My Accidental Husband is a Billionaire novel Chapter 817

Amy immediately nodded. “I am Daddy's daughter.”

“Amy, stop saying that,” Keira said, gently pulling her daughter closer. “Don't call him that.”

“But, Mom, he is Dad!” Amy insisted, her tiny face lighting up with conviction.

Keira sighed, torn between amusement and exasperation. “How could you possibly know that?”

Amy opened her mouth, about to say, “Because you told me…” when a group of people suddenly entered the room.

Keira's attention shifted immediately. The newcomers were unmistakably from Country A, their features bearing subtle differences from those native to Crera. They moved purposefully toward Monbatten, their expressions radiating tension.

Keira frowned and leaned closer to Jenkins. “Who are they?” she whispered.

Jenkins, ever observant, lowered his voice. “They're from the royal family. The one leading the group is Monbatten's older brother. When their father passed, there was a brutal fight for the throne between the two of them. Monbatten came out on top and has kept his brother firmly in check since. His brother's been keeping a low profile for years but recently resurfaced, likely because Monbatten hasn't produced an heir.” Jenkins glanced at the entourage, his tone darkening. “If I had to guess, they're here to force his hand.”

Keira turned her attention back to the drama unfolding in front of her. Monbatten's older brother stopped a few steps away from him, his expression a mixture of arrogance and triumph. “Monbatten,” he said sharply, “did you really think hiding out in Crera would let you avoid this conversation?”

Monbatten's face darkened.

Sean immediately stepped in, positioning himself protectively between the two brothers. His smile was diplomatic, but his tone was firm. “Sir, to what do we owe the pleasure of your visit?”

The older brother gave a faint, insincere smile. “I've come to discuss a matter of national importance with the king. Surely, you won't stand in the way of that?”

Sean's gaze flickered to the entourage of bodyguards behind the prince. “We weren't informed of your arrival,” he said coldly. “How did you even get past security?”

“They're my men,” the prince replied breezily. “They know how to handle situations like this.”

Monbatten's gaze sharpened as he noticed the group of armed guards behind his brother. He stepped forward, his voice low and dangerous. “You brought armed men to my host's residence? Are you here to threaten me?”
