Chapter 1602: Ivan's Unusual Status
Taylor cursed Rowan in his heart a thousand times-
On the surface, he didn't want to be a prince, deliberately disappearing for so many years, only to suddenly reappear when his
father's life was in danger.
He might have had continuous contact with Eden, just to catch them off guard!
Louis's appearance definitely caused trouble for their mother.
That's how Taylor thought. He clashed with Rowan in aura, and their personalities were completely different.
In Rowan's mind, he had already considered and ruled out the possibility of Taylor's involvement in their father's poisoning, based
on intuition.
But ruling out the suspicion of his son didn't mean he could rule out the suspicion of his mother.
It was very likely that Katharine was responsible for this, but she kept it from her own son, taking a great risk.

In Rowan's mind, he considered Katharine the prsuspect.
Lu Layuoka was a major diplomatic power, and currently, all kinds of institutions were particularly mature. Ivan's international
influence was evident, and he had good relationships with many royal families.
Therefore, the welcbanquet organized by Lu Layuoka for him was of high standard.
The royal family had a dedicated castle for hosting banquets, and tonight they would also invite high-ranking figures from the
political and business sectors, as well as important national leaders and nobles.
Everyone felt honored and excited to know that Ivan had cto the royal family.
Although he was married, many noble princesses still held him in high regard, dressing up carefully and attending the banquet,
fantasizing about a chance encounter.
As evening approached, the official reception banquet officially began.
Several luxury cars were parked in a row on the lawn outside the castle, and the beautiful sunset cast a golden glow on everything
in the world.
King Bertie, thanks to the special medicine he took, looked fairly well.
He was dressed in splendid attire and naturally attracted attention. Due to his health, many people hadn't seen the king for a long
time.
The king learned about Ivan's relationship with Louis and anticipated Ivan's purpose for this trip. He had to help his son and
himself.
To show his gratitude to Ivan, the king decided to attend.
At the stime, the king was also deeply moved. He arrived early at the banquet venue to personally inspect the food and
reception arrangements for tonight, communicating with the steward in charge of internal affairs, striving for perfection and not
embarrassing the royal family.
It was evident that the king attached great importance to this evening banquet.
Queen Katharine also attended in splendid attire. She looked like a queen stepping out of a fairy tale, her dazzling crown shining,
intimately linked arm in arm with the king, wearing an elegant smile. She always accompanied the king, as if she were the most
favored one.
In fact, she was already happy, and today she acted this way intentionally to show off to Rowan.

And when Rowan saw this scene, he couldn't help but feel uneasy, and his thoughts turned to his mother once again.
More than twenty years ago, his mother and father were also a couple, and his mother would attend events dressed up, always by
his father's side, making those around them envious.
Claire, as Ivan's sister, accompanied Ivan, and the five architects were also dressed in suits, each one exuding extraordinary
temperament.
Undoubtedly, they were the focus of attention tonight. Was this a gathering of young talents?
Many princesses and noble ladies were treated to a visual feast.
Violin melodies were performed on the scene, and even the napkins were folded into elegant shapes, with every detail exuding
elegance.
On the dining table, eight glasses were placed in front of each seat, filled with water, champagne, red wine, white wine, port wine...
Servants were stationed beside each seat, with the wine steward and waiters paying close attention, striving to serve every
distinguished guest present.
The food for tonight's dinner was exceptionally rich, and the dishes were exquisite, as beautiful as works of art.
Each dish was so beautiful that it captivated everyone's gaze. The process of serving the dishes was managed and coordinated by
a dedicated system. The scale of this event could be considered a royal banquet.
