Chapter 1595: Just a Cover

As the servant bowed and left, Rowan said to Claire, "Please come inand sit. There are some minor techniques and experience involved inraising flowers after all.” His tone was still cool and distant.

“I love gardenias. I couldn't grow them well at first either, but with timeand experience, I got the hang of it. Different varieties have differentsurvival rates."

The servant's footsteps faded away.

Claire looked at Rowan with a smile, her emotions alreadycomplicated...

Rowan turned and strode into the palace, feeling the same whirlwindinside.

Claire followed him in, gazing at his tall, straight back. Her heart achedfor him.

Was there no one trustworthy by his side in this deep palace?

Rowan halted in the middle of the hall and knitted his brows,displeased, worried for her, also puzzled how she had gotten in.

Most of all, he missed her and was trying to restrain himself...

Claire stopped a meter behind him. She knew he was angry.

In a soft voice she explained, "Ivan came, he's at the royal palace. Icame in with him. I wouldn't have come in otherwise.”

Rowan whipped around in shock and astonishment!

"He wanted me to understand your circumstances," Claire continued.Their eyes locked intensely. Rowan had no time to delay, so he told herdirectly, “I only grow flowers as a cover. Two-thirds are ornamentals,one-third medicinal herbs. My father was poisoned with a slow-actingtoxin, it's been going on for five years."

Since she came with Ivan, she must know of his identity already.

As he spoke, Rowan walked over to the table. Claire didn't know whathe was doing and just followed a few steps. She saw him pick up paperand pen.

He went on, “I have to stay and help him detox first. His organs havestarted failing. I still need to replace the culprit and root out the poison inthis royal house. So I won't be returning to Arkpool City for now. You alltake care of yourselves.”

"How can we help you?" Claire said softly. "I've been learning Arabiclately. Does that skill allow me to stay?"

She then told him about Queen Katharine asking the Marsh Group tobuild a castle park. How could she think of castle parks when the King'shealth was declining so badly? It made Rowan puzzled.

Claire added, "Ilvan's team will remain here, and can assist you whenneeded. He himself will come by often too."

Rowan nodded. With a few swift strokes he finished writing and foldedthe note to hand to Claire.

"What's this?" She did not look at it but slipped it directly into herpocket, lest anyone else see it.

"Give it to Jennifer,” Rowan said.

"Alright!" She knew it must be something very important.

Just then, someone entered. The person came over and bowedrespectfully, "Prince, the King wishes to see you."

"Very well, I'l go immediately.” Rowan's tranquil gaze settled on him.The man glanced between the two of them before retreating to thedoorway to wait, indicating Rowan and Claire's time was short.

“Is there a translation department in the palace?" Claire asked softly.She was determined to help him. “I know Arabic."

"There used to be one, I'm not sure now." A flash of inspiration hitRowan and he asked directly, “Are you willing to stay by my father'sside?"

Huh?

Claire was stunned. Rowan's tone was light but his eyes resolute. "Tohelp me replace the culprit.”

Stay by the King's side?

Like staying beside a tiger... The ordinary girl Claire couldn't help butfeel some trepidation, but still nodded, “I'm willing."

In truth, she wanted to stay by his side more.

Rowan did not tell her his plans, as he still needed to arrange things.Only once it was smooth sailing could he have her transferred over.Doing so directly would be too conspicuous.

"I have to go now,” Rowan told her. "Find Ivan, and be sure to give thenote to Jennifer."
