"It's funny you say that I cannot even prove it to be true? Dear cousin, do you have the receipts from the merchants that proclaim the jewelry as yours?" Valerie raised a brow. "I'm sure that you have stolen that for your bastard child."
"Bastard?" A murmur came from the carriage driver.
Valerie smiled brightly and nodded. "Yes, a baby conceived and will soon be born out of wedlock."
The carriage driver looked at Sophie in surprise because he thought that she was a pure maiden, virgin and untouched. She didn't look like the type to have a baby and have premarital sex which was seen as ill by the church and its people.
