Esme grew quiet when she heard those words but Aleister had different thoughts running amok in his head. 

Truth be told, both Esme and him knew that Jeremiah was up to no good. The moment she revealed that she had to keep pretending and had to go on with the marriage for the sake of his uncle, he joined the dots and knew that all of it had something to do with Jeremiah.

Aleister was just that greedy when it came to Esme. It did not matter whether it was real or a pretense with Esme, he wanted all that to belong to him.
