Chapter 265
Caspian quickly caught on Daisy’s point.
“Since I was born?” Caspian asked in confusion, “What’s suspicious about a newborn baby?”
Daisy cast a profound gaze at Caspian, and she replied, “If you’re his biological son, he naturally won‘t suspect you, but what if you’re not?”
“What?!” Caspian exclaimed.
In that instant, he felt as if an invisible hand was violently grabbing on his heart, and his internal organs were being twisted like dough.
He was thunderstruck, and his mind buzzed.
The sudden news was simply too unbelievable.
Daisy expected Caspian’s reaction, and she did not say anything but just quietly watched him.
“You’re saying… I’m not Edgar’s son?” After some time, Caspian slightly recovered from the shock.
“You’re saying… My mother…”
Caspian’s impression of his mother was always gentle and elegant, and she would never do such a thing to betray others!
“You’re mistaken, Caspian,” Daisy shook her head, “Based on the truth I know, your mother’s not from Salleria, and no one knew where her origin even after she passed away.
I’m afraid that even Edgar didn’t know either.
Moreover, you were brought over to Salleria by a surrogate.
Edgar and your mother were only husband and wife on paper, but they did not consummate their marriage.”
“What… What’s going on…” Caspian felt his throat was dry.
Everything that Daisy said had shattered his tens of years of memories and beliefs.
Caspian wanted to believe that Daisy lied to him as their countries were at war with each other.
However, in the depths of Caspian’s heart, he understood that Daisy told the truth.
“What’s going on…” Caspian mumbled.
“Caspian, think about it.
Since you were a child, have you ever felt something strange?” Daisy stared at Caspian.
Although her tone was still as indifferent as before, there was a trace of sympathy and affection in the depth of her eyes.
“Didn’t you feel as if the people around you were purposely hiding something? Everything that you know of this world seemed to be separated by a giant invisible hand.
Everything that you learned was informed to you willingly, and only matters they wanted you to know.
You never had the chance to acquire knowledge on your own.”
Daisy’s words immediately opened the door to his memories.
Caspian recalled that when he was young, his maids were all carefully selected.
Moreover, he would have the same maids for all those years.
Everyone that he had contact with appeared respectful of him, but their gazes were cold.
Not.
only that, but Caspian could also clearly feel that they alienated him.
In the beginning, Caspian thought it was due to their difference in identities.
However, now he recalled the past, everything that those people uttered was carefully thought out.
It was as if someone ordered them behind his back what they could say and what they should not.
Caspian lived in a delicately-arranged cage, and he was not aware of it at all!
At the thought of that, Caspian’s blood surged in his chest.
“Why didn’t he just kill me? After my mother’s death, there were countless opportunities for him to do that,” Caspian replied after taking a deep breath.
Daisy shook her head.
“I don’t know about that, but it might be related to your mother.
Perhaps even after your mother’s death, there was still something that bothered him, and he didn’t dare to kill you. This belongs to NôvelDrama.Org: ©.
Or, even though you’re not his biological son, he couldn’t bring himself to kill you as he nurtured you for more than ten years.”
Caspian scoffed.
“If it’s really love, he wouldn’t have used reasons such as licentious behavior and usurping the throne to lock me up at the deepest floor of the hellhole prison.
That place is notoriously known as hell on earth.”
When Daisy heard that, she silently sighed and said nothing more.
“There’s something else that I want to ask you.”
Caspian took a deep breath in as if he made a big decision.
Then, finally, he asked, “How’s… Camille?”
When Caspian asked that, his voice was somewhat trembling.
The reason was simple, Camille was his sister.
Even though he was aware that Camille might no longer be his real sister, he always regarded Camille as his blood sister, and he loved and cared for her in all those years.
When they were still in Salleria, Camille was the apple of Caspian’s eyes.
Hence, when Camille blamed Caspian for planning to instigate an improper relationship between them, Caspian felt as if his heart was about to shatter.
The person that he cared for the most treated him so vilely, and Caspian was utterly disheartened.
“Camille? Are you concerned about her, or are you planning to kill her?” Daisy looked askance at him, Caspian did not answer.
“Alright, I’ll just tell you,” Daisy pouted, “I don‘t know anything about Camille as I don’t stay in Salleria’s palace.”
When she said that, Daisy suddenly changed the topic.
“You want to seek revenge, right?”
“Yes,” Caspian did not dodge her question, “I want to go back.”
“You’re such a stubborn guy!” Daisy sneered, “Since you’ve decided, then I’ll share with you a good date.”
“What date?” Caspian asked, turning his head over to look at her.
“In January next year, Edgar will celebrate his 30th year on the throne.
Three months ago, he already sent an edict to the whole country.
Several neighboring countries have also received his invitations.” Daisy glanced at Caspian sideways.
“What do you think of that day?”
Caspian shut his eyes, not answering her.
Daisy pursed her lips.
Even though Caspian did not respond, she knew that he remembered the day.
Suddenly, Daisy’s expression turned grave, and she added, “However, you must think carefully.
Carson is now the Great Oceans Sect’s disciple, and although there’s no news of Camille, there’s a high probability that she entered a sect.
As for Edgar, he naturally consumed the precious medicines from the sect, and his strength greatly improved.
If you return to Salleria rashly, you might suffer a big loss.
Thus, it’s better for you to be well-prepared.
Otherwise, you might not be able to escape Salleria alive.
Then, what’s the point of me saving you so many times? I’ve even traveled so far this time.
If you die, all the time and effort would be wasted.”
Daisy’s tone was filled with anger and grievance, but no one knew who she was angry with.
On the other hand, Caspian thought it was rather funny, and he opened his eyes.
The girl in front of him hugged her legs, pouting as she stared at him.
Noticing that Caspian looked at her, Daisy widened her eyes in surprise.
Then, she stuck her tongue out at him, making a silly face.
“If you look at me for another second, I’m going to dig your eyes out!”
Even though Daisy threatened Caspian, her tone was not scary at all.
