Chapter 1017: Shani's And Selene's Introduction (2)



Tala sat awkwardly beside Fifi, her expression firm. However, she was grateful she didn't have to endure this when she joined the household. She just couldn't wait until she conceived to

return to her training.

"You might be a Queen and a Caretaker and among the Key Leaders, but here in this household, titles mean nothing," Ingrid said. "We have many more questions, but we're truly interested in who you are beyond your titles. So, go ahead-introduce yourselves. We're waiting."

Ingrid's tone was serious. As one of the few who felt genuinely threatened by the two women's arrival, she wanted to understand their genuine relationship with Orion and dispel doubts about their intentions before addressing the more pressing concerns.

Selene and Shani couldn't help but furrowed their brows at Ingrid's words. It's been decades since they heard someone speak to them in such a manner and tone.

Nonetheless, before they arrived, they knew what they would face. As such, they swiftly suppressed their reactions and nodded in understanding.

Selene spoke first, introducing herself and revealing some personal secrets. She explained how she would prefer remaining a mistress to becoming one of the main wives. Although some women felt relieved after this revelation, they knew their opinions about her might change. However, they couldn't make such a decision themselves now.

After Selene had finished speaking, Shani proceeded to do the same. After she was done speaking, she made a shocking revelation. "Also, I am pregnant with Orion's child. I promise to care for my child with as much love as I had given my first, and it would be a blessing if I could also experience the care and support of my sisters."

Celeste took a long breath at Orion's defeated expression before pulling him in for a hug, wrapping her arms around him.

"You know I can't stay angry at you for long," Celeste said. "However, you need to calm the other women's agitations, as they all feel threatened by Shani's and Selene's arrival. I won't help you speak with them, and I will gladly support whatever circumstances they choose to make you go through." Even if they didn't do anything extreme, she knew the women wouldn't let Orion off easily for his actions.

"Cough! Won't you help me? Don't tell me you want me to suffer at their hands?" Orion said, his expression looking pitiful. His hand descended, gently grasping Celeste's left butt cheek under her dress, moulding it softly.

Celeste wore a flowery knee-length dress that did little to conceal her curves. Feeling Orion's touch, she let out a soft moan. "Mmm~~ As their mother-in-law, it's my duty to ensure that my daughter-in-laws are treated well. And as their fellow sisters, it's also my responsibility to help correct any wrongdoings of our partner. So rather than letting you suffer, I'm actually letting you off quite lightly," she responded, her warm breath mingling with Orion's before she leaned in, kissed him briefly, and then pulled back.

"Although your touch is still as amazing as ever, I'm so mad at you that I won't allow you easily escape the mess you've created," Celeste said, freeing herself from Orion's grasp and turning to walk back towards the main room, her hand still holding Orion's.

Just as they reached the edge of the door, a loud feminine voice erupted, "I SAID LET'S TALK OUTSIDE!"

Recognizing the owner of the voice, Celeste and Orion quickly entered the room. They saw Crystalia and Selene heading outside, with Elysia trailing behind them.

"Fix this," Celeste said, her tone laced with worry as she glanced at Orion.

Orion nodded, his expression serious. He had no intention of sitting idly by and observing. He immediately went after them.
