Goodbye You Never Loved Me novel (Martha and Stefan) novel Chapter 424

Chapter 424 Desire to Conquer

The royal family, the queen dowager's bedchamber.

At this time, King Ducasse and the queen dowager were sitting at the table chatting.

The two talked about what happened at the palace banquet tonight.

The corners of King Ducasse's mouth curled slightly, and he said with a smile, "I think Martha is very good at the palace banquet tonight, what do you think, mother?"

The queen looked at her son and smiled, but the smile was not expressive.

The queen's full name was Catherine Hopper, and the power of her mother's family, the Hopper family, in Z Country should not be underestimated.

In Z Country, apart from the Lucas family, only the Hopper family was oriental.

The Lucas family was very prosperous in the past, and it was wealthy in the early days.

Only later, because Elsie escaped from marriage and did not marry into the royal family, the Lucas family began to decline slowly and became what it was today.

Afterwards, the Hopper family, who was a little inferior to the Lucas family, sent the daughter of the Hopper family, Catherine, to replace Elsie and become the concubine of the prince at that time.

It was also at that time that the status of the Hopper family made a qualitative leap, surpassing the Lucas family in one fell swoop to become the largest family in Z Country.

And the Lucas family started declining slowly until today.

Now that his son fell in love with the daughter of the Lucas family, Catherine reminisced about old memories.

As she watches her matured son show interest in someone else, Catherine felt content but disappointed that it happened to be Elsie's daughter.

Catherine clenched her hands tightly by her side, she lowered her eyes, and after thinking for a while, she asked with a smile, "Then what do you think of the other daughter of the Lucas family?"

King Ducasse was slightly taken aback when he heard this.

The color in his eyes darkened, and he thought about Daisy's appearance seriously, but unfortunately he didn't have much impression of her.

In fact, when his father was still alive, his father had already told him before - marrying the Lucas Family would be ideal given their century-old heritage; only through joining forces could Z Country prosper even more.

"King Ducasse, what are you thinking?"

Catherine waited for a long time but did not hear her son's answer, she frowned suspiciously, and looked at the other party with obvious worry in her eyes.

After King Ducasse came back to his senses, he smiled silently.

He listened to his mother just now, and tried to recall what kind of person Daisy, another daughter of the Lucas family, was, but the only person who remembered was Martha.

Martha was brave and decisive, and dared to argue at the palace banquet, and her rebuttals were unexpected.

In particular, after knowing that he had a crush on her, instead of being ecstatic like ordinary people, she rejected him coldly.

King Ducasse couldn't imagine what kind of person could refuse his marriage proposal, and he never thought that anyone would refuse him, and Martha was the first person.

His long and narrow golden eyes lit up, and the voice of a slight smile sounded in the room.

"I don't have any special impression of Daisy, and I only saw Martha at the palace banquet."
