Chapter 1209: Chapter 1109: Come Back to Huaxia with Me! (Part 3)

1209 Come back to Huaxia with me!

Following his senses, Ye Qiu gradually approached Caroline, and finally, he confirmed that Caroline was inside a rather secluded corner of the palace.

Hmm?

Before Ye Qiu entered, he saw an elderly man and several young people push the door and enter.

Soon after, the sound of arguing came from the room, and a while later, all the people who had just entered walked out.

One of the young men said, “Grandfather, Caroline is embarrassing our royal family, carrying a child whose father is unknown. If this spreads, our Italian royal family would be subjected to ridicule by the world.”

Another middle-aged man nodded: “Indeed, this girl is stubborn, but we cannot let this slide. We must find that man.”

The elderly man didn’t speak but frowned deeply, indicating that Caroline’s pregnancy was indeed troubling to him.

Suddenly, the young man spoke again: “Grandfather, I have a plan. Before the child is born, we might as well marry her off. That way, even if she has a child, the reputation of our royal family will not be tarnished. I know there is a man who has always remembered Caroline fondly. I spoke with him privately; he’s willing to accept Caroline as she is, even if she carries another man’s child, he is still willing to marry her.”

“Oh?” The elderly man was intrigued by these words and nodded slowly: “Make sure this matter is handled properly, or our royal family will be humiliated.”

“Rest assured, Grandfather, as soon as you approve, I’ll take care of this. Although Caroline won’t agree, she’s different now. Even if she doesn’t think about herself, she must consider the child in her womb. I bet, when pressured by the child, she will agree.”

As the conversation became quieter and eventually inaudible, Ye Qiu’s figure slowly appeared.

Ye Qiu’s expression was sour; even Caroline’s family was plotting against her, willing to marry her off immediately for the sake of royal reputation.

It’s imaginable what kind of pain Caroline was enduring at that moment.

Thinking about the child in Caroline’s womb being his, Ye Qiu was seething with anger. How could he let this truly happen?

He didn’t want his child to be born and call someone else “Dad.”

Ye Qiu gently pushed open the door, and Caroline, sitting on the bed, spoke in a resolute voice again: “Stop forcing me to talk; I won’t say anything.”

Caroline remained unmoved, not even looking to see who came in, subconsciously assuming they wanted to force her to reveal the biological father of the child in her womb.

“It’s me.” A slightly weathered voice echoed in the room.

Caroline’s previously indifferent gaze suddenly became animated, quickly turning her head to look towards the front door.

She saw a familiar face, a face that always liked to have a touch of a smile on the corner of his mouth.

However, today, this face lacked a smile, showing only heartache.

“You… you… how did you come…” Caroline’s expression wavered, immediately covering her large belly with the blanket.

“No need to hide, I know everything now.” Ye Qiu said as he slowly approached.

Caroline wanted to speak but couldn’t say anything.

Ye Qiu opened his arms and held Caroline in an embrace, saying softly, “I’m sorry for failing you, I hope you won’t blame me for coming too late.”

Upon hearing the gentle tone of this man, Caroline could no longer maintain her previous resolve, tears streaming uncontrollably down her face.

The only man capable of making the assassin world’s queen weep is King Yan.

The usually cold and fierce queen, whenever standing before this man, ceases to be the high and mighty ruler but rather a woman immersed in love.

Ye Qiu’s arrival made Caroline smile with joy, as she never expected Ye Qiu would personally come for her.

When asked how Ye Qiu learned of her pregnancy, Ye Qiu mentioned a name, revealing everything to Caroline.

“I must thank my rival, you know,” Ye Qiu said smiling.

Caroline displayed a blissful smile, and suddenly, her expression changed, Ye Qiu asked puzzled, “What’s wrong?”

Caroline stammered: “Will you… will you blame me for not telling you about this right away?”

Seeing that this was what was bothering Caroline, Ye Qiu instantly embraced her again and said softly, “I don’t blame you.”

Though Caroline’s intention at the time was to conceive Ye Qiu’s child after a night of passion, she wasn’t sure it would actually happen.

For that reason, that night she made quite an effort, almost to the point of exhaustion, while Ye Qiu remained unmoved, even reaching the peak of pleasure several times and still maintained his composure, leaving Caroline sweaty and unable to bear it.

Indeed, Caroline’s ‘effort’ paid off, successfully conceiving Ye Qiu’s child.

Ye Qiu teased, “That night, I didn’t feel anything, and now I’m a father.”

Caroline blushed, yet felt a sense of joy in her heart, knowing that her actions were quite right in making this wanderer acknowledge her presence.

Though happiness arrived rather swiftly, it was within Ye Qiu’s range of acceptance, having known Caroline for a long time and understanding her feelings, he also liked Caroline but had never truly expressed it openly.

Now being together seemed natural, Ye Qiu dared not think of Shen Mengchen, Fang Sijie, Shangguan Mingyue, these women would only give him a headache.

After recalling the scene he had witnessed and the conversation he overheard, Ye Qiu spoke solemnly.

After listening, Caroline’s fingernails dug into her flesh, evidently not expecting that her family, all for the sake of royal face, would go so far as to treat her this way.

Ye Qiu patted Caroline’s shoulder, saying calmly: “Don’t worry, as long as I’m here, I won’t let anyone make you do what you dislike. Come back to Huaxia with me, okay?”

Caroline’s eyes filled with tears and she nodded vigorously.

She finally didn’t have to bear everything alone anymore. Even though she was once the royal family’s prestigious young lady, and the assassin world’s queen, since she became pregnant, everything changed, and she had been fighting against everyone to protect the child.

Now, hearing these words from the man she loves, she felt it was all worthwhile.

“Alright, we’ll leave now, I’ll see who dares to stop me.”

Ye Qiu suddenly stood up, emitting an unmatched aura like a sword about to unsheathe, causing awe and fear.

Supporting Caroline, Ye Qiu walked out of the room openly, then out of the palace corner, until they reached the wide stone bridge, suddenly countless figures emerged.

“Caroline, where are you going?”

A stern voice came forward, followed by the appearance of an elderly figure, the same man Ye Qiu saw before, Caroline’s grandfather, the man with the greatest power in the current Italian royal family.

King Berlik!
