My Husband, Warm The Bed novel Chapter 911

Nathaniel Cooper looked straight into Griffin Cooper's fierce eyes and said indifferently, "Because my father never taught me such basic manners."

Failing to educate a child would be the fault of a parent. Nathaniel's words made Griffin's face pale in fury. He was rendered speechless out of anger for a moment, before he regained his composure and said, "Your father did not guide you because he was busy. So did your mother not teach you anything as well?"

Hearing this heartless man who had long neglected his mother mention her, Nathaniel found it extremely ironic. He smirked as he spoke, "My mother had been preoccupied with guarding her status as the first lady, giving her no time to teach me."

"Nathaniel, you..." Griffin was so angry that he could not form the words. He had never thought that his son, who was always so quiet and reserved, be so sharp-tongued now! Those were such vicious words!

"What's wrong?" Nathaniel chuckled and said blandly, "You always kept your lover by your side so openly, and could not care less about the public's opinion. But yet you do not allow me to mention it?" "You, you... Nathaniel, you give me no choice but to beat you up today!" Griffin was so angry that he stomped his feet and launched a slap at Nathaniel.

However, since Nathaniel was younger and more agile, he could easily dodge Griffin's slap. He smiled and said, "Beat me up? Do you really think that nobody knows about your lover?"

Griffin pointed at Nathaniel, and his fingers were trembling with anger. "You, you, you..."

The complex issues of Hannah Elliot being his lover, had long been a knot in Griffin's heart.

It was actually a show of his dignity as a man. He did not really have to marry this woman. However, he wanted to have her as his lover to prove his personal strength and power.

In the past, he had never been powerful enough, so he had to marry the woman whom his elders had arranged for him, as this woman was useful in boosting his status and influence. He could not marry his lover whom he fancied, and who had even undergone an abortion for him at a young age.

No man was willing to be suppressed by others, nor were they willing to admit their own weaknesses. So he made a promise to Hannah that he would give her an official identity as his wife when he finally grew powerful.

However, a few decades had passed, the once young and beautiful Hannah was already a middle-aged woman now, and she was still keeping his company as a housekeeper.

Nathaniel's sentence triggered Griffin's weakness. It would be odd for an fiesty man like Griffin to not be angry at such provocative words.

He looked straight at Nathaniel, and his eyes were so cold as if he was looking at his enemy instead of his own son.

Nathaniel also looked at him, neither angry nor upset, he didn't even make a sound.

After staring at each other coldly for a long time, Griffin forcibly suppressed his anger. He was a politician, an ambitious one. He knew very well that sometimes it would be better to retreat first, in order to advance.

Griffin added, "Your mother knew clearly that I love another woman, and that I never truly loved your mother. She still chose to marry me, because she was very clear that the marriage between us is built on the basis of politics, only for the interests of our two families."

Griffin said this as if he was a victim because he had sacrificed his own happiness for the interests of the two families.

Such an 'inspiring' speech made Nathaniel laugh dryly. "You didn't love her yet you married her, and you never cared or asked about her. In order to secure the position as the President, it seems that there's nothing that you won't do."

In Nathaniel's eyes, even if it was a political marriage, even if Griffin had married a girl he didn't love, but from the moment he married her, she was his wife, and he was her husband. Whether he loved her or not, as a husband, he should support his wife and protect her unendingly.

But he didn't, he went ahead with the arranged marriage with the maiden from the Collins family. However, in secret, he continued to be with his lover, Hannah. He had hurt both women at the same time.

"There's nothing that I won't do?" Griffin seemed to have heard a huge joke and laughed exaggeratedly. "Nathaniel, aren't you the same?"
