I'm A Quadrillionaire novel Chapter 1549

Chapter 1549

Marlee Jung was patiently responding to her daughter's curiosity, but she was actually extremely nervous.

The merchant ship was about to reach the entrance of the wormhole to the Central Sacred Continent.

This stretch of travel was the most dangerous because all merchant ships going to the Central Sacred Continent from this direction would pass this area and go to the Central Sacred Continent via the wormhole.

Therefore, a lot of space pirates who specialized in robbing merchant ships who lie in wait here.

It would be fine if they ran into normal space pirates.

They only needed to pay a toll and they would be allowed to pass without any harm.

If they encountered wanted criminals who were greedy, cruel, and responsible for major crimes, not only would the goods of this ship be taken away, but even the lives of the mother, daughter, and the whole ship would not be spared.

This was what worried Marlee the most.

As long as they passed this stretch and reached the entrance of the wormhole safely, their trip would be considered a success.

It could also bring huge benefits to her family and allow the family to continue to prosper.

The merchants in the Star Kingdom who traveled ships were most afraid of this area near the wormholes.

If they were not careful, they and their ship would be destroyed.

This was equivalent to risking their lives in the pursuit of money.

However, space pirates would not just rob anyone.

They would not dare touch the merchant ships of some big trading houses.

If they did, the big business would send powerhouses to hunt them down endlessly.

To put it bluntly, these space pirates would only bully the weak but feared the strong.

They would only target minor forces.

If merchant ships from small families like Marlee’s were discovered by the space pirates, they would be doomed.

If they were lucky, they would just spend some money to avoid disasters.

If they were unlucky, they would end up with nothing.

Marlee kept praying nervously in her heart to not run into any space pirates.

After the shipment was delivered safely, the Jung family would be able to survive for a while longer.

When she returned to the family again, her stomach was huge.

Marlee returned to the family pregnant, but no man was accompanying her.

No matter how much the family elders asked, she never said who the father of the child in her stomach was.

Just like that, Marlee gave birth to her current daughter in her family and named her Peggy Jung.

Decades ago, because of Marlee’s departure, the Jung family was secretly suppressed by some forces around them.

The Jung family’s life also gradually worsened.

Now that Marlee came back pregnant, it annoyed the surrounding forces who had proposed marriage to the Jung family.

At first, they just watched from the dark

After all, would the man Marlee fancied be subpar?

Not to mention, since she was pregnant with this man’s child, what would happen if she only came back early so that she could plan a grand wedding?

Who could guarantee that Marlee’s man was inferior to them?

What if the man Marlee met was a direct descendant of a major force power in Star Kingdom?
