I Gave Birth To The Richest Man's Heir

After recalling this memory, I took a deep breath and stepped forward to reveal the truth. Just then, Elio had difficulty breathing again.

“Grandma... I can’t breathe...”

Elio’s face turned purple once more, and his breathing became even more rapid than before.

I kept my composure and said, “No. This isn’t an allergic reaction. It’s asthma.”

I quickly realized what was happening and turned to look at the maid.

“Did Elio get near a furry pet earlier?”

The maid appeared guilty.

“I-I didn’t mean to—”

“Just answer me. Yes or no?” I was nearly losing my composure, but I questioned the maid again.

When I saw the maid nod, I was certain. I took out an inhaler from my bag and prepared to administer it to Elio.

Iris suddenly rushed forward to stop me.

“Clara, have you lost your mind? Are you going to give him some random mystery medicine? Are you trying to kill him?”

Laurel was so furious that she was about to lose it. She called for security to have the two of them thrown out.

Meanwhile, I gave Iris a hard shove.

“Shut up, Iris. Our family’s matter is none of your concern. You’re an outsider here.”

I had directly declared my status. I thought she would be shocked and show some restraint. Instead, she let out a giggle.

“Clara, are you so desperate to climb the social ladder that you’ve become completely delusional? ‘Our family’? Who do you think you are? You’re not even fit to lick their boots.”

Simon also pressed his hand to his forehead and wore a bitter smile. He looked at me like I was a joke.

“Clara, a woman like you isn’t even good enough for me. Do you really think a man like Mr. Windsor would want you?

“I think you’ve gone crazy from pining over me for eight years. That’s the only way you’d come up with a fantasy this ridiculous. I suggest you—”

“Get lost!”

I was furious as I gave Iris another hard shove and pointed at her. “If anything happens to my son, I swear I’ll destroy you.”

Laurel had also just ended her phone call. She came over to help.

“Don’t worry, Clara. The ambulance is on its way and so is the family doctor.”

I finally felt more reassured and picked up the inhaler. Once I administered it directly to Elio, I waited nervously for his reaction.

Simon looked at Iris, whom I had just pushed to the floor. He naturally did not hear what Laurel had said. When he saw me giving medication to Elio, he lunged forward and yanked me away.

He then shouted at me, “What are you giving Elio?! Are you trying to poison him so that you can play the hero and use it to blackmail the Windsor family into not working with me?! Is that it?!

“You truly are vicious, Clara. I’m going to teach you a lesson on Mr. Windsor’s behalf today.”

He pulled me up by force. While I was off guard, he raised his hand high to strike my face. I could not dodge in time and instinctively closed my eyes.

The next second, I was abruptly pulled into a warm embrace. A deep voice that carried an authoritative tone said, “Who do you think you are to lay a hand on my wife?”
