Chapter 63 

“Aurelia, why? I want a reason! I think you’re smart. So you should know what you will miss if you rejected me!” Jacob’s pupils shrank. His facial expression, which had been relaxed before, had gone completely solemn. 

He did not expect that when he offered it, Aurelia would refuse. 

In fact, Jacob had countless women, but Aurelia would be the first one that he really took the initiative to offer for her to be 

with him. 

He was so full of confidence and thought she would agree with it. However, she shook her head without hesitation. 

At that moment, Jacob suddenly felt unhappy and his ego was hurt. It was far more severe than when Aurelia directly rejected him in the private room. 

After all, if Aurelia refused the room key in the private room, Jacob would still be embarrassed. However, it was Marco who decided on his own accord, so Jacob could vent his anger at Marco. 

However, at that moment, in the shower room, Jacob personally offered Aurelia to be with him from now on. However, Aurelia did not even hesitate to reject his offer. Thus, Jacob could not vent his anger at anyone else. 

It would also mean that Aurelia had directly disrespected him. Neither Jacob’s ego nor his pride as the top wealthy scion in Nuthana would allow it. 

However, the woman who refused him was Aurelia. He would like to give her another chance to hesitate and change her mind. It was the reason why he was still standing there and looking at her at that moment. If she had been a different woman, Jacob would have left long ago. 

“I know, but I still have to say no. I’m very grateful for your appreciation, Mr. Miller. But that’s not the life I want, so I can only refuse your offer.” 

“The life that you want? What kind of life do you want? I’m not exaggerating here, but as long as you be with me, I have the power to give you the kind of life you want.” 

“I believe it! But I wouldn’t have gained it with my own effort.” 

“Aurelia, you look smart. Why do you say such foolish words? What did you mean by gaining it with your own effort? If you be with me, I can give you a lot of chances to succeed. You will be the one working on it, so it will mean that you gained it with your own effort. Do you understand?” 

“Mr. Miller, you’re right. But what about love? A relationship? Can you give it to me as well?” 

Aurelia did not avert her gaze as she asked the question sharply. The spark in her bright eyes made Jacob feel a little dazzled. 

“Love? Aurelia, why are you still pursuing this?”  Sᴇaʀ*ᴄh the Find ɴøᴠel.nᴇt website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

“Any woman will pursue it!” 

“I’m very satisfied with your body now. But after a long time, are you sure that I won’t love you?” 

When Aurelia heard that, she knew that Jacob had made a lot of compromises and concessions on the issues that she had mentioned. After all, if the scion wanted to sleep with any woman, he had never needed to promise to give the woman a relationship as well. 

However, it was not enough for Aurelia. Therefore, she looked at Jacob and shook her head again. 

“Mr. Miller, even though you might fall in love with me one day, what about a family? Can you also give it to me?” 

The way that Aurelia spoke indicated that she did not know when to stop and she was pushing her luck. Thus, her words completely irritated Jacob, and his voice suddenly became cold. 

“Aurelia, don’t you think your requests are too much?” 

He was the state governor’s son. It was already rare for him to promise to love her as much as possible and give her everything she wanted, whether it was fame or wealth.

Even if he were to view the situation from Aurelia’s perspective, he thought she was supposed to be grateful to him. However, he did not expect she wanted too much to the extent that she even wanted to get married. 

He thought, “I don’t even have a say in my marriage. But why does she think she can decide on my behalf?” 

Even though they were the descendants of prestigious families and might look glamorous and lead a glorious life, it would depend solely on the issue of whether their family and their backer had a solid foundation. 

Thus, from ancient times to the present, if political families wanted to establish a pact to shield each other, they must consider arranged marriage first. 

It was even more so in the Miller family. Since Edward Miller died, Damian’s support from the higher–ups had dwindled even 

more. 

If it had not been for the fact that Franklin of the Yeager family and Edward were in a close friendship, plus the fact that the Miller family and the Yeager family were already in–laws from decades ago, Damian’s position as the state governor of Nuthana might change after Edward’s death. Furthermore, his position would never be as stable as now. 

This was because it was completely inseparable from the support of the higher–ups. 

Even so, it was not easy for Damian to go further and be involved in the center of the top management. The Yeager family also had its own internally–decided heirs to train, so it was impossible to waste all the resources on outsiders. 

After all, they still remembered Edward’s help, which was why they helped to stabilize Damian in his position as the state governor of Nuthana. However, Jacob could not expect that they would keep giving resources to his family. 

Although the Miller family did not say anything about it now, Jacob did not need his family to inform him that his marriage had already been decided for him. 

The other family’s grandfather was also one of the few remaining people who had made great achievements. He was a big shot who would be given a state funeral once he died. The president and other officials from foreign countries would all mourn him and the news of his death would be reported by the journalists. 

For now, the Miller family could not afford to offend that kind of family. Even if the Miller family could offend them, Jacob’s view was that he would never give up the possibility of marrying a woman from a prestigious family for Aurelia. 

It was easy to get any type and amount of women as long as one had power in their hands. However, once he gave up the arranged marriage, not only could he not have Aurelia but he would not have the right to have women that were much worse than Aurelia. 

That was why Jacob felt so angry when he heard that Aurelia wanted to get married. He thought the woman was extremely greedy. 

Aurelia could feel his fury, hidden in the calmness he tried to maintain on the surface. 

She was also clear that not only a son of a state governor like Jacob, but even the son of a local’sheriff would marry within the 

same social class. 

Although Aurelia’s father, Michael, was also an official at the chief executive level, Damian was already a top–ranking official in charge of the top management. 

Moreover, she was divorced now. Even if she were a young single woman, it was impossible for her to marry Jacob with such a huge difference in their social class.
