Chapter 731: Chapter 710: Worthy of Being My Beloved Niece
"Stay?"
Michael Gordon seemed to have heard a big joke, "Do you dare to swear to God that you have no other intentions towards Ivy? Are you really thinking of family affection or just coveting her ability to unlock that centuries-old legendary treasure? You know it in your hearts!"
Hearing this, Ivy looked steadily at Michael’s face, suddenly freezing: "Michael, you know too?"
The legend might be false, but if Michael knew and still didn’t tell her, it was mostly true.
Michael did not say anything but lowered his head and nodded. Then his sharp gaze fell on the two cousins beside the old king. Even though Michael didn’t say anything, the threatening atmosphere was intense.
"Mr. Gordon is joking. We brought our cousin back because of family affection. The treasure is just a legend, and our aunt has been dead for so many years. It’s not even a legend anymore. How can we expect Ivy to risk her pregnant belly? Andras City is, after all, the country of her mother. Now she is so late in her pregnancy, and giving birth could happen at any time. We cannot let her take such a risk on a long journey!"
Spencer Lowe wanted to say something but was pre-empted by Sammy Lowe. At this moment, the difference between a soldier and a strategist was fully revealed. Spencer didn’t speak but merely looked coldly at Sammy, finally letting his gaze fall on Michael Gordon: "Mr. Gordon is right; a woman should follow her husband when she gets married. Whether she rests her belly here or returns to Andras City is up to Mr. Gordon."
Even Michael was surprised by Spencer’s sudden change of heart. It was he who had forcibly kidnapped Ivy, and now it was he who was intentionally releasing her. Why such a big change?
"Of course, it’s going back to Andras City for the birth. Before I came out, our daughter gave me a mission. If her mother doesn’t go home, I don’t need to go home for the rest of my life!"
"Grandpa, since that’s the case, let’s let Ivy go. I brought her back just so you could see her. Since you’ve met her, we should respect her and her husband’s wishes!"
Calling them ’sister and brother-in-law’ directly acknowledged Michael. Sammy watched as Michael’s gloomy face slowly softened.
"No, Ivy can’t go back, at least not before I die!"
As soon as Spencer’s words fell, the old king’s face sank. He slammed his crutch on the ground, the loud bam echoing in the spacious and luxurious room: "Get, send the little princess back to my Ruby Ross Palace to nurture her fetus!"
As soon as the old king’s words fell, neatly dressed black-clad men rushed in with uniform steps. They all went towards Ivy, but their gazes involuntarily shivered when they met Michael’s cold eyes. The leading man was frightened by his gaze, turned to look at the old king, saw that he had no intention of retracting the order, and then turned back to speak to Michael.
"Little Princess, we will take you to Ruby Ross Palace for you to nurture your fetus. The environment there is better than here and more suitable for nurturing a fetus!"
He was speaking to Ivy, but from start to finish, the person he was looking at was Michael. The man’s gaze was so cold and powerful that it deterred the leader and his men. They didn’t dare move.
She was in his arms, he couldn’t forcibly take her, but he couldn’t let her go either!
"Mr. Gordon... please..."
"Please what?"
The leading man’s words were interrupted by Michael’s cold voice, "Please let her go with you?"
Ha, wishful thinking!
"Sorry, Mr. Gordon. We’re just following orders!"
It seemed unrealistic for them to expect him to hand Ivy over willingly. As Orchid Kingdom soldiers, their duty was to obey orders, even if it was difficult.
"Obey orders? I’d like to see who dares to touch her! Don’t think I, Michael Gordon, am a pushover. As long as Ivy wants to leave with me, none of you can keep her!"
Unprepared, would he dare to break into Orchid Palace?
What a joke!
His icy eyes, and the murderous aura from him, a non-soldier surpassing a soldier. If he were to fight, he would definitely not be an opponent of a group of Orchid Kingdom soldiers. But, being cradled in his arms was the pregnant little princess!
They didn’t dare move, lest they hurt her. If they did, their lives wouldn’t be enough to make up for it!
"Little Princess, we have no ill intentions. We just want you to stay here and nurture your fetus. Please say something; don’t force us to take action!"
The respectful leading man bowed to Ivy, clearly hoping she would say something to spare them the trouble of resorting to force.
Ivy found it ridiculous. If these people were her parents who raised her, their actions might make sense. But these unknown grandfather and cousins, wanting to keep her here to use, that’s an international joke! Does she look like a naive, inexperienced person?
"Say something?" Ivy glanced at the leader, who hesitated to make a move, and laughed lightly. "What should I say? Abandon the husband who risked his life to take me back home, and not acknowledge my own daughter who is left at home, just to accompany some unknown so-called relatives and talk about laughable family affection? Old King, two Lowe brothers, let me tell you, I, Ivy Aretha, will follow whoever treats me best, not those who try to confine and exploit me. Move it or let us leave; all of you, get out!"
It was a joke to let her stay and nourish her fetus when she couldn’t even guarantee the safety of the lives in her belly!
People calling her cousin, but their minds were full of dirty tricks; the old king was no exception! What he wanted was just Michael. If he truly missed her, why would he only keep her while separating her from her husband when she needed him the most!
So, she saw through their true intentions!
Everyone gets out?
The cold sweat on the forehead of the leading soldier, this princess was really bold, openly telling two presidential candidates and a highly revered old king to get out!
Unexpectedly, after the soldiers had suspended in cold sweat for a while, the sound of the highly revered man’s laughter resounded through the room...
"Look at her, just as fiery as Léo was back then, speaking so directly. She’s truly my family!" After that, the old man laughed heartily again.
