Chapter 689 Birthday Present (5)
Everyone was dumbfounded when they heard him.
Princess Lucy from the UK?
Who was that?
Everyone looked at Justin, wondering if the Hunts had already reached such a height that they could even get the
British royal family to visit in person and offer well-wishes to their children for their birthday?
One must know that the royal family did not easily establish good relations with wealthy families.
While everyone was marveling, someone asked, “Mr. Hunt, when did you make friends with the British royal
family?”
Justin, however, frowned. Unlike everyone else, the princess’ arrival did not make him nervous. Instead, he calmly
instructed the butler, “Everyone visiting is a guest. Show her in.”
“Yes, sir!”
The butler replied. Then, with his head down, he went out again.
After the butler left, Mrs. Livingstone looked at Cherry. “Which country is your grandaunt living in?”
Cherry tilted her head. “The UK!”
Mrs. Livingstone covered her mouth and laughed. “Oh my, would you look at that? Had you known that Mr. Hunt
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtwas acquainted with the British royal family, it would have been so impressive if you had gotten him to get the
princess to give you a gift instead!” In other words, she was implying that the Smiths had messed up.
Even if they wanted to give her the gem, they should have gotten someone with a high social status to give it to her
instead. Only then would it prove that Nora really was very impressive.
But as soon as she said that, Justin said, “I don’t know them.”
To be honest, he did.
However, the one he knew was not Princess Lucy but her mother instead-in other words, the Queen of the United
Kingdom!
But he clearly remembered that because he hadn’t sent the Queen an invitation because he wanted to keep the
party low-profile. Besides, the children’s fifth birthday was not a big occasion, either.
Could it be that the Queen-who was one fry short of a Happy Meal-had heard about his children’s birthday, so she
sent the little princess here to please him?
That was impossible, though… His identity shouldn’t have been exposed yet. While Justin was thinking about it with
a frown on his face, the butler had already led the distinguished guests in.
A little girl with blond hair and blue eyes walked in. She was fair-skinned, and her big eyes were bright and twinkling.
Her curly shoulder-length hair was spread out slightly behind her, and her formal dress cinching her waist made her
look slim and graceful.
Although she was only five, so her body hadn’t grown and developed yet, the princess looked just like a doll, and
was extraordinarily good-looking!
Behind the princess were a few bodyguards in professional attire. They scanned the surroundings vigilantly and
protected the princess.
After Lucy entered, her big eyes blinked and she looked around.
Although she was young, her every move carried an air of nobility and elegance.
Justin took a step forward and came up to Lucy. He asked the attendant next to her, “Why is the princess suddenly
visiting our humble abode?”
Princess Lucy was too young, so Justin couldn’t be bothered to greet the child.
Besides, since she was so young, her attendants would surely somewhat be able to speak on her behalf.
With a smile, the attendant replied, “Relax, Mr. Hunt. Her Highness merely heard that it’s her close friend’s
birthday, so she has come over to visit.”
As soon as he said that, Justin narrowed his eyes.
The people around them who had heard the attendant were also surprised.
The princess’… close friend’s birthday?
Everyone turned and looked at Cherry, Pete, and Xander once more.
So, which one of them was the princess’ friend?
Mrs. Livingstone didn’t hear the exchange, so she was still a little dazed. She was standing at the side and speaking

“You see that princess over there? There’s grace in her every action. Now, that’s self-confidence that only a good
family background can provide! What a shame that you didn’t grow up in a good environment. Even if you’re the
young lady of the Hunts, you still don’t have a bearing as outstanding as hers! I’m sure that just a few months ago,
you’d never even dared imagine that you would ever see a princess, right?”
Cherry: “?”
Everyone around them: “?”
Everyone looked at Mrs. Livingstone as though they were looking at a fool!
Mrs. Livingstone didn’t understand why everyone was staring at her. Instead, she continued speaking smugly. “What
are all of you looking at me like that for? Am I wrong? You don’t have the guts to say these things, but I do! And it
isn’t just Cherry but Ms. Smith, too. No matter what, it’s just not good to grow up in a family like that…” Seeing her
performing a one-man show over there, Cherry gave her a push and said, “Excuse me, granny, you are blocking
my way!”
Mrs. Livingstone, who had been pushed aside, stumbled to the side.
She looked over and censured Cherry furiously. “That’s so rude of you, Cherry. How can you treat your elders like
that? You should learn from Princess Lucy, take a gander at her deportment and manners! …”
She had only just spoken when she saw Cherry, with joy all over her face, lift her little skirt and run past her.
On the other side, Lucy had also finally found the little buddy she knew so well among the adults’ legs. Her eyes lit
up, and she also rushed over.
