His Versatile Gorgeous Wife novel Chapter 1734

A series of heart-rending shrieks were heard coming from an apartment at an unspecified location.

“Hang in there, Your Majesty. They should be returning with the medication in a bit.” Though she had suffered burns of her own, Monisha endured her own physical pain to offer Nancy comfort.

Being the first time Nancy had ever been that aggrieved, her hatred for Aaron had thus reached boiling point. She would not have been made to suffer so much if not for him. What made it worse was that he had actually instructed the hospital to turn away burn victims, and clinics to decline selling medication for the treatment of burns. To her, he was obviously trying to push her to the brink.

Outside, in the living room, Linda looked toward the Duke and shook her head. “We can't purchase any medication for treating burns anywhere.”

The Duke's dour mood was palpable on his face. It is truly unexpected that this king would be so devious as to use such means to force the queen mother to reveal herself.

Nancy's fingers tightened against themselves when she heard his words from where she was inside the room.

“Do you still have my phone?” she asked through gritted teeth.

How did the prison catch fire ? There hasn't been an instance of such a disaster in decades, so how could one have suddenly gone off less than two days into Nancy's incarceration? He had his doubts about how the whole affair came about, with Arron, in particular, being his prime suspect.

Can he really not tolerate Nancy's existence? He was already planning to approach her in a couple of days with the aim of convincing her to relinquish the power she wielded in view of enjoying her own retirement. So what's the rush? At the end of the day, she's still his own grandmother. Isn't there any room at all left in his heart for her?

Melissa felt terrible seeing how her husband had shut himself away inside his study after learning of Nancy's passing,
