Chương 371: Gewen Is Conflicted

"Did she tell you why she wanted to meet Ellena?" Mars felt his heart was pounding so hard. There must be something going on. He needed to know everything. "Did she end up meeting Ellena?"

"She said she had a plan and it will involve Ellena," said Lily. "I sent the message discreetly as Emmelyn asked. I told my servant to pay a boy from the market to send the message to Lady Ellena in her parents' home."

She continued, "I am not sure if they did meet. But on the day she gave birth to Harlow,  Emmelyn told me she feared for her life. She knew the only reason she was spared from execution was that she was still pregnant with Harlow. After Harlow was born, she thought the Prestons would try to kill her."

Mars clenched his fists when he heard Lily's last words. He understood what must be going on in Emmelyn's mind.
