Putting on airs as an elder, he reprimanded, “How can you say that about your father and grandmother. Christina? Even if they did something wrong, they’re still your elders, and you shouldn’t hold a grudge against them. Everything they did, they did it for your own good. In the future, the Gibson family will rest in your hand. As a member of the family, don’t you think you should contribute as well?”

Christina mocked, “You’re the head of the Gibson family right now. If your words are true, will you willingly hand your position over to me? I know you won’t. After all, you already answered that question explicitly in the past.”

Christina’s bluntness embarrassed Nigel further.

Nigel was willing to lower himself and seek Christina for help in order to protect his hard-earned throne. glory, and wealth for the rest of his life. He wanted to prove to everyone that he wasn’t any worse than Timothy.
