Marquis, tearing at him and striking him.

“You declared back then that you and your main wife would have no children!

She’s just a decorative figure! Our child was to inherit the position of heir!”
