His Versatile Gorgeous Wife novel Chapter 1710

Outside the palace, Aaron's lips curled into a smirk when he heard the report by the palace servant.

He had done it on purpose. He had intentionally made her mad so he could see the lengths she was willing to go to.

“Aaron, getting on her nerves like that...” Bernd glanced over at Aaron, concerned. Nancy was no goody-two-shoes. No one could predict what tricks would pull if she was enraged.

Aaron narrowed his eyes and shook his head.

“I got on her nerves on purpose. I want to see what her next move will be.”

“Let them help you with your tasks.

Perhaps in the future—"
