Chapter 1752: Taylor's True Thoughts

Catherine gazed into his eyes as if she wanted to delve into the depths of his soul. After a moment of contemplation, she asked

earnestly, "Taylor, do you want to inherit the throne? Do you want to be king?"

Taylor, prepared for a weighty philosophical question, was taken aback by what followed.

"Taylor, don't overthink it, and don't worry about anyone else's feelings. I'm just asking about your inner thoughts. Do you want it?"

She wanted to have a good conversation with her son, to understand his truest thoughts. As she looked at him intently, the

message in her eyes was already clear- as long as Taylor wanted to be king, as a mother, she would do her utmost to help him.

Although conflicted within, a mother's dedication to her son always knows no bounds.

However, Taylor shook his head, showing not even a hint of interest in the throne. Since his mother had sincerely inquired, he

answered truthfully, "lI don't want to inherit the throne, nor do | want to rule the country. To me, these things are all just passing

clouds. | want to live a life without worries, without responsibilities, isn't that great?"

"Then do you have dreams? Ambitions?" Catherine worried that her son might becaimless. "Is there something that makes

you happy? Besides horseback riding and skiing, do you have desires?"

At his young age, could he already feel disillusioned?

"Yes," Taylor replied. The image of a girl flashed through his mind. He lifted his glass of milk again, and a faint smile crept onto his

lips. "If I could be with Claire, if she would agree to be my girlfriend, then every day, for me, would be sweet, wouldn't it?"

Upon hearing this, Catherine's heart skipped a beat. "She belongs to Louis, you know that. How can you still entertain such

thoughts?"

"Does liking someone disappear because of who they're with?" Taylor countered.

Then he added, "So is that still liking? It's like liking a certain drink, and when the store sells the last bottle to someone else, do you

no longer want it? Then how much did you really like that drink?"

In matters of the heart, Catherine found her son's logic quite hard to argue with.

So, as she ate her breakfast, she changed the subject. "You should focus on your studies, do something that would make your

father happy."

"Would making him a grandfather sooner count?" Taylor quipped, half in jest, half serious.

Catherine thought he was joking and didn't take his words to heart. She simply instructed, "Taylor, if you find a girlfriend, she must

cfrom a respectable family. A perfect match might be unlikely, given your royal status, but she must be well-educated and

dignified because once she marries into the family, she becomes a representation of the royal image-she'd be a princess."

As his mother spoke, Taylor silently ate his breakfast, but in his mind, Claire's delicate and charming visage flashed before him. He

had encountered numerous girls since middle school, but none had captured his attention like Claire. He longed to be with her and

spend his life by her side.

If Claire belonged to his father, Taylor wouldn't dare to act, harboring his love in silence, but now that she was with Louis, aside

from his affection for her, there was also a sense of challenge within him. He wanted to make a move, to vie for her!

In matters of love, it's all about one's capabilities!
