You, Me and Our Genius Twins

Chapter 307

His heart was throbbing in pain.

He had liked Ann for so long, and he was reluctant to conjecture her words with such a muddled mindset. He was even less willing to believe that everything Sebastian and Lucas analyzed were true.

He chased all of his troubled thoughts out of his mind. "Miss Ann, it's not that I'm not willing to; I'm simply unable to do it. The law is just, and you have gone against it, so you have to be punished. No one can escape the law, and I cannot rescue you."

"No, not like this…" Sobbing, Ann shook her head. "I never hurt anyone. Sebastian is my cousin, and this matter is within our family, so why should we resolve it with the law? Please beg Sebastian for mercy and ask him to cancel the charges. As long as he is willing to do it, I'll be able to get out!"

Grayson looked at her and asked, "Miss Ann… Why did you drug Sebastian? You know very well that he already has a wife and a son, so why would you give him that drug?"

He wanted to know the answer to this question.

"Madeline is no wife of his!" Ann said sobbingly, "She doesn't deserve someone like him! Do you know how wicked she is? She was just a servant of the Taylor Family, and she was so insignificant. She had kneeled down in front of countless people, and was insulted by even more. She's a dirty woman, so what right does she have to be Sebastian's spouse? She has even less of a right to be the female head of the Hart Family!"

"You said it yourself that everything is in the past, though!" Grayson then continued slowly, "Back then, she was indeed a minor figure living at the lowest level of society. But now, not only is she the young

mistress of the Taylor Family, she's even Logan's and Luke's beloved sister. Her position now is good enough for her to be Sebastian's wife and the female head of the Hart Family! Moreover, she even gave birth to two intelligent sons for Sebastian. Father loves those children dearly, and you know it! Just because of those two children, she would be the woman most deserving to be Sebastian's wife and the female head of the Hart Family!"

"Oh, those two illegitimate children?" Ann's eyes turned red with hatred. "Grayson, don't you know how many people in the upper class society of Dusktown hate illegitimate children? Those two illegitimate children were a disgrace to Sebastian and the entire Hart Family! Also, the woman who birthed them, Madeline, is the ultimate disgrace to Sebastian and the Hart Family! Why would you think that Madeline deserves to be Sebastian's wife and the female head of the Hart Family simply because of those two illegitimate children? Just because Madeline can give birth? All women can give birth, you know! As long as Sebastian is willing, in all of Dusktown, there is no wealthy young lady who wouldn't want to give birth to Sebastian's children!"

If she were given a chance, she could also give birth to Sebastian's children!

Only the children she birthed could be the heir of the Hart Family, for they'd have noble blood running in their veins!

It was also because of those two illegitimate children that she thought of drugging Sebastian despite everything else.

Madeline could rise to nobility because of her children, so she could do it as well!

Mr. Philip loved grandchildren, didn't he?

Since there weren't any other children in the Hart Family, Mr. Philip had to settle for those two.

How could Madeline's illegitimate children compare to her own children?

If Sebastian slept with her, she would give birth to his son. By then, she could replace Madeline and marry Sebastian, hence becoming the female head of the Hart Family!

This thought had pushed her to plot against Sebastian as if she had lost her wits.

In the end, she failed miserably.

Her pain was at its greatest, and her heart would always ache so much that it felt like a poisoned dagger had pierced it.

Her plan had nearly succeeded.

Just a little bit more, and she would have slept with Sebastian and gotten pregnant with his child.

When she gave birth to Sebastian's child, Madeline and those two illegitimate children wouldn't amount to anything anymore.

Sadly…

She gripped her hair in pain, her tears falling quicker down her face.

"That's not the same!" Grayson continued, "Miss Ann, we grew up together with Sebastian, so you

should know that he doesn't have too much of a liking for women. Sebastian never even saw you in that light. Many women would have loved to have his children, but there wasn't a single woman Sebastian would willingly marry. There were none before, and now, Madeline is the only one. Based on that alone, Madeline has the right to be Sebastian's wife!"

Ann was stunned.

A moment later, she lowered her head in pain, covering her face and shaking her head fiercely. "I don't get it… I don't get it… I love him so much, and I am willing to do everything for his sake, but why? Why does he never look at me, and why doesn't he want to accept my feelings? Which part of me is worse than that wretched Madeline? That wretched woman who groveled all day, who countless people ruined… She was so dirty and despicable, but I was raised with love and care. I am pure and clean, but why isn't he willing to fall for me?"

"Miss Ann, don't speak of Madeline like that!" Grayson frowned as he said, "No matter what Madeline was like before, she is our sister-in-law now. Sebastian will be holding a wedding with her soon to give her a proper identity. After the wedding, she will be Sebastian's lawful wife, as well as the proper female head of the Hart Family. As for you, when you see her next time, you should call her Mrs. Hart…"

"No… No…" Ann shook her head in pain, shouting in a hoarse voice, "She doesn't deserve it! She doesn't deserve it at all!"

She whipped her head up to look at Grayson. "Grayson, you have to stop Sebastian. Don't let him get tricked by Madeline! Sebastian is a pure man, so what right does Madeline have to give birth to his children? She must have played tricks on him so that she could have his children! That sort of woman must be evil and cunning. If Sebastian marries her, it will ruin the entire family. She will destroy the Hart

Family!"

Ann had worked hard for so many years, and she even went to extremes by drugging the man she loved, but she couldn't even touch the fabric of Sebastian's clothes. However, Madeline would be marrying into the Hart Family and become the true female head of the family.

How could this be?

If one could get away from the consequences of murder, she would definitely stab Madeline to death a thousand times, then cut off all her flesh and mince them!

She had never hated a person so much before. She hated Madeline so much that she wanted to tear the latter into pieces, then stomp them into dust!

Seeing her crazed behavior, Grayson no longer wanted to say anything.

The smart, kind, and beautiful Miss Ann he knew had already gone crazy.

She had fallen into jealousy and suffering, and she had lost her wits.

No matter what he said, she wouldn't be able to hear him anymore.

Seeing Grayson stand up silently, Ann panicked. "Grayson, what are you doing?"

"Miss Ann, there is a limit to visitation times," said Grayson lightly. "I should go…"

"No! No!" Ann hastily stood up, grabbing his arm over the desk. Tears streamed down her face as she

begged, "Grayson, don't go! No… Take me with you! Please, Grayson, take me with you. I cannot stay here a minute longer, so please take me with you. You have to get me out of here!"
