Chapter 1745: Will You Marry Louis?
Jolie hung her head, sighing inwardly, her expression blank as she followed along.
Ivan, with Jennifer, made their way to the palace, sheltered under a large black umbrella, holding his wife closely, surrounded by
several bodyguards.
Jennifer remained silent throughout the journey, her emotions hitting rock bottom, her thoughts adrift.
"My dear, | know you feel terrible, but you personally brought him to justice," Ivan comforted her. "Your master in heaven would be
pleased that you've captured the murderer."
"Why are there bad people in this world?" Jennifer felt a deep sorrow, a tearing pain in her heart, and an overwhelming sense of
oppression. "Can't we all live together harmoniously? Must we harm others to live well? Even if we achieve such a life, can we truly
be at peace?"
Ivan felt great pain for her. "People are different from one another, and human nature is most fragile. That's why we must protect

accompanied by sharpness, and we must not give any opportunity for the bad to take advantage."
Jennifer believed that the law would bring justice for everyone and bring peace to the departed. But letting Eden die like this was
too easy! A wretch like him should be subjected to the harshest punishment-thrown into boiling oil and subjected to a thousand
cuts! He specialized in poisons, and who knows how many people had perished by his hand.
In the palace of the king, Rowan and Claire supported him, guiding him into his chambers, where attendants and guards stood
respectfully, not daring to even breathe heavily.
After a round of thunder and lightning, the rain suddenly intensified, pouring down as if in a frenzy! Tonight was destined to be an
extraordinary night.
For Eden, who had lived for decades, he had never witnessed such a downpour as tonight's.
It was as if it foretold something, as if even the heavens were bidding him farewell, celebrating his departure.
He regretted his arrogance, his complacency, his lack of composure until the very end.
Within the king's extravagant and antiquated chambers, the intricate crystal chandeliers emitted dazzling light.
Rowan helped the king onto the bed, while Claire knelt down to help him remove his shoes, her movements gentle, as attentive as
a servant.
Simply because he was Rowan's father, she felt for him and respected him. This detail did not escape the notice of the father and
son, especially Rowan. He was deeply moved and quickly knelt down to remove the other shoe for his father.
Claire's gaze moved slowly from his distinct knuckles up to his handsprofile.
Rowan turned to look at her; their eyes met, and he smiled faintly.
Finally, in the presence of a third party, he could openly gaze at her with deep affection.
The girl smiled in response, feeling deeply touched at that moment. Finally, she had uncovered the culprit, fulfilling half of her
mission in Lu Layeka.

Then Rowan took Claire's hand, and they stood up together, fingers intertwined.
The king suddenly felt less weary. His loving gaze rested on their joined hands, then slowly lifted to the young couple standing
before him.
This was the first this son had publicly held the girl's hand in front of him, the first ttheir relationship had been brought to
light through action.
The king knew they were in love, though he had only heard it from his son.
"Claire," the king spoke with particular joy, his gaze fixed on the girl. He asked eagerly, "Are you willing to marry our Louis?"
This... was such a sudden question!
Claire had never anticipated this. She hesitated for a moment, feeling elated, but then she looked at the man beside her.
"Father," Rowan was resolute. He held the girl's hand tightly, meeting the king's gaze with a gentle tone and a firm attitude. "When
you have recovered, we would like to ask for your blessing to hold the wedding in Lu Layeka."
The king nodded, his eyes filled with warmth and approval.
