Cesar's cheeks flushed when he saw this. He had not actually given up on Meredith, but was just angry for the moment and couldn't bring himself to go back and continue to please Meredith.
But Meredith didn't give him any time to react. In a few days, she chose Mingkun, the richest man in the empire, as his protector. When Cesar got the news, he was stunned. After he came to his senses, he kept gritting his teeth in annoyance and got drunk that night. Later, Violet persuaded him, "It's just protection, not marriage. Meredith made such a hasty decision, maybe just to piss you off."
Cesar thought about it and realized that was right. Although Mary was hesitant between him and Pei Shaocheng, she definitely had feelings for him. There was no reason for her to turn around and choose someone else.
Thinking of this, he quickly cheered up and planned to pursue Meredith again. But before he could act, Pei Shaocheng suddenly sent this message, catching him off guard.
"That's impossible. Merry has explained that it was his mother's relic..."
"What's impossible?" Vilett interrupted him unhappily, "The old guy came out to explain it himself. You've been praising Meredith to the skies, and I thought he was really that good! You treat him like a treasure, a liar? I was wondering why Pei Shaocheng was so happy to back out and choose Jiang Yanlan. He saw everything, so why didn't he try to persuade you? Now you've been scolded as well!"
Violet is very realistic. Before, Meredith was a natural mermaid, and marrying him would be good for Cesar, so he naturally encouraged Cesar to pursue him. But now his reputation has become like this, and even his identity as a natural mermaid cannot save it, so it is not surprising that Violet would turn against him.
"No, mother and father, the matter has not been confirmed yet. Merry is definitely innocent. Don't say that about him!" Cesar was anxious.
"With all the evidence, how can we be sure?"
"It must be Pei Shaocheng who is behind Elvis's incident. I'll go find him..." Cesar said as he stood up and walked out the door eagerly.
"That's enough, Cesar, stop it!" Seeing that he was stubborn, Violet shouted at him.
Thesalton stopped walking, and before he could say anything, he heard Vilet continue, "The matter of Meredith ends here! If you still regard me as your mother or father, then stay in the palace honestly. When the storm is over, I will find a way to help you find a natural mermaid with a clean background to restore public support."
There are no natural mermaids in the wild, but you can always find artificially bred ones.
"Mother and father--" Cesar gritted his teeth and looked at him in disbelief.
Vilett did not give in at all, "Cesar, I just want to ask you one question, do you still want to be the emperor?"
Cesar was shocked, "I..."
He thought that without Meredith's company, he would rather not have the throne.
"Cesar, mother and father have planned so much for you, and they also pushed your brother away with their own hands. Now that you say you don't want to fight, then what should I do?" Violet's expression softened. "Pullman is old. When he dies, there will be no place for us mother and son in this huge palace."
Cesar was a little panicked. "Father won't ignore us. If anything happens, he will definitely make arrangements for us..."
"Cesar!" Violet gritted her teeth, feeling very disappointed. "I have taught you this since you were little! I have been the empress of the empire for most of my life, I cannot afford to lose face! Also, do you think Meredith will still be interested in you if you lose your status and position?"
