Betrayed by the Father Reborn in His Rival's Arms novel Chapter 166

The butler immediately hurried out to execute the order.

Madeline hadn't anticipated this. She had brought a shield, but Arthur was wielding a battering ram.

She had intended to force Arthur to honor his promise regarding the divorce.

Instead, Arthur planned to forcefully abort Liliana's baby, ensuring the mistress suffered the consequences of her own actions while completely silencing Madeline's complaints.

Lucius eagerly played along, clinging to the 'drugged' excuse, which gave Arthur the perfect loophole to save face. No matter what Madeline argued, Arthur refused to listen.

Suddenly, the low hum of approaching engines echoed from outside the estate.

A procession of sleek luxury vehicles rolled up the driveway.

Arthur sent someone to check the commotion, but as he glanced out, he was shocked to recognize the fleet of limited-edition cars—vehicles so exclusive you could count them on one hand nationwide.

The butler rushed back inside, breathless, and delivered his report. Arthur's face drained of color.

He instantly recognized the crest on the incoming vehicles.

Arthur abruptly turned to Lucius. "This Liliana... is she connected to the Prescott family?"

Lucius was entirely out of the loop, but seeing his grandfather's deadly serious expression, he replied, "Yes."

"Why the hell didn't you say so earlier?" Arthur stood up from his armchair and began pacing the room.

Decades ago, when the Prescott family was still the undisputed titan of the city, their wealth already rivaled small nations. Eventually, they shifted their assets overseas, expanding their investments globally and cementing themselves as the wealthiest tycoons in the expatriate circles.

Arthur simply never imagined that the pathetic little mistress clinging to Lucius was tied to the monstrous Prescott empire.

Madeline hadn't left yet. She was genuinely perplexed—just who exactly was Liliana, and what kind of untouchable backing did she have?
