Noble Husband At the Door (Antonio) novel Chapter 4828

What was a deep-water bomb? That was the best proof.

Pei Gu's age was at least eighty to a hundred years old, and this could be seen from his cultivation.

As for Pei Mu, he was only about 16 years old.

With such an age gap, it was enough for Pei Gu to be Pei Mu's grandfather. However, the two of them were brothers.

How could the couple not be hesitant, frightened, and surprised?

"Brother?" Yvonne frowned. "That's impossible, isn't it? The age gap between them..."

The black shadow chuckled. "That's the truth."

Yvonne still wanted to say something, but Samuel stopped her.

Samuel chuckled. "He should be telling the truth. Only in this way can everything be explained. As for the question we mentioned before, it doesn't seem like something that is done by Pei Gu."

With Samuel reminding her, Yvonne seemed to understand.

After thinking about it carefully, it seemed that some things did make sense.

"Actually, this is the scandal of the old Patriarch."

"Before the patriarch ascended the throne, he was still in charge of all the affairs of the Pei family. At that time, the Pei family was in the early stage of development and had a good momentum. Because the patriarch was young, he led the army to fight outside all year round, while the patriarch dealt with internal and external affairs."

"However, there are a lot of things to do during the development period. The old patriarch is working hard day and night."

"One day, after dealing with the official documents, he drank some wine and happened to meet a female slave..."

"After this happened, it was too late for the old patriarch to regret it. After all, he was old enough to do such a thing. It was inevitable that people would sigh with emotion and outsiders would gossip about him."

"The patriarch didn't want to ruin the reputation of the Pei family, nor did he want this matter to ruin the development of the family. Therefore, he ordered me to secretly send the female slave out of the mansion, give her a sum of money, and arrange a marriage for her."

Hearing this, Samuel basically understood.

In fact, Pei Mu's father was not his biological father. To be exact, he was just a successor.

"Of course, this can also save his life. It's better than killing him, isn't it? After all, he is the son of the old patriarch."

They understood. No wonder when Samuel and his wife made a comeback, they always felt that every analysis seemed to be able to explain the whole story clearly, but it was always not good at the critical link.

It turned out that from the beginning to the end, they had been focusing on Pei Gu. They had never thought that the old patriarch would have a son at such an old age.

This guess was indeed too bold and too far-fetched.

"I'm the only one who knows about this since the death of the old patriarch. It has nothing to do with anyone else." After the black shadow finished speaking, he looked at Samuel and said, "I also hope that you and your wife can keep your mouths shut after knowing this secret."

"Of course, if you're on Pei Mu's side, you can kill me at any time. I should have accompanied the old patriarch with my life a long time ago."

"This is your family matter, and I have no right to deal with you. However, do you really intend to hide it from Pei Mu for the rest of your life? He has been targeted by you because of his identity, yet he didn't benefit from it at all. Is this fair to him?" Samuel asked.

"I know I've let him down, but I have no other choice. For the sake of the old patriarch's reputation, I can only..."

At this time, Yvonne stood up and asked, "Can I say something?"
