Chapter 383 Too Quick
"Nonsense!" Gideon exclaimed. "Do you think that I will believe you? Do you see me as a fool?"
"My King!"
"I am not your King, you, filthy woman!" He spat out angrily. This was the show that Jiang Yue had prepared for him. Of course, he would not disappoint the future Queen.
Queen Ah-Joong paled even more at the King's words. Since this was all Jiang Yue's plan, Gideon must have been aware of it from the very beginning. He must have been laughing inwardly while celebrating her downfall.
"I-Gideon now declare that you-Kim Ah-Joong, because of adultery and for deceiving the Royalty, are no longer my Queen. You will be stripped off of your title and everything that currently belongs to you will be returned to M Country. You will then live, the remaining days of your life, in prison unless I say otherwise."
Everyone's eyes widened in surprise. How could the King dismiss his Queen in such a manner without even doing a proper investigation?
"All my Ministers shall be my witnesses. From today onwards, I-King Gideon am no longer associated with this woman," he added.
"Your Highness! You can't do this!" The Prime Minister and the Minister of Finance cried out in unison.
"These accusations are baseless!" The minister of Finance added. "We need further investigation and more evidence about this incident!"
"Evidence?" Gideon asked. "I don't need any other evidence about her adulterous ways. Everyone can clearly see that the Crown Prince does not have even a tiny bit of resemblance with me. Is that not enough to prove to you that she was having an affair with someone for already a long time now?"
The Minister of Finance was hindered speechless by Gideon's words. Just what was this man's point now? Did the King know that he was the father of the two Princes?
Even everyone in the room was silent at the King's words. In fact, the King's was just speaking up what everyone already knew. The two Princes and the King did not have any resemblance at all.
"That man that she was with today clearly is the father of these two bastard Princes!" Gideon's declaration was like a thunder in the Queen's ears.
His words were akin to a sharp knife, slowly slicing her heart, making her bleed inside. So, Li Jun knew that her two sons were not his. Was that the reason he never looked at her after she gave birth to her second son?
Was that the reason he never gave the Queen another chance to sneak into his room again?
"I... Your Highness…" she stuttered. At that point, what else could she say?
"Father… I am your son! How could you do this to mother? To us?" Carlisle said, fear apparent in his voice. "You are the one who has raised me. I am your son!" He insisted, as his voice started trembling. How did everything come to this?
They were supposed to frame Jiang Yue. They were supposed to steal the throne from the Li Family that day… how come the King was punishing them now?
"Are you trying to say that my eyes are lying?"
"Your Highness… I…" The Prime Minister was utterly speechless before he shot a quick glance at Jiang Yue who had a bored expression plastered all over her face. Did that woman plan all of this?
"Take Kim Ah-Joong to the prison and inform the Li family about this news." The King ordered while ignoring everyone's horrified expressions.
This was the first time in history that a King disposed of his Queen due to adultery.
Seeing the guards approach her, the Queen did not even make an effort to resist. What for? Everyone in the city must have already known that the woman on the video was her.
They must have been laughing at her now...
The Prime Minister and the other people, siding with the Kim Family, could only swallow their nonexistent saliva, as they watched at her back, as she was escorted by a lot of guards.
Everything happened too quick, they almost forgot to breathe.
It was so sudden that they actually did not know how to react.
Some of them seemed to be so shocked that they actually forgot that the King was still in front of them as they let out long sighs.
