Rene fell to the ground as she began to cry. "Y-Your Majesty… please, not that."
Her body trembled, and Iris started crying too, as if sensing her mother's desperation and humiliation.
Seeing the scene, Claude stood and walked toward Iris, gently lifting the child into his arms and bouncing her softly to calm her down.
Rene watched in horror, terrified of what he might do. She didn't know his true intentions, but one thing was clear—he was cruel, dangerous, and unpredictable.
"P-please don't do anything to my baby… and don't humiliate me any more than this… I can't take it anymore."
She knelt to the ground, all pride stripped away. But the idea of having sex in front of her husband—that was too cruel. Too unbearable.
She loved Enzo. In her eyes, he was a good man—a kind, cheerful soul who took care of her and her daughter.
She had already betrayed him. She didn't want to twist the knife any deeper.
