Chapter 247

Lionel wasn’t out of his mind, his thoughts were crystal clear, and every word he uttered was well thought out.

He looked at Edda and Alaric seriously and sincerely, saying, “I honestly didn’t see things moving this fast, Daphne being pregnant was indeed a shocker. But I want to marry her, I want to give her a stable home, I mean it.”

“What were you doing before then? Why did you have Daphne take part in a sham marriage with you? You even mentioned sending her abroad for her childbirth, you said that, didn’t you?” Edda asked.

Lionel didn’t deny it, Daphne tugged on Lionel’s arm, signaling him to keep quiet.

But he gently patted her hand, soothing her as he said, “My family situation is a bit complicated.”

Lionel gave a brief rundown of his family situation.

Alaric had thought that Lionel’s family being a ‘bit complicated’ was just that, a bit. He had no idea just how complicated it was.

He was even more surprised to find out that Lionel’s father was the notorious media tycoon, Fabian.

Fabian’s multiple marriages and family issues were the talk of the town, and his media empire was a household name.

But no one could have guessed that Lionel, an actor who had started from a minor role, was actually the eldest son of the media tycoon.

Daphne was even more shocked.

As someone who worked in the magazine industry, she was quite familiar with the name Fabian:

Ever since Lionel decided to pursue Daphne in Cuzco, he hadn’t thought about hiding anything from her anymore. To be precise, he initially wanted to keep things from Daphne, sort out everything, and then tell her the truth, but a phone call with Kieran last night was quite enlightening.

After revealing all the secrets to the Flores family and Daphne, Vicente in front furrowed his brows even deeper.

Before Lionel came here, he was already prepared to leave the entertainment industry, and his agent, Vicente, was about to complete his final mission.

In fact, Lionel was not originally Vicente’s client, but was nurtured by Lionel’s ex-girlfriend, Albertine.

Vicente only took over halfway and was chosen by Lionel as his agent because Albertine married Babur Farrell.

When Vicente first found out Lionel was Fabian’s son, his expression was even more surprised than Daphne’s current one.

Daphne was completely dumbfounded.
