Chapter 380 Are you really my son?
"What did you say?" the Prime Minister almost lost his footing when he heard Jiang Yue say that Carlisle had also accidentally shared that video to all public servers in the City. He wanted to clarify everything and make sure that he was not hearing the wrong things.
"Oh... yes. The Crown Prince indeed shared the video to every public server in Dongsu City. I mean… he did not let me finish my presentation. I could have explained it further to everyone." Jiang Yue"s nonchalant answer almost made Carlisle faint. He remembered how his mother kept on identifying herself as the Queen while screaming in pleasure.
"Father… please have someone arrest this woman. She is bullying the Royal family! She has framed mother and even shared it to everyone in the country. I"m sure the people in Dongsu City has already erupted in chaos right now." Carlisle turned his attention towards his father. "This woman is going overboard. She has been constantly causing chaos wherever she goes. Are you just going to let an outsider bully us like this?" He shouted while looking at the Ministers in front of him.
"Your Highness, the Crown Prince is right. She disrespected the Queen and Your authority. She should be punished. She is no one but a mere foreigner. She must not have the guts to act this way. Unless someone powerful is backing her!" Jiang Yue narrowed her eyes at the one who spoke up. She then looked at the name tag of the person. The words "Minister of Finance" immediately made Jiang Yue smirk.
"So this is Carlisle"s biological father," she thought as she continued watching the upcoming show.
"Father, please reconsider this collaboration. We can"t have a scheming person on our turf. She is a danger to our country." Carlisle added while looking at Gideon"s dark expression.
"I agree… your Mother is indeed a danger to our country." He shortly said before pressing a red b.u.t.ton in front of him, alerting the guards outside. The door of the room was swiftly opened as the Chief guard entered and proceeded to walk towards the King.
"Your Highness..." The guard bowed.
"Go and bring the Queen to me." The king ordered. "Dressed or not. Bring her to me!"
"Father! How can you do this to Mother?" Carlisle asked before pointing at Jiang Yue. "This woman has framed and embarra.s.sed my Mother in front of us. Instead of your Queen, You should have her arrested."
"Do you have any proof that she has framed your Mother?" Gideon asked as he turned his gaze towards Carlisle, his eyes piercing, an exact opposite of the indifferent man that he grew up with.
Just like the Queen, Carlisle and his brother also grew up being ignored by the King. Though some people a.s.sumed that the King pampered them by letting them do whatever they wanted, he clearly knew that it was not a pampering at all. It was an irrevocable indifference.
So, when his mother told him the truth about his biological father, Carlisle immediately grabbed the opportunity to bond with him. He started working in the Finance department, in the pretense of learning how the money of the country was being spent.
"No... No…" Carlisle stuttered. Proof? How could he have any proof?
"Then, did you see Miss Jiang in your mother"s room with a man?" The King asked.
"No," Carlisle answered, wondering where the conversation was heading to.
"Tsk… I have never thought that I would have a son as dumb as you." The King said, his gaze still dark. "Everyone watched as your mother was s.c.r.e.w.i.n.g with another man while you scream at my face, telling me that she is innocent. But you can"t show me any evidence proving that she is innocent."
"Then, you also said that you did not see Miss Jiang Yue in your mother"s room with a man " he added. "So why should I arrest her, and not the person who was clearly making a fool of me?"
"Tell me, young one... Are you really my son?" Gideon"s question immediately made Carlisle pale.
