The Man in Power After Being Married into Her Family novel Chapter 563

In order to turn the tables, Jake recalled a name that Aaron had mocked Jacob with, Matilda. So, he pretended to be curious and asked, "Dad, what's the issue with this Matilda that you talked about earlier? You guys seem to be very close to her, I'm rather curious..." 5

Aaron threw a sideway glance at Jacob and said with a grin, "Matilda Hall was the most beautiful girl in our batch, and a lot of boys fell in love with her. In fact, if her admirers queued up, it would circle the university twice." 3

Then, Aaron deliberately raised his voice and laughed, "Eventually, Matilda must have been hypnotized or something, because she chose Jacob! Since he was in love with the most beautiful and popular girl in school, he had to avoid walking into people for fear that he would be ambushed and beaten." 2

"What happened later?"

Again, Aaron looked at Jacob in amusement and giggled. "Then, Matilda dumped him and flew to the United States. She hasn’t come back since." 3

Then, he turned to Jacob and asked in a mocking tone, "Oh, Jacob, do you know why Matilda broke up with you?"

Jacob growled, "It’s none of your business."

Aaron laughed at his reaction. "Let me tell you, in truth, Matilda was irritated because of her countless admirers, so she decided to find a fake boyfriend to shun all the annoying buggers. Hence, she chose you, and you were the only one who was kept in the dark. After she used you, she dumped you and went abroad! Hahaha!" 2

Jacob shouted angrily, "Shut up! Matilda and I broke u p because..."

He couldn’t finish his sentence.

His expression changed from outrage to regret, desolation, and sadness. He hung his head low, sighed gently, and waved his hand. "Forget it, let's drop the subject." 3
