Chapter 242: Chapter 242: Go Invite Miss Ji

Le Yuanhou kicked her away in a fit of rage, growling, "What did you just say?!"

Granny Cai seemed to have lost her mind, anxiously explaining, "Lady Hou's child, the child Lady Hou left behind, it's not her, it's not her. She's the daughter of the Wang family, the daughter of Lady Wang! Lady Hou's child, I strangled her. But I am innocent, it was the Wang family who forced me to do it. They are to blame, they are the ones to blame!"

Le Yuanhou almost stumbled and fell. His face turned deathly pale. His heart was in turmoil, bombarded with so many emotions, he nearly fainted. He gritted his teeth before barely managing to ask, "Then… my daughter? Is she dead?"
