Matthew had made his choice.

Lucy was the only person he wanted to grow old with and live the rest of his life with.

When Gabriella and Samantha refused to leave, Matthew decided to calm down and explain to them seriously, "You should understand better than I do why I decided to stay back in Charleston."

Gabriella knew the reason very well. Matthew had moved part of Leon Corporation's headquarters over to Charleston in order to avoid her.

It was his demonstration to her and to stop Gabriella from doing anything that crossed the line. If he continued this line of tactics, he might eventually move the entire company to Charleston to prevent Gabriella from restricting his actions. Gabriella knew that her son refused to listen to anything she had to say, so she directed her attack to Lucy.

"How could you allow something like this to happen? Matthew is my son, but he's siding with you instead."

Since Lucy's appearance, Gabriella had never liked her. Gabriella had never been fond of Lucy since the first day they met.

When there was a crack between Matthew and Gabriella's relationship, Gabriella pointed the blame to Lucy and refused to acknowledge any fault on her part.
