Chapter 268: Unexpected Ally Part 2
Paolo Santelmo—the man who made Nina a traitor. He was Nina’s sponsor at Golden Oak High School before she got married to Andrew Cross. He had a deep resentment toward the Wilson Clan and had his chance to take revenge with Nina’s help.
I looked at Jayden upon hearing about Paolo Santelmo. It was still quite a shock to us about the events that happened in the palace. I never wanted to hear the man’s name again because it would just remind us of Nina’s betrayal. And now I know that it was also one of the reasons for Jayden’s frequent switching of personality, I didn’t want anyone to mention about the Santelmo’s, the Rossi’s and even about Nina.
But when I looked at Jayden, he didn’t seem affected and he was calm and quiet.
"Paolo never asked Benjamin his true motive in approaching the princess. He believed that Benjamin was really in love with Catherine. She was indeed pretty and smart. When the two first met, Catherine was in a relationship with Matthew Forelli, your father." The man said while looking at me.
I already knew about the story of my parents and how they met Jayden’s parents. But there was some story that I didn’t know especially involving Jonathan Trekker.
"How is that related to my mother?" Jayden asked.
The real Benjamin looked at my husband and then continued. I knew he had more to say, but Jayden seemed to know all of it and wanted the details he didn’t know.
"When Princess Catherine ran away with Benjamin, he was happy at first, but it all changed when she started going out with different men. Benjamin also found out that she met with Matthew Forelli, which triggered him. Then he realized that the princess was still in love with your father. He found out she was pregnant with Matthew’s child, so Benjamin made a decision that changed all of their lives."
Jayden frowned. "Are you telling me that he ordered those men to kill my mother for revenge?"
The man sighed. "I could not see any other reason. Your parents were close friends of Matthew Forelli."
Jayden gritted his teeth. "You’re saying he killed my mother because his pride was crashed?"
