Consort Melinda quickly turned around to see her own trusted maid Carol coming over, even reaching out to overturn her medicine. "Carol, what are you doing?" Carol grabbed Consort Melinda, "Consort Melinda, you absolutely cannot drink this bowl of medicine. You have twins in your belly, immensely precious. As long as you give birth to these twins safely, your status will surely surpass Consort Willow’s!" Consort Melinda was shocked. She suspiciously looked at Carol, "Carol, how do you know this? I haven’t told you." "Consort Melinda, earlier I heard Consort Willow talking with her maid outside. That Consort Willow said you’re just a pawn in her hand. She has been indulging you until now because your belly is of the greatest value. Once your belly is gone, even the last value is lost, and Consort Willow will order people to eliminate you because only a dead person’s mouth is tight enough!" Consort Melinda was utterly shaken, shocked, and horrified. "Carol, you didn’t hear wrong, did you? Did Consort Willow really say that?" Carol nodded forcefully, "Consort Melinda, it’s absolutely true. I heard it with my own ears. Imagine how much the sovereign values the twins in your belly now. If the twins are safely born, they will surely threaten Consort Willow and Princess Melody’s status. How could Consort Willow tolerate you?" Consort Melinda’s legs went weak, and she collapsed onto a chair. Consort Willow is really ruthless. Now the entire harem is controlled by Consort Willow. She is a weak woman without any background or backing. If it weren’t for Consort Willow’s support, she wouldn’t have received Titus Ashworth’s favor. Now Consort Willow wants to kill her; she suddenly panicked. "Carol, what should I do now?" "Consort Melinda, don’t panic. Think about it; you are pregnant with twins now. That’s your greatest reliance!" Consort Melinda lowered her head to look at her big belly and gradually calmed down. Yes, what was she panicking about? What was she afraid of? Now she is extremely valuable. As long as this big belly is safe, Consort Willow won’t dare to harm her. "Carol, you’re right. I can’t abort the twins in my belly, but what should I do about Consort Willow? Unless absolutely necessary, I don’t want to turn against Consort Willow yet." Carol quickly suggested, "Consort Melinda, why don’t we play along? Secretly not drink this bowl of medicine, but feign a miscarriage and cooperate with Consort Willow for now." Consort Melinda thought this idea was brilliant; she would first cooperate with Consort Willow to eliminate the annoying Serena Sterling. By then, Consort Willow’s goals would be achieved, and with the sovereign’s protection over the twins in her belly, it would be perfect. At this time, Carol took out a bottle of red potion, "Consort Melinda, later you can use this to pretend you had a miscarriage with profuse bleeding." Consort Melinda quickly took the red potion and realized her maid Carol was quite smart. Indeed, walking alone in the palace requires cultivating one’s confidants. "Carol, this time you’ve done well. As long as you are loyal to me, when I rise because of the children, you won’t lack the glory of being a top maid!" Updates are released by N0veI.Fiɾe.net Carol was overjoyed, "Then I thank you in advance, Mistress!" Consort Melinda went downstairs and reappeared at the engagement party. At this time, Consort Willow came to her side and quietly asked, "Did you drink that bowl of medicine?" Consort Melinda nodded, "Consort Willow sister, I have already drunk it." Consort Willow was satisfied and nodded; according to the medicine’s properties, it should take effect soon. Consort Willow glanced at Consort Melinda, who knowingly approached Serena Sterling. "Princess of Alani, you are getting engaged to the King of Nine Peaks today. Come, let’s toast." Serena Sterling raised her bright, almond-shaped eyes to look at Consort Melinda, then casually picked up a glass of red wine. She curled her red lips, "Then I thank Consort Melinda first." Consort Melinda also had a glass of red wine in her hand. She clinked glasses with Serena Sterling, watching Serena Sterling gracefully take a sip, unaware of anything. Consort Melinda’s lips curled triumphantly. Serena Sterling, you’re so foolish! Consort Melinda glanced at Consort Willow in front, the meaning was Consort Willow sister, everything is settled, rest assured I got it done. Consort Willow saw everything progressing according to her plan and smiled too. At this moment, with a "crash," Consort Melinda’s glass of red wine fell directly to the floor. She covered her high, protruding belly with her hands and screamed, "Ah! My belly hurts, my belly hurts so much!" The sudden change instantly attracted everyone’s attention in the hall. Titus Ashworth hurried over, "Consort Melinda! Consort Melinda, what’s wrong?" Consort Melinda weakly collapsed into Titus Ashworth’s arms, "Sovereign, save me, save the children... I feel my belly hurts so much..." At this moment, Consort Willow made a timely appearance and pointed, "Sovereign, look, blood, so much blood, Consort Melinda sister is bleeding!" Everyone’s gaze instantly fell on Consort Melinda’s dress, now stained with bright red blood, flowing down. Consort Melinda is really bleeding! Consort Melinda was just diagnosed as pregnant with twins; this was the State of Westria’s auspicious sign, and now this auspicious sign is shattered. Everyone was stunned. Titus Ashworth turned pale at the sight of all the blood. He quickly shouted, "Someone, quickly get the Imperial Physician here, I need to see the Imperial Physician now, immediately, at once!" The Imperial Physician appeared as quickly as possible, checked Consort Melinda’s body, and said, "Sovereign, it’s not good, Consort Melinda... Consort Melinda had a miscarriage!" This Imperial Physician has always been Consort Willow’s person, so he was delivering lines. "What, miscarriage?" Titus Ashworth knew nothing, so now he was passionately performing in earnest, "Consort Melinda was perfectly fine, how could she have a miscarriage? Investigate, find out the reason quickly!" "Sovereign, I just found miscarriage medicine in Consort Melinda’s pulse, so she accidentally ingested miscarriage medicine which caused the miscarriage." "Miscarriage medicine? Where did miscarriage medicine come from?" Titus Ashworth asked. At this time, Consort Melinda tightly clutched Titus Ashworth’s sleeve, crying bitterly with tears and snot, "Sovereign, you must stand up for me, who fed me miscarriage medicine? This person has such a cruel heart; she killed the twins in my belly!" Consort Willow also spoke, "Sovereign, this matter is very suspicious. Consort Melinda sister was fine just now; how could she suddenly ingest miscarriage medicine?" The crowd in the hall was enraged, Sovereign, this matter must be thoroughly investigated. Endangering royal progeny is a serious crime! These twins were the auspicious sign for our State of Westria. Now the twins are lost, highly inauspicious. I feel there’s a major conspiracy in this.
