Matthew had made his choice.


    Lucy was the only person he wanted to grow old with and live the rest of his life with.All content is ? N0velDrama.Org.


    When Gabrie and Samantha refused to leave, Matthew decided to calm down and exin to them seriously, "You should understand better than I do why I decided to stay back in Charleston."


    Gabrie knew the reason very well. Matthew had moved part of Leon Corporation''s headquarters over to Charleston in order to avoid her.


    It was his demonstration to her and to stop Gabrie from doing anything that crossed the line. If he continued this line of tactics, he might eventually move the entirepany to Charleston to prevent Gabrie from restricting his actions.


    Gabrie knew that her son refused to listen to anything she had to say, so she directed her attack to Lucy.


    "How could you allow something like this to happen? Matthew is my son, but he''s siding with you instead."


    Since Lucy''s appearance, Gabrie had never liked her. Gabrie had never been fond of Lucy since the first day they met.


    When there was a crack between Matthew and Gabrie''s rtionship, Gabrie pointed the me to Lucy and refused to acknowledge any fault on her part.


    Lucy had initially decided to take the me for everything for Matthew''s sake. She was willing to do that for Matthew if it could repair his rtionship with his mother.


    However, she did not expect Gabrie to go from bad to worse.


    Lucy had been exposed to the outside world for many years and she was aware that love was not something that could be forced. It was even more uneptable that she was being med for something that was not her fault.


    "Mom, I''m only calling you that out of respect today because of Matthew."


    Her words astounded Gabrie.


    Why was that pushover, Lucy, speaking to her in such a grim tone? She was showing off to Gabrie!


    Gabrie''s finger was almost poking at Lucy''s forehead, but Lucy evaded it easily.


    This infuriated Gabrie. "What right do you have to say such things to me, Lucy?"


    Samantha was watching all of this happily.


    Lucy was stupid not to learn to go along with what Gabrie wanted. The most important thing was that Gabrie dooked down on this


    had an advantage over Lucy


    woman. This meant that Samantha


    However, the biggest probe


    that Matthew was not on


    was


    Samantha''s side.


    "Matthew and are legitimately married, and this was a decision that we made after much consideration, know there are many things about me that you''re unhappy with, and I''m willing to change if you tell me where I went wrong.


    "But now, all I see is you being unreasonable. You brought a woman here to make my husband spend time alone with her. What do you mean by that?"


    Gabrie had no idea how to reply to Lucy''s questioning while Samantha felt like she had just been dealt with an invisible p. Her cheek burned from Lucy''s words.


    “Miss Samantha Shelby, aren''t you ashamed of what you''re doing? You''re in the office alone with a


    married man because you want to


    get acquainted with him. You''re doing everything you can to get close to him, but he has ignored you no matter what you tried. Don''t you have any pride?


    "You know best about what you''re doing. What''s the point of you even continuing to do something like this? Matthew has rejected you multiple times, and I hope you can stop harassing my husband.”
