Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Irene had been waiting outside the tent for a long time. The scorching sun had almost dried up the moisture on her body. Gradually, she began to feel her vision blurring. She felt light-headed as well. In a short while, she collapsed to the ground.
The guard rushed up to check. “Princess, the weather is too hot. You should go back and rest.”
Irene gritted her teeth and used her last bit of consciousness to grab the guard’s hand. “Help, help me tell Father that I want to talk to him about Ronald. If he really still cares about me as his daughter, then please ask him to stop avoiding me…”
The guard helped Irene up from the ground. “Your body is more important. Let me help you back to the tent to rest.”
Irene insisted, “I, I’m fine. My head is just a little dizzy. I just need to rest for a while. I want to wait for Father to come out.”
However, she had only taken one step when she felt her legs go weak and her head go dizzy. Her vision went black and she completely lost consciousness.
When she woke up again, she had already been sent back to the tent.
There was a maid by her side holding a huge cattail leaf fan to dissipate the heat for her. In the cool breeze, the intense headache was slightly better.
However, she still felt a little nauseous and could not get rid of it.
However, she didn’t have the time to think about her own body. Instead, she asked the maid straight away, “Has Father’s meeting ended? Just now I asked someone to tell him that I have to talk to him. I…”
The maid quickly put down the cattail leaf fan in her hand and came forward to pat Irene’s back in order to help her breathe. At the same time, she said, “Princess, the king came just now, but he was invited out by the doctor to talk. Don’t be anxious.”
Irene grabbed the maid’s hand nervously. “What’s wrong? Is there something wrong with my body?”
The maid shook her head. “I’m not sure either. It shouldn’t be a big deal, but the doctor said congratulations to His Majesty.”
Congratulations? Irene was stunned for a moment, not understanding what she meant..
At this moment, Caesar and the doctor opened the tent’s flap and walked in from outside.
The doctor was full of smiles, but Caesar was gloomy.
The doctor smiled at Irene and said, “Your Highness Irene, you are pregnant.”
Caesar turned around and dismissed the doctor. “That’s enough. Go and prepare the medicine.” Then, he gave the maid a look. “Go and cooperate with him.”
After the two of them left, the worry on Caesar’s old face completely surfaced. He sighed deeply and said, “What do you want to do now?”
Irene was shocked when she heard the doctor’s announcement! At this time, she was actually pregnant with Ronald’s child. She really didn’t know whether it was a worry or a joy.
However, her brain worked very quickly. She knew that this was a good opportunity to save Ronald, so she immediately knelt in front of Caesar with a plop. “Father, from the moment I returned to your side, I’ve never begged you for anything, but now I sincerely beg you to release Ronald!”
Caesar only gave Irene a deep look before turning his head to the side. “You know, I can’t make the decision on this matter.”
Irene’s kneeling position had already weakened her already weak body, but she still endured it. Her lips were pale and trembling as she begged, “Father, I know your goal is to make Ronald submit to you, but he is a loyal and stubborn man. You can’t torture him in this way. Now that I have his child, I believe I have a way to persuade him.”
Caesar was silent for a moment, as if thinking, “Get up first. I will think about Ronald.”
Irene stubbornly refused to stand up. “Father, I don’t want the child in my womb to be born a prisoner’s child. Please release Ronald.”
Irene continued, “Father, I used to live with my mother. It was a pity that I didn’t have my father by my side. Now I can be by my father’s side, but I can’t be filial to my mother. I don’t want my child to continue my regret. Father, you’re a parent as well. Can you understand your daughter’s heart?”
