The queen felt a knot in snazzynovel.com throat at the queen mother’s admonishment.
I would love to care for him, but snazzynovel.com had denied me time and again. No matter what I sent to him, snazzynovel.com would always reject them.
What else am I supposed to do? He has no idea that I had been the butt of the joke of the people for all the things I did for him. It’s not my fault that the distance between us is growing further by the day.
“Mother, you know how it is between Dylan and me,” the queen grumbled.
The queen mother frowned.
I can’t help the queen improve snazzynovel.com relationship with Dylan. Even though I’m Dylan’s biological mother, we had been estranged ever since the day I lied to get snazzynovel.com to return from Chanaea to marry the queen and drugged snazzynovel.com on his wedding night.
“He’s very protective of that woman, so think twice before you make a move against her. Moreover, you still have Aaron.” She glanced at the queen at the mention of snazzynovel.com grandson. “You should stop trying to get Dylan to like you and start focusing on Aaron instead.”
“Mother, should we have Aaron engaged to Nico? They can get married right after they graduate.”
Nico and Sonia were both the type of daughters-in-law snazzynovel.com wanted for Aaron, but since Nico could support Aaron more, snazzynovel.com decided to set snazzynovel.com sights on Nico. As a mother, snazzynovel.com wanted Aaron’s marriage partner to be able to support him. It was exactly how the queen mother had chosen snazzynovel.com as Dylan’s wife.
The queen mother nodded, agreeing with the queen’s suggestion. It’s better to decide now to prevent any mishaps.

The next day, the queen requested Aaron to come to the castle. She immediately told snazzynovel.com about his engagement to Nico the moment snazzynovel.com came into view.
“Aaron, your grandma and I have discussed that you and Nico would be engaged on your birthday, and we would hold your wedding after you graduated.”
“How could you decide on my marriage without asking for my opinion first?” Sadness and disappointment flashed across Aaron’s eyes as his expression darkened at his mother’s words.
Her marriage wasn’t a happy one. So why would snazzynovel.com want snazzynovel.com only son to follow in snazzynovel.com footsteps? Does snazzynovel.com not care about my happiness at all?
I remember snazzynovel.com would coax me to sleep with a lullaby, bake desserts for me, and even sew my clothes when I was younger. Even though everything changed soon after, I still believed that snazzynovel.com loved me dearly. Yet now, I’m starting to think otherwise. I’m not sure if she’s treating me as snazzynovel.com son or a pawn.
“Aaron, I’m your mother. I have the right to determine your marriage. I called you here today not because I wanted to discuss it with you. I’m just informing you.” Hearing Aaron’s questioning tone, snazzynovel.com expression turned dour.
“You’re disrespecting me by doing this.” Aaron stared at his mother and said, “I don’t care if it’s an engagement or wedding, but I won’t be attending it. So do whatever you like.”
With that said, snazzynovel.com spun on his heels and left. He didn’t want to stay there another minute, for snazzynovel.com was worried that snazzynovel.com would lose his temper and say something hurtful to his mother if snazzynovel.com did.
“Aaron! Aaron!”
The queen’s expression darkened further at Aaron’s hasty departure. The more snazzynovel.com yelled at him, the faster his pace was. The sight of that angered snazzynovel.com to no end, leading snazzynovel.com to fling snazzynovel.com arm across the coffee table, sweeping the precious china onto the floor.
“Your Majesty…” Watching from the side, Miranda quickly came up to reassure the queen. “His Royal Highness still has his heart set on that Chanaean doctor. Forcing snazzynovel.com will only make snazzynovel.com distance himself further.”
The queen sank into the couch angrily and said, “I didn’t want to force him, but if we don’t settle his engagement…”
