Chapter 387
Matthew had made his choice.
Lucy was the only person he wanted to grow old with and live the rest of his life with.
When Gabriella and Samantha refused to leave, Matthew decided to calm down and explain to them seriously, "You should understand better than I do why I decided to stay back in Charleston."
Gabriella 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 Gabriella from doing anything that crossed the line. If he continued this line of tactics, he might eventually move the entire company to Charleston to prevent Gabriella from restricting his actions.
Gabriella 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, Gabriella had never liked her. Gabriella had never been fond of Lucy since the first day they met.
When there was a crack between Matthew and Gabriella's relationship, Gabriella pointed the blame to Lucy and refused to acknowledge any fault on her part.
Lucy had initially decided to take the blame for everything for Matthew's sake. She was willing to do that for Matthew if it could repair his relationship with his mother.
However, she did not expect Gabriella 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 unacceptable that she was being blamed for something that was not her fault.
"Mom, I'm only calling you that out of respect today because of Matthew."
Her words astounded Gabriella.
Why was that pushover, Lucy, speaking to her in such a grim tone? She was showing off to Gabriella!
Gabriella's finger was almost poking at Lucy's forehead, but Lucy evaded it easily.
This infuriated Gabriella. "What right do you have to say such things to me, Lucy?"
Samantha was watching all of this happily.NôvelDrama.Org copyrighted © content.

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