The Divorced Heiress’s Revenge

Chapter 2168

"Whatever I tell you tonight stays between us. I'm telling you this because I trust you. You're not from Sentania anyway, so it doesn't matter if you know." The man's voice turned husky. "Nadia is the king's personal bodyguard, but there were rumors that she was the king's lover."

The man carried on. "Apparently, the king was deeply in love with Nadia, and they were intimate. She even carried the king's baby. I don't know why she was given the death penalty for treason. She fled and went missing for over thirty years. She might be dead somewhere out there."
