Lorne's reaction confirmed Natalie's statement.
Looking at Baron Fast who almost jumped out of his chair, the Paladin Captain also understood that Lorne had not lied before.
The pregnant Athena was indeed not in Lorne.
Well here.
However, Baron Fast's excessive attitude made Natalie even more suspicious that Lorne had something to do with Athena's pregnancy.
He was not a fledgling paladin like Athena.
With decades of age, the Paladin Commander is not only the best in the church in terms of martial arts, but also has a much better eye for people than ordinary Paladins.
At least she didn't think Lorne was inhumane like Fanny did.
From the way Baron Fast walked and sounded, she could tell that the guy in front of her was a complete man.
Since Lorne is very normal, is it possible that the child in Athena's belly is actually the seed of Baron Fast?
Natalie was shocked by her guess, but Wendell personally admitted that he had defiled Athena.
Wendell couldn't possibly like to raise his son for others.
While Natalie was thinking wildly, Lorne's mind was not at peace either.
However, this guy was good at keeping himself calm.
Even though he had been exposed, he still found a way to correct his behavior.
"As a Paladin, Athena Stuart's behavior is simply shameful.
As a member of the church, I despise such false believers.
Lord Paladin, I promise that if Athena is found She will definitely be captured and sent to the church so that everyone can see clearly the dirty crimes she committed."
He attributed his recent gaffe to righteous indignation, but after all, it was impossible for Lorne to pretend that he didn't know anything about Athena's pregnancy.
"By the way, Your Excellency, Lord Paladin, you said Athena Stuart is pregnant.
When did she become pregnant?
Is the father of the child Wendell Stuart?"
Lorne thought that his question was actually normal and everyone was curious, but his words reminded Natalie.
Calculating the time when Athena was pregnant, it was not the time on the Heretic Island.
According to Athena's confession and the clues she has, it seems that there is another person besides Wendell who has the opportunity to defile Athena when the girl was in a coma.
She looked at Lorne in front of her.
If she remembered correctly, Athena said that she saw two men when she woke up.
Wendell has already admitted that he defiled the girl while she was in a coma, so what the other Lorne is doing can't just be watched by Baron Fast for pleasure.
Thinking that Wendell once said that Lorne would help him, the paladin leader came to a very dirty conclusion.
When recalling the entourage that Baron Fast arranged outside, this is not showing off the power of the Fast family, it is simply a sign of guilty conscience.
With many doubts, Natalie even began to doubt whose seed the child in Athena's belly was.
However, asking about this kind of thing will definitely lead to no results.
Natalie decided to stay in Lorne for the time being, partly to wait for Athena's arrival.
Apart from Lorne, the paladin leader didn't know where else to find Athena.
On the other hand, of course, he wanted to investigate whether Lorne had ever defiled Athena.
If so, then she had to do something.
Fortunately, although this was Lorne's territory, with the church knights brought by Bishop Sophia, Natalie was not worried at all that Lorne would dare to resist.
"The father of the child is still under investigation.
If the Baron has any clues, please let me know.
The time is about the same as when Your Excellency went to the Heretic Island.
It seems that Your Excellency has formed a deep friendship with Athena there, and she is likely to Come here to see your Excellency.”
Lorne tested Natalie, and the paladin leader deliberately brought the topic to the baron.
Sure enough, this move was very effective.
Natalie, who had been paying attention to Lorne, noticed that Baron Fast's expression was slightly shaken.
"Isn't Wendell already incarcerated?

Is there anyone else besides him who is the father of the child?"
The latter sentence was regarded by Lorne as Natalie's ridicule.
Lorne focused on the first sentence of the Paladin Captain.
As the child's real father, of course he did not want Natalie to continue to investigate.
Before coming here, Natalie also thought that Wendell was responsible for Athena's belly.
But after meeting Lorne, Baron Fast seemed to be more suspicious.
"Wendell Stuart is just one of them.
Only after finding Athena can we determine who is the biological father of the child.
I may have to disturb the Baron during the next period of time.
I hope the Baron will welcome me as an uninvited guest."
He still wanted to stay.
As soon as Baron Fast finished his welcome words, he was ready to give up Natalie's idea.
"Of course I welcome the Paladin Commander to stay, but aren't you looking for Athena?
I don't think she will come to me.
In fact, based on my relationship with her, you should know very well that Athena Stuart is absolutely Will not come to me."
He told Natalie clearly that he and Athena were at odds, but the paladin's next words made Baron Fast's back start to shiver.
"The Baron misunderstood.
I never said that Athena would come to seek refuge with you.
I stayed to protect you.
Athena may very well come to assassinate you."
Taking refuge in Lorne was an impossible thing for Athena.
But the eldest lady had countless reasons to kill Lorne.
As a victim, Athena also had the qualifications.
But in front of Natalie, Lorne would definitely not say that he deserved to die.
He cried out about injustice and humiliation, but the Holy Knight Captain was not moved at all.
"Why did Athena come to kill you?
Your Excellency really has no clue.
Have you forgotten what you did on the Heretic Island?"
Lorne understood a little bit.
It turned out that Natalie suspected that he was in love with him.
Fortunately, you can't talk about this kind of thing without evidence.
Unless the church can prove that the child in Athena's belly is his, even the church can't do anything to him, a powerful lord in the north.
Natalie also felt this deeply.
When she was in the imperial capital, she found that Lorne's soldiers were very good.
After arriving at Baron Fast's territory, he saw the military camps and orderly patrolling soldiers along the way.
The paladin captain with military experience had to affirm Lorne's strength.
Although the title is still that of a baron, the military strength of the Fast family has reached the strength of a count.
Even compared with the Harrison family, the old military Earl family, apart from having little background, they are no longer inferior to the Harrison family on the surface.
To investigate such a character, Natalie would naturally need some help.
For example, Sophia is still here, or Fanny arrived several steps ahead of her
