Chapter 497
She took out a handkerchief to gently wipe her lips, then said coolly, “Why are you crying? Such a small thing is not worth crying over. How pathetic p>
“Crying like this over a minor setback is not how May Denton’s niece should behave p>
“Auntie, Matthew doesn’t even notice me. He doesn’t even want to speak more than a word with me. Even if I deliberately get close to him and try to please him, it’s useless.” The thought of Matthew Saxon’s behavior made Alexis Denton both angry and aggrieved.
She had never been treated like this by any other man.
Those men had all bent over backward to please her, behaving like lapdogs, doing whatever she wanted except for Matthew p>
She really had a love-hate relationship with this man. She couldn’t wait to give up on him, yet she found it impossible not to like him.
May Denton chuckled softly, motioned for her to sit next to her, then took out a handkerchief to wipe the tear stains off her face, and sighed gently, “You child, why are you so impatient? Those who achieve great things don’t concern themselves with trivial matters. These things are nothing. I had long predicted his attitude. After all, you’re a member of the Denton Family. That brat always finds me displeasing and opposes me in everything. No matter how good you are, he will initially reject you p>
Alexis was startled and showed urgency on her face, “Then, what should I do p>
“Auntie, if he hates people from the Denton Family so much, doesn’t that mean anything I do is useless p>
“Why worry? Since Auntie brought you over, I have my ways. As much as he resists you, he’s still a normal man. While he might mentally resist, when faced with a beauty like you, his body might not be able to resist p>
Alexis looked at May with astonishment, blinking, “Auntie, you mean p>
May smiled, touched Alexis’s face, and softly said, “Alexis, if you can find a way to get pregnant with his child, all problems will be solved p>
“Although the old man indeed favors that girl named Leaf, no matter how much he likes her, he can’t like her more than his potential future grandchild, wouldn’t you agree p>
Under May Denton’s guidance, Alexis’s previous forlorn expression gradually turned into joy as she excitedly said, “Auntie, you’re right. As long as I can get pregnant with his child, I can gain status through the child and marry him p>
It was as if she could already see a bright and beautiful future, her eyes filled with dreamlike joy and longing.
“So what are you so worried about now? Everything is under our control. This matter will only succeed and must not fail. Never allow yourself to sob like this again; it doesn’t look proper.” May looked at Alexis, who quickly changed expressions under her few words, and let out a faint sigh in her heart.
Honestly, she wasn’t very satisfied with Alexis.
Her niece was undeniably beautiful, but not particularly smart, always tearing up over small matters, and far too impatient.
If the Denton Family had better candidates besides her, May wouldn’t have considered Alexis at all.
“But Auntie, didn’t you say Matthew is very attentive to that poor girl? What if she gets pregnant first? Then I won’t stand a chance at all.” Alexis wasn’t too foolish and realized a potential problem.
