Female Novel
Chapter 1056
“Huh?”
Tiara raised her head and saw Thea. Panic washed over her as she replied hastily, “I-I’m not doing
anything in particular.”
Thea put her arms on her hips and looked at Tiara arrogantly. Then, she said disdainfully, “Tiara, you
shouldn’t think my husband likes you just because you’ve slept with him once. My husband is a
national hero, and it’s not unusual that he’d sleep around with women casually. I advise that you don’t
pester him. He doesn’t have time for idle chatter”
“I-I’m not pestering him! He was the one who asked me to come to Cansington,” Tiara mumbled softly
as she looked down.
“Hmph.” Thea snorted dismissively at her and left.
Tiara clenched her phone tightly and walked inside with her head still lowered.
As soon as she entered the villa, Cynthia pulled her aside and whispered in a concerned voice, “What
happened? Is Thea harassing you again?”
Tiara shook her head gently and said, “No, she didn’t harass me! Cynthia… I was wondering… Should
I not have come back?”
“No, I think there’s no problem about you coming back. James and Thea are divorced, so you have
every right to pursue your own happiness. Don’t be afraid, be brave! You have to take life by the reins
to seize your happiness,” Cynthia said earnestly as she reassuringly rubbed Tiara’s back.
“But…”
“No more buts! By the way, is it true that you’re pregnant?”
Cynthia looked at Tiara’s stomach suspiciously.
After coming to Cansington, Tiara secretly told Cynthia about her pregnancy and even showed her the
medical report.
However, Cynthia noticed no physical signs that suggest that Tiara was even pregnant.
According to the timeline, it has been 12 weeks but her tummy showed no bulging whatsoever.
“Mhm.” Tiara nodded gently.
“Does James know?”
Tiara nodded again.
“Does Thea know?”
Tiara shook her head and said while trembling, “N-Not yet.”
“Okay. I’m going to do my martial squats in the yard. You should be careful and don’t do anything
reckless! You have to keep the baby safe, okay?”
Tiara continued walking with downcast eyes.
James, who had called from the to confirm the news, seemed troubled again.
He and Thea had just managed to reconcile and even finally had sex together. He had decided to treat
Thea well but was now indecisive because of the news that Tiara was pregnant with his child.
Where would his humanity be if he did not take responsibility for this outcome?
Yet… If he took responsibility, then what about Thea?novelbin
“What’s the matter, James? You’re going to make those wrinkles a permanent part of your face if you
frown any harder,” Maxine walked over and asked after she noticed his distressed demeanor.
James looked at Maxine with a stressed grimace. “Tiara’s really pregnant. What should I do?”
Maxine shrugged and replied offhandedly, “How would I know? You shouldn’t be dwelling on this. Your
priority right now is to kill Mr. Gabriel as soon as possible. With that in mind, you should also get the
Blade of Justice. Also, I think that we’ll have to act on both sides simultaneously.”
“Both sides?” James was confused.
“Yeah. You’ll kill Mr. Gabriel while Thea leads the fighters from the God-King Palace to attack Madelyn.
You destroyed the research facilities before. After Madelyn took over the Emperor’s role, she must
have resumed what they were researching before. Before you take action, we have to find the research
facilities and destroy them as part of our plan.”
“Wait… I never told you about it. How did you find out?”
Maxine winked. “Of course, I have my own methods. Listen to me this time. Not only will you kill Mr.
Gabriel, but you’d also be able to eliminate all his subordinates. However…”
Maxine’s expression suddenly turned serious.
“As you said, killing him will definitely have untold consequences. We can’t be sure how many people
will reveal themselves or what they will do. I’m certain that the descendants of the Gu Sect, the
Mavericks, will undoubtedly rear their ugly heads. Fortunately…
“You’re no longer the James of the past. You’d certainly be able to stand alone with your current
strength. These problems wouldn’t amount much to you now. I also look forward to you resolving
everything, retiring, and living an idyllic life in seclusion with your harem of women in the countryside.
How beautiful does that sound?”
Maxine looked at James with a big grin which revealed the dimples on her face.
Her smile was contagious.
