Arielle Moore and Vinson Nightshire
Chapter 1567 Something Difficult To Talk About Lawrence frowned at the sight of his usually-graceful wife behaving like a shrew.
ââKelly!ââ he reminded harshly.
Kelly reluctantly stopped talking.
Then, Lawrence turned to Harvey once more. ââIs it something difficult to talk about?ââ
Harvey nodded.
ââCan we talk about it privately?ââ
After pondering for a moment, Harvey nodded again.
He figured there wasnât a need for him to continue hiding his identity now that he was already thinking of marrying Sonia.
It was only by being transparent about his own character and origins that her father might feel safe letting him marry her, anyway.
ââSonia is still unwell. Take good care of her, and donât say anything to aggravate her,ââ Lawrence instructed Kelly before turning to Sonia. ââBe polite when talking to your mother. I have some matters to discuss with him. Iâll be back shortly.ââ
As Lawrence turned and headed for the door, Harvey caressed Soniaâs head, disregarding Kelly in the process. ââDonât worry. Iâll see you again real soon.ââ
Sonia didnât expect him to be this affectionate with her in front of her parents. But truthfully, she liked it, and a blush crept across her cheeks as she nodded and watched Harvey leave with her father.
Rather than sit down at a coffee shop, the two men hopped into Lawrenceâs car before the man himself began driving. This was perhaps the safest place to talk in detail.
ââSo, tell me, who are you? Why did you approach Sonia?ââ
Acting like a completely different person the moment he entered the vehicle, Lawrence shot a forbidding glance at Harvey, who was now in the passenger seat.
The older, the wiser indeed.
Harvey smiled bitterly. He had thought that Lawrence genuinely wanted to ask about his true origin before handing Sonia over to him, and yet it seemed it was not the case.
ââI never approached Sonia deliberately, Mr. Wynter. We met by complete chance,ââ Harvey answered gravely. ââMy name is Harvey Jupiter. Iâm from Chanaea. You can get someone to look into my background if you wish.ââ
Lawrenceâs expression turned gloomy instantly. He had been wondering which tribe Harvey could have been from, only to learn that the latter was Chanaean.
ââYou do know that marrying a foreigner warrants a death sentence here?ââ
Harvey nodded. ââI do.ââ
ââThen why?ââ Lawrence was so exasperated that he didnât know how to continue.
ââTrust me, Mr. Wynter. The laws of Turlen will definitely change. When that happens, marriage to foreigners will be nothing out of the ordinary,ââ Harvey promised.
The look in Lawrenceâs eyes changed as he heard that, and he stared into Harveyâs eyes.
ââWhat do you mean by that?ââ
How would a Chanaean know about Turlenâs future state of affairs?
Recalling Arielleâs current efforts in aiding the king, Harvey responded calmly, ââWhat changes do you think will happen in Turlen in the days to come? Itâs also about time someone else ruled the country.ââ
Lawrence was instantly filled with shock and stared at Harvey in disbelief.
ââY-Youâre affiliated with His Majesty!ââ
Thereâs no doubt about it! Seeing Harvey say nothing to refute that, Lawrence sent the former out with a wave of a hand. He needed time to think.
The next day, Aaron stopped Vinson with tears in his eyes.
