Chapter 807 Pregnant

We all looked at her with a shocked look as Rose's hands came down to her stomach.

As she held her stomach, there was a faint smile that appeared on her lips while she turned to look at me.

I was the one that was the most shocked since I had never heard anything about this.

After a moment of silence, I couldn't help asking, "What did you just say? Can you say that again?"

Rose gave a nod as she said, "I want the successor to be my child."

I slowly looked down at the stomach that she was holding and then the shocked look on my face became even stronger, but at the same time, there was a look of joy that filled my face.

However, I didn't let that joy show as I complained, "Why didn't you tell me sooner?"

Rose revealed an awkward smile as she said, "I wanted to tell you, but I wanted to keep a surprise too." Then she slowly looked at her mother and father before saying, "I also wanted to share it with them."

Both the count and countess were taken aback when they heard this.

The count looked especially strange when he heard this since he never expected Rose to say something like this.

He had thought that with the relationship between them...

It didn't take long for a person to react, but it was neither the count nor me.

It was Rose's mother, Lily.

She came right to Rose's side and even pushed me out of the way so she could take her in her arms before saying, "Darling, why didn't you tell me sooner? This is great news!"

The count and I awkwardly looked at each other before we both gave coughs to calm ourselves down.

The count walked over and said with a nod, "This is indeed good news. It means that there is someone who will carry on our family line. I would gladly make him my successor, if not..."

The count had a complicated look on his face, but he didn't say anything to help his son.

It seemed that he had already accepted this situation.

I was prepared to just throw Henry into a remote place for the rest of his life, but it seemed that he wasn't willing to let things end with just this.

He looked up at me with eyes filled with resentment as if he was saying, "I'll kill you."

Since he was looking at me like this, it wasn't as if I could just leave him be.

"I've changed my mind."

The count was shocked by my sudden words before looking at me with a concerned look.

I ignored this as I looked down at Henry to say, "You want to hurt me, there's no doubt of that. So I'll be taking away your ability to do so."

I gave a nod to Shaka and Shadow Five, "Cripple him. Break all his limbs."

Henry's eyes opened wide in shock and fear when he heard this, but there was nothing that he could do. He was even gagged so he couldn't scream out in pain before fainting from having all his limbs broken.

I turned to the count and said, "Keep him locked up with only a maid that hates him to take care of him. Make sure that she knows that she can do whatever she wants, but she can't kill him."

The count trembled when he heard this, but he still slowly gave a nod.

He knew that this was a test that I was giving him, so if he were to ever try any tricks...it would be the end of him.

It was at that moment that the count realized that there was no way that his daughter would have married a normal person.

She was someone who he feared...so there was no doubt that the one that she married would be just as terrifying.

But there was nothing that he could do about it.

So all he could was accept that this was how it was to be and that he should make the best of it.
