Chapter 1685: Catherine's Fear

Claire was not a romantic person. She simply fell deeply in love withsomeone and was willing to give up everything, even her own life, forhim.

“You look exhausted..." She gently held his face in her hands, noticingthe dullness in his complexion and the stubble on his chin.

She felt genuine heartache, her heart on the verge of breaking."Promise me that you'll take care of yourself, okay?" Claire looked athim with sadness, her crystalline tears rolling down once again.Rowan couldn't bear to see her cry. He gently cupped her face andlovingly kissed away the tears that welled up in her eyes.

Writers are naturally empathetic, kind-hearted, and always considerateof others. They are more sensitive than others and have a tenderexterior.

Sometimes they can feel upset for a long time just by seeing a catshedding fur...

Rowan's kiss gradually warmed Claire's body and also warmed hisheart.

Claire stood on her tiptoes and took the initiative to kiss his chin,kissing away the prickly stubble... and then his lips.

The two embraced and kissed each other once again, their heartsdrawing closer.

Meanwhile, in Catherine's palace, one of her subordinates approachedher and whispered something in her ear.

Catherine furrowed her brow upon hearing it, then waved her hand athim.

The subordinate bowed and turned to leave.

Jolie looked at her and asked, "Your Highness, what's wrong?"Catherine replied, "Mr. Marsh took Miss Claire to see Louis, and theyhaven't come out for twenty minutes."

Jolie pondered for a moment and guessed, “Could they be having tea?After all, the prince extended an invitation.”

Catherine thought to herself that if these twenty minutes wereextraordinary, then they must have a lot to discuss. This womanseemed inexplicably anxious.

"No, Mr. Marsh must not be swayed by Louis. Let's go and see forourselves!" Catherine couldn't contain her impatience and took quickstrides toward the door.

“Your Highness!" Jolie, the voice of reason, hurriedly caught up withher. "How will you explain your sudden visit? Going there without avalid reason will raise suspicions! How do you plan to handle it?"

"... " Catherine stopped in her tracks. Jolie had a point, but she felt adeep sense of discontent and wanted to see the situation for herself.She couldn't let Louis win over Mr. Marsh!

Jolie stood by her side and reminded her, "Your Highness, if you go,Prince Louis will suspect you of sending someone to spy on him. Giventhe current situation, it's better not to offend him."

"... " Catherine turned her gaze, feeling frustrated, and asked, "So whatshould we do now? Let them have a pleasant conversation? Louis mayseem like someone who only cares about superficial matters, but he isdefinitely not a fool.”

"I also think he is inscrutable,” Jolie pondered. "He's too calm."Catherine's eyes turned fierce, her tone icy. "In any case, the thronemust never fall into his hands."

“Let's go see the king now," Jolie suggested. "It's been a while sinceyou last visited."

The woman finally calmed her emotions a bit and let out a sigh. "Let'sgo." She took a step forward.

Jolie followed behind.

Meanwhile, in the king's palace.

The bedroom was incredibly spacious, with extravagant decorationsand gilded splendor everywhere.

Exquisite sculptures were displayed on the showcase, and theenormous oil paintings were all masterpieces.

On the grand bed, the king struggled to prop himself up, coughingviolently. Several servants attended to him anxiously.

He had just given an order not to call a doctor.

The servants could only support him, hold a handkerchief for him, andprovide a spittoon. Everyone was filled with anxiety.

"Cough... cough!" The king felt like his lungs were about to be coughedout. Veins bulged on his forehead, and even breathing became difficult.
