C159

1 PM, 108 Bai Nan Road.

Ning Huan pushed open the villa's door, and saw that the curtains were drawn. The lighting was very dim, and Ning Huan only saw a figure sitting on the sofa.

As Ning Huan walked towards her, the villa's lights suddenly lit up. Ashley shook a glass of red wine and said carelessly, "Duchess, you really did come. It looks like you really care about this bastard in your stomach!"

The corner of Ning Huan's mouth curled up into a mocking smile. Her eyes turned ice-cold as she said, "You used your pure and kind wife to drug me. Don't you feel even the slightest bit of guilt?"

Ashley took a sip of his red wine and smiled. "As a Duchess of C, and with a bastard child in your belly, what right do you think you have to blame me?"

Ning Huan nodded. "Yes, I really don't have the right to criticize you. After all, you have no sense of shame at all. All these years, there have been too many women around for you to count.

A hint of coldness flashed past Ashley's eyes. He stared at Ning Huan and said, "Do you believe that I won't kill you right now?"

Disdain flashed in Ning Huan's eyes, "You won't kill me. The reason why you drugged me but didn't immediately poison me to death means that I'm useful to you. Don't scare me, I'm not as stupid as you think."

Ashley coldly snorted. "It looks like you've thought it through. Tell me, what use do you think you have for me?"

Ning Huan replied, "It's just a struggle for the throne. You want to use me to threaten Windsor so that he can give up the fight for the throne."

Ashley said, "You guessed right. That's what I thought."

Ning Huan said, "Why do you think Windsor would care about my life or death? After all, even you know that the child in my womb isn't his. How could he give up his easily obtainable throne for a woman who betrayed him?"

Ashley said, "Don't you lie to me. As far as I know, Windsor loves you very much. I'm sure he won't let you die."

"You think too much of me," Ning Huan replied. "I'm just his wife in name."

Ashley said, "If you want to know whether what I say is true or not, you'll know when you try it. I've already told Windsor that you're here. We'll wait right now and see if he comes."

Ning Huan gritted her teeth. "You're despicable!"

Ashley smiled. "I'm flattered. I've always cared only about the results. It doesn't matter to me whether the process is despicable or not. "Oh, right, I forgot to tell you. That childhood friend of yours from the capital has also come to the country of C recently. If I tell him that you are in my hands, will he come and save you?"

Ning Huan stared at Ashley. "Stop dreaming. Right now, I have nothing to do with him. Otherwise, he wouldn't have let me go back to C Nation."

Ashley said, "Well, according to my research, he loves you a lot, doesn't he? Even if it's for the child in your stomach, he will definitely come. After all, the child is his. "

Ning Huan's lips curved into a cold smile. "If you become the King of the C Nation, then the entire C Nation won't be far from its demise."

Ashley said slowly, "You're wrong. It's not that I want to be king, it's that my son wants to be king."

Ning Xi became suspicious, "Your son? "Where did you get your son?"

Ashley said coldly, "That's not what you should know."

"..."

In a private villa near King's Palace.

Han Mo Bei wore a thin white shirt and stood in front of the large French windows. His back was straight and his expression was cold.

The bodyguard hurriedly came in and said, "Young Master, the Madam left the Duke's Mansion an hour ago, and when she left she was alone, and has yet to come back."

Han Mo Bei opened the window and asked coldly, "Where did you go?" It was as if a gust of wind had blown into his voice.

The bodyguard replied respectfully, "108 Bonan Road. According to investigations, this is the property of Ashley."

Han Mo Bei turned around with a gloomy face. He coldly snorted and said, "You're courting death."

The bodyguard asked, "Young Master, what should we do next?"

Han Mo Bei's cold voice sounded, carrying a trace of ruthlessness. "Bind that imperial concubine of his and bring him to 108 Bai Nan Road."

"..."

Ning Huan felt the passage of time. She pretended to be calm, but her heart was in turmoil. She clearly knew that Ashley was right. Whether it was Windsor or Han Mobei, they would definitely come. However, at this moment, she preferred them to be ruthless.

In truth, Ning Huan didn't have much fear towards death, because she realized that in this world, there was nothing to miss anymore. All of her relatives were gone, and the only ones who were close to her were the children in her womb.

However, Ning Xi was thinking that if she died with her child, then it would be another kind of reunion. Perhaps, she and her child would still be able to see her parents and grandmother in heaven, so they would be very happy, wouldn't they?

She, like every other mother, hoped that this child could be safely born. However, she did not want to owe anyone else. If her life and the child's life depended on the sacrifice of Windsor and Han Mo Bei in exchange for it, she would rather not have it.

Ning Huan's hands slowly caressed her stomach. Her actions were filled with the gentleness of a mother. Her eyes gradually became sore. She took a deep breath to prevent her tears from falling.

Ning Huan sat on the sofa, her eyes fixed on the tea table in front of her. As long as she hit that sharp horn, she would definitely die.

Han Mo Bei walked in against the light. His face was calm, but he unconsciously gave off an aura that could destroy everything.

The bodyguard behind Han Mo Bei was holding a woman, and that woman was Princess Ahi.

Ashley shot to his feet and could not help but call out, "Ahi."

Han Mo Bei's gun was pointed at Ahi's head as he coldly said, "Release him."

Ashley's heart clenched for some reason, but then he sneered. "Mr. Han, I'm afraid you haven't figured out what's going on. You're just tying up an unfavoured princess, and to me, this wife is useless. Even if you kill her in front of me, I promise I won't even look at her corpse."
