A Beauty with Multiple Masks novel Chapter 1630

Chapter 1630 The Matter Of Marriage

Celeste naturally wanted him to take the queen mother’s side. As evil as she is to force upon me a man in love with another woman, I am sure that the queen mother is unhappy about the other woman, or she would not have Dylan marry me by drugging him to sleep with me.

She did not dare let Aaron take Dylan’s side as the latter might bring the woman back to the country and legitimize her as his wife if he obtained power. What if he has another son with her?

By then, her son would be cast aside. Being the prince did not guarantee entitlement to the throne; she felt the need to make her son’s plans for him.

“Though your father has been good to you over the years, Aaron,” Celeste said in a low voice with her eyes fixed on him, “I hope you will take your grandmother’s side.”

Aaron was taken aback by that. He thought that his mother, being deeply in love with his father, would have him take his father’s side. To his astonishment, she would rather have him side with his grandmother.

Why is that?

He expressed that doubt out loud.

Celeste gazed at him uncertainly, unable to find the right words to tell him that his father had a daughter with another woman.

“Because your grandmother has been in power for over twenty years. Your father knows nothing, and you’ll suffer if you choose to take his side.”

Aaron chuckled as he did not foresee that reply. However, he nodded all the same.

“Then I’ll do as you say.”
