NovelEnglishChapter 1719 Close Call
Soon, the king's majestic and magnificent palace was in sight. There were four guards at the gate, and Jolie could tell at a glance
that they were Eden's men.
Everyone walked up to the gate side by side. The guards bowed respectfully and said, "Queen, captain, Mr. Marsh."
Before Catherine could speak, Eden appeared out of nowhere and quickly walked over.
In the light that gradually intensified, Jennifer's gaze fell on this man. When she saw his build and his face, she couldn't help but
hold her breath!
"Queen," Eden greeted politely when he got close, his voice seeming devoid of emotion.
"Please go announce that we've cto visit the king today," Catherine said coolly but firmly. She disliked Eden immensely.
Jennifer drew in a subtle breath. Seemingly nonchalant, she reined in her gaze, but waves rose in her heart.
"I'm afraid not, Queen," Eden rejected directly, maintaining a professional demeanor. He bowed deeply again and said, "The king
made it very clear that day..."
Not far inside the palace, Claire had just cdownstairs. When she looked up, she caught the scene at the palace gate in one

Her heart thumped heavily!
Without thinking too much, she swiftly strode towards the king's bedchamber!
Soon, she arrived outside the bedchamber and anxiously turned the doorknob directly, only to find the door locked!
Panicked and anxious, she quickly glanced back. No one was coming.
But she couldn't ring the doorbell now, so she knocked on the door with the most appropriate force.
Heart racing, she kept knocking persistently while praying and chanting in her heart - open the door quickly!
Finally, the door opened, and her eyes met Rowan's!
Seeing her, Rowan seemed a little surprised.
Claire swiftly updated him about the situation outside, "Sister Jennifer is here with Mr. Marsh. They are being stopped by Eden
outside the palace gate, along with Catherine and Jolie."
After listening, Rowan's pupils instantly contracted. "I see." Then he closed the door.
Claire also felt somewhat relieved. She quietly moved away.
Soon after, Rowan opened the door again. "Uncle! Uncle!"
Those blocked outside the palace gate heard Rowan before seeing him.
Eden also turned his eyes upon hearing the shout. Soon, he saw Louis rushing out and heading over quickly. "Uncle!"
"What's the matter?" Eden asked in a low voice.
Seeing Catherine, Rowan seemed to breathe a sigh of relief again. The anxious look on his face also eased up a bit. "The queen is
here at just the right time. Father wants to see you. | was just about to ask uncle to call you."
Catherine was very surprised but soon extremely delighted.
The king finally remembered her! Then he must also remember Taylor!
After coming out, Rowan stood next to Eden and looked at Ivan's face. Somewhat happily, he said, "Perfect timing. No need to call
Mr. Marsh either. Father also wants to meet you, mainly to ask about the progress and plans for building the castle."
Then he shifted his gaze to Jennifer and looked between her and Ivan. "This is..." He looked puzzled, also noticing their interlocked

"My wife," lvan answered calmly.
"Mrs. Marsh, pleased to meet you," Rowan said to her. "Please cin too."
"I just arrived in Lu Layeka and heard the king was ill. | was going to csee how he's doing," Jennifer said with a smile. "May |
ask who you are...?" She had to play along seamlessly.
"Prince Louis," Rowan answered politely, amazed by her thoroughness.
If they didn't properly introduce themselves, and she called him Prince Louis later, wouldn't it seem like she had done her
homework before coming?
"Prince," Jennifer greeted him.
"Let's all go in. Don't keep Father waiting too long, he's very weak," Rowan said. Then he turned and strode away without bothering
about his uncle's mood.
Eden was stunned for a moment, rendered irrelevant?
Catherine looked at Eden smugly and contemptuously before striding inside arrogantly! Jolie followed closely behind.
