Right then, Grace and Dustin walked in together.
“Tristan…” Grace said.
Tristan stood up to greet them with a smile. “Long time no see, Grace.”
He then turned to Dustin and said, “I’m guessing this must be Logan. It’s been ten years. You’ve changed so much. I
almost couldn’t recognize you.”
“Greetings, Your Royal Highness.” Dustin bowed.
“There’s no need for such formalities. We’re cousins, after all.” Tristan immediately went and straightened Dustin’s
back.
“Come, have a seat. Just make yourself at home.”

“Thank you, Tristan.”
Dustin and Grace took a seat after thanking him.
“Logan, I’m sorry for ushering you here at this hour, but some things just cannot be delayed. I hope you
understand,” Tristan took the initiative to apologize, showing great courtesy.
“There’s no need to apologize, Prince Tristan.” Dustin smiled faintly. “It’s an honor to be a guest at your residence.”
Tristan was about to say something when he saw Grace beside him.
He said with a smile, “Grace, I have a batch of precious jewelry that recently arrived. Why don’t you head over and
have a look? Just pick anything that you like and take it with you.”
Grace glanced at Dustin before nodding. “Thank you for your generous offer, Tristan. I won’t be holding back then.”
Although she knew Tristan was intentionally diverting her attention, she couldn’t refuse.
“Milton, take Princess Grace to the treasury.” Tristan gestured.
“Princess Grace, please, follow me.” Milton bowed and led Grace away from the main hall.
After they left, Tristan poured Dustin a cup of tea. He then got straight to the point. “Logan, to be honest, I invited
you here at this hour to clear my doubts.
“Please continue, Prince Tristan.” Dustin kept his tone neutral.
“I heard that you met with Father earlier. Did he say anything to you?” Tristan probed.
“That’s right. His Majesty did indeed see me, and we discussed the matter of the successor,” Dustin replied
honestly.
Since Tristan had placed a mole in Galene Palace, he must have known what they talked about. His question was

“Oh? The successor?” Tristan raised an eyebrow. “Has Father made a decision?
“Not exactly.” Dustin shook his head. ” His Majesty said that all of you were outstanding individuals, and that made it
hard to decide. That was why he asked for my opinion on who was most suitable.”
“So, who do you think is most suitable between us?” Tristan asked meaningfully.
“I wouldn’t dare interfere in such an important national affair, Prince Tristan,” Dustin replied ambiguously.
“No worries, just share your thoughts.
You can speak freely. There’s no need to hold back.”
“I…” Dustin put on a troubled expression.
Tristan caught on immediately and clapped lightly. Soon, a beautiful attendant brought in a golden box.
Tristan received the box and placed it on the table before opening it slowly. A translucent white pearl lay inside the
box, emitting a soft radiance and a faint fragrance.
“Is this … the Celestial Eye?” Dustin’s eyes widened, betraying a look of shock.
