Don't Mess with the Girl with Candy novel Chapter 1947

"I don't care if your name is Rhodes or whatever..." the doctor muttered nervously, swallowing hard.

Two seconds later, her head snapped up, staring at Channing in absolute disbelief. "What did you say your name was?"

Lucian Rhodes?

If her memory served her right, the current Governor of Caelus was named Lucian Rhodes.

And you could count the number of people with the surname Rhodes in all of Caelus on one hand.

"Lucian Rhodes!"

Channing stepped forward and officially introduced himself. "Governor of Caelus. Also, Coralie Quill's boyfriend, and the father of the child she's carrying."

His original name was Channing Irving, a name given by his father.

But during the fierce succession battle for the Governor's seat, his grandfather had insisted he take on a new identity.

He gave him the name 'Lucian'.

Lucian: brilliant, radiant, and destined for greatness.

His grandfather wanted him to start a completely new chapter of his life.

"Huh???"

The doctor sat frozen, her phone dangling uselessly in her hand, completely forgetting to make the call.

The Governor of Caelus?

Was this a joke?

Surely this was just some arrogant impersonator!

"This is my personal identification." Channing produced his official ID, followed by his supreme government badge for Caelus. "If you still have doubts, I can take you for a quick stroll through the Central Command Center."

"No!"

The doctor aggressively shook her head, staring at Channing in pure, unadulterated shock. Her mind was utterly blank.

His aura, that effortless authority... it definitely didn't feel like an act.

Besides, nobody had a death wish big enough to impersonate the Governor!

Which meant...

The Governor of Caelus was actually standing in her office?!

"G-Governor!"

Snapping back to reality, the doctor bolted out of her chair, bowing in a panicked, terrified apology. "I am so sorry, just now I was..."

She cursed herself. What kind of reckless garbage had she just spewed at him?

If she angered the Governor, her life was basically over!

"I don't blame you."

Channing gave a polite nod, his tone surprisingly gentle. "Please, take a seat, Dr. Zigmund."

"Yes, sir!"
