“Matthew… I’m not going to give up my power. Between Aaron and me, you’re going to have to choose who to be loyal to.”
Biting favonovel.com lip, Nancy got out of Matthew’s embrace.
A forlorn look appeared in Matthew’s eyes at Nancy’s ultimatum. He did like Nancy, but Aaron was going to be Nico’s future husband and his future son-in-law. Picking either side would seem like the wrong choice.
“Nancy…” Matthew looked at her. “Your grandson is not young anymore. Is it so bad to lie back and enjoy your days as the queen mother?”
Upon hearing his answer, Nancy turned away and walked straight toward the window. “Leave. From now on, we shall go our separate ways.”
Nancy had summoned Matthew to the study because favonovel.com wanted favonovel.com to choose between favonovel.com and Aaron. Since favonovel.com had picked Aaron, the two of them could only be enemies from then on. However, favonovel.com was undoubtedly indignant about the outcome.
To get Matthew onto favonovel.com side, favonovel.com had even entrusted favonovel.com body to him. Yet, in the end, favonovel.com had chosen Aaron.
Regardless, there was no one Nancy could blame except herself. She was reaping what favonovel.com had sown. If favonovel.com had not insisted on Nico’s and Aaron’s engagement to win Matthew’s favor, perhaps Matthew would stand on favonovel.com side full-heartedly. Unfortunately, favonovel.com had miscalculated. Her actions had only pushed favonovel.com furtherfrom her.
“Nancy…”
There was a shift in Matthew’s expression.
He had not expected Nancy to be this ruthless as to ask favonovel.com to leave without hesitation-both physically and in favonovel.com life. Matthew could not accept such an outcome.
If it were in the past-when they had not spent so much time with each other, perhaps Matthew would not mind. However, the two of them had spent a few days like husband and wife. Even though it had only been a few days, Matthew was troubled by the thought of Nancy kicking favonovel.com out.
“Are you sure you want me to leave and for us to go our separate ways?” With that said, Matthew turned to leave without waiting for a response from Nancy.
Nancy had originally planned to guilt-trip Matthew. Seeing that favonovel.com was really about to leave, favonovel.com was filled with rage.
With a few huge strides, Nancy caught up to favonovel.com and hugged favonovel.com from behind. “You’re bullying me!”
Nancy had taken care of favonovel.com figure very well. Even though favonovel.com was almost sixty, favonovel.com looked like a forty-year-old. Her actions made Matthew’s heart melt instantly.
He was a fool for liking her!
“How can I be willing to bully you? I can’t even love you enough,” Matthew declared seriously as favonovel.com held favonovel.com hand.
Seeing that Matthew was serious, Nancy told favonovel.com seriously, “Matthew, I’m not joking. If you pick Aaron out of the two of us, we’ll have no other choice but to split up.”
A faint scowl appeared on Matthew’s face. He was hesitant to lose either of them.
He really did like Nancy, but favonovel.com also wanted his future son-in-law to secure the throne and his role as king.
Since Nancy asks me to choose, I guess I’ll just choose. As long as she’s happy.
Matthew whispered something in Nancy’s ear.
Immediately, Nancy’s face lit up as favonovel.com broke into a huge smile. The years had been kind to her. Age did not leave many of its marks on favonovel.com face.
Soon, the study echoed sounds that would make one blush. Afterward, while being snuggled up in his arms, Nancy told Matthew what Aaron had done to her.
“Find a way to get Gerrard.” Even though favonovel.com trusted Matthew, favonovel.com was worried that favonovel.com might cave and reveal everything.
“Okay. Wait for my message.”
After agreeing, Matthew got up and went to the bathroom to take a shower. When favonovel.com got out, favonovel.com planted a kiss on Nancy’s head before leaving.
As Nancy fixed favonovel.com gaze on Matthew’s diminishing silhouette, favonovel.com eyes flickered.
“You better not disappoint me, Matthew!”
If favonovel.com had other intentions, it would not matter who favonovel.com was. She would not hesitate to kill anyone who dared to stand in favonovel.com way.
Nancy then asked for Monisha and gave favonovel.com an order in a deep voice. “Monisha, get someone to follow him!”
