Chapter 347
W–Welcome!” the waiter uttered in a somewhat awkward tone. Claudette
found the waiter’s behavior rather odd, but she still ordered some items from
the menu anyway. “Give me a set of chicken wings, a chicken chop, some
fries, and some wedges… Hmm, just give me one of each of these snacks,
okay? Also, I’d like a vanilla milkshake in the largest size!”
“Um…” The waiter hadn’t expected the gorgeous lady to have such a huge
appetite. “Wouldn’t that be too much for you alone, Miss? If you’d like to try
out a few dishes, we can combine them into one for you, so you don’t have to
order the full set. We can offer a mixture of various snacks in just one dish,” he
uttered out of kindness.
Claudette pointed her finger at Magnus as she beamed at the waiter. “It’s
fine. He’s rich, anyway!”
“A–Alright!” The waiter was taken aback for a moment. That wealthy man
won’t come over and beat me up for trying to be nice to his girlfriend now, will
he? The more the waiter thought about it, the more fearful he felt. He hurried
off to send the orders in. On the other hand, Claudette didn’t pay much
attention to Magnus–she simply lowered her head and scrolled through her
phone.
As for Magnus, he smiled without saying much. He simply stood behind
Claudette instead of sitting at the table with her. The princess may be
easygoing and approachable, but I am a high and mighty knight. I have no
intention of sitting on a chair that is accessible to the public; after all, I don’t
want to dirty my custom–made luxury wear.
“Are you planning to put on that front for the rest of your life, Mr. Magnus?
Aren’t you tired of it?” Claudette was blunt with her words, and she even
sounded sarcastic when she said that.
“Why would I be tired? One has to have enough determination to shape one’s
personality. Otherwise, everyone would just be a boring and regular person.
Wouldn’t that make the world a little less fun?” Magnus replied with a smile.
“You may enjoy your meal, Your Highness. I’ll carry out my duty as a knight to
protect you. I’ll also pay for you.”
The lady pursed her lips as she felt goosebumps forming on her skin. She was
worried that others would overhear their conversation and be weirded out by
them, so she figured that it was best if they stopped talking.
The milkshake store was extremely efficient. Before long, all of the dishes
were served to Claudette’s table. The people around them kept throwing
glances in their direction. The two weren’t just good–looking; they were also
dressed in a rather odd and puzzling manner.

Magnus continued to stand behind Claudette as if he were a statue. He
thought he was a dutiful knight, but little did he know that his action made
Claudette feel like a prisoner being watched while she ate.
Moments later, the lady decided to walk over to the table beside her. A few
men were sitting around and playing poker. “Are you guys playing poker?
Can I join you guys?” she asked.
What?! What’s going on? The few men were stunned! Never in their dreams
would they even think of courting a woman as gorgeous as Claudette, yet
she was the one who took the initiative to approach them.
They were just wondering if she had mistaken them for someone else when
she reached out her slender, strong legs and dragged a chair over to the
table.

She plopped down at their table and casually asked, “What happens if one of
