70 The entire mansion was filled with joyous celebrations , and everyone praised me for my thoughtfulness .
Only Danica was frowning with worry .
I spoke up for her , Danica is experiencing emotional distress , which has caused her displeasure before childbirth .
It will get better once the baby is born .
After saying this , I thoughtfully invited the missionary .
I heard that the scriptures from these missionaries have a calming effect , so I brought him to cheer you up ! } When Danica heard that I had invited the father of the child in her belly , she panicked .
Combined with a small dose of labor inducing medicine I had secretly administered … She hurriedly said she didnt want it .
However , the missionary was already at the Generals residence .
Danica merely glanced at the back of the missionary , and her composure was immediately shattered .
} She soon went into labor .
Ah ! Before long , a scream of shock came from the delivery room .
Jamie Willis came out .
Her face was filled with terror .
I understood immediately that she must have seen Danicas baby with black hair and eyes .
As a long time palace maid , Jamie had spent her entire life in the palace and had never seen a foreigner .
She was bewildered by the sight of the strange baby .
Mr.
Lowe … Mrs.
Lowe … she … Jamie hesitated , unable to articulate what she had seen .
When performing , one must commit fully .
At that moment , I quickly stepped forward , feigning panic as I asked , What happened , Jamie ? Is my sister in danger ? As I spoke , I pinched my thigh to make my eyes watery and my voice quivered with a sob .
Mrs.
Lowe … Mrs.
Lowe … Jamie seemed unsure how to convey that Danica had given birth to a strange baby .
Jamie , you have served in the palace for years .
How can you still be so unstable ? Just say what happened ! } Whether it was my illusion or not , although Rolando spoke urgently , his expression remained indifferent .
At that moment , another midwife emerged , holding the baby with black hair and eyes .
After a glance exchanged with Jamie , both women knelt on the ground .
Mrs.
Lowe has given birth to a monster .
This may be an ominous sign ! Please , General , let me return to the palace to report to the Emperor .
If the General is to blame for a monster , causing harm to the people , we cannot bear it ! Please let us go ! Jamie invoked the fate of the world , forcing Rolando to let her go .
He even sent his prized steed to escort Jamie back to the palace .
Soon , my father , Danicas mother Kenya , Danica , Rolando , and I were summoned before the Emperor .
Mr.
Tanner , what do you think ? The Emperors face turned dark .
He didnt even dare to look at Rolando first , as he had personally urged the marriage .
Why not deal with the child in secret and declare that the baby was dead ? Before my father could speak , Kenya interrupted .
Mom , no ! He is my child , and I cannot let him end up like that ! Please , let the General divorce me .
Ill return to the Tanner family , and we will raise the child together ! Look at his eyes , theyre so beautiful .
Mom , can you bear to see him harmed ? The child is innocent ! Danica spoke with tears and sobs .
Mr.
Tanner , you should also show your stance .
You cannot let Kenya , a mere woman , make the decision .
The Emperor gave my father a look , signaling him to plead with Rolando .
The Emperor had seen missionaries before and knew that this child was not a monster .
Then it was a matter between the Tanner family and the Lowe family .
My father , understanding the Emperors hint , knelt at Rolandos feet .
He slammed his head on the wooden floor with a muffled thud .
Rolando , if this can be settled secretly , I am willing to offer half of the assets of the Tanner family ! Before Rolando could respond to my fathers offer of money … 9:10 AM Your Majesty , theres trouble ! Whats the rush ? Why are you so flustered ? The Emperors face grew displeased .
} Reports from outside the palace say that the people have gathered at the palace gates , demanding the execution of the monster from the Generals residence ! Now the whole city is talking about it .
They said Mrs.

Lowe has given birth to a monster ! The servant reported .
Your Majesty , I have another child yet to be born .
I do not wish to bear the stigma of having a monster .
I ask Your Majesty to consider that I have risked my life for you and decide on this matter so that my child will not be subjected to scandal ! Rolando finally spoke .
He had remained calm all along , seemingly waiting for the servants report .
The Emperor , knowing the relationships between the Tanner and Lowe families , had to decide whom to protect .
He could no longer afford to play both sides .
He pressured my father , Mr.
Tanner , this matter cannot be concealed any longer .
The peoples opinion is clear , and I can do nothing .
Why didnt you disclose your daughters pregnancy when I granted the marriage ? Did you deceive me ? Are you aware of your mistake ? % Seeing the Emperor turn against him , my father immediately pleaded , I will kill that foreigner immediately .
As for my daughter and this bastard , I will follow the clan rules and drown them ! Hearing that my father planned to drown her , Danica immediately fell to my fathers feet , crying out , Dad , please spare me ! ? But they were still standing in front of the Emperor , not in the Tanners residence .
No one would tolerate such a scene .
To save the entire family , my father had no choice but to grit his teeth and have Danica drowned .
Kenya looked at me with eyes full of hatred .
Because I had not let her switch the child , she grew vicious towards me .
Soon , she bribed the servants in the Generals residence to place a voodoo doll under my bed .
But the person placing the doll was caught by Lara .
Kenya was reported to the Emperor by Rolando and received a punishment .
She was sent to a village to work as a washerwoman and was banned from leaving the village for the rest of her life .
Those who harmed me received their comeuppance .
Soon , I gave birth to a chubby and healthy son .
Honestly , I owed my position as the Generals wife to Danica .
@ If not for her eagerness to show off , I would have been no more than a concubine based on my status .
Rolando made a wooden rocking horse for our son .
Even though he couldnt walk yet , he already had a whole room full of toys made by Rolando .
Honey , I had a dream .
In the dream , you and our son lived a hard life .
I woke up with deep regret .
I realized that as long as I am alive , I must remove any obstacles for you .
Now that the bad guys have got punished , I can finally put my heart at ease .
A dream ? Could it be that Rolando was also reborn ? So , he feigned affection for Danica , sending people to her side under the guise of caring for her , and preventing her from doing anything .
I had always wondered why royal doctors couldnt determine how many months Danica had been pregnant .
Now I realized it was because Rolando forbade it .
But none of that mattered .
At the moment , being with Rolando and our son was the happiest thing for me .
