Chapter 472
Samantha was pissed, but all she could do was stomp her feet in frustration as she watched Matthew's retreating figure. Just then, her phone rang. It was a call from Matthew's mother, Gabriella.
"Mrs. Leon..."
Samantha sounded so aggrieved that Gabriella immediately noticed something off.
She asked, "Samantha, what's wrong? Didn't we agree that you'd go look for Matthew first?"
Samantha was choking up from tears. "Mrs. Leon, it's not like that... Matthew, he... left. He's completely ignoring me..."
Gabriella was immediately angered. "How could that be, Samantha? Tell me, is it because of Lucy?"
Although Lucy was not there, Samantha guessed that it was probably her because she was the only reason Matthew would be in such a rush to leave.
"I think so. Mrs. Leon... Matthew left me to find Lucy, and he didn't listen to a thing I said."
"Is he out of his mind?! Didn't you tell him to stay put and wait for me to arrive?" Gabriella raised her voice from fury, but there was also a hint of grievance in her tone that even she did not notice.
With a knack for comforting others, Samantha acted as the peacemaker in this situation. "Don't worry, Mrs. Leon... Matthew must have made plans with Lucy, so it's understandable for him to go look for her. I can't go against his wishes..."
While Gabriella wanted Samantha to keep Matthew around longer, her real motive was to have him spend more time with Samantha and less with that woman, Lucy.
Not only did Matthew refuse to listen, but he did the exact opposite, wasting Samantha's efforts.
How could Gabriella maintain her dignity like this?
Gabriella said to Samantha, "Don't be upset, Samantha. I'll be there soon. I'll make that stubborn boy, Matthew, come back."
Samantha was overjoyed to receive Gabriella's support and see her plan successfully unfold.
She had been so focused on finding Matthew upon her arrival that she was only now taking in the grandeur of Charleston's royal palace.Material © of NôvelDrama.Org.

Samantha had originally dismissed Lucy as an ordinary woman, but now, it seemed like Lucy was even more qualified than her to be with Matthew. She had lost her O advantage.
Samantha assumed that Matthew would eventually choose her because of her family background,
but it turned out that the deep roots of Lucy's family far surpassed hers. Content belongs to

Samantha suddenly found herself ashamed and at a loss.
What advantage did she have to compete with Lucy?
Fortunately, she still had Gabriella's support, so she reassured herself that she still had a chance.
Gabriella arrived fashionably late and made a grand entrance. Many recognized her because of her striking appearance.
Riding on Matthew's influence, Gabriella was also a prominent figure among the social elite. Her arrival naturally attracted attention.
