Chapter 1657 Succession
After the meeting, Nancy headed back to the palace. She could feel herself marinating in resentment when she
thought about what happened earlier and hurled her glass on the ground furiously. Monisha, who seemed to have
gotten used to that, instructed the servants to clean up the glass shards at once.
Meanwhile, she stepped forward and started massaging Nancy’s shoulders.
“Your Majesty, there’s no need for you to be so angry. This could be an opportunity instead. His Majesty is still
young, impulsive and conceited. Therefore, he must be quite eager to achieve something. Since that’s the case,
you should just let him do whatever he wants. If he fails, that would give you a perfect excuse to take back the
reins. Don’t you think?”
Initially, Nancy wasn’t intending to hand the power over to Aaron. After all, she had been in charge for so long, and
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtDylan’s passing was a perfect opportunity for her to take over his power. However, she did not expect that
someone would suggest that she hand over the reins to Aaron after just a few days. that would defeat the purpose
of her murdering her own son.
However, Monisha had a point too. With that, Nancy decided to hand some tasks to Aaron and see what he was
able to achieve.
While Celeste was still staying at her original wing in the palace, Aaron would have to move from Paelsford Manor
to the grand hall where Dylan stayed previously as he had succeeded the throne.
However, Dylan’s room had to be renovated before Aaron could move in. Hence, Aaron would continue to stay at
Paelsford Manor during the renovation.
After he returned to Paelsford Manor, he lit a cigarette and stood by the window. He recalled the day when he knew
that he had been deceived by Nancy. He was so furious that he almost wanted to expose her true colors on the
spot.
However, Dylan kept shaking his head at him. Aaron understood that his father wanted him to stay calm and lie low.
That was the reason why he had been tolerating Nancy all those while.
Now, since someone was offering him a golden ticket, he wanted to take it.
Even if it was just an insignificant responsibility, he was determined to perform well. The boy was set on building his
influence and avenging his father.
Soon, Aaron’s succession to the throne was reported all over the news and the entire country knew that Prince
Aaron would become the new king of Turlen. The citizens were excited to have a new king and were looking
forward to him leading the country to prosperity and giving all of them better lives.
Alicia, who was in school, had also seen the news of Aaron’s succession. She was happy and sad for him at the
same time as he had only become king due to his father’s passing. She knew that if Aaron had a choice, he would
rather have his father by his side and remain a prince forever.

However, it was still an event that was worth celebrating. After school ended that day, Alicia took out her phone and
rang Aaron.
Aaron stared at the caller ID while the phone rang. After a moment of contemplation, he put out his cigarette and
answered.
“Congratulations, Aaron!” Alicia’s chirpy voice sounded from the other end of the line. “Thanks,” Aaron briefly
acknowledged it with a slight smile on his face.
“Do you want to come over to the apartment later? We should celebrate,” Alicia asked excitedly.
Aaron thought about it for a few seconds before agreeing. After hanging up, he opened an unread message on his
phone. When he saw the message, his expression darkened.
Meanwhile, Alicia headed to the grocery store immediately after speaking to Aaron. She had just finished preparing
the final dish when Aaron arrived later that evening.
