What Fanny said makes sense.
Natalie will definitely come over when Athena gives birth.
If something unexpected happens then, it’s hard to say whether the Holy Knight Commander will regret it or not.
But this actually didn't have much impact on Lorne, because the beast didn't have any particularly deep feelings for the unborn child.
If Athena hadn't been pregnant with his own child, he would have kicked the pregnant woman out of the house.
"I will handle Athena's matter, let's continue talking about your aunt.
Our Lord Pope must not only arrange it here with me, but also in the imperial capital, have you heard any news?"
Now that Lorne has clearly cut off the topic of Athena, Fanny, who has been trained by the beast for a long time, naturally no longer encourages the man to drive Athena away.
As for things in the Imperial Capital, after thinking about it, she said emphatically: "The Imperial Capital is still the same, there shouldn't be any big moves this year.
But I heard a piece of news from my family.
This matter is also related to you.
It seems to be your gunpowder thing.
My aunt seems to have told the Stuart family about this thing, and they are now looking for messy materials like you. " Keira actually told the Stuart family about the gunpowder, which surprised Lorne.
Thinking carefully about why His Majesty the Pope would hand over such a sharp weapon to others, suddenly, a possibility flashed in the man's mind.
After getting dressed immediately, the guy immediately came to Athena's room downstairs.
As the saying goes, a fallen phoenix is not as good as a chicken.
With Miss Stuart's current status, the place where she lives will naturally not be the best in Lorne.
But no matter how bad it is, it's still better than the eldest lady who used to live in a small shabby house with Mary's family.
At least Lorne's bed was made of high-end goods purchased from the Stuart family.
Athena, who had not been so comfortable for a long time and was pregnant, had the same habit of staying in bed as Celine.
When Lorne broke in, Athena was startled before she even got up from the bed.
She remembered how shameless this man was when she first moved in and even wanted to climb into her bed.
If she hadn't resisted desperately and even put up a posture of dying together, she probably wouldn't have been able to escape the vicious hands of the beast even if she was pregnant.
Now seeing Lorne barging into her room again, Athena subconsciously thought that the beast was preparing to use force on her.
Taking out the dagger borrowed from Natalie, the girl pretended to defend her chastity to the death.
But Baron Fast, who had just done morning exercise from Fanny, didn't care about the eldest lady's actions at all, and opened the door casually.
With Athena's pale face, this guy snatched it away The woman's dagger.
"Where did you get this weapon?"
Lorne remembered clearly that when he forcibly kissed the girl that day, Miss Stuart did not have such a destructive weapon.
After looking carefully and discovering the church's mark on it, Lorne understood the origin of the weapon without the girl's answer.
After confiscating such a dangerous thing, Lorne decided to find a few strong women to take good care of Athena.
But now, he wasn't here to do the nasty things Athena imagined.
"Next time, if I find you secretly hiding such a weapon again, it won't be as simple as taking it away."
Ever since Natalie left, the beast has been so simple and rude to Miss Stuart.
If it hadn't been for the woman's pregnant belly, he wouldn't have given up because of Athena's resistance.
Everyone is on his territory, so Baron Fast is not afraid of any deadly tricks Athena will play.
Moreover, Athena is no longer as chaste as before.
After taking away her weapon, the girl wrapped in quilt is still arrogant.
Lorne believed that as long as he took off the woman's quilt at this time, he would probably be able to return to his old place half-heartedly.
But looking at that bulging belly, Miss Stuart can do a lot of tricks no matter how hard she tries.
Thinking that the woman might have a chance to play after she gave birth, Lorne did not stay on Athena's bed but found a chair to sit on the side.
"Okay, don't be secretive, I have something important to ask you."
Seeing Lorne sitting neatly across from her, Athena put down the quilt after confirming that there was no danger.
But she still kept a distance from the man.
It could be seen that the eldest lady was already a little afraid of Lorne.

Even if she had thought about forcing herself to fight for the benefits she deserved for her children, at the critical moment, the woman found that it was too difficult.
Especially after the man's tongue stuck into her mouth that day, she almost couldn't help but bite off the disgusting thing with her teeth.
Even afterwards, Athena had no appetite for meat for several days.
That is, after that day, Lorne left a shadow in Athena's heart.
She always kept a distance from Lorne when the two were alone.
Fortunately, Lorne didn't care about these things.
After the woman calmed down, he continued: "Is your father, or your Stuart family planning to rebel?"
The question was quite straightforward.
After learning that Keira gave the gunpowder to the Duke of the Sea, all Lorne could guess was that the Pope used the throne to promise the Duke of the Sea to help her in the uprising.
Of course, in actual circumstances, the methods used by His Majesty the Pope were far more sophisticated than Lorne imagined.
Moreover, the entire Stuart family had no intention of rebelling.
At least when Athena thought about it, Lorne's sudden question was simply a fantasy.
As the richest family in the empire, why would the Stuart family go to such trouble to rebel in this era when gold coins can determine status?
But since Lorne suddenly mentioned it, something must have happened.
And she, to put it nicely, was a guest of Baron Fast, but she was actually kept under house arrest in the castle by a beast.
Asina had no way to inquire about everything that happened outside.
Thinking about what happened to make Lorne have such a guess, Athena's delay in answering made Lorne think that the eldest lady did not know what rebellion was.
So he explained, which made the eldest lady roll her eyes.
"Rebellion means that your Stuart family has the idea of ruling the empire instead of the royal family."
"I know what rebellion is, but why should our Stuart family take the risk to replace the royal family?
Is it for wealth or honor?
But do our Stuart family lack these things?"
Several points were made, but Lorne held the opposite view to Athena.
Because there is no end to ambition, just like him, when he first crossed over, food, clothing, safety and security were the desires of an animal
