The Hidden Gold Mine Heiress Divorcee

He rushed all the way to the meeting hall without stopping and found that his father and mother were there.

“Father, mother.” Edison bowed and saluted them.

Horton Andrew was over sixty years old, and he looked majestic because of his long-term on the throne.

He looked angry. His tanned face was livid, indicative of his discontent.

Edison clenched his hands nervously.

Suddenly, Horton slammed the table.

He yelled angrily, “Edison! What on earth happened at the engagement banquet?”

When Edison was about to speak, the guard came to report that Duke Bourne had arrived.

As soon as Duke Bourne came in, he howled at the top of his throat, “Your majesty! You must explain what happened on your royal family’s territory. Now my daughter and I have become the laughingstock of the high society in Wesbruck! What will others think of Winifred? How can Winifred socialize in the future? And my reputation is ruined, too!”

“You are not the only one who is ashamed. Stop shouting.” Horton glared at him angrily, “You didn’t watch over your daughter and allowed it to happen. How shameless of you to scold me! Why don’t you explain first why your daughter was in the same room with another strange man!”

Duke Bourne was stunned, “Your majesty, what do you mean?”

“I’m telling the truth. You should give me an explanation first before I investigate it for you. The Western Royalty becomes a laughingstock because of your daughter’s dissolute affair. How will you compensate us?” Horton said coldly with a livid face.

He was the king of Wesbruck and had supreme power.
