Chapter 527 Civilized Conversation 1
After comforting Annaliese for a few minutes, Lothur took her into the house, feeling a not-so-good feeling at having to reveal everything to Viktoria.
But he went through with it, surprising his wife by arriving home next to Annaliese so early in the morning.
“Lothur?” Viktoria came out of her quarters and went into the living room to welcome her man, dressed in a red sweater.
But seeing Lothur and Annaliese finishing taking off their shoes at the front door, she frowned and looked at the two without understanding what was going on.
That had been the normal time Lothur had been coming home for the past few days. But Annaliese being there was something out of the ordinary.
Besides, since Viktoria’s younger sister had been indisposed lately, she couldn’t help but question. “Anna, what are you doing here at this hour? Has something happened?”
Gulp!
Annaliese looked down and felt her tears trickling down her eyes.
Lothur saw Viktoria step forward to embrace her sister and close his eyes temporarily. He then said. “Uh, Viktoria, Annaliese, and I have something to tell you…”
“And it couldn’t wait until later? By the way, why does Anna look so sad? What kind of thing did you do, Lothur?” Viktoria looked at him as her sister cried silently, being hugged by her.
“Hmm… About that…” He was about to say, but Annaliese stopped him.
“Sister… I made a mistake… Lothur and I, actually… Both of us…” She tried to tell but couldn’t take the pressure and started crying even more.
Viktoria found this strange and looked at Lothur.
“Annaliese is pregnant.” He said at once, shocking his wife immensely.
Upon hearing this, Viktoria’s eyes almost popped out of her face as she turned to look incredulously at her sister.
But she didn’t understand it all at once and had another shock when she heard her husband’s voice once again.
“I am the one who got her pregnant.”
Gulp!
Annaliese stopped crying and looked at her sister, feeling she would attack her after Lothur said such a thing so casually.
“What?” Viktoria turned pale but focused her strength to stand, looking at Lothur while no longer feeling her sister in her arms.
Lothur was not good at revealing the truth about things he was hiding and simply said the basics. “We have been having an affair since you and I had our first time. Actually, Anna and I started having an intimate relationship before you, and I even got to know each other better…
Anyway, it seems I got Annaliese pregnant before I developed the birth control pills I told you about.”
“Lothur…” Viktoria said this between her teeth, pressing them against each other as she clenched her hands. “Lothur!
What did you say you did?”
She jumped at him as she tried to land a punch on her husband’s body.
Viktoria loved this man and was jealous of him, so even Elke, who had been in his life before her, occasionally gave her negative thoughts.
Upon hearing that he had been having an affair with her sister, she couldn’t help but lose control and attack her husband.
“How did you have the nerve? Have you been putting your filthy hands on any more women?” She asked as she attacked him with all her might, reinforcing her fists with her soul power.
But even then, Viktoria was still a bit slower than Lothur, so he dodged almost all of her blows.
Lothur would not let his wife attack him over this issue. As such, he was defending himself appropriately, deflecting and even countering her fists.
But, of course, he would not use much of his strength to hurt her.
“Besides you, only Rebecca had a chance to do that with me.” He said, answering the questions of not only Viktoria but also Annaliese.
“What?” The two exclaimed simultaneously, not expecting that he had been with that poison master.
“You did what, you rascal?” Viktoria felt her blood rise in her eyes, wanting to teach her husband a lesson.
Lothur said. “Dear, don’t be like that. I never lied to you. I just didn’t tell you everything to lessen the burden on your conscience…”
“Damn you!
How dare you? You selfish pig!” She became angrier upon hearing this.
“Lothur, is that true? Did you have sex with that poisonous woman?” Annaliese asked, not liking that at all.
“Yes, the situation from days ago was only resolved because of that… Since then, I’ve been treating her body, so the same thing doesn’t happen again.”
“What? You did that on account of that?”
“You should have let her die!” Viktoria growled, feeling that would be a better outcome for her.
“Don’t talk nonsense. Rebecca is my friend, and I wouldn’t let someone like that die on my watch.” Lothur didn’t like hearing that and decided to take action against his wife to show her who was the boss in the house.
Lothur was very good with his women and gave importance to almost everything they said. But make no mistake. He did not see himself as an equal to them. He could have several women, but they could only have him.
That was his mentality, the mentality of most men in such a polygamous society.
As a polygamous man, he was the head of this household, not his women!
“Viktoria, stop this nonsense immediately!
I saved Rebecca, and she will be part of our family. As for Annaliese, she is also my woman, and we will soon live together.” He said more seriously as he appeared at his wife’s back to immobilize her.
“Lothur! I will not have you bringing women into my house!” She screamed as she felt her arms being immobilized by him, trying to use her bloodline to make him back off.
Lothur felt the ice from Viktoria’s bloodline freezing his arms, which would only serve him as nourishment.

‘That’s it?’ He smiled, considering his resistance was already enough to withstand blows from 3rd stage cultivators.
But Viktoria hadn’t gotten there yet, so his bloodline would naturally have a hard time affecting Lothur’s body!
Viktoria realized this as he squeezed her, slowly knocking her out.
“When you wake up, we will talk about this civilly…” Those were the last words Viktoria heard before she passed out in her husband’s arms.

Annaliese watched all this in shock and asked Lothur as she saw her unconscious sister. “Why? Why did you do this?”
“I should let her destroy the house because of something that can’t be changed?” He asked as he sighed, picking up his wife’s unconscious body and heading toward their room.
“But…”
“Anna, I have never lied to any of you about what kind of man I am… I, at most, omitted some facts about things you already knew I was capable of doing.
That was for your good, so you wouldn’t have to constantly stress over something you already knew.” He said seriously. “As for that, I merely want to talk about it without hurting anyone. So I took control of the situation.”
