Chapter 1726 A Ticking Bomb
Back in the prison, Nancy struggled to come to terms with the state of things. Aaron is getting too bold for his own good. He’s a ticking bomb. I really shouldn’t have helped him accede to the throne. I don’t even know why he is keeping me here.
“What should we do now, Your Majesty?” Monisha asked anxiously.
Nancy narrowed her eyes in determination. I can’t just sit here and resign to fate. She took out her phone and dialed Matthew’s number.
Matthew was walking with Melissa in the garden when his phone rang. His face changed when he saw who the caller was.
“Go ahead and pick it up. I’ll sit over there for a while,” Melissa said kindly when she saw Matthew’s face. Then she walked over to the shade to give him some privacy.
Matthew contemplated if he should pick up, but he eventually did.
“Matthew, I’m in the dungeon now. Aaron is holding me here. Could you get me out?” Nancy cut to the chase in anger.
Matthew was stunned, for he had only suggested to Aaron to deal with Gerrard as soon as possible. He did not expect the king to imprison his grandmother.
“Are you okay? Why did he do that?” Considering how Nancy had grown up being pampered in a sheltered environment, Matthew could not help but worry about her.
Nancy disregarded his concern and said with a frown, “I have no idea. Just get me out of here.”
