Chapter 1716 Jennifer Arrives at Lu Layeka
A flash of smugness went through Catherine's eyes, while Jolie remained expressionless. She was
worried sick. The king had already ordered that the throne be passed on to Prince Louis. If they didn't
think of something, this situation would be impossible to reverse.
Not only was Jolie ambitious, but she was also impatient.
"Mother! Mother!!"
The two women turned at the sound of the voice. Prince Taylor came in fuming. He directly tattled,
"Mother! This is the fifth time I've been rejected today! It was bad enough Eden wouldn't let me in, but
he didn't even agree to announce me! He must be up to something sinister!"
Catherine's brows furrowed as she heavily set down her teacup. "He wouldn't even announce you?
What is he playing at? Does he only recognize the heir now and not the second prince?"
And this heir hadn't even taken the throne yet but was already being so arrogant?
If he did take the throne, would there still be a place for her and her son in the royal family?
"I think Eden is up to no good!" Taylor accused. "He doesn't want Father to see me! But I'm his son too!
Why does Louis get to keep watch?"
"Simply outrageous!" Catherine stood up angrily.
"Your Majesty, please calm down first," Jolie advised in a low voice. "Eden is just a dog. It was the king
himself who ordered that he see no one."
"That was just the king's mood at the time! But what about now?" Catherine retorted. "If Eden had gone
to announce it, who can guarantee the king would have refused?"
Taylor was also very upset.
He had no interest in the throne, but his concern for his father's health was genuine. When he heard
the king had coughed up blood that day and his life was now on a countdown... Taylor had also
become restless.
These past few days, Taylor had been worried sick.
"Let's go. Forget him not announcing it. I'll take you to force your way in!" Catherine could no longer
contain her anger. As she spoke, she strode towards the door.
Before Jolie could stop her, a servant came in. "Your Majesty, Your Highness, Captain."
"What is it?" the woman stopped in her tracks, her eyes cold as she stared at him.
The servant reported, "Mrs. Marsh has arrived. Mr. Marsh just picked her up from the airport."
So soon?
Well, she would have to go greet them out of courtesy. So she would have to put off Taylor seeing his
father for now.
Catherine glanced coldly at her son. "You stay right here and don't make trouble! Just focus on your
studies if there's nothing else! And don't stir up any nonsense! If you do see your father, keep it brief!"
Taylor hung his head dejectedly. The more he thought about it, the more aggrieved he felt. How could
Mother be angry with him too?
"Let's go!" Catherine's gaze swept over Jolie's face before she strode off. Jolie followed close behind.
Ivan had just brought Jennifer to the palace. It was Jennifer's first time here, and even though she was
worldly, she was still awed by the mysterious castles.
All the buildings were historical relics made of stone, surrounded by green lawns and dense forests.
The countless rooms, even separated by stone walls, still evoked images of prosperity within. NôvelDrama.Org content rights.
Jennifer followed Ivan into the palace Catherine had prepared to host them. At first glance, she saw Da
Vinci's famous painting on the wall and was shocked.
"That's the original," Ivan pointed to another painting not far away. "That's Rembrandt, also an original."
"Wow..." She walked over to appreciate them, unable to hold back sounds of astonishment.
The palace hall was hundreds of square meters. Everywhere she looked was filled with medieval
furniture and decorations. It wasn't hard to imagine that every room here was like an art gallery.
"It'll start getting cold tomorrow. There'll be a big storm," Ivan came to her side and gently grasped her
shoulder. "I think this is a sign from above to help us."
"Mm," she turned to ask, "Do you know where he's staying?"
Before the couple could exchange a few more words, Catherine came rushing in with Jolie and a large
entourage. The hurried, chaotic footsteps made the two turn.
