NovelEnglishChapter 792 Chapter 792 Lionel sighed heavily. "A second-rank official is allowed up to four concubines. Since Dad already has four, taking another would exceed the limit. While many officials bend the rules, His Majesty expects his ministers to set a proper example. Since Dad is a model civil servant, he wouldn't want to tarnish his reputation.
Kylie's expression darkened, her voice trembling slightly as she exclaimed, "It's foolish! If he takes a liking to someone and brings her in as a maid, wouldn't that leave him free to do as he pleases? With how things are now, the love between our parents will beca laughingstock, and Dad's reputation will be ruined!" She gripped the armrest tightly, fury shining in her eyes "And the Hell Monarch! Why did he have to announce it publicly?" Lionel felt a knot of confusion in his chest. He was unsure of how to face his dad. However, he felt compelled to explain further, given Kylie's distress.

The Hell Monarch grew impatient after an hour and simply tossed that remark before he left." Lionel smiled bitterly. "We were too arrogant. We thought we could dismiss Carissa as insignificant, so we deliberately made things difficult for her. Ultimately, we ended up hurting ourselves. It's our own fault." Kylie shook her head. "But that doesn't mean he has the right to expose others' secrets. Why should Dad have to wait for him at hjust because he decided to drop by?" "Your Majesty, don't hold a grudge against the Hell Monarch or Commander Sinclair," Lionel said sternly. If we stir up more trouble now, it could really turn into a feud between families. The Hell Monarch is well-loved by the people, and Commander Sinclair is a role model for women..." "What kind of role model? The true role model for women is me, the queen!" Kylie snapped.
She disliked hearing that phrase the most. It made her genuinely unhappy.
Lionel pressed on, "You are the queen, the mother of all citizens. That's beyond dispute. Is it worth it to compare yourself to a mere subject? Your Majesty, don't lose sight of this." With only Lydia present in the hall, Lionel adopted a more authoritative tone as an elder brother. "Remember this-His Majesty has never fully trusted neither the Hell Monarch nor our family. As the queen, you should align yourself with His Majesty's sentiments. At the very least, you must present a united front on the surface. Show respect for those he promotes. Don't engage in petty schemes, or you'll only bring harm to yourself and others." Kylie had always held a deep respect for her dad and elder brother, so she didn't argue back. Instead, she simply said, "I understand. Don't worry too much, Lionel. But your wife used to enjoy attending Eleanor's gatherings, so we should be cautious. The SuprCourt might use that against us.

This time, the Hell Monarch only mentioned the issue of the mistress and didn't bring up my wife. Clearly, they don't see that connection as significant," Lionel replied. Chapter 792 He didn't say much more. By now, Malcolm had probably returned. Since the situation had already happened, they could only discuss how to respond. Lionel wondered how their grandfather and mom would react to this news.
Meanwhile, Malcolm and his wife, Marjorie, had returned to the Quinton family's residence. Once inside, Herbert pulled Malcolm into the study and bronched the subject.

"Please say something, Malcolm!" Herbert urged, panic creeping into his voice. "Everyone is worried sick. Lionel even went to confront Carissa for clarity on the situation. Just tell us what you know!"
"What is there to say?" Malcolm replied hollowly, lifting his gaze to meet his brother's. "If you believe it, E then it's true. If you don't, it's false." Herbert froze, confusion etched on his face. "What do you mean by that?"
