Her words seemed reasonable, and Flavian lifted the cup of tea on the table, took a sip, and a smile appeared on his lips.
"Evie, even if you agree, I'm afraid your parents wouldn't approve of this marriage, considering that Matthew is already married."
"I used to believe that Matthew was 'dead,' little did I know he was still alive. That period was the darkest moment of my life. Since then, I made a vow that if Matthew were alive, I would marry him. I believe that perhaps my prayers reached the heavens. So, I want to marry him, and no one can stop me."
Flavian shook his head. "Ah, I can't understand the thoughts of you young people. Matthew already has a wife and child, yet you are willing to be with him. Nevertheless, I am moved by this affection."
"It's a different era now. Who cares about such things?" Eviette shook her head. "It's just two children, and I will treat them as my own. The only thing we need to do now is to get Veronica away from Matthew."
"Although Veronica came from the countryside, I heard that when they got married, she used the unborn child as a 'threat' to extort a significant amount of money from Matthew. It's probably impossible to make her voluntarily leave him by offering money as a 'bribe',"
Flavian tactfully probed. To separate Veronica and Matthew, Flavian had to smear her reputation.
Only by doing so could he convince Eviette and find a way for her to be with Matthew.
Flavian believed that in this world, only the princess of The Robins in Mythpoint was worthy of his son.
"Uncle, don't worry, leave the rest to me."
Eviette had the upper hand and added, "You can return to Mythpoint now. Just remember not to tell my parents that I'm in Bloomstead."
"Hahaha, deal." Flavian laughed heartily. "There are still some projects to handle in Mythpoint, and it's good for me to go back first.
He set down the cup and stood up. "Evie, you carry on with your tasks. I'll go rest."
"Alright, Uncle. Take care."
Eviette was respectful and courteous as if all the manners were ingrained in her bones.
After leaving Eviette's suite, Flavian went down one floor and went to his suite.
Upon opening the door, he saw a man in a white suit sitting on the couch, reading a book. The man wore frameless glasses and had an air of refinement.
"How did it go?"
Seeing Flavian return, the man teased, "I can tell by your expression that my 'resurrected' brother must not want to see you."
"He's stubborn. It will probably take some time before he accepts me." Flavian walked to the floor-to-ceiling window, gazing at the view outside. He sighed deeply. "Fortunately, Princess Robins genuinely likes Matthew. Otherwise, how could us Kingses have a chance to form an alliance with The Robins of Mythpoint?"
"As far as I know, my brother likes that woman named Veronica," the refined man in the white suit commented.
"Melvin, if only your brother could be as sensible as you," Flavian said, feeling a headache coming on.
Melvin was his and Lindsey Winson's son. Because he deeply loved Lindsey, he allowed Melvin to take his mother's surname, becoming Melvin Winson.
Since Melvin was his illegitimate child and was born secretly a few years after his marriage to Matthew's mother, Jessica Espin, he and Matthew were not much apart in age.
"Father, don't worry, I will assist Princess Robins in winning over my elder brother," Melvin willingly sacrificed his half-brother to fulfill the marriage between The Robins and The Kings.
So, it didn't matter if it was just one Veronica or even ten Veronicas, they were all inconsequential.
After saying that, Melvin immediately picked up his phone and composed a message. 'Delete all information linking me and my father right away.'
