Whether they were genuinely enthusiastic or helpless under oppression, since they had made such a statement, Charles could be satisfied, he had achieved his goal through today's strong raid, and he had once again established himself as a strong and indisobedient image in the minds of everyone, he didn't care if others really supported him, as long as they obeyed him.

When today's meeting was over and the vote was completed, the meeting convened by Charles was closed, and it was late at night, and some of the guests who were present chose to leave for the night, while others simply chose to stay.

As a well-appointed place for the Charles, there was certainly no shortage of places to rest and play, and those who remained were well fed and well-fed began to enjoy their leisure and pleasure here, and as for Charles himself, under Mary's special instructions, no one went to disturb His Excellency, only Mary herself stayed with Charles.

Although she was bent on conceiving Charles' child, Mary knew that she still had important things to do, so she could only curb this idea temporarily, but even so, she still welcomed Charles, and stayed by Charles's side all night, trying her best to please Charles, which made Charles very happy.

It wasn't until dawn the next day that Mary reluctantly said goodbye to Charles, and watched Charles' carriage leave the secret club and make its way home.

It wasn't until noon that Charles returned to his mansion in the suburbs. Because of the meeting and the hustle and bustle of last night, he is now a little tired, but refreshed.

Originally, he wanted to take a rest in his study, but as soon as he sat down on the chaise longue in the study, Charlotte immediately came to look for him.

"Charles!" As soon as she broke into the study, she shouted directly at her husband.

"What's going on?" Charles half-opened his eyes.

"Why are you so tired? Posing like this early in the morning, what the hell happened last night? Charlotte looked at her husband with some concern.

"Hey...... What else could it be? Didn't sleep well last night. Charles sighed, "I spoke with a group of important people in the early hours of the morning, just to explain a decision of His Majesty the Emperor, and finally to persuade them to agree to carry it out...... They bounced back a lot and I had to run out of energy. But luckily, it's finally done. ”

After hearing Charles's explanation, Charlotte finally relaxed slightly, and then looked at her husband lying on the chaise longue, her brows furrowed slightly, and her tone became harsh.

"I'm afraid that's not just consuming your energy, isn't it? You went with that Mademoiselle de LΓ©oland, right? God knows how she flattered you last night...... Doesn't she want to stammer with Your Excellency? I don't think so. ”

Since Charles became a minister, he has been out for inspections or business trips a lot, and his affairs in the ministry are often very busy, so it is common for him not to return home at night, and Charlotte has long been accustomed to her husband's busyness, but yesterday was different, she saw Charles leave with Mary.

As soon as Charlotte said this, Charles's heart immediately shook, and his expression remained unchanged on the surface, but his mind spun rapidly, speculating whether his wife knew any clues, because what Charlotte said was indeed the truth.

However, although he had a lot of thoughts in his heart, he made an impatient expression, "Alright, Charlotte, don't do this! Mary has been a faithful assistant to our family, she has served us faithfully for several years, and she is now one of the assistants I rely on to carry out important tasks. We should treat this kind of person well and let them get the rewards they deserve, you shouldn't chill people with these unwarranted suspicions and attacks! ”

"Hmph...... Do you think she just wants to be an assistant? I know by the way she looks, she wants to climb up to you and be a glamorous mistress in front of you. Perhaps thinking of the conflict with her yesterday, Charlotte showed a disdainful smile, "I've seen a lot of people like her, and I'm willing to pay any price for getting a little rich." ”

"I think you're being too harsh, she's not that kind of person." Charles reluctantly defended Mary again, "Okay, let's not talk about this kind of thing, you didn't come to me just to fight with me for her, did you?" If so, then I won't be with you! I don't have the energy to waste your suspicions right now. ”

Seeing her husband's impatient appearance, Charlotte sank her gaze, as if she was speculating on the sincerity of her husband's words.

Although she was a little suspicious that her husband had gone out with Mary in private and had not returned for the night, she did not want to be entangled in this matter for the sake of it without any basis, to make him angry, and to affect the lives of both of them.

"I want to tell you something, so you can be prepared." She was no longer as serious as she was just now, but leaned over to her husband's side and whispered softly.

"What's the matter?" Charles immediately asked.

"We're going to have another child soon!" Charlotte smiled, leaned down and whispered in Charles' ear, "I've felt this way before, but after you left yesterday, I asked the doctor to confirm it for me." ”

"Oh?" Charles was stunned for a moment, then excited, and suddenly sat up with joy, "Really? That's great! Charlotte ...... Thank you for your hard work. ”

However, although he was happy, he did not have the ecstasy when he first heard that his wife was pregnant, after all, the first time is the most precious, and when he became a father, his wife's pregnancy again would not be so exciting, not to mention that this was his third child!

Seeing Charles's excitement at this "ordinary level", Charlotte, who was full of desire to surprise her husband, couldn't help but be a little disappointed, and she couldn't help but ask again. "What, aren't you satisfied? Didn't you want to have children before? If it weren't for you, I wouldn't want to suffer that year again! After giving birth, I realized how happy I was to be able to live the same life! ”

"Lolot, I'm so grateful to you, really." Charles immediately hugged him, "We've always been a little bit of a family, and I'm glad that in our generation, we have the responsibility to make this family flourish...... The two of us took on this responsibility and did not disappoint our grandfather and ancestors...... Thank you, Charlotte, for giving me the right to face them......"

"That's what it sounds like!" Seeing her husband's expression, Charlotte finally relieved, "Then do you want a boy or a girl this time?" ”

"It doesn't matter, as long as it's our children, it doesn't matter if it's male or female." Charles smiled and ruffled his wife's hair, "Besides, now that I have them, why bother with them?" ”

"Both?" Charlotte looked at Charles in confusion, not quite understanding what he meant.

Belch...... Charles's heart tightened, and he regretted his gaffe, and then he immediately put on a smile on his face.

"I mean, as long as the two of us continue to live lovingly, there will definitely be many children, and there will be no shortage of men and women, so why bother with this one?"

"You...... What nonsense are you talking about! was teased by Charles, Charlotte's doubts disappeared immediately, leaving only some inexplicable shyness, and pushed her husband hard.

"How can this be considered nonsense? It's something that's supposed to happen between couples, isn't it? Charles continued to tease Charlotte, "Charlotte, you are the heir to our Trevill family and my wife, you were born to have everything, including children. At this point, even if I can't put you past Her Majesty Queen Teresa, I want you to be compared to Her Majesty Queen Victoria......"

"I'm talking crazy again, and you're not ashamed to say this kind of thing!" Charlotte gave him a blank look, but there was a smile in her eyes.

Her Majesty Empress Theresa is not actually the emperor of the Holy Roman Empire, her husband is, but because of her merits, everyone is used to saying this, she and her husband have been very loving all their lives, and have given birth to more than a dozen children - including the severed head Cleopatra Antoinette, and Her Majesty Queen Victoria has nothing to say about her relationship with her husband, and now she has given birth to several children. On the one hand, it also implies that he wants to expand his relationship with the Treyville family, who are not prosperous in Charlotte.

It's no wonder that when she heard Charles say this, Charlotte was shy and happy at the same time.

"How can it be called crazy? It's our obligation, isn't it? Charles still laughed and teased.

"Okay, I don't want to talk to you about this nonsense, tell you the rest of the thing." Charlotte couldn't help but pinch him, "You rest first, let's go to Dad's for dinner together in the afternoon, he called someone to invite us yesterday." ”

"Oh? So? Charles nodded quickly. Okay, I got it. ”

Charlotte's father, naturally his father-in-law, Philippe de Treville, has now inherited the title of duke, and has inherited the mansion that was carefully built during the original old duke's lifetime.

But that's all he can inherit, according to the old duke's will, his granddaughter Charlotte is the main heir to his huge estate, and the duke is more like a beneficiary of an annuity, receiving a fixed discount from the estate every year, and then living in that mansion.

Although both the Duke and his eldest son Philip were a little difficult to accept and react when the will was first announced, it seems that the Duke accepted his father's arrangement and continued to live his life without complaint - because of the guilt for his father, and anyway, he was also a father, so Charlotte was very generous to the Duke, and was happy to reimburse his father for bills and expenses, and after making sure that his quality of life was not worried or affected, the Duke was also happy to relax.

As was the case in the past, the Duke now often entertained guests, sometimes calling his daughter and son-in-law, especially after Charlotte gave birth to a son, which was not surprising to Charles.

So, after Charlotte had finished speaking, she left the study to disturb her husband's rest, and Charles fell asleep on the chaise longue again, recovering her tired spirits.

In the evening, he was woken up by Charlotte who had returned, and after a little refreshing, he followed Charlotte to Charlotte's maiden home, the Duke of Treville's mansion.

"Oh, lo and behold! The big man in our family is finally here! When he heard the news of the arrival of the Charles, the Duke of Treville immediately greeted him and enthusiastically stood in front of his daughter and son-in-law.

Then, while hugging his daughter, he looked at Charles with a smile, "Charles, you finally have time to come!" I feel like I haven't seen you in a long time! ”

"I've been a little busy lately, sorry......" Charles shrugged. But this time I'm bringing your grandson here, so you can make it up for your father. (To be continued.) )
