Chapter 1628 Insolence
“The crown will eventually be yours, Aaron.” Dylan studied his son for a while before divulging the matter between him and Nancy. “What do you think?” he asked at the end, observing Aaron as he did so. “Will you take my side or your grandmother’s?”
Having assumed that his father had found out that he was taking his grandmother’s side, Aaron was surprised to find out his father telling him instead of the power struggle between him and his grandmother before asking him whose side he took.
I might have remained neutral before, seeing as I would be next in line for the throne regardless of who it is who wins. Now, however…
He returned Dylan’s gaze with a frown. “Do I have to choose between you and Grandma?”
Dylan gazed at his only son and shook his head. “You can remain neutral. It wouldn’t affect our relationship no matter whose side you choose.”
His main reason for contesting power against his mother had been to amend the laws and reconcile with Arielle. Currently, however, he also intended for his only son to inherit the throne.
Dylan did not want to name Arielle his heir because she had her own family and was unwilling to remain in Turlen. The throne shouldn’t be an encumbrance to her. As a girl, she should be loved and spoiled.
Aaron was amused by his father’s proclamation.
“I am your son. Of course, I would take your side.” He gazed at his father, hiding how he truly felt. “Tell me your plans. I will do my best to accommodate you.”
Aaron’s words pleased Dylan. Many things are already halfway done with my boy by my side. However, the plan must not yet be revealed.
