Chapter 466: You Heartless Man
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
“In the end? You not only had a child with her but also designated his child as the heir!”
“You deceived me with your honeyed words! You explicitly a.s.sured me of the main wife’s position, but after our marriage, you relegated me to a concubine!
Our child was reduced to the status of a concubine’s offspring. This can hardly be considered a respectable union!”
“You were the first to deceive me. That’s why I resorted to deceit!”
“I did it solely to secure a bright future for our children, so I don’t believe I made a mistake!”
“If there’s blame to a.s.sign, you deserve it first!”
The Lady of the Marquis’ Mansion wept and cursed.
“I could have married into a respectable family. It’s all your fault. Your deceit led to this situation for me and my children!”
“I detest you, you heartless man!”
“I’ve served you diligently for decades. I’m already so advanced in years, yet you heartlessly confined me to the temple hall, robbing me of sunlight! ”
“And now, you wish to punish me once more. In that case, I might as well meet an early demise and acquiesce to your wishes!” As she spoke, she struck her head against the table.
The Old Marquis embraced her.
“Bao’er, cease this recklessness!”
The Lady of the Marquis’ Mansion seized the opportunity to strike the Old
Marquis. “Sob… do you truly believe you hold no responsibility for what befell
“If you believe you bear no responsibility, then don’t impede me from ending it all!”
As she spoke, she prepared to hit her head against the table once more.
For some reason, she found the strength to carry out her actions, leaving the Old Marquis feeling unable to restrain her any longer.
Nonetheless, she continued to struggle with all her strength. “You did nothing wrong. It’s all my fault. I’ll die, I’ll die!”
The Old Marquis could only admit in a hushed tone, “Bao’er, cease this reckless behavior. I, too, have my faults…”
In his youth, he had been deeply in love with her, a woman as resplendent as a blossom. He had indeed made such promises.
At that time, he longed to offer her the entire world.
Upon realizing that breaking off the engagement with his first wife was impossible, he even contemplated eloping with her.
However, she had declined, citing her inability to act so selfishly.
If she were to elope, she preferred not to remain with him, as she didn’t want to bring harm to him. Departing the Marquis Mansion would mean forfeiting his heir status.
Her refusal had greatly moved him, and he had pledged to cherish her.
To marry her, he had indeed vowed not to allow his wife to bear children.
At that moment, he had genuinely intended to honor that promise.
However, on their wedding night, he discovered that his first wife was also a vision of beauty. During his intimate moments with her, he discerned her gentle and compa.s.sionate nature, causing him to waver once more.
He felt that there was nothing wrong with his first wife being his primary spouse.
As a young girl, she had no say in the matter of marriage.
Even when she wed him, she remained unaware of his relations.h.i.+p with another woman.
Their parents were the ones at fault, as they had forcibly arranged their union for the sake of their own interests.
The Old Marquis believed that if he couldn’t shower her with affection, he would give her a child.
During his first wife’s pregnancy, he wed his equal wife.
Capitalizing on his first wife’s expectant state, which prevented her from tending to his needs, he spent each night with his equal wife.
Back then, he considered himself exceptionally benevolent toward his first wife but felt a growing sense of guilt toward his equal wife.
Before long, he found himself captivated by the tenderness of his equal wife.
After the primary wife gave birth to her son, she approached him one day and said, “Inform your equal wife that if she harbors any thoughts of harming my son once again, she shouldn’t be surprised if I take action against her first!”
The Old Marquis found it difficult to believe his wife’s words, scolding her for needlessly stirring up trouble and holding delusions.
His beloved Bao’er had always been forgiving, never reproaching him for failing to fulfill his promise..
