NovelAppChapter 1656 Underestimated Him
She had completely underestimated Aaron. Given that he had not confronted her since the news of him killing his father broke,
Nancy had assumed that the boy had accepted reality and pledged his loyalty to her. She did not expect him to be waiting for her
there. He had even gotten the politicians to be on his side.
When did he becso close to them?
How could | not have realized that?
Her heart sank as thoughts ran through her mind. Have | helped a vicious ingrate?
Aaron shook his head in reply to the queen mother’s question. When Nancy saw that, she thought that Aaron was not after power
and felt slightly guilty for her wild guesses earlier on. She smiled and was about to say something when Aaron spoke first.
“Grandma, I'm not after power, but I'm the king after all, right?”
When he saw the queen mother’s expression darkening, a sense of excitement arose in him. However, he tried to suppress his
feelings and put on a calm front while saying placidly, “As a king, if | don’t possess power and control, how am | going to lead my
country to prosperity and improve my citizens’ lives?”
Taking a pause, he continued, “Grandma, I'm sure you don’t wish to seebecoming a useless king who failed to do anything for
his people, right?” After Aaron finished speaking, he fixed his gaze on Nancy.
Even though his initial plan was to lie low for a period of tbefore pitting himself against Nancy, he had decided to go with the
flow since there was someone lending him a helping hand.
I have underestimated him instead!
Nancy looked at Aaron with a darkened expression and said, “I would like to hand over the reins to you, but you're too young and
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtinexperienced. I'm worried that you wouldn't make good decisions for the country.”
“Your Majesty, even though His Majesty is still young, we will be guiding and supporting him. If there's something that he’s doing
incorrectly, we would let him know at once,” Lawrence replied immediately.
Nancy stared at Lawrence somberly, and it suddenly dawned on her that the man had been siding with Dylan. After Dylan died, he
started leaning toward Aaron. Since when has he started taking sides? Hasn't he always been neutral?
She completely regretted not getting Lawrence to work for her when she had the chance to.
Seeing that everyone was speaking up for Aaron, Nancy looked toward Matthew, hoping that he would speak a few words in her
favor. She was sure that he would understand what she meant.
However, the queen mother was soon disappointed. The moment Matthew caught her eye, he lowered his head at once. When she
saw that, anger welled up in her chest.
“Her Majesty did not say that she wouldn't hand over the power to His Majesty. Her only concern is that the king is still young.
Since all of you are willing to support him, | am sure Her Majesty would be open to handing over the reins to him.”
Just then, a follower of the queen mother spoke. His family had only prospered after he started serving Nancy; as such, he had to
ensure that she continued to hold power and authority. The man knew that he had to cup with a solution quickly under current
circumstances.
He paused and looked toward Nancy before suggesting, “Your Majesty, maybe you could get His Majesty to do something that’s
beneficial to the citizens. You can assess his capabilities through the task, and if he manages to complete it successfully, you can
then hand over the reins to him gradually.”
The rest of Nancy's followers agreed immediately. “That's right. After all, His Majesty had just ascended the throne, and there
would be no going back if he does something that harms the country. It's a good idea to test him with a task first and hand over
the reins to him after he proves himself.”
“Yup! That should be the way to go.”
“Indeed. For the sake of our country, you can’t just give him the power all at once...”
After hearing the comments of her followers, Nancy said with a grim expression, “I will think about it and give my reply tomorrow.”
