The Villainess Redeems Herself, The Beast Husbands are in a Daily Love Battle-Chapter 127: Always and Forever

She finally spoke, her voice trembling slightly.

The words had barely left her mouth, spun around twice in her mouth, and were forcibly swallowed back down.

She suddenly realized that once she lied, it might become a lie she had to keep for a lifetime.

They all looked at her expectantly, making her feel uneasy.

She really couldn’t bring herself to lie.

She decided to blame it on the previous poison.

"I... was poisoned before I got married."

She said softly, her voice trembling a little.

Caleb Shaw’s breath hitched, his pupils constricted, his fist clenched tightly, and his knuckles made a light cracking sound.

Was he only finding out about this now?

"That poison made it very difficult for me to get pregnant," Selene continued, "even the doctors said I might never be able to conceive. But strangely, after that poisoning, my body underwent changes, my endocrine system reorganized, my metabolism accelerated, and even my pregnancy term was shortened to just half the normal time."

She paused, her eyes slightly red.

"I’m sorry I didn’t tell you before, I was afraid you’d worry... I didn’t even believe I could conceive, and I was more afraid that if I told you, you’d think there was something wrong with me, despise me, and abandon me."

After she finished speaking, she cooperated by covering her mouth with a few sobs, her shoulders trembling slightly, her head lowered, not daring to meet their eyes.

Only daring to peek through her fingers at their faces, observing their reactions.

This story was actually quite absurd, logically full of holes.

What poison can precisely shorten a pregnancy without affecting the fetus?

Yet they all believed it.

Perhaps out of love, or perhaps out of an instinct to protect her, they chose to believe this far-fetched explanation.

Evan Sinclair’s face darkened, his eyes suddenly cold, the veins at his temples pulsing slightly.

"Who poisoned you? How dare they lay a hand on the Female Master... I’ll personally tear her apart, make her unable to live or die!"

Ethan Sinclair said nothing, just stood silently to the side, his hands clenched into fists.

His eyes were like knives, coldly scanning everyone, the chill in his gaze blatant, identical to his brother’s.

Heath Langdon, although appearing calm on the surface, sat upright in his chair, back straight.

But the slightly trembling fingertips gave away the turmoil in his heart.

Caleb Shaw still had his arms crossed, leaning against the soft couch beside him.

Whether he believed it or not, no one knew.

Only the barely noticeable tremor of his eyelashes betrayed a trace of contemplation.

In this oppressive silence, a slow, teasing voice broke the stagnant air.

"Oh my, oh my... this matter, actually isn’t that surprising."

Everyone turned their heads, only to see Alza leisurely strolling out from the corner.

"Our Fox Clan did have a similar strange poison, capable of disturbing the mind and inducing illusions, but it was lost centuries ago."

He sighed gently, a hint of nostalgia flashing in his eyes.

"I never expected that someone would actually manage to recreate it now, and use it on you... truly sigh-inducing."

He was dressed in a flowing ancient style robe today, black as the base color, trimmed with silver, the cuffs embroidered with flowing cloud patterns.

This outfit was designed by Selene Kane herself.

She had once looked at Alza’s stunningly handsome face and couldn’t help thinking.

"This level of beauty, not wearing ancient style clothing is simply a waste!"

Now, seeing him like this, he was indeed breathtaking, making it impossible to look away.

Especially the tear mole that seemed to appear and disappear at the corner of his eye.

It was a charm without aggression, yet capable of quietly stirring one’s heart.

Selene Kane still remembered the first time he transformed into human form.

At that moment, she, who prided herself on being "well-versed and knowledgeable," suddenly felt her heart contract.

Without even having time to think, she pounced, almost knocking the newly transformed Alza over.

The system’s voice sounded timely.

"Alright, alright, stop exaggerating, if you keep this up, he’s going to ascend."

Selene Kane blinked, guiltily rubbing her nose: "I call this an objective statement, an outpouring of true feelings, get it?"

The system replied coldly: "If you keep acting, I’m almost believing you’re truly in love. Actually, I can activate a magnetic field shield, making those around unable to detect your mental fluctuations when you lie."

Selene Kane’s eyes widened, almost jumping up.

"Then why didn’t you do it earlier? It was so dangerous just now, I almost got torn apart by Evan Sinclair on the spot!"

The system spoke indifferently: "Who knew you’d be able to cover it up so smoothly? Spur of the moment, logically tight, even I almost believed it. Activate the shield early? How could I have known you’d be so good at acting?"

"Less talk, activate it now! Don’t wait for them to catch on!"

"Ding—" a light sound.

The next moment, the expressions on Evan Sinclair, Ethan Sinclair, Heath Langdon, and Caleb Shaw all relaxed at once.

It was like they suddenly forgot the confrontation just now, naturally gathering around Selene Kane.

"Female Master, you’re about to give birth, you must be very nervous these days, right? Is there anywhere you feel uncomfortable?"

"We’re all here with you, don’t worry, everything’s taken care of by us."

Heath Langdon handed over a cup of warm tea: "Have something to drink, warm yourself up."

Caleb Shaw gently patted her shoulder, whispering: "Don’t be afraid, we’re here."

Their tones were as usual, their concern sincere and natural.

Selene Kane breathed a long sigh of relief, the cold sweat on her back gradually drying.

She raised her hand to wipe the cold sweat on her forehead.

Finally, she managed to bluff her way through...

But just as she looked up, her gaze happened to meet Alza’s fox-like eyes that were filled with laughter.

He remained standing in place, the corners of his lips slightly upturned, his eyes deep and smiling as he stared at her.

What startled her even more was that he quietly moved his lips, mouthing silently, "I remember, Female Master."

Selene Kane’s heart tightened sharply.

She immediately cried out in her mind.

"System, we’re in trouble! He just exposed my lie, is the shield ineffective on him?"

The system’s voice was low: "Yes. As a High Rank bloodline of the Fox Clan, he has the innate ability to see through illusions and spiritual interference. The magnetic field shield doesn’t work on him."

"Oh no, oh no, this is big trouble!"

She was almost about to cry, her heart pounding like a drum.

But the next second, she forced herself to stay calm, slightly winked at Alza, and made a "shh" gesture with her fingers at her lips, her smile sly and somewhat ingratiating.

Alza was stunned at first, then covered his mouth with a laugh, his shoulders shaking slightly.

At this moment, he straightened his back.

Previously, he always felt that he wasn’t close to the Female Master, their statuses too disparate.

Facing the Sinclair brothers, he didn’t dare say much, let alone compete for favor, for fear of displeasing her.

But now things were different.

He and she shared a secret.

This feeling of being trusted, being pulled into her camp, made him feel an indescribable satisfaction and excitement.

This feeling was exhilarating.

As for why she managed to escape detection, was it really important?

Not important.

What mattered was that she chose him.

Even if it was just a moment’s conspiracy, it was enough to make his heart race.

She was his Female Master, always would be.

Regardless of how time flowed or fate changed.

This role had long been engraved deep within his soul.
