Chapter 2542
“But… I’m willing!”
Nathaniel gritted his teeth, his eyes burning with deep resentment.
He had been so close to success—why had his father stepped in now to ruin everything?
Had all the affection and favoritism over the years just been a show?
“My son, if you want to achieve great things, you must learn to be patient and not act impulsively,”
Jacqueline advised gently.
“One failure is nothing. Losing a treasure is even less important. As long as you’re safe, you’ll have more opportunities ahead. The Spanner family and I will always stand behind you.”
Nathaniel’s expression finally eased.
Even without the Dracan essences or the support of national destiny, he still had his mother, the Spanner family, and the network he had spent years building.
With these resources, he could still compete with Matthias and Tristan.
“What’s done is done. There’s no point dwelling on it,” Jacqueline continued.
“Dustin has a bright future ahead of him—he might even inherit the throne of King West Lucozia. Your father thinks highly of him. Even if he’s wronged you, for the greater good, you must pretend nothing happened. More than that—you need to show goodwill and win him over. A true crown prince knows how to be tolerant.”
Nathaniel took a deep breath to calm himself. Then he nodded firmly.
“Mother, I understand. Thank you for your guidance. I know what I need to do.”
